lesserot@Job:1:1 @ There was a man in the land of ‘Uz, Job was his name; And this man was perfect and upright, and fearing God, and eschewing evil.

lesserot@Job:1:2 @ And there were born unto him seven sons and three daughters.

lesserot@Job:1:3 @ And his cattle consisted of seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she–asses, and he had a very great store of servants: so that this man was greater than all the sons of the east.

lesserot@Job:1:4 @ And his sons used to go and prepare a feast in the house of every one on his day; and they sent and invited their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.

lesserot@Job:1:5 @ And it happened, when the days of the feast were gone round, that Job sent and sanctified them, and he then rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt–offerings according to the number of all of them; for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and have renounced God in their heart. In this manner used Job to do all the time.

lesserot@Job:1:7 @ Then said the Lord unto the Accuser, Whence comest thou? And the Accuser answered the Lord, and said, From roaming over the earth, and from wandering through it.

lesserot@Job:1:8 @ Then said the Lord unto the Accuser, Hast thou directed thy attention toward my servant Job; for there is none like him on the earth, a man perfect and upright, who feareth God, and escheweth evil?

lesserot@Job:1:9 @ Then answered the Accuser the Lord, and said, Is it for nought that Job feareth God?

lesserot@Job:1:10 @ Behold, thou hast indeed placed a fence about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath, on every side: the work of his hands hast thou blessed, and his cattle are far spread out in the land.

lesserot@Job:1:11 @ But stretch only forth thy hand and touch all that he hath, and whether he will not renounce thee to thy face.

lesserot@Job:1:12 @ Then said the Lord unto the Accuser, Behold, all that is his be in thy power; only against himself shalt thou not stretch forth thy hand. The Accuser went thereupon away from the presence of the Lord.

lesserot@Job:1:13 @ And it happened on a certain day, when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in the house of their first–born brother,

lesserot@Job:1:14 @ That a messenger came unto Job, and said, The oxen were ploughing, and the she–asses were feeding beside them:

lesserot@Job:1:15 @ When the Sabeans made an incursion, and took them away, and the young men they slew with the edge of the sword; and I am escaped, none but myself alone, to tell it unto thee.

lesserot@Job:1:16 @ This one was yet speaking, when another came, and said, A fire of God fell from heaven, and burnt among the sheep and the young men, and consumed them; and I am escaped, none but myself alone, to tell it unto thee.

lesserot@Job:1:17 @ This one was yet speaking, when another came, and said, The Chaldeans posted themselves in three divisions, and made an inroad against the camels, and took them away, and the young men they slew with the edge of the sword; and I am escaped, none but myself alone, to tell it unto thee.

lesserot@Job:1:18 @ While this one was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in the house of their first–born brother:

lesserot@Job:1:19 @ When, behold, a violent wind came from the direction of the wilderness, and struck against the four corners of the house, so that it fell upon the young men, and they died; and I am escaped, none but myself alone, to tell it unto thee.

lesserot@Job:1:20 @ Then arose Job, and rent his robe, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and prostrated himself.

lesserot@Job:1:21 @ And he said, Naked came I out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return thither: the Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; may the name of the Lord be blessed.

lesserot@Job:1:22 @ With all this did Job not sin, and attributed no injustice to God.

lesserot@Job:2:1 @ And it happened on a certain day, when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, that the Accuser also came in the midst of them to present himself before the Lord.

lesserot@Job:2:2 @ Then said the Lord unto the Accuser, Whence comest thou now? And the Accuser answered the Lord, and said, From roaming over the earth, and from wandering through it.

lesserot@Job:2:3 @ Then said the Lord unto the Accuser, Hast thou directed thy attention toward my servant Job: for there is none like him on the earth, a man perfect and upright, who feareth God, and escheweth evil? and he is still holding fast to his integrity, and thou hast incited me against him, to destroy him without cause.

lesserot@Job:2:4 @ Then answered the Accuser the Lord, and said, Skin for skin: yea, all that a man hath will he give in behalf of his life.

lesserot@Job:2:5 @ But stretch only forth thy hand, and touch his bone and his flesh, and whether he will not renounce thee to thy face.

lesserot@Job:2:6 @ Then said the Lord unto the Accuser, Behold, he is in thy hand: only take care of his life.

lesserot@Job:2:7 @ Thereupon went the Accuser forth from the presence of the Lord, and he smote Job with a sore inflammation, from the sole of his foot unto the crown of his head.

lesserot@Job:2:8 @ And took himself a potsherd to scrape himself there with, while he was sitting down among the ashes.

