New King James Version

Job 29:23-25 New King James Version (NKJV)

23. They waited for me as for the rain,And they opened their mouth wide as for the spring rain.

24. If I mocked at them, they did not believe it,And the light of my countenance they did not cast down.

25. I chose the way for them, and sat as chief;So I dwelt as a king in the army,As one who comforts mourners.
