ylt@Job:22:1 @And Eliphaz the Temanite answereth and saith: --

ylt@Job:22:2 @To God is a man profitable, Because a wise man to himself is profitable?

ylt@Job:22:3 @Is it a delight to the Mighty One That thou art righteous? is it gain, That thou makest perfect thy ways?

ylt@Job:22:4 @Because of thy reverence Doth He reason [with] thee? He entereth with thee into judgment:

ylt@Job:22:5 @Is not thy wickedness abundant? And there is no end to thine iniquities.

ylt@Job:22:6 @For thou takest a pledge of thy brother for nought, And the garments of the naked Thou dost strip off.

ylt@Job:22:7 @Thou causest not the weary to drink water, And from the hungry thou withholdest bread.

ylt@Job:22:8 @As to the man of arm -- he hath the earth, And the accepted of face -- he dwelleth in it.

ylt@Job:22:9 @Widows thou hast sent away empty, And the arms of the fatherless are bruised.

ylt@Job:22:10 @Therefore round about thee [are] snares, And trouble thee doth fear suddenly.

ylt@Job:22:11 @Or darkness -- thou dost not see, And abundance of waters doth cover thee.

ylt@Job:22:12 @Is not God high [in] heaven? And see the summit of the stars, That they are high.

ylt@Job:22:13 @And thou hast said, 'What -- hath God known? Through thickness doth He judge?

ylt@Job:22:14 @Thick clouds [are] a secret place to Him, And He doth not see;' And the circle of the heavens He walketh habitually,

ylt@Job:22:15 @The path of the age dost thou observe, That men of iniquity have trodden?

ylt@Job:22:16 @Who have been cut down unexpectedly, A flood is poured out on their foundation.

ylt@Job:22:17 @Those saying to God, 'Turn aside from us,' And what doth the Mighty One to them?

ylt@Job:22:18 @And he hath filled their houses [with] good: (And the counsel of the wicked Hath been far from me.)

ylt@Job:22:19 @See do the righteous and they rejoice, And the innocent mocketh at them,

ylt@Job:22:20 @'Surely our substance hath not been cut off, And their excellency hath fire consumed.'

ylt@Job:22:21 @Acquaint thyself, I pray thee, with Him, And be at peace, Thereby thine increase [is] good.

ylt@Job:22:22 @Receive, I pray thee, from His mouth a law, And set His sayings in thy heart.

ylt@Job:22:23 @If thou dost return unto the Mighty Thou art built up, Thou puttest iniquity far from thy tents.

ylt@Job:22:24 @So as to set on the dust a defence, And on a rock of the valleys a covering.

ylt@Job:22:25 @And the Mighty hath been thy defence, And silver [is] strength to thee.

ylt@Job:22:26 @For then on the Mighty thou delightest thyself, And dost lift up unto God thy face,

ylt@Job:22:27 @Thou dost make supplication unto Him, And He doth hear thee, And thy vows thou completest.

ylt@Job:22:28 @And thou decreest a saying, And it is established to thee, And on thy ways hath light shone.

ylt@Job:22:29 @For they have made low, And thou sayest, 'Lift up.' And the bowed down of eyes he saveth.

ylt@Job:22:30 @He delivereth the not innocent, Yea, he hath been delivered By the cleanness of thy hands.
