Job 15:1-13
1Then EliphazH464 the TemaniteH8489H559 repliedH6030:
2“Does a wiseH2450 man answerH6030 with emptyH7307 counselH1847or fillH4390 his bellyH990 with the hot east windH6921?3Should he argueH3198 with uselessH3808H5532 wordsH1697or speechesH4405 that serve noH3808 purposeH3276?4ButH637 youH859 even undermineH6565 the fearH3374 of Godand hinderH1639 meditationH7881 beforeH6440 HimH410.5ForH3588 your iniquityH5771 instructsH502 your mouthH6310,and you chooseH977 the languageH3956 of the craftyH6175.6Your own mouthH6310, notH3808 mineH589, condemns youH7561;your own lipsH8193 testifyH6030 against you.
7Were you the firstH7223 manH120 ever bornH3205?Were you brought forthH2342 beforeH6440 the hillsH1389?8Do you listen inH8085 on the councilH5475 of GodH433or limitH1639 wisdomH2451 to yourselfH413?9WhatH4100 do you knowH3045 that we do notH3808H3045?What do you understandH995 that is notH3808 clear to usH5973H1931?10BothH1571 the gray-hairedH7867 andH1571 the agedH3453 are on our side—men much olderH3524H3117 than your fatherH1.11Are the consolationsH8575 of GodH410 not enoughH4592 for youH4480,even wordsH1697 spoken gentlyH328 to youH5973?12WhyH4100 has your heartH3820 carried you awayH3947,and whyH4100 do your eyesH5869 flashH7335,113so thatH3588 you turnH7725 your spiritH7307 againstH413 GodH410and pour such wordsH4405 fromH3318 your mouthH6310?
