18:005:022 At destruction and famine thou shalt laugh:  neither shalt thou
           be afraid of the beasts of the earth.

18:005:023 For thou shalt be in league with the stones of the field:  and
           the beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee.

18:005:024 And thou shalt know that thy tabernacle shall be in peace; and
           thou shalt visit thy habitation, and shalt not sin.

18:005:025 Thou shalt know also that thy seed shall be great, and thine
           offspring as the grass of the earth.

18:005:026 Thou shalt come to thy grave in a full age, like as a shock of
           corn cometh in in his season.

18:005:027 Lo this, we have searched it, so it is; hear it, and know thou
           it for thy good.

18:006:001 But Job answered and said,

18:006:002 Oh that my grief were throughly weighed, and my calamity laid
           in the balances together!

18:006:003 For now it would be heavier than the sand of the sea: 
           therefore my words are swallowed up.

18:006:004 For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the poison
           whereof drinketh up my spirit:  the terrors of God do set
           themselves in array against me.

18:006:005 Doth the wild ass bray when he hath grass? or loweth the ox
           over his fodder?

18:006:006 Can that which is unsavoury be eaten without salt? or is there
           any taste in the white of an egg?

18:006:007 The things that my soul refused to touch are as my sorrowful
           meat.

18:006:008 Oh that I might have my request; and that God would grant me
           the thing that I long for!

18:006:009 Even that it would please God to destroy me; that he would let
           loose his hand, and cut me off!

18:006:010 Then should I yet have comfort; yea, I would harden myself in
           sorrow:  let him not spare; for I have not concealed the words
           of the Holy One.

18:006:011 What is my strength, that I should hope? and what is mine end,
           that I should prolong my life?

18:006:012 Is my strength the strength of stones? or is my flesh of
           brass?

18:006:013 Is not my help in me? and is wisdom driven quite from me?

18:006:014 To him that is afflicted pity should be shewed from his
           friend; but he forsaketh the fear of the Almighty.

18:006:015 My brethren have dealt deceitfully as a brook, and as the
           stream of brooks they pass away;

18:006:016 Which are blackish by reason of the ice, and wherein the snow
           is hid: 

18:006:017 What time they wax warm, they vanish:  when it is hot, they are
           consumed out of their place.

18:006:018 The paths of their way are turned aside; they go to nothing,
           and perish.
