King James Version (KJV)

Job 8:6

“If thou [wert] pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.”

Verse in context — Job 8

If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away for their transgression;

If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;

If thou [wert] pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.

Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.

For enquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:

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