acv@Job:22:1 @ Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered, and said,
acv@Job:22:2 @ Can a man be profitable to God? Surely he who is wise is profitable to himself.
acv@Job:22:3 @ Is it any pleasure to the Almighty that thou are righteous? Or is it gain [to him] that thou make thy ways perfect?
acv@Job:22:4 @ Is it for thy fear [of him] that he reproves thee, that he enters with thee into judgment?
acv@Job:22:5 @ Is not thy wickedness great? Neither is there any end to thine iniquities.
acv@Job:22:6 @ For thou have taken pledges from thy brother for nothing, and stripped the naked of their clothing.
acv@Job:22:7 @ Thou have not given water to the weary to drink, and thou have withheld bread from the hungry.
acv@Job:22:8 @ But as for the mighty man, he had the land. And the honorable man, he dwelt in it.
acv@Job:22:9 @ Thou have sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken.
acv@Job:22:10 @ Therefore snares are round about thee, and sudden fear troubles thee,
acv@Job:22:11 @ or darkness, so that thou cannot see, and abundance of waters cover thee.
acv@Job:22:12 @ Is not God in the height of heaven? And behold the height of the stars, how high they are!
acv@Job:22:13 @ And thou say, What does God know? Can he judge through the thick darkness?
acv@Job:22:14 @ Thick clouds are a covering to him, so that he does not see, and he walks on the vault of heaven.
acv@Job:22:15 @ Will thou keep the old way which wicked men have trodden?
acv@Job:22:16 @ Who were snatched away before their time, whose foundation was poured out as a stream,
acv@Job:22:17 @ who said to God, Depart from us, and, What can the Almighty do for us?
acv@Job:22:18 @ Yet he filled their houses with good things. But the counsel of the wicked is far from me.
acv@Job:22:19 @ The righteous see it, and are glad. And the innocent laugh them to scorn,
acv@Job:22:20 @ [Saying], Surely those who rose up against us are cut off, and the remnant of them, the fire has consumed.
acv@Job:22:21 @ Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace. By this good shall come to thee.
acv@Job:22:22 @ Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thy heart.
acv@Job:22:23 @ If thou return to the Almighty, thou shall be built up, thou put away unrighteousness far from thy tents.
acv@Job:22:24 @ Then thou shall lay up gold as dust, and [the gold of] Ophir as the stones of the brooks.
acv@Job:22:25 @ Yea, the Almighty will be thy treasure, and precious silver to thee.
acv@Job:22:26 @ For then shall thou delight thyself in the Almighty, and shall lift up thy face to God.
acv@Job:22:27 @ Thou shall make thy prayer to him, and he will hear thee, and thou shall pay thy vows.
acv@Job:22:28 @ Thou shall also decree a thing, and it shall be established to thee. And light shall shine upon thy ways.
acv@Job:22:29 @ When they cast [thee] down, thou shall say, [There is] lifting up, and he will save the humble man.
acv@Job:22:30 @ He will deliver [even] him who is not innocent. Yea, he shall be delivered through the cleanness of thy hands.
