highlighted Job 30:11-16 ESV
Because God has loosed my cord and humbled me, they have cast off restraint in my presence. On my right hand the rabble rise; they push away my feet; they cast up against me their ways of destruction. They break up my path; they promote my calamity; they need no one to help them. As through a wide breach they come; amid the crash they roll on. Terrors are turned upon me; my honor is pursued as by the wind, and my prosperity has passed away like a cloud. "And now my soul is poured out within me; days of affliction have taken hold of me.

These are the generations of Shem. When Shem was 100 years old, he fathered Arpachshad two years after the flood.And Shem lived after he fathered Arpachshad 500 years and had other sons and daughters.When Arpachshad had lived 35 years, he fathered Shelah.And Arpachshad lived after he fathered Shelah 403 years and had other sons and daughters.When Shelah had lived 30 years, he fathered Eber.And Shelah lived after he fathered Eber 403 years and had other sons and daughters.When Eber had lived 34 years, he fathered Peleg.And Eber lived after he fathered Peleg 430 years and had other sons and daughters.When Peleg had lived 30 years, he fathered Reu.And Peleg lived after he fathered Reu 209 years and had other sons and daughters. Now the whole earth had one language and the same words.When Reu had lived 32 years, he fathered Serug.And Reu lived after he fathered Serug 207 years and had other sons and daughters.When Serug had lived 30 years, he fathered Nahor.And Serug lived after he fathered Nahor 200 years and had other sons and daughters.When Nahor had lived 29 years, he fathered Terah.And Nahor lived after he fathered Terah 119 years and had other sons and daughters.When Terah had lived 70 years, he fathered Abram, Nahor, and Haran.Now these are the generations of Terah. Terah fathered Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran fathered Lot.Haran died in the presence of his father Terah in the land of his kindred, in Ur of the Chaldeans.And Abram and Nahor took wives. The name of Abram's wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor's wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran the father of Milcah and Iscah.And as people migrated from the east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar and settled there.Now Sarai was barren; she had no child.Terah took Abram his son and Lot the son of Haran, his grandson, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram's wife, and they went forth together from Ur of the Chaldeans to go into the land of Canaan, but when they came to Haran, they settled there.The days of Terah were 205 years, and Terah died in Haran. And they said to one another, "Come, let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly." And they had brick for stone, and bitumen for mortar.Then they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be dispersed over the face of the whole earth."And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of man had built.And the Lord said, "Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language, and this is only the beginning of what they will do. And nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them.Come, let us go down and there confuse their language, so that they may not understand one another's speech."So the Lord dispersed them from there over the face of all the earth, and they left off building the city.Therefore its name was called Babel, because there the Lord confused the language of all the earth. And from there the Lord dispersed them over the face of all the earth.

The beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.From that land he went into Assyria and built Nineveh, Rehoboth-Ir, Calah, andResen between Nineveh and Calah; that is the great city.Egypt fathered Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim,Pathrusim, Casluhim (from whom the Philistines came), and Caphtorim.Canaan fathered Sidon his firstborn and Heth,and the Jebusites, the Amorites, the Girgashites,the Hivites, the Arkites, the Sinites,the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the Hamathites. Afterward the clans of the Canaanites dispersed.And the territory of the Canaanites extended from Sidon in the direction of Gerar as far as Gaza, and in the direction of Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha.These are the sons of Ham, by their clans, their languages, their lands, and their nations.To Shem also, the father of all the children of Eber, the elder brother of Japheth, children were born.The sons of Shem: Elam, Asshur, Arpachshad, Lud, and Aram.The sons of Aram: Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.Arpachshad fathered Shelah; and Shelah fathered Eber.To Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided, and his brother's name was Joktan.Joktan fathered Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah,Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,Obal, Abimael, Sheba,Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab; all these were the sons of Joktan.The sons of Japheth: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.The territory in which they lived extended from Mesha in the direction of Sephar to the hill country of the east.These are the sons of Shem, by their clans, their languages, their lands, and their nations.These are the clans of the sons of Noah, according to their genealogies, in their nations, and from these the nations spread abroad on the earth after the flood. The sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.The sons of Javan: Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.From these the coastland peoples spread in their lands, each with his own language, by their clans, in their nations.The sons of Ham: Cush, Egypt, Put, and Canaan.The sons of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. The sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan.Cush fathered Nimrod; he was the first on earth to be a mighty man.He was a mighty hunter before the Lord. Therefore it is said, "Like Nimrod a mighty hunter before the Lord."

