Job 29:14 in context

Job 29:11–17

11

For when the ear heard me, then it blessed me,

and when the eye saw me, it commended me,

12

because I delivered the poor who cried,

and the fatherless also, who had no one to help him,

13

the blessing of him who was ready to perish came on me,

and I caused the widow’s heart to sing for joy.

14
Selected verse

I put on righteousness, and it clothed me.

My justice was as a robe and a diadem.

15

I was eyes to the blind,

and feet to the lame.

16

I was a father to the needy.

I researched the cause of him whom I didn’t know.

17

I broke the jaws of the unrighteous

and plucked the prey out of his teeth.
