Is it good that he should search you out? or as one man mocks another, do you so mock him?
With him is strength and wisdom: the deceived and the deceiver are his.
But man dies, and wastes away: yea, man gives up the ghost, and where is he?
Are there not mockers with me? and does not my eye continue to see during their provocation?
My desire is that Job may be tried to the end because of his answers for wicked men.
Search me, O God, and know my heart: examine me, and know my thoughts:
Shall not God search this out? for he knows the secrets of the heart.
Now therefore do not be mockers, so that your bonds are not made strong: for I have heard from the Lord GOD of hosts a destruction, even determined upon the whole earth.
I the LORD search the heart, I examine the thoughts, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
