Job

Famous quotes containing the word job:

    Pray for me! I reckon if she knowed me she’d take a job that was more nearer her size. But I bet she done it, just the same—she was just the kind. She had the grit to pray for Judus if she took the notion.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    Where is the way where light dwelleth? and as for darkness, where
    is the place thereof,
    —Bible: Hebrew Job (l. XXXVIII, 19)

    He will deliver you from six troubles; in seven no harm shall touch you. In famine he will redeem you from death, and in war from the power of the sword. You shall be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, and shall not fear destruction when it comes. At destruction and famine you shall laugh, and shall not fear the wild animals of the earth. For you shall be in league with the stones of the field, and the wild animals shall be at peace with you.
    Bible: Hebrew, Job 5:19-23.
