SCRIPTURE

"Be ye afraid of the sword: For wrath [bringeth] the punishments of the sword, That ye may know there is a judgment." — Job 19:29 (ASV)

Now Job carries the war into the enemy's camp; and he says, "You charge me with all sorts of sin, and yet you cannot deny that the root of the matter is in me. Would it not be much wiser for you to be afraid yourselves, for fear that God should cut you off for falsely accusing me and slandering me in the time of my sorrow?" There, we may confidently leave Job, for the man who can truly say what he has said about his Redeemer will come out all right in the end.
