Job 4




dby@Job:4:1 @ And Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said,

dby@Job:4:2 @ If a word were essayed to thee, wouldest thou be grieved? But who can refrain from speaking?

dby@Job:4:3 @ Behold, thou hast instructed many, and thou hast strengthened the weak hands;

dby@Job:4:4 @ Thy words have upholden him that was stumbling, and thou hast braced up the bending knees:

dby@Job:4:5 @ But now it is come upon thee, and thou grievest; it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled.

dby@Job:4:6 @ Hath not thy piety been thy confidence, and the perfection of thy ways thy hope?

dby@Job:4:7 @ Remember, I pray thee, who that was innocent has perished? and where were the upright cut off?

dby@Job:4:8 @ Even as I have seen, they that plough iniquity and sow mischief, reap the same.

dby@Job:4:9 @ By the breath of +God they perish, and by the blast of his nostrils are they consumed.

dby@Job:4:10 @ The roar of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion, and the teeth of the young lions, are broken;

dby@Job:4:11 @ The old lion perisheth for lack of prey, and the whelps of the lioness are scattered.

dby@Job:4:12 @ Now to me a word was secretly brought, and mine ear received a whisper thereof.

dby@Job:4:13 @ In thoughts from visions of the night, when deep sleep falleth on men: --

dby@Job:4:14 @ Fear came on me, and trembling, and made all my bones to shake;

dby@Job:4:15 @ And a spirit passed before my face -- the hair of my flesh stood up --

dby@Job:4:16 @ It stood still; I could not discern the appearance thereof: a form was before mine eyes; I heard a slight murmur and a voice:

dby@Job:4:17 @ Shall [mortal] man be more just than +God? Shall a man be purer than his Maker?

dby@Job:4:18 @ Lo, he trusteth not his servants, and his angels he chargeth with folly:

dby@Job:4:19 @ How much more them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed as the moth!

dby@Job:4:20 @ From morning to evening are they smitten: without any heeding it, they perish for ever.

dby@Job:4:21 @ Is not their tent-cord torn away in them? they die, and without wisdom.