lesserot@Job:2:9 @ Then said his wife unto him, Art thou still holding fast to thy integrity? renounce God, and die.

lesserot@Job:2:10 @ But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the worthless women would speak. What? should we accept the good alone, from God, and the evil we should not accept? With all this did Job not sin with his lips.

lesserot@Job:2:11 @ When now the three friends of Job had heard of all this evil that was come over him, they came every one from his own place, Eliphaz the Themanite, and Bildad the Shuchite, and Zophar the Na’amthite; and they met together to come to condole with him and to comfort him.

lesserot@Job:2:12 @ And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and they recognised him not, they lifted up their voice, and wept; and they rent every one his robe, and strewed dust upon their heads toward heaven.

lesserot@Job:2:13 @ They likewise sat down with him on the ground seven days and seven nights; but no one spoke a word unto him; for they saw that his pain was very great.

lesserot@Job:3:1 @ After this time Job opened his mouth, and cursed his day.

lesserot@Job:3:2 @ And Job commenced, and said,

lesserot@Job:3:3 @ Oh that the day whereon I was born might perish, and the night when it was said, There hath been a male child conceived.

lesserot@Job:3:4 @ May that day be darkness; may not God from above inquire for it, and may no light beam upon it.

lesserot@Job:3:5 @ Oh that darkness and the shadow of death might defile it; may a cloud rest upon it; may the blackness of the day terrify it.

lesserot@Job:3:9 @ Let the stars of its twilight be darkened; let it hope for light, and there be none; and let it not behold the eyelids of the morning–dawn;

lesserot@Job:3:10 @ Because God closed not against me the doors of the womb, and thus concealed trouble from my eyes.

lesserot@Job:3:11 @ Why did I not die from the womb, and was I not born merely to perish at once?

lesserot@Job:3:12 @ Wherefore were knees ready to receive me? and for what purpose were breasts there that I might suck?

lesserot@Job:3:13 @ For now should I be lying still and be quiet; I should sleep: then would I be at rest,

lesserot@Job:3:14 @ With kings and counsellors of the earth, who build up ruined places for themselves;

lesserot@Job:3:17 @ There the wicked cease from troubling; and where the exhausted weary are at rest;

lesserot@Job:3:19 @ The small with the great is there, and the servant free from his master.

lesserot@Job:3:20 @ Wherefore giveth He now light to the labor–laden, and life unto the bitter in soul?

lesserot@Job:3:21 @ Who wait for death, which not; and who dig for it sooner than for hidden treasures;

lesserot@Job:3:23 @ to a man whose way is hidden, and around whom God hath placed a fence?

lesserot@Job:3:24 @ For before my food cometh my groaning, and like the water are poured forth my loud complaints.

lesserot@Job:3:25 @ Because what I greatly dreaded is come upon me, and what I apprehended is come unto me.

lesserot@Job:3:26 @ I have had no safety, and no quiet, and no rest; and harrowing trouble is come.

lesserot@Job:4:1 @ Then answered Eliphaz the Themanite, and said,

lesserot@Job:4:3 @ Behold, thou hast corrected many, and weak hands thou wast wont to strengthen.

lesserot@Job:4:4 @ Him that stumbled thy words used to uphold, and to sinking knees thou gavest vigor.

lesserot@Job:4:5 @ Yet now, when it cometh to thee, thou art wearied: it toucheth even thee, and thou art terrified.

lesserot@Job:4:8 @ Even as I have seen, that those who plough wrong–doing, and sow trouble, have to reap the same.

lesserot@Job:4:9 @ Before the breathing of God they perish, and before the breath of his nostrils they come to their end.

lesserot@Job:4:10 @ The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion, and the teeth of the young lions, are broken.

lesserot@Job:4:11 @ The old lion perisheth for lack of prey, and the whelps of the lioness have to scatter themselves abroad.

lesserot@Job:4:12 @ But to me a word came by stealth, and my ear took in a scarcely perceptible whisper thereof.

lesserot@Job:4:14 @ Dread came over me, with trembling, and it caused all my bones to shudder.

lesserot@Job:4:18 @ Behold, in his servants he putteth no trust, and his angels he chargeth with folly:

lesserot@Job:4:21 @ Behold, their excellency which is in them is torn away: they die, and this without wisdom.

lesserot@Job:5:1 @ Do but call: is there one that will answer thee? and to whom of the saints wilt thou turn thyself?

lesserot@Job:5:2 @ For vexation will prove death to a foolish man, and jealousy will slay the simple.

lesserot@Job:5:4 @ His children are far from help, and men crush them in the gate, with no one to deliver them.

