Job 29:15-19 New Century Version (NCV)

15. I was eyes for the blindand feet for the lame.

16. I was like a father to needy people,and I took the side of strangers who were in trouble.

17. I broke the fangs of evil peopleand snatched the captives from their teeth.

18. “I thought, ‘I will live for as many days as there are grains of sand,and I will die in my own house.

19. My roots will reach down to the water.The dew will lie on the branches all night.
