Job 4

1Then answeredH559 EliphazH464 the TemaniteH8489, and saidH559, 2If one assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieved? but who canH4310 withhold himselfH413 from speakingH1697? 3BeholdH2009, thou hast instructedH3256 manyH7227, and thou hast strengthenedH2388 the weak handsH3027. 4Thy wordsH4405 have upholden him that was falling, and thou hast confirmedH6965 the feebleH3782 kneesH1290. 5But nowH6258 it is comeH935 unto thee, and thou faintest; it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled. 6Is notH3808 thy fearH3373 of GodH3808 thy confidenceH3690, and thy hopeH8615 the integrityH8537 of thy waysH1870? 7RememberH2142, I prayH4994 thee, who everH4310 perishedH6, beingH6 innocentH5355? or whereH375 were the uprightH3477 cutH3582 offH3582? 8According as I have seenH7200, they that plowH2790 iniquityH205, and sowH2232 troubleH5999, reapH7114 the same. 9By the breathH7307 of GodH433 they perishH6, and by the blastH7307 of his angerH639 are they consumedH3615. 10The roaringH7581 of the lionH738, and the voiceH6963 of the fierce lionH738, and the teethH8127 of the youngH3715 lionsH738, are brokenH5421. 11The oldH1121 lionH3918 perisheth for lackH1097 of preyH2964, and the whelpsH1121 of the lionessH3833 are scatteredH6504 abroad. 12Now a thingH1697 was secretly broughtH3947 to meH413, and mineH4480 earH241 receivedH3947 a whisperH8102 thereof. 13In thoughts from the visionsH2384 of the nightH3915, when deepH8639 sleepH8639 falleth on menH376, 14FearH6343 cameH7122 upon me, and tremblingH7460, which made allH7230 my bonesH6106 to shakeH6342. 15Then a spiritH7307 passedH2498 beforeH6440 my faceH6440; the hairH8185 of my fleshH1320 stood upH5921. 16It stoodH5975 stillH5975, but I could notH3808 discernH8085 the appearanceH4758 thereof; a formH8544 was beforeH5048 mine eyesH5869: there was silenceH1827, and I heardH8085 a voiceH6963, sayingH6963, 17Shall mortalH582 manH1397 be more justH6663 thanH518 GodH433? shall a manH1397 be more pureH2891 thanH518 his Maker? 18BeholdH2005, he putteth noH3808 trustH539 in his servantsH5650; and his angelsH4397 he chargeth with follyH8417: 19HowH834 muchH637 moreH637 them that dwellH7931 in housesH1004 of clay, whoseH834 foundationH3247 is in the dustH6083, whichH834 are crushedH1792 beforeH6440 the mothH6211! 20Betwixt morningH1242 and eveningH6153 they are destroyedH6: they perishH6 for everH5331 withoutH1097 any regarding it. 21Is notH3808 their tent-cord pluckedH5265 up within them? they dieH4191, and that withoutH3808 wisdomH2451.