lesserot@Job:5:5 @ whose harvest the hungry eateth up, and taketh it even out of the thorns, and the robber snatcheth eagerly after their substance.

lesserot@Job:5:8 @ I, however, would have besought God, and unto God would I have committed my cause;

lesserot@Job:5:10 @ Who giveth rain upon the surface of the earth, and sendeth out waters over the face of the fields;

lesserot@Job:5:12 @ who frustrateth the plans of the crafty, so that their hands cannot execute their well–devised counsel;

lesserot@Job:5:13 @ Who catcheth the wise in their own craftiness; and the advise of the perverse is hastened on headlong;

lesserot@Job:5:14 @ By day they meet with darkness, and as though it were night they grope about in the noon of day;

lesserot@Job:5:15 @ But who saveth from the sword, from their mouth, and from the hand of the mighty, the needy one:

lesserot@Job:5:16 @ And so cometh to the indigent hope, and iniquity stoppeth her mouth.

lesserot@Job:5:18 @ For he it is that woundeth, and bindeth up: he smiteth, and his hands do heal.

lesserot@Job:5:19 @ In six distresses will he deliver thee; and in seven there shall no evil touch thee.

lesserot@Job:5:20 @ In famine he redeemeth thee from death; and in war from the power of the sword.

lesserot@Job:5:21 @ Against the scourge of the tongue shall thou he hidden; and thou needest not be afraid of destruction when it cometh.

lesserot@Job:5:22 @ At destruction and famine canst thou laugh; and thou needest not have any fear of the beasts of the earth.

lesserot@Job:5:23 @ For with the stones of the field shalt thou have thy covenant; and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee.

lesserot@Job:5:24 @ And thou shalt know that there is peace in thy tent; and thou wilt look over thy habitation, and shalt miss nothing.

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

lesserot@Job:5:27 @ Behold this, we have searched it out, so it is: hear it, and do thou note it well for thyself.

lesserot@Job:6:1 @ Then answered Job, and said,

lesserot@Job:6:2 @ Oh that my vexation could be truly weighed, and my calamity; oh that men might lift it up in the balances at once!

lesserot@Job:6:3 @ For now it is already heavier than the sand of the sea: therefore are my words confused.

lesserot@Job:6:8 @ Oh that some one would grant the accomplishment of my request; and that God would grant me the fulfillment of my hope!

lesserot@Job:6:9 @ Yea, that it would please God that he might crush me: that he would let loose his hand, and make an end of me!

lesserot@Job:6:10 @ Then would this be still my comfort; yea, I would rejoice in my pain while be would not spare: that I have not gainsaid the commands of the Holy One.––

lesserot@Job:6:11 @ What is my strength, that I should wait? and what my end, that I should yet longer retain my patience?

lesserot@Job:6:13 @ Truly, am I not without my help in me? and is not wise counsel driven far away from me?

lesserot@Job:6:14 @ As though I were one who refuseth kindness to his friend, and forsaketh the fear of the Almighty:

lesserot@Job:6:18 @ The paths of their course wind themselves along; they go in the wilderness and are lost.

lesserot@Job:6:20 @ But they stand ashamed because they had trusted; they come thither and are made to blush.

lesserot@Job:6:21 @ For truly now ye are like such a one: ye see my terrible state and are afraid.

lesserot@Job:6:22 @ Have I then ever said, Give me something, and out of your property offer a bribe in my behalf?

lesserot@Job:6:23 @ And deliver me from the hand of the adversary? and redeem from the hand of tyrants?

lesserot@Job:6:24 @ Teach me, and I will indeed remain silent; and wherein I erred give me to understand.

lesserot@Job:6:26 @ Do ye think to reprove words, and as wind the speeches of one that is despairing?

lesserot@Job:6:27 @ Yea, ye would cast any thing upon the fatherless, and ye would dig a pit against your friend.

lesserot@Job:6:28 @ But now, if it please you, turn yourselves toward me, and whether I would lie before your face.

lesserot@Job:6:30 @ Is there any wrong on my tongue? or should my palate not understand what is iniquitous?

lesserot@Job:7:2 @ As a servant eagerly longeth for the shadow, and as a hired laborer hopeth for his reward:

lesserot@Job:7:3 @ So was I compelled to possess months of vanity, and nights of trouble were counted out unto me.

lesserot@Job:7:4 @ When I He down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? and I am wearied with tossings about till the dawn of day.

lesserot@Job:7:5 @ My flesh is covered with worms and clods of dust: my skin is burst open, and become loathsome.

