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.

dby@Job:5:1 @ Call, I pray thee! Is there any that answereth thee? and to which of the holy ones wilt thou turn?

dby@Job:5:2 @ For vexation killeth the foolish man, and envy slayeth the simple.

dby@Job:5:3 @ I myself saw the foolish taking root, but suddenly I cursed his habitation.

dby@Job:5:4 @ His children are far from safety, and they are crushed in the gate, and there is no deliverer:

dby@Job:5:5 @ Whose harvest the hungry eateth up, and taketh even out of the thorns; and the snare gapeth for his substance.

dby@Job:5:6 @ For evil cometh not forth from the dust, neither doth trouble spring out of the ground;

dby@Job:5:7 @ For man is born to trouble, as the sparks fly upwards.

dby@Job:5:8 @ But as for me I will seek unto �God, and unto God commit my cause;

dby@Job:5:9 @ Who doeth great things and unsearchable, marvellous things without number;

dby@Job:5:10 @ Who giveth rain on the face of the earth, and sendeth waters on the face of the fields;

dby@Job:5:11 @ Setting up on high those that are low; and mourners are exalted to prosperity.

dby@Job:5:12 @ He disappointeth the devices of the crafty, and their hands carry not out the enterprise.

dby@Job:5:13 @ He taketh the wise in their own craftiness; and the counsel of the wily is carried headlong:

dby@Job:5:14 @ They meet with darkness in a the daytime, and grope at midday as in the night.

dby@Job:5:15 @ And he saveth the needy from the sword, from their mouth, and from the hand of the mighty.

dby@Job:5:16 @ So the poor hath what he hopeth for, and unrighteousness stoppeth her mouth.

dby@Job:5:17 @ Behold, happy is the man whom +God correcteth; therefore despise not the chastening of the Almighty.

dby@Job:5:18 @ For he maketh sore, and bindeth up; he woundeth, and his hands make whole.

dby@Job:5:19 @ He will deliver thee in six troubles, and in seven there shall no evil touch thee.

dby@Job:5:20 @ In famine he will redeem thee from death, and in war from the power of the sword.

dby@Job:5:21 @ Thou shalt be hidden from the scourge of the tongue; and thou shalt not be afraid of destruction when it cometh.

dby@Job:5:22 @ At destruction and famine thou shalt laugh, and of the beasts of the earth thou shalt not be afraid.

dby@Job:5:23 @ For thou shalt be in league with the stones of the field, and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee.

dby@Job:5:24 @ And thou shalt know that thy tent is in peace; and thou wilt survey thy fold, and miss nothing.

dby@Job:5:25 @ And thou shalt know that thy seed is numerous, and thine offspring as the herb of the earth.

dby@Job:5:26 @ Thou shalt come to the grave in a ripe age, as a shock of corn is brought in in its season.

dby@Job:5:27 @ Behold this, we have searched it out, so it is; hear it, and know thou it for thyself.

dby@Job:6:1 @ And Job answered and said,
