Job 29:1-5 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

1. Job continued his discourse:

2. ‘How I long for the months gone by,for the days when God watched over me,

3. when his lamp shone on my headand by his light I walked through darkness!

4. Oh, for the days when I was in my prime,when God’s intimate friendship blessed my house,

5. when the Almighty was still with meand my children were around me,