lesserot@Job:7:6 @ My days hasten away more swiftly than a weaver’s shuttle, and they come to an end in the absence of hope.

lesserot@Job:7:8 @ The eye of him that seeth me now will not behold me again: thy eyes upon me, and I am no more.

lesserot@Job:7:9 @ As the cloud vanisheth and passeth away: so will he that goeth down to the nether world not come up again.

lesserot@Job:7:10 @ He will return no more to his house, and his place will not recognize him any more.

lesserot@Job:7:14 @ Then wouldst thou frighten me with dreams, and with visions wouldst thou terrify me;

lesserot@Job:7:17 @ What is the mortal, that thou shouldst make him great? and that thou shouldst direct thy heart toward him?

lesserot@Job:7:18 @ And that thou shouldst visit him every morning, probe him every moment?

lesserot@Job:7:21 @ And why wilt thou not forgive my transgression, and let my iniquity pass away? for soon must I lie down in the dust; and thou wilt seek for me, but I shall be no more.

lesserot@Job:8:1 @ Then answered Bildad the Shuchite, and said,

lesserot@Job:8:2 @ How long wilt thou speak these things? and like a mighty wind be the words of thy mouth?

lesserot@Job:8:5 @ If thou wilt earnestly seek for God, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;

lesserot@Job:8:6 @ If thou become pure and upright: surely then will he watch over thee, and restore thy righteous habitation.

lesserot@Job:8:7 @ And thy beginning will have been small; because thy latter end will grow up greatly.

lesserot@Job:8:8 @ For ask, I pray thee, of an earlier generation, and prepare thyself to the research of their fathers; ––

lesserot@Job:8:9 @ For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because a shadow are our days upon earth; ––

lesserot@Job:8:10 @ Behold, these will truly teach thee, they will speak unto thee, and out of their very heart will they bring forth words:

lesserot@Job:8:13 @ So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hope of the hypocrite will perish:

lesserot@Job:8:14 @ whose trust will be cut off, and but a spider’s web is that in which he confideth.

lesserot@Job:8:15 @ He leaneth against his house, but it shall not stand: he layeth fast hold on it, but it shall not remain erect.

lesserot@Job:8:16 @ He is in full vigor before the sun, and over his garden his shoots go forth.

lesserot@Job:8:19 @ Behold, this is the joy of his way, and out of the dust others will grow up.

lesserot@Job:8:20 @ Behold, God will not reject a perfect man, and will not hold fast by their hand the evil–doers:

lesserot@Job:8:21 @ Till he fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with joyful shouting.

lesserot@Job:8:22 @ They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the tent of the wicked shall be no more.

lesserot@Job:9:1 @ Then answered Job, and said,

lesserot@Job:9:2 @ Truly I know that it is so: and how could a mortal be righteous before God?

lesserot@Job:9:3 @ If he were desirous to enter into a contest with him, he could not give him one answer out of a thousand.

lesserot@Job:9:4 @ He is wise of heart, and mighty in strength: who hath hardened himself against him, and escaped unscathed?

lesserot@Job:9:5 @ who removeth mountains, and they know it not, yea, when he overturneth them in his anger;

lesserot@Job:9:7 @ Who speaketh to the sun, and he shineth not, and around the stars he placeth a seal;

lesserot@Job:9:8 @ Who spread out the heavens by himself alone, and treadeth upon the hillocks of the sea;

lesserot@Job:9:9 @ Who made the Bear, Orion, and the Pleiades, and the chambers the south;

lesserot@Job:9:10 @ Who doth great things which are quite unsearchable, and wonders which are quite without number.

lesserot@Job:9:11 @ Lo, were he to go past by me, I should not see him; and were he to pass along, I should not perceive him.

lesserot@Job:9:14 @ How much less then could I answer him, and select my words with him?

lesserot@Job:9:16 @ Or were I to call, and he would answer me, I could yet not believe that he would give ear unto my voice––

lesserot@Job:9:17 @ He that bruiseth me with tempest, and multiplieth my wounds without a cause.

lesserot@Job:9:19 @ If it regard strength, lo, he is the powerful; and if justice, who will cite him for me to appear?

lesserot@Job:9:22 @ One thing is, therefore have I said it, The innocent and the wicked he bringeth to their end.

lesserot@Job:9:24 @ Is a land given up into the hand of the wicked? he covereth the faces of its judges: if this be not the truth, who is it then?

lesserot@Job:9:25 @ And my days pass swifter than a runner: they flee away, they see no happiness,

lesserot@Job:9:27 @ If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will leave off my sorrowful countenance, and recover my cheerfulness:

lesserot@Job:9:30 @ If I were to wash myself in snow–water, to cleanse myself in the purity of my hands:

lesserot@Job:9:33 @ There is no one who can decide between us, who could lay his hand upon us both.

