Job 29 · Grade 3
A Father to the Needy
Read the Story
Job said, Oh that I were as in the months of old, as in the days when God watched over me. God's lamp shone on his head, and the friendship of God was in his tent.
When Job went to the city gate, young men stepped back and old men stood up. Job said, I delivered the poor who cried, and the fatherless also, who had no one to help him. He caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.
Job said, I was eyes to the blind, and feet to the lame. I was a father to the needy. This shows that what the friends said about Job was not true.
