King James Version (KJV)

Job 36:9

“Then he sheweth them their work, and their transgressions that they have exceeded.”

Verse in context — Job 36

He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous: but with kings [are they] on the throne; yea, he doth establish them for ever, and they are exalted.

And if [they be] bound in fetters, [and] be holden in cords of affliction;

Then he sheweth them their work, and their transgressions that they have exceeded.

He openeth also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity.

If they obey and serve [him], they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.

A poetic exploration of suffering, faith, and God’s sovereignty.