lesserot@Job:9:34 @ Let him but remove from me his rod, and let not his dread terrify me:

lesserot@Job:9:35 @ Then would I speak, and not fear him; for the like I feel not within me.

lesserot@Job:10:3 @ Is it well for thee that thou shouldst oppress, that thou shouldst reject the labor of thy hands, and shed light upon the counsel of the wicked?

lesserot@Job:10:6 @ That thou inquirest after my iniquity, and searchest after my sin?

lesserot@Job:10:7 @ Still it is within thy knowledge that I am not wicked, and there is none that can deliver me out of thy hand.

lesserot@Job:10:8 @ Thy hands have carefully fashioned me and made me; every thing is in harmony all round about; and yet thou dost destroy me!

lesserot@Job:10:9 @ Remember, I beseech thee, that as though I were clay hast thou made me; and wilt thou cause me to return again unto the dust?

lesserot@Job:10:10 @ Behold, like milk didst thou pour me out, and like cheese didst thou curdle me.

lesserot@Job:10:11 @ With skin and flesh didst thou clothe me, and with bones and sinews didst thou cover me.

lesserot@Job:10:12 @ Life and kindness didst thou grant me, and thy providence watched over my spirit.

lesserot@Job:10:13 @ And yet these things hadst thou treasured up in thy heart: I know that this was within thee.

lesserot@Job:10:14 @ If I have sinned, then dost thou watch me, and from my iniquity thou wilt not declare me guiltless.

lesserot@Job:10:15 @ If I be wicked, woe unto me: and if I be righteous, I can still not lift up my head; I am sated with disgrace, and ever seeing my affliction;

lesserot@Job:10:16 @ And it constantly increaseth; like a fierce lion dost thou hunt for me; and again thou showest thyself continually wonderful on me;

lesserot@Job:10:17 @ Thou ever renewest thy witnesses against me, and causest thy indignation to grow strong against me; changes and multitudes are around me.

lesserot@Job:10:18 @ Wherefore then didst thou bring me forth out of the womb? Oh that I had perished, and that no eye had seen me!

lesserot@Job:10:21 @ Before I go, and return not, to the land of darkness and the shadow of death,

lesserot@Job:10:22 @ A land of utter gloom, as of the darkness of the shadow of death, without any order, and the light of which is like utter gloom.

lesserot@Job:11:1 @ Then answered Zophar the Na’amathite, and said.

lesserot@Job:11:2 @ Shall a multitude of words not be answered? and is it so that a man full of talk shall be deemed in the right?

lesserot@Job:11:3 @ Thy inventions are to bring men to silence; and when thou utterest thy mocking no one is to cause thee to feel abashed!

lesserot@Job:11:4 @ For thou hast said, My doctrine is pure, and I am become clean in thy eyes.

lesserot@Job:11:5 @ But oh that God would but speak, and open his lips against thee;

lesserot@Job:11:6 @ And that he would declare unto thee the secrets of wisdom; for it is double to that which is really in our possession: and thou wouldst experience that God overlooketh unto thee much of thy iniquity.

lesserot@Job:11:9 @ Longer than the earth is its measure, and broader than the sea.

lesserot@Job:11:10 @ If he pass by, and surrender, and call together an assembly, who can hinder him?

lesserot@Job:11:11 @ For he knoweth the men of vanity: he seeth the wrong–doer and him who considereth not;

lesserot@Job:11:12 @ And the heartless who acquireth intelligence, and him who is the colt of the wild ass who is transformed into a man.

lesserot@Job:11:13 @ If thou truly direct thy heart, and spread out thy hands toward him: ––

lesserot@Job:11:14 @ If wrong be in thy hand, put it far away, and let not wickedness dwell in thy tents.

lesserot@Job:11:15 @ For then canst thou lift up thy face free from blemish: yea, thou wilt stand steadfast, and needest not to fear;

lesserot@Job:11:16 @ Because thou wilt truly forget thy trouble, and as a waterflood that is passed away wilt thou remember it;

lesserot@Job:11:17 @ And brighter than the noon of day will thy earthly existence arise; and thy obscurity will be like thy morning.

lesserot@Job:11:18 @ And thou wilt feel trust, because there is hope: yea, thou wilt search about carefully, and thou wilt lie down in safety.

lesserot@Job:11:19 @ Also thou wilt stretch thyself out, with none to make thee afraid; and many will entreat thy favor.

