Job 34:30 Context
28So that they cause the cry of the poore to come vnto him, and he heareth the cry of the afflicted. 29When he giueth quietnesse, who then can make trouble? and when hee hideth his face, who then can beholde him? whether it be done against a nation, or against a man onely: 30That the hypocrite raigne not, lest the people be ensnared. 31Surely it is meete to be said vnto God, I haue borne chastisement, I will not offend any more. 32That which I see not, teach thou me; If I haue done iniquitie, I will doe no more.
