Job 29:17-19

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁷ I broke the fangs of the unrighteous,
    and made him drop his prey from his teeth.
¹⁸ Then I thought, ‘I shall die in my nest,
    and I shall multiply my days as the sand,
¹⁹ my roots spread out to the waters,
    with the dew all night on my branches,
