Job 33

Revised Version 1895

1Howbeit, JobH347, I prayH4994 thee, hearH8085 my speechH4405, and hearken to allH3605 my wordsH1697. 2BeholdH2009 nowH4994, I have openedH6605 my mouthH6310, my tongueH3956 hath spokenH1696 in my mouthH6310. 3My wordsH561 shall utter the uprightnessH3476 of my heartH3820: and that which my lipsH8193 knowH1847 they shall speakH8193 sincerelyH1305. 4The spiritH7307 of GodH410 hath madeH6213 meH2421, and the breathH7307 of the AlmightyH7706 giveth meH2421 lifeH2421. 5IfH518 thou canst, answerH7725 thou meH6440; setH7725 thy words in order beforeH6440 meH6440, standH3320 forthH3320. 6BeholdH2005, I am toward GodH410 evenH1571 as thou art: I also am formedH7169 out of the clay. 7BeholdH2009, my terrorH367 shall notH3808 makeH3513 thee afraid, neitherH3808 shall my pressureH405 be heavyH3513 uponH5921 thee. 8SurelyH389 thou hast spokenH559 in mine hearingH241, and I have heardH8085 the voiceH6963 of thy wordsH4405, sayingH559, 9I am cleanH2134, withoutH3808 transgressionH6588; I am innocentH2643, neitherH3808 is there iniquityH5771 in meH589: 10BeholdH2005, he findeth occasionsH8569 againstH5921 meH5921, he counteth meH5921 for his enemyH341; 11He putteth my feetH7272 in the stocksH5465, he marketh allH3605 my pathsH734. 12BeholdH2005, I will answerH6030 thee, in this thou art notH3808 justH6663; for GodH433 is greaterH7235 thanH3808 manH582. 13WhyH4069 dost thou striveH7378 againstH413 him? for he giveth notH3808 accountH1697 of anyH3605 of his mattersH1697. 14For GodH410 speaketh onceH259, yeaH3588 twiceH8147, thoughH3588 manH259 regardeth it notH3808. 15In a dreamH2472, in a visionH2384 of the nightH3915, when deepH8639 sleepH8639 falleth uponH5921 menH376, in slumberings uponH5921 the bedH4904; 16Then he openeth the earsH241 of menH376, and sealeth their instruction, 17That he may withdraw manH120 from his purpose, and hideH3680 prideH1466 from manH120; 18He keepeth backH2820 his soulH5315 from the pitH7845, and his lifeH5315 from perishing by the sword. 19He is chastenedH3198 also with painH4341 uponH5921 his bedH4904, and with continual strifeH7379 in his bonesH6106: 20So that his lifeH5315 abhorreth breadH3899, and his soulH5315 dainty meat. 21His fleshH1320 is consumedH3615 awayH3615, that it cannotH3808 be seenH7200; and his bonesH6106 that were notH3808 seenH7200 stick outH7200. 22Yea, his soulH5315 draweth nearH7126 unto the pitH7845, and his lifeH5315 to the destroyers. 23IfH518 there be with him an angelH4397, an interpreter, one among a thousandH505, to shew unto manH120 whatH5921 is rightH3476 for him; 24Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, DeliverH6308 him from goingH3381 downH3381 to the pitH7845, I have foundH4672 a ransomH3724. 25His fleshH1320 shall be fresherH7375 than a child’s; he returneth to the daysH3117 of his youthH5290: 26He prayeth unto GodH433, and he is favourable unto him; soH7725 that he seeth his faceH6440 with joyH8643: and he restoreth unto manH582 his righteousnessH6666. 27He singeth beforeH5921 menH376, and saith, I have sinnedH2398, and perverted that whichH3477 was rightH3477, and it profited meH5921 notH3808: 28He hath redeemedH6299 my soulH5315 from going intoH7200 the pitH7845, and my lifeH5315 shall beholdH7200 the lightH216. 29LoH2005, allH3605 theseH428 things doth GodH410 workH6466, twiceH6471, yea thrice, with a manH1397, 30To bringH7725 backH7725 his soulH5315 from the pitH7845, that he may be enlightenedH215 with the lightH216 of the livingH2416. 31Mark well, O JobH347, hearken unto meH1696: hold thy peace, and I will speakH1696. 32IfH518 thou hast anyH3426 thingH3588 to sayH1696, answerH7725 meH7725: speakH1696, for I desireH2654 to justifyH6663 thee. 33IfH518 notH369, hearken thou unto meH859: hold thy peace, and I will teachH502 thee wisdomH2451.
