Job 30:20

Then they will call on me, but I will not answer. They will seek me diligently, but they will not find me;

When you spread out your hands, I will hide my eyes from you. Yes, when you make many prayers, I will not hear. Your hands are full of blood.

When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt offering and meal offering, I will not accept them; but I will consume them by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence.”

Then they will cry to Yahweh, but he will not answer them. Yes, he will hide his face from them at that time, because they made their deeds evil.”

“Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard. I cry for help, but there is no justice.

They cried, but there was no one to save; even to Yahweh, but he didn’t answer them.

Yahweh is far from the wicked, but he hears the prayer of the righteous.

Won’t God avenge his chosen ones who are crying out to him day and night, and yet he exercises patience with them?

My tears have been my food day and night, while they continually ask me, “Where is your God?”

If I cherished sin in my heart, the Lord wouldn’t have listened.

Yahweh, the God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before you.

Clouds and darkness are around him. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.

Therefore Yahweh says, ‘Behold, I will bring evil on them, which they will not be able to escape; and they will cry to me, but I will not listen to them.

Therefore I will also deal in wrath. My eye won’t spare, neither will I have pity. Though they cry in my ears with a loud voice, yet I will not hear them.”

It has come to pass that, as he called, and they refused to listen, so they will call, and I will not listen,” said Yahweh of Armies;

Will God hear his cry when trouble comes on him?

I will bless Yahweh, who has given me counsel. Yes, my heart instructs me in the night seasons.

My God, I cry in the daytime, but you don’t answer; in the night season, and am not silent.

Hear my prayer, Yahweh! Let my cry come to you.

When he is judged, let him come out guilty. Let his prayer be turned into sin.

He who turns away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer is an abomination.

Then Yahweh said to me, “Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind would not turn toward this people. Cast them out of my sight, and let them go out!

Yes, when I cry, and call for help, he shuts out my prayer.

You have covered yourself with a cloud, so that no prayer can pass through.

They will go with their flocks and with their herds to seek Yahweh; but they won’t find him. He has withdrawn himself from them.

They haven’t cried to me with their heart, but they howl on their beds. They assemble themselves for grain and new wine. They turn away from me.

When evening had come, his disciples came to him, saying, “This place is deserted, and the hour is already late. Send the multitudes away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves food.”

But he answered her not a word. His disciples came and begged him, saying, “Send her away; for she cries after us.”

Send them away, that they may go into the surrounding country and villages, and buy themselves bread, for they have nothing to eat.”

The day began to wear away; and the twelve came and said to him, “Send the multitude away, that they may go into the surrounding villages and farms, and lodge, and get food, for we are here in a deserted place.”

When once the master of the house has risen up, and has shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us!’ then he will answer and tell you, ‘I don’t know you or where you come from.’

They said this testing him, that they might have something to accuse him of. But Jesus stooped down and wrote on the ground with his finger.

We know that God doesn’t listen to sinners, but if anyone is a worshiper of God, and does his will, he listens to him.

But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.

You ask, and don’t receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures.

You shall remember all the way which Yahweh your God has led you these forty years in the wilderness, that he might humble you, to test you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep his commandments or not.

You will cry out in that day because of your king whom you will have chosen for yourselves; and Yahweh will not answer you in that day.”

They looked, but there was no one to save; even to Yahweh, but he didn’t answer them.

When she came to the man of God to the hill, she caught hold of his feet. Gehazi came near to thrust her away; but the man of God said, “Leave her alone; for her soul is troubled within her; and Yahweh has hidden it from me, and has not told me.”

I am not at ease, neither am I quiet, neither have I rest; but trouble comes.”

Does God pervert justice? Or does the Almighty pervert righteousness?

For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, that we should come together in judgment.

“Earth, don’t cover my blood. Let my cry have no place to rest.

that he would maintain the right of a man with God, of a son of man with his neighbor!

In the night season my bones are pierced in me, and the pains that gnaw me take no rest.

“However doesn’t one stretch out a hand in his fall? Or in his calamity therefore cry for help?

I go mourning without the sun. I stand up in the assembly, and cry for help.

oh that I had one to hear me! Behold, here is my signature! Let the Almighty answer me! Let the accuser write my indictment!

Surely God will not hear an empty cry, neither will the Almighty regard it.

How much less when you say you don’t see him. The cause is before him, and you wait for him!

When I kept silence, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long.

Listen to my prayer, God. Don’t hide yourself from my supplication.

Yahweh God of Armies, how long will you be angry against the prayer of your people?

Let my prayer enter into your presence. Turn your ear to my cry.

He has responded to the prayer of the destitute, and has not despised their prayer.

I opened to my beloved; but my beloved left, and had gone away. My heart went out when he spoke. I looked for him, but I didn’t find him. I called him, but he didn’t answer.

For as often as I speak, I cry out; I cry, “Violence and destruction!” because Yahweh’s word has been made a reproach to me, and a derision, all day.

Yes, though you offer me your burnt offerings and meal offerings, I will not accept them; neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat animals.

Yahweh, how long will I cry, and you will not hear? I cry out to you “Violence!” and will you not save?

The multitude rebuked them, telling them that they should be quiet, but they cried out even more, “Lord, have mercy on us, you son of David!”

He left them again, went away, and prayed a third time, saying the same words.

He himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion, and they woke him up, and told him, “Teacher, don’t you care that we are dying?”

In these days, he went out to the mountain to pray, and he continued all night in prayer to God.

For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.

night and day praying exceedingly that we may see your face, and may perfect that which is lacking in your faith?

I thank God, whom I serve as my forefathers did, with a pure conscience. How unceasing is my memory of you in my petitions, night and day

I saw a mighty angel coming down out of the sky, clothed with a cloud. A rainbow was on his head. His face was like the sun, and his feet like pillars of fire.

The temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power. No one was able to enter into the temple until the seven plagues of the seven angels would be finished.
