King James Version with Apocrypha
"If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;"
— Job 8:5, King James Version with Apocrypha
“If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;”
“If thou wouldest seek diligently unto God, And make thy supplication to the Almighty; ”
“If you want to seek God diligently, make your supplication to the Almighty.”
“But if you will look to God, and make your supplication to the Almighty,”
“Yet if thou wilt arise early to God, and wilt beseech the Almighty:”
“If you will make search for God with care, and put your request before the Ruler of all;”
How long wilt thou speak these things? and how long shall the words of thy mouth be like a strong wind?
Doth God pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty pervert justice?
If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away for their transgression;
If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;
If thou wert pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.
Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.
For enquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:
