chapter_Job_4
Job 4:1: And Eliphaz the Temanite answereth and saith: &#8212; Job 4:2: Hath one tried a word with thee? &#8212; Thou art weary! And to keep in words who is able? Job 4:3: Lo, thou hast instructed many, And feeble hands thou makest strong. Job 4:4: The stumbling one do thy words raise up, And bowing knees thou dost strengthen. Job 4:5: But now, it cometh in unto thee, And thou art weary; It striketh unto thee, and thou art troubled. Job 4:6: Is not thy reverence thy confidence? Thy hope &#8212; the perfection of thy ways? Job 4:7: Remember, I pray thee, Who, being innocent, hath perished? And where have the upright been cut off? Job 4:8: As I have seen &#8212; ploughers of iniquity, And sowers of misery, reap it! Job 4:9: From the breath of God they perish, And from the spirit of His anger consumed. Job 4:10: The roaring of a lion, And the voice of a fierce lion, And teeth of young lions have been broken. Job 4:11: An old lion is perishing without prey, And the whelps of the lioness do separate. Job 4:12: And unto me a thing is secretly brought, And receive doth mine ear a little of it. Job 4:13: In thoughts from visions of the night, In the falling of deep sleep on men, Job 4:14: Fear hath met me, and trembling, And the multitude of my bones caused to fear. Job 4:15: And a spirit before my face doth pass, Stand up doth the hair of my flesh; Job 4:16: It standeth, and I discern not its aspect, A similitude is over-against mine eyes, Silence! and a voice I hear: Job 4:17: 'Is mortal man than God more righteous? Than his Maker is a man cleaner? Job 4:18: Lo, in His servants He putteth no credence, Nor in His messengers setteth praise.' Job 4:19: Also &#8212; the inhabitants of houses of clay, (Whose foundation is in the dust, They bruise them before a moth.) Job 4:20: From morning to evening are beaten down, Without any regarding, for ever they perish. Job 4:21: Hath not their excellency been removed with them? They die, and not in wisdom!
