| Job 4:1 |
|
Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said, |
|
|
|
|
| Job 4:2 |
|
If we assay to commune with thee, wilt thou
be grieved? but who can withhold himself from speaking? |
| |
|
|
| Job 4:3 |
|
Behold, thou hast instructed many, and thou
hast strengthened the weak hands. |
| |
|
|
| Job 4:4 |
|
Thy words have upholden him that was falling,
and thou hast strengthened the feeble knees. |
| |
|
|
| Job 4:5 |
|
But now it is come upon thee, and thou faintest;
it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled. |
| |
|
|
| Job 4:6 |
|
Is not this thy fear, thy confidence, thy hope,
and the uprightness of thy ways? |
| |
|
|
| Job 4:7 |
|
Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being
innocent? or where were the righteous cut off? |
|
|
|
| Job 4:8 |
|
Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity,
and sow wickedness, reap the same. |
|
|
|
| Job 4:9 |
|
By the blast of God they perish, and by the
breath of his nostrils are they consumed. |
|
|
|
| Job 4:10 |
|
The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the
fierce lion, and the teeth of the young lions, are broken. |
|
|
|
| Job 4:11 |
|
The old lion perisheth for lack of prey, and
the stout lion's whelps are scattered abroad. |
|
|
|
| Job 4:12 |
|
Now a thing was secretly brought to me, and
mine ear received a little thereof. |
|
|
|
| Job 4:13 |
|
In thoughts from the visions of the night, when
deep sleep falleth on men, |
|
|
|
| Job 4:14 |
|
Fear came upon me, and trembling, which made
all my bones to shake. |
|
|
|
| Job 4:15 |
|
Then a spirit passed before my face; the hair
of my flesh stood up: |
|
|
|
| Job 4:16 |
|
It stood still, but I could not discern the
form thereof: an image was before mine eyes, there was silence, and I heard a
voice, saying, |
|
|
|
| Job 4:17 |
|
Shall mortal man be more just than God? shall
a man be more pure than his maker? |
|
|
|
| Job 4:18 |
|
Behold, he put no trust in his servants; and
his angels he charged with folly: |
|
|
|
| Job 4:19 |
|
How much less in them that dwell in houses of
clay, whose foundation is in the dust, which are crushed before the moth? |
| |
|
|
| Job 4:20 |
|
They are destroyed from morning to evening:
they perish for ever without any regarding it. |
| |
|
|
| Job 4:21 |
|
Doth not their excellency which is in them go
away? they die, even without wisdom. |
