Job 4:1-11

1Then EliphazH464 the TemaniteH8489H559 repliedH6030:

2“If one venturesH5254 a wordH1697 with youH413, will you be weariedH3811?Yet whoH4310 canH3201 keepH6113 from speakingH4405?3SurelyH2009 you have instructedH3256 manyH7227,and have strengthenedH2388 their feebleH7504 handsH3027.4Your wordsH4405 have steadiedH6965 those who stumbledH3782;you have bracedH553 the kneesH1290 that were bucklingH3766.5ButH3588 nowH6258 trouble has comeH935 upon youH413, and you are wearyH3811.It strikes youH5060H5704, and you are dismayedH926.6Is your reverenceH3374 notH3808 your confidenceH3690,and the uprightnessH8537 of your waysH1870 your hopeH8615?
7ConsiderH2142 now, I pleadH4994:
WhoH4310, being innocentH5355, has ever perishedH6?Or whereH375 have the uprightH3477 been destroyedH3582?8AsH834 I have observedH7200, those who plowH2790 iniquityH205and those who sowH2232 troubleH5999 reap the sameH7114.9By the breathH5397 of GodH433 they perishH6,and by the blastH7307 of His angerH639 they are consumedH3615.10The lionH738 may roarH7581, and the fierce lionH7826 may growlH6963,yet the teethH8127 of the young lionsH3715 are brokenH5421.11The old lionH3918 perishesH6 for lackH1097 of preyH2964,and the cubsH1121 of the lionessH3833 are scatteredH6504.
