Job 4:1-11

1Then answered Eliphaz the Temanite, and said,

2If one assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieved?But who can withhold himself from speaking?3Behold, thou hast instructed many,And thou hast strengthened the weak hands.4Thy words have upholden him that was falling,And thou hast made firm the feeble knees.5But now it is come unto thee, and thou faintest;It toucheth thee, and thou art troubled.6Is not thy fear of God thy confidence,Andthe integrity of thy ways thy hope?7Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent?Or where were the upright cut off?8According as I have seen, they that plow iniquity,And sow trouble, reap the same.9By the breath of God they perish,And by the blast of his anger are they consumed.10The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion,And the teeth of the young lions, are broken.11The old lion perisheth for lack of prey,And the whelps of the lioness are scattered abroad.
