Job 27:8
King James VersionSource notes
“For what the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul?”
Context
5God forbid that I should justify you: till I die I will not remove mine integrity from me.
6My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach so long as I live.
7Let mine enemy be as the wicked, and he that riseth up against me as the unrighteous.
8For what the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul?
9Will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him?
10Will he delight himself in the Almighty? will he always call upon God?
11I will teach you by the hand of God: which with the Almighty will I not conceal.
