Read in context

Job 29:11–15 · Berean Standard Bible

11 For those who heard me called me blessed, and those who saw me commended me,

12 because I rescued the poor who cried out and the fatherless who had no helper.

13 The dying man blessed me, and I made the widow’s heart sing for joy.

14 I put on righteousness, and it clothed me; justice was my robe and my turban.

15 I served as eyes to the blind and as feet to the lame.
