Job 12:14

⁷“To the angel of the assembly in Philadelphia write: “He who is holy, he who is true, he who has the key of David, he who opens and no one can shut, and who shuts and no one opens, says these things:

²²I will lay the key of David’s house on his shoulder. He will open, and no one will shut. He will shut, and no one will open.

¹⁰If he passes by, or confines, or convenes a court, then who can oppose him?

⁴Whereas Edom says, “We are beaten down, but we will return and build the waste places,” the LORD of Armies says, “They shall build, but I will throw down; and men will call them ‘The Wicked Land,’ even the people against whom the LORD shows wrath forever.”

¹¹God delivers me to the ungodly, and casts me into the hands of the wicked.

⁸Then Abishai said to David, “God has delivered up your enemy into your hand today. Now therefore please let me strike him with the spear to the earth at one stroke, and I will not strike him the second time.”

⁷He seals up the hand of every man, that all men whom he has made may know it.

⁵⁸The LORD of Armies says: “The wide walls of Babylon will be utterly overthrown. Her high gates will be burned with fire. The peoples will labor for vanity, and the nations for the fire; and they will be weary.”

¹²Behold, he snatches away. Who can hinder him? Who will ask him, ‘What are you doing?’ ¹³“God will not withdraw his anger. The helpers of Rahab stoop under him.

⁴⁶Today, the LORD will deliver you into my hand. I will strike you and take your head from off you. I will give the dead bodies of the army of the Philistines today to the birds of the sky and to the wild animals of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel,
