God's Power and Impartial Justice

Job 36:5-15

Behold, the mighty God casteth away none that is mighty and valiant of courage.

He mainteineth not the wicked, but he giueth iudgement to the afflicted.

He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous, but they are with Kings in ye throne, where he placeth them for euer: thus they are exalted.

And if they bee bound in fetters and tyed with the cordes of affliction,

Then will he shewe them their worke and their sinnes, because they haue bene proude.

He openeth also their eare to discipline, and commandeth them that they returne from iniquity.

If they obey and serue him, they shall end their dayes in prosperity, and their yeres in pleasures.

But if they wil not obey, they shall passe by the sworde, and perish without knowledge.

But the hypocrites of heart increase the wrath: for they call not when he bindeth them.

Their soule dyeth in youth, and their life among the whoremongers.

He deliuereth the poore in his affliction, and openeth their eare in trouble.
