Job 33:27
_ _ he looketh God. Rather, with Umbreit, “Now he (the restored penitent) singeth joyfully (answering to “joy,” Job 33:26; Psalms 51:12) before men, and saith,” etc. (Proverbs 25:20; Psalms 66:16; Psalms 116:14).
_ _ perverted made the straight crooked: as Job had misrepresented God’s character.
_ _ profited literally, “was made even” to me; rather, “My punishment was not commensurate with my sin” (so Zophar, Job 11:6); the reverse of what Job heretofore said (Job 16:17; Psalms 103:10; Ezra 9:13). |

Job 7:20 I have sinned; what shall I do unto thee, O thou preserver of men? why hast thou set me as a mark against thee, so that I am a burden to myself? Numbers 12:11 And Aaron said unto Moses, Alas, my lord, I beseech thee, lay not the sin upon us, wherein we have done foolishly, and wherein we have sinned. 2 Samuel 12:13 And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And Nathan said unto David, The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die. Proverbs 28:13 He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh [them] shall have mercy. Jeremiah 3:13 Only acknowledge thine iniquity, that thou hast transgressed against the LORD thy God, and hast scattered thy ways to the strangers under every green tree, and ye have not obeyed my voice, saith the LORD. Jeremiah 31:18-19 I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself [thus]; Thou hast chastised me, and I was chastised, as a bullock unaccustomed [to the yoke]: turn thou me, and I shall be turned; for thou [art] the LORD my God. ... Surely after that I was turned, I repented; and after that I was instructed, I smote upon [my] thigh: I was ashamed, yea, even confounded, because I did bear the reproach of my youth. Luke 15:18-22 I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, ... But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put [it] on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on [his] feet: Luke 18:13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as [his] eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner. 1 John 1:8-10 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. ... If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

- I have sinned:
- etc.
Genesis 16:13 And she called the name of the LORD that spake unto her, Thou God seest me: for she said, Have I also here looked after him that seeth me? 2 Chronicles 16:9 For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of [them] whose heart [is] perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars. Psalms 11:4 The LORD [is] in his holy temple, the LORD'S throne [is] in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men. Psalms 14:2 The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, [and] seek God. Psalms 139:1-4 [[To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.]] O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known [me]. ... For [there is] not a word in my tongue, [but], lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether. Proverbs 5:21 For the ways of man [are] before the eyes of the LORD, and he pondereth all his goings. Proverbs 15:3 The eyes of the LORD [are] in every place, beholding the evil and the good. Jeremiah 23:24 Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the LORD.

Psalms 19:7-8 The law of the LORD [is] perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD [is] sure, making wise the simple. ... The statutes of the LORD [are] right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD [is] pure, enlightening the eyes. Psalms 119:128 Therefore I esteem all [thy] precepts [concerning] all [things to be] right; [and] I hate every false way. Romans 7:12-14 Wherefore the law [is] holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good. ... For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. Romans 7:16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that [it is] good. Romans 7:22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:

- it profited:
Job 34:9 For he hath said, It profiteth a man nothing that he should delight himself with God. Jeremiah 2:8 The priests said not, Where [is] the LORD? and they that handle the law knew me not: the pastors also transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and walked after [things that] do not profit. Matthew 16:26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? Romans 6:21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things [is] death.
