Job 29:7-17

7 When I went out to (A)the gate of the city,
when I prepared my seat in the square,
8 the young men saw me and withdrew,
and the aged rose and stood;
9 the princes refrained from talking
and (B)laid their hand on their mouth;
10 the voice of the nobles was hushed,
and their (C)tongue stuck to the roof of their mouth.
11 When the ear heard, it called me blessed,
and when the eye saw, it approved,
12 because I (D)delivered the poor who cried for help,
and the fatherless who had none to help him.
13 (E)The blessing of him who was (F)about to perish came upon me,
and I caused (G)the widow's heart to sing for joy.
14 I (H)put on righteousness, and it clothed me;
my justice was like a robe and (I)a turban.
15 I was (J)eyes to the blind
and feet to the lame.
16 I was a father to the needy,
and I searched out (K)the cause of him whom I did not know.
17 I (L)broke (M)the fangs of the unrighteous
and made him drop his prey from his teeth.
