Job 29:1-5 New International Version (NIV)

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 head and 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 me and my children were around me,
