ylt - Job:12-14

ylt@Job:12:1 @And Job answereth and saith: --

ylt@Job:12:2 @Truly -- ye [are] the people, And with you doth wisdom die.

ylt@Job:12:3 @I also have a heart like you, I am not fallen more than you, And with whom is there not like these?

ylt@Job:12:4 @A laughter to his friend I am: 'He calleth to God, and He answereth him,' A laughter [is] the perfect righteous one.

ylt@Job:12:5 @A torch -- despised in the thoughts of the secure Is prepared for those sliding with the feet.

ylt@Job:12:6 @At peace are the tents of spoilers, And those provoking God have confidence, He into whose hand God hath brought.

ylt@Job:12:7 @And yet, ask, I pray thee, [One of] the beasts, and it doth shew thee, And a fowl of the heavens, And it doth declare to thee.

ylt@Job:12:8 @Or talk to the earth, and it sheweth thee, And fishes of the sea recount to thee:

ylt@Job:12:9 @'Who hath not known in all these, That the hand of Jehovah hath done this?

ylt@Job:12:10 @In whose hand [is] the breath of every living thing, And the spirit of all flesh of man.'

ylt@Job:12:11 @Doth not the ear try words? And the palate taste food for itself?

ylt@Job:12:12 @With the very aged [is] wisdom, And [with] length of days understanding.

ylt@Job:12:13 @With Him [are] wisdom and might, To him [are] counsel and understanding.

ylt@Job:12:14 @Lo, He breaketh down, and it is not built up, He shutteth against a man, And it is not opened.

ylt@Job:12:15 @Lo, He keepeth in the waters, and they are dried up, And he sendeth them forth, And they overturn the land.

ylt@Job:12:16 @With Him [are] strength and wisdom, His the deceived and deceiver.

ylt@Job:12:17 @Causing counsellors to go away a spoil, And judges He maketh foolish.

ylt@Job:12:18 @The bands of kings He hath opened, And He bindeth a girdle on their loins.

ylt@Job:12:19 @Causing ministers to go away a spoil And strong ones He overthroweth.

ylt@Job:12:20 @Turning aside the lip of the stedfast, And the reason of the aged He taketh away.

ylt@Job:12:21 @Pouring contempt upon princes, And the girdle of the mighty He made feeble.

ylt@Job:12:22 @Removing deep things out of darkness, And He bringeth out to light death-shade.

ylt@Job:12:23 @Magnifying the nations, and He destroyeth them, Spreading out the nations, and He quieteth them.

ylt@Job:12:24 @Turning aside the heart Of the heads of the people of the land, And he causeth them to wander In vacancy -- no way!

ylt@Job:12:25 @They feel darkness, and not light, He causeth them to wander as a drunkard.

ylt@Job:13:1 @Lo, all -- hath mine eye seen, Heard hath mine ear, and it attendeth to it.

ylt@Job:13:2 @According to your knowledge I have known -- also I. I am not fallen more than you.

ylt@Job:13:3 @Yet I for the Mighty One do speak, And to argue for God I delight.

ylt@Job:13:4 @And yet, ye [are] forgers of falsehood, Physicians of nought -- all of you,

ylt@Job:13:5 @O that ye would keep perfectly silent, And it would be to you for wisdom.

ylt@Job:13:6 @Hear, I pray you, my argument, And to the pleadings of my lips attend,

ylt@Job:13:7 @For God do ye speak perverseness? And for Him do ye speak deceit?

ylt@Job:13:8 @His face do ye accept, if for God ye strive?

ylt@Job:13:9 @Is [it] good that He doth search you, If, as one mocketh at a man, ye mock at Him?

ylt@Job:13:10 @He doth surely reprove you, if in secret ye accept faces.

ylt@Job:13:11 @Doth not His excellency terrify you? And His dread fall upon you?

ylt@Job:13:12 @Your remembrances [are] similes of ashes, For high places of clay your heights.

ylt@Job:13:13 @Keep silent from me, and I speak, And pass over me doth what?

ylt@Job:13:14 @Wherefore do I take my flesh in my teeth? And my soul put in my hand?

