Job 29:18-20

International Children’s Bible

¹⁸ “I thought, ‘I will live for as many days as there are grains of sand.
    And I will die in my own house.
¹⁹ I will be like a tree whose roots reach down to the water.
    The dew will lie on the branches all night.
²⁰ New honors will come to me continually.
    I will always have great strength.’
