"If they are bound in fetters, and are taken in the cords of afflictions,"
— Job 36:8, World English Bible
“And if they be bound in fetters, and be holden in cords of affliction;”
“And if they be bound in fetters, And be taken in the cords of affliction; ”
“But if they are bound in chains, and held captive by the cords of affliction,”
“And if they shall be in chains, and be bound with the cords of poverty:”
“And if they have been prisoned in chains, and taken in cords of trouble,”
“And if they be bound in fetters, and be holden in cords of affliction;”
"Behold, God is mighty, and doesn't despise anyone. He is mighty in strength of understanding.
He doesn't preserve the life of the wicked, but gives to the afflicted their right.
He doesn't withdraw his eyes from the righteous, but with kings on the throne, he sets them forever, and they are exalted.
If they are bound in fetters, and are taken in the cords of afflictions,
then he shows them their work, and their transgressions, that they have behaved themselves proudly.
He also opens their ears to instruction, and commands that they return from iniquity.
If they listen and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.
