Like a 5th grade ‘compare and contrast’ essay, Job juxtaposes the wicked man from the righteous:

You demanded security from your relatives for no reason; you stripped people of their clothing, leaving them naked.

You gave no water to the weary and you withheld food from the hungry, though you were a powerful man, owning land— an honored man, living on it.

And you sent widows away empty-handed and broke the strength of the fatherless.

That is why snares are all around you, why sudden peril terrifies you, why it is so dark you cannot see, and why a flood of water covers you.”
‭‭Job‬ ‭22‬:‭5‬-‭11‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Reflecting on the life he’d lived:

Whoever heard me spoke well of me, and those who saw me commended me, because I rescued the poor who cried for help, and the fatherless who had none to assist them.

The one who was dying blessed me; I made the widow’s heart sing.

I put on righteousness as my clothing; justice was my robe and my turban.

I was eyes to the blind and feet to the lame. I was a father to the needy; I took up the case of the stranger.

I broke the fangs of the wicked and snatched the victims from their teeth.”
‭‭Job‬ ‭29‬:‭11‬-‭17‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Over 30 chapters of Job are devoted to a dialogue between Job and his friends about God’s judgment and God’s righteous omnipotence.

When your own circumstances seem like a godless doldrum, this is a good read.

If not perspective, it will provide you humility, patience and the power to persevere and endure during tests and hard times.