ylt@Job:13:15 @Lo, He doth slay me -- I wait not! Only, my ways unto His face I argue.

ylt@Job:13:16 @Also -- He [is] to me for salvation, For the profane cometh not before Him.

ylt@Job:13:17 @Hear ye diligently my word, And my declaration with your ears.

ylt@Job:13:18 @Lo, I pray you, I have set in order the cause, I have known that I am righteous.

ylt@Job:13:19 @Who [is] he that doth strive with me? For now I keep silent and gasp.

ylt@Job:13:20 @Only two things, O God, do with me: Then from Thy face I am not hidden.

ylt@Job:13:21 @Thy hand put far off from me, And Thy terror let not terrify me.

ylt@Job:13:22 @And call Thou, and I -- I answer, Or -- I speak, and answer Thou me.

ylt@Job:13:23 @How many iniquities and sins have I? My transgression and my sin let me know.

ylt@Job:13:24 @Why dost Thou hide Thy face? And reckonest me for an enemy to Thee?

ylt@Job:13:25 @A leaf driven away dost Thou terrify? And the dry stubble dost Thou pursue?

ylt@Job:13:26 @For Thou writest against me bitter things, And causest me to possess iniquities of my youth:

ylt@Job:13:27 @And puttest in the stocks my feet, And observest all my paths, On the roots of my feet Thou settest a print,

ylt@Job:13:28 @And he, as a rotten thing, weareth away, As a garment hath a moth consumed him.

ylt@Job:14:1 @Man, born of woman! Of few days, and full of trouble!

ylt@Job:14:2 @As a flower he hath gone forth, and is cut off, And he fleeth as a shadow and standeth not.

ylt@Job:14:3 @Also -- on this Thou hast opened Thine eyes, And dost bring me into judgment with Thee.

ylt@Job:14:4 @Who giveth a clean thing out of an unclean? not one.

ylt@Job:14:5 @If determined are his days, The number of his months [are] with Thee, His limit Thou hast made, And he passeth not over;

ylt@Job:14:6 @Look away from off him that he may cease, Till he enjoy as an hireling his day.

ylt@Job:14:7 @For there is of a tree hope, if it be cut down, That again it doth change, That its tender branch doth not cease.

ylt@Job:14:8 @If its root becometh old in the earth, And its stem doth die in the dust,

ylt@Job:14:9 @From the fragrance of water it doth flourish, And hath made a crop as a plant.

ylt@Job:14:10 @And a man dieth, and becometh weak, And man expireth, and where [is] he?

ylt@Job:14:11 @Waters have gone away from a sea, And a river becometh waste and dry.

ylt@Job:14:12 @And man hath lain down, and riseth not, Till the wearing out of the heavens they awake not, Nor are roused from their sleep.

ylt@Job:14:13 @O that in Sheol Thou wouldst conceal me, Hide me till the turning of Thine anger, Set for me a limit, and remember me.

ylt@Job:14:14 @If a man dieth -- doth he revive? All days of my warfare I wait, till my change come.

ylt@Job:14:15 @Thou dost call, and I -- I answer Thee; To the work of Thy hands Thou hast desire.

ylt@Job:14:16 @But now, my steps Thou numberest, Thou dost not watch over my sin.

ylt@Job:14:17 @Sealed up in a bag [is] my transgression, And Thou sewest up mine iniquity.

ylt@Job:14:18 @And yet, a falling mountain wasteth away, And a rock is removed from its place.

ylt@Job:14:19 @Stones have waters worn away, Their outpourings wash away the dust of earth, And the hope of man Thou hast destroyed.

ylt@Job:14:20 @Thou prevailest [over] him for ever, and he goeth, He is changing his countenance, And Thou sendest him away.

ylt@Job:14:21 @Honoured are his sons, and he knoweth not; And they are little, and he attendeth not to them.

ylt@Job:14:22 @Only -- his flesh for him is pained, And his soul for him doth mourn.'

ylt@Job:15:1 @And Eliphaz the Temanite answereth and saith: --
