lesserot@Job:22:1 @ Then answered Eliphaz the Themanite, and said,

lesserot@Job:22:2 @ Can a man be serviceable unto God? Truly the intelligent is serviceable unto himself.

lesserot@Job:22:3 @ Is it any pleasure to the Almighty that thou art righteous? or is it any gain to him, that thou makest thy ways perfect?

lesserot@Job:22:4 @ Is it out of fear of thee that he will reproach thee? or go with thee into judgment?

lesserot@Job:22:5 @ Is not thy evil great? and no end to thy iniquities?

lesserot@Job:22:6 @ For thou hast taken a pledge from thy brothers for nought, and stripped the naked of their clothing.

lesserot@Job:22:7 @ Thou hast not given water to the weary to drink, and from the hungry thou hast withholden bread.

lesserot@Job:22:8 @ But as for the man of a strong arm, he obtained the land, and the highly honored could dwell therein.

lesserot@Job:22:9 @ Widows hast thou sent away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken.

lesserot@Job:22:10 @ Therefore are snares round about thee, and sudden dread terrifieth thee.

lesserot@Job:22:11 @ Or seest thou not the darkness? and the abundance of water which covereth thee?

lesserot@Job:22:12 @ Is not God in the height of heaven? and beholding the highest elevation of the stars, however high they are?

lesserot@Job:22:13 @ But thou sayest, "What doth God know? can he judge behind the darkness?

lesserot@Job:22:14 @ Thick clouds are a covering for him, so that he will not see; and he walketh along on the circle of heaven."

lesserot@Job:22:15 @ Wilt thou observe the path of ancient times which the men of injustice have trodden?

lesserot@Job:22:16 @ Who were shrivelled up before their time, whose foundation was flooded away like a river;

lesserot@Job:22:17 @ Who said unto God, "Depart from us:" and what wrought the Almighty for them?

lesserot@Job:22:18 @ And yet it was he that filled their houses with good things; but the counsel of the wicked be far from me.

lesserot@Job:22:19 @ The righteous will see it, and be glad; and the innocent will laugh them to scorn.

lesserot@Job:22:20 @ "Is not he destroyed that rose up against us, and hath not the fire consumed what they had left?"

lesserot@Job:22:21 @ Do but become acquainted with him, and be at peace: thereby will happiness come unto thee.

lesserot@Job:22:22 @ Do but accept instruction from his mouth, and lay up his saying in thy heart.

lesserot@Job:22:23 @ If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, so thou wilt but remove wrongdoing far away from thy tents.

lesserot@Job:22:24 @ And throw down in the dust precious metals, and Ophir to the stones of the brooks:

lesserot@Job:22:25 @ Then will the Almighty be thy precious metal, and brightlyshining silver unto thee.

lesserot@Job:22:26 @ For then wilt thou have in the Almighty thy delight, and thou canst lift up unto God thy face.

lesserot@Job:22:27 @ Thou wilt make entreaty unto him, and he will hear thee, and thy vows wilt thou pay.

lesserot@Job:22:28 @ And if thou decree a thing, it will be fulfilled unto thee; and upon thy ways the light will shine.

lesserot@Job:22:29 @ For when men are brought low, thou wilt say, Pride; but those of lowly eyes will help.

lesserot@Job:22:30 @ He will even deliver him who is not guiltless: and thou wilt be delivered by the purity of thy hands.