lesserot@Job:11:20 @ But the eyes of the wicked shall fail, and the means of escape will vanish from them, and their hope shall be the breathing out of their soul.

lesserot@Job:12:1 @ Then answered Job, and said,

lesserot@Job:12:2 @ Truly ye are indeed the people, and with you wisdom must die out.

lesserot@Job:12:3 @ I also have sense like you; I do not fall short compared with you: and who possesseth not such things as these?

lesserot@Job:12:4 @ I am as one laughed at by his friend, who calleth upon God, while he answered him: a laughing–stock though righteous and innocent.

lesserot@Job:12:6 @ Prosperous are the tents of robbers, and security is given to those that provoke God. to him who carrieth his god in his hand.

lesserot@Job:12:7 @ Yet, do only ask of the beasts, and they will instruct thee; and the fowls of the heavens, and they will tell it thee;

lesserot@Job:12:8 @ Or speak to the earth, and she will instruct thee; and the fishes of the sea will inform thee

lesserot@Job:12:9 @ Who knoweth not through all these that the hand of the Lord hath wrought this?

lesserot@Job:12:10 @ in whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the spirit of all the bodies of men?

lesserot@Job:12:12 @ So It with the ancients wisdom, and with length of days understanding,

lesserot@Job:12:13 @ That with him are wisdom and strength, his are counsel and understanding.

lesserot@Job:12:14 @ Behold, he pulleth down, and there can be no rebuilding: he locketh upon a man, and there can be no opening,

lesserot@Job:12:15 @ Behold, he restraineth the waters, and they dry up; or he suffereth them to flow, and they overturn the earth.

lesserot@Job:12:16 @ With him are strength and counsel: his are the deceived and the deceiver.

lesserot@Job:12:17 @ He leadeth counsellors away bereft of sense, and maketh the judges fools.

lesserot@Job:12:18 @ He looseth the bond of kings, and bindeth a girdle around their loins.

lesserot@Job:12:19 @ He leadeth priests away bereft of sense, and the powerful he causeth to walk on crooked paths.

lesserot@Job:12:20 @ He removeth the speech from trusty speakers, and taketh away the intelligence of the aged.

lesserot@Job:12:21 @ He poureth contempt upon princes, and the belt of the mighty be looseneth.

lesserot@Job:12:22 @ He layeth open deep things from the midst of darkness, and bringeth out unto light the shadow of death.

lesserot@Job:12:23 @ He permitteth the nations to become great, and destroyeth them: he spreadeth out the nations, and leadeth them away.

lesserot@Job:12:24 @ He taketh away the sense of the chiefs of the people of the land, and causeth them to wander astray in a wilderness when there is no way.

lesserot@Job:12:25 @ They grope in the dark without light, and he causeth them to wander astray like a drunken man.

lesserot@Job:13:1 @ Lo, all hath my eye seen, my ear hath heard and noted it for itself;

lesserot@Job:13:3 @ However, I would gladly speak to the Almighty; and to argue with God do I desire.

lesserot@Job:13:5 @ Oh, who would grant that ye might keep a profound silences! and it would he accounted unto you as wisdom.

lesserot@Job:13:6 @ Do hearken but to my reasoning, and listen to the pleadings of my lips.

lesserot@Job:13:7 @ Will ye speak wrong things for God? and will ye speak for him deceitfully?

lesserot@Job:13:11 @ Doth not his excellency terrify you? and his dread fall upon you?

lesserot@Job:13:13 @ Keep silence toward me, that I may indeed speak, and let pass over me what will.

lesserot@Job:13:14 @ Whatever it may cost, I will take my flesh in my teeth, and my life will I put in my hand.

lesserot@Job:13:17 @ Listen well to my word, and to my demonstration with your ears.

lesserot@Job:13:21 @ Remove thy hand far from me; and let not thy dread terrify me.

lesserot@Job:13:22 @ Then call thou, and I will answer; or let me speak, and do thou reply to me.

lesserot@Job:13:23 @ How many are my iniquities and sins? my transgression and my sin let me know.

lesserot@Job:13:24 @ Wherefore wilt thou hide thy face, and regard me as an enemy unto thee?

lesserot@Job:13:25 @ Wilt thou terrify a leaf driven about? and wilt thou pursue dry stubble?

lesserot@Job:13:26 @ That thou writest bitter decrees against me, and assignest unto me the iniquities of my youth;

lesserot@Job:13:27 @ And thou puttest my feet in the stocks, and watchest narrowly all my paths; settest for thyself a mark upon the soles of my feet?