and with every living creature that is with you, the birds, the livestock, and every beast of the earth with you, as many as came out of the ark; it is for every beast of the earth.I establish my covenant with you, that never again shall all flesh be cut off by the waters of the flood, and never again shall there be a flood to destroy the earth."And God said, "This is the sign of the covenant that I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations:I have set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth.When I bring clouds over the earth and the bow is seen in the clouds,I will remember my covenant that is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh. And the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.When the bow is in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth."God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant that I have established between me and all flesh that is on the earth."The sons of Noah who went forth from the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. (Ham was the father of Canaan.)These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the people of the whole earth were dispersed.Noah began to be a man of the soil, and he planted a vineyard.He drank of the wine and became drunk and lay uncovered in his tent.And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father and told his two brothers outside.Then Shem and Japheth took a garment, laid it on both their shoulders, and walked backward and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were turned backward, and they did not see their father's nakedness.When Noah awoke from his wine and knew what his youngest son had done to him,he said, "Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be to his brothers." He also said, "Blessed be the Lord, the God of Shem; and let Canaan be his servant. May God enlarge Japheth, and let him dwell in the tents of Shem, and let Canaan be his servant." After the flood Noah lived 350 years.All the days of Noah were 950 years, and he died. The fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth and upon every bird of the heavens, upon everything that creeps on the ground and all the fish of the sea. Into your hand they are delivered.Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. And as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything.But you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood.And for your lifeblood I will require a reckoning: from every beast I will require it and from man. From his fellow man I will require a reckoning for the life of man. "Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed, for God made man in his own image. And you, be fruitful and multiply, increase greatly on the earth and multiply in it."Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him,"Behold, I establish my covenant with you and your offspring after you,

He waited another seven days, and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark.And the dove came back to him in the evening, and behold, in her mouth was a freshly plucked olive leaf. So Noah knew that the waters had subsided from the earth.Then he waited another seven days and sent forth the dove, and she did not return to him anymore.In the six hundred and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried from off the earth. And Noah removed the covering of the ark and looked, and behold, the face of the ground was dry.In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth had dried out.Then God said to Noah,"Go out from the ark, you and your wife, and your sons and your sons' wives with you.Bring out with you every living thing that is with you of all flesh—birds and animals and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth—that they may swarm on the earth, and be fruitful and multiply on the earth."So Noah went out, and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives with him.Every beast, every creeping thing, and every bird, everything that moves on the earth, went out by families from the ark. But God remembered Noah and all the beasts and all the livestock that were with him in the ark. And God made a wind blow over the earth, and the waters subsided.Then Noah built an altar to the Lord and took some of every clean animal and some of every clean bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar.And when the Lord smelled the pleasing aroma, the Lord said in his heart, "I will never again curse the ground because of man, for the intention of man's heart is evil from his youth. Neither will I ever again strike down every living creature as I have done.While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease." The fountains of the deep and the windows of the heavens were closed, the rain from the heavens was restrained,and the waters receded from the earth continually. At the end of 150 days the waters had abated,and in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.And the waters continued to abate until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.At the end of forty days Noah opened the window of the ark that he had madeand sent forth a raven. It went to and fro until the waters were dried up from the earth.Then he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters had subsided from the face of the ground.But the dove found no place to set her foot, and she returned to him to the ark, for the waters were still on the face of the whole earth. So he put out his hand and took her and brought her into the ark with him.

If you faint in the day of adversity, your strength is small. Rescue those who are being taken away to death; hold back those who are stumbling to the slaughter. If you say, "Behold, we did not know this," does not he who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who keeps watch over your soul know it, and will he not repay man according to his work? My son, eat honey, for it is good, and the drippings of the honeycomb are sweet to your taste. Know that wisdom is such to your soul; if you find it, there will be a future, and your hope will not be cut off. Lie not in wait as a wicked man against the dwelling of the righteous; do no violence to his home; for the righteous falls seven times and rises again, but the wicked stumble in times of calamity. Do not rejoice when your enemy falls, and let not your heart be glad when he stumbles, lest the Lord see it and be displeased, and turn away his anger from him. Fret not yourself because of evildoers, and be not envious of the wicked, Be not envious of evil men, nor desire to be with them, for the evil man has no future; the lamp of the wicked will be put out. My son, fear the Lord and the king, and do not join with those who do otherwise, for disaster will arise suddenly from them, and who knows the ruin that will come from them both? These also are sayings of the wise. Partiality in judging is not good. Whoever says to the wicked, "You are in the right," will be cursed by peoples, abhorred by nations, but those who rebuke the wicked will have delight, and a good blessing will come upon them. Whoever gives an honest answer kisses the lips. Prepare your work outside; get everything ready for yourself in the field, and after that build your house. Be not a witness against your neighbor without cause, and do not deceive with your lips. Do not say, "I will do to him as he has done to me; I will pay the man back for what he has done." for their hearts devise violence, and their lips talk of trouble. I passed by the field of a sluggard, by the vineyard of a man lacking sense, and behold, it was all overgrown with thorns; the ground was covered with nettles, and its stone wall was broken down. Then I saw and considered it; I looked and received instruction. A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest, and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and want like an armed man. By wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established; by knowledge the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches. A wise man is full of strength, and a man of knowledge enhances his might, for by wise guidance you can wage your war, and in abundance of counselors there is victory. Wisdom is too high for a fool; in the gate he does not open his mouth. Whoever plans to do evil will be called a schemer. The devising of folly is sin, and the scoffer is an abomination to mankind.
