Job 22:22-30 New English Translation (NET)

22. Accept instruction from his mouthand store up his words in your heart.

23. If you return to the Almighty, you will be built up;if you remove wicked behavior far from your tent,

24. and throw your gold in the dust – your gold of Ophir among the rocks in the ravines –

25. then the Almighty himself will be your gold,and the choicest silver for you.

26. Surely then you will delight yourself in the Almighty,and will lift up your face toward God.

27. You will pray to him and he will hear you,and you will fulfill your vows to him.

28. Whatever you decide on a matter,it will be established for you,and light will shine on your ways.

29. When people are brought low and you say‘Lift them up!’then he will save the downcast;

30. he will deliver even someone who is not innocent,who will escape through the cleanness of your hands.”
