Job 29:18 BBE

¹⁶  I was a father to the poor, searching out the cause of him who was strange to me.

¹⁷  By me the great teeth of the evil-doer were broken, and I made him give up what he had violently taken away.

¹⁸  Then I said, I will come to my end with my children round me, my days will be as the sand in number;

¹⁹  My root will be open to the waters, and the night mist will be on my branches,

²⁰  My glory will be ever new, and my bow will be readily bent in my hand.