lesserot@Job:13:28 @ And yet the body decayeth like a rotten thing, as a garment that the moth hath eaten.

lesserot@Job:14:1 @ Man born of a woman is short of days, and sated with harrowing trouble.

lesserot@Job:14:2 @ Like a flower he cometh forth, and is cut down: and he fleeth like a shadow, and remaineth not.

lesserot@Job:14:3 @ And yet on such a one dost thou open thy eyes, and me thou bringest into judgment with thee?

lesserot@Job:14:6 @ Turn thyself from him that he may recover from his pain, and be able to enjoy like a hired laborer his day.

lesserot@Job:14:8 @ If even its root become old in the earth, and its stock die in the dust:

lesserot@Job:14:9 @ Yet through the scent of water will it flourish, and produce boughs as though It were newly planted.

lesserot@Job:14:10 @ But man dieth, and lieth powerless: yea, the son of earth departeth––and where is he?

lesserot@Job:14:11 @ The waters run off from the sea, and the river faileth and drieth up:

lesserot@Job:14:12 @ So doth man lie down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they will not awake, and will not be roused out of their sleep.

lesserot@Job:14:13 @ Oh who would grant that thou mightest hide me in the nether world, that thou mightest conceal me, until thy wrath be appeased, that thou mightest set for me a fixed time, and remember me then!

lesserot@Job:14:15 @ Do thou call, and I will truly answer thee: have a desire for the work of thy hands.

lesserot@Job:14:16 @ Yet now thou numberest my steps: and thou waitest not with my sin.

lesserot@Job:14:17 @ Sealed up in a bag is my transgression, and thou yet addest to my iniquity.

lesserot@Job:14:18 @ But truly a falling mountain will crumble, and a rock is moved out of its place.

lesserot@Job:14:19 @ The water weareth out stones; thou sweepest away their fragments the dust of the earth: and so thou destroyest the hope of man.

lesserot@Job:14:20 @ Thou assailest him with might without ceasing, till he passeth away: thou changest his countenance, and sendest him off.

lesserot@Job:14:21 @ His children acquire honor, but he knoweth it not: and they are esteemed little, but he perceiveth nothing of them.

lesserot@Job:14:22 @ But his body. on him, feeleth pain, and his soul will mourn for him.

lesserot@Job:15:1 @ Then answered Eliphaz the Themanite, and said,

lesserot@Job:15:2 @ Should a wise man utter windy knowledge, and fill his inward parts with the east wind?

lesserot@Job:15:3 @ Should he reason with a speech which availeth nothing? and with words in which there is no profit?

lesserot@Job:15:4 @ Yea, thou truly makest void the fear, and diminishest devotion before God.

lesserot@Job:15:8 @ Hast thou listened to the secret counsel of God? and is wisdom therefore of little esteem with thee?

lesserot@Job:15:9 @ What knowest thou, that we do not know? what understandest thou, which is not with us?

lesserot@Job:15:10 @ Both the grayheaded and the very aged are among us,–– richer than thy father in days.

lesserot@Job:15:11 @ Are the divine consolations too little for thee? and the word that was so mild with thee?

lesserot@Job:15:12 @ Whither doth thy heart carry thee away? and what do thy eyes gaze at?

lesserot@Job:15:13 @ That thou shouldst turn against God thy spirit, and utter words out of thy mouth?

lesserot@Job:15:14 @ What is man, that he should be pure? and that he who is born of woman should be declared righteous?

lesserot@Job:15:15 @ Behold, in his holy ones he putteth no trust; and the heavens are not pure in his eyes:

lesserot@Job:15:16 @ How much more then the abominable and corrupt, the man who drinketh like water wrong–doing?

lesserot@Job:15:17 @ I will instruct thee, hear me; and what I have seen will I relate;

lesserot@Job:15:18 @ Which wise men have ever told, and have not concealed, as they obtained it from their fathers;

lesserot@Job:15:19 @ Unto whom alone the earth was given, and into whose midst no stranger ever entered.

lesserot@Job:15:20 @ All his days is the wicked plagued with pain, and the number of years which are laid by for the tyrant.

lesserot@Job:15:22 @ He believeth not that he shall return out of darkness, and he is looked for by the sword.

lesserot@Job:15:23 @ He wandereth abroad for bread, Where is it? he knoweth that there is ready at his hand the day of darkness.

lesserot@Job:15:24 @ Distress and anguish terrify him: they assail him with might, as a king prepared for the battle.

lesserot@Job:15:25 @ Because he had stretched out against God his hand, and strengthened himself against the Almighty;

lesserot@Job:15:27 @ Because he had covered his face with his fat, and had made thick folds of fat on his flanks;

lesserot@Job:15:28 @ And he dwelt in abandoned cities, in houses which none inhabited, which were destined to be ruinous heaps.

lesserot@Job:15:30 @ He will never depart out of darkness: the flame shall dry up his shoots, and he will depart by the breath of God’s mouth.

lesserot@Job:15:32 @ Even before his time will it be overfull, and his branches will not be green.

lesserot@Job:15:33 @ He will shake off like the vine his unripe grapes, and cast off like the olive his blossoms.

lesserot@Job:15:34 @ For the assembly of hypocrites will remain desolate, and fire will consume the tents of bribery.

lesserot@Job:15:35 @ They conceive trouble, and bring forth wrong–doing, and their body prepareth deceit.

lesserot@Job:16:1 @ Then answered Job, and said,

lesserot@Job:16:4 @ I also could well speak as ye do: if your soul were but in my soul’s stead, I could overwhelm you with words, and could shake my head at you.

lesserot@Job:16:5 @ But I would strengthen you with my mouth, and the condolence of my lips should restrain.

lesserot@Job:16:6 @ Though I were to speak, my pain would not be restrained; and though I should forbear, what will go away from me?

lesserot@Job:16:8 @ And thou hast filled me with wrinkles, they are my witnesses; and my leanness riseth up for me, giveth its testimony to my face.

lesserot@Job:16:9 @ In his wrath he teareth me to pieces, and assaileth me: he gnasheth over me with his teeth; my adversary sendeth threatening looks at me.

lesserot@Job:16:11 @ God hath surrendered me to the unjust, and cast me down into the hands of the wicked.

lesserot@Job:16:12 @ I was at ease, but he hath crushed me; he hath also grasped me by the neck, and shaken me to pieces, and set me up unto himself as a mark;

lesserot@Job:16:13 @ His archers encompass me round about; he cleaveth my reins sunder, and doth not pity; he poureth out upon the ground my gall;

lesserot@Job:16:15 @ Sackcloth have I sewed upon my skin, and my horn I roll in the dust.

lesserot@Job:16:16 @ My face gloweth from weeping, and on my eyelids resteth the shadow of death:

lesserot@Job:16:17 @ Not because any violence is in my hands, and while my prayer is pure.

lesserot@Job:16:18 @ Earth! do thou not cover up my blood, and let no place restrain my cry.

lesserot@Job:16:19 @ Even now, behold, my witness is in the heavens, and one that testifieth for me is on high.

lesserot@Job:16:21 @ And oh that a man might plead with God, as one son of earth with the other!

lesserot@Job:17:2 @ Yet truly those that mock are with me, and on their offendings must my eye rest.

lesserot@Job:17:3 @ And thou, attend, I pray thee, be my surety with thyself: who else is there that would strike hands with me?

lesserot@Job:17:6 @ And he hath placed me here as a by–word unto nations; and I become openly as a place of abomination.

lesserot@Job:17:7 @ Therefore is my eye dim from vexation, and my limbs are all of them like a shadow.

lesserot@Job:17:8 @ Upright men must be astonished at this, and the innocent must arouse himself against the hypocrite.

lesserot@Job:17:9 @ Yet will the righteous hold firmly on to his way; and he that is clean of hands will acquire additional strength.

lesserot@Job:17:10 @ But all of you, do only return, and come but: and yet I shall not find among you one wise man.

lesserot@Job:17:14 @ When I call to corruption, Thou art my father: Thou art my mother, and my sister, to the worms.

lesserot@Job:18:1 @ Then answered Bildad the Shuchite, and said,

lesserot@Job:18:2 @ When will ye at length put an end to words? Come to an understanding, and afterward let us speak.

lesserot@Job:18:4 @ Thou, the one that teareth himself to pieces in his anger–– shall for thy sake the earth be forsaken, and the rock be moved away out of its place?

lesserot@Job:18:5 @ Ah, truly the light of the wicked will be quenched, and the spark of his fire shall not give light.

lesserot@Job:18:6 @ The light becometh dark in his tent, and his lamp will be quenched above him.

lesserot@Job:18:7 @ His powerful steps will be narrowed, and his own counsel will cast him down.

lesserot@Job:18:8 @ For he is driven into the net by his own feet, and he taketh his walk upon a snare.

lesserot@Job:18:9 @ The trap will seize him by the heel, and the robber will prevail over him.

lesserot@Job:18:10 @ The cord is hidden for him in the ground, and a trap is set for him on the pathway.

lesserot@Job:18:11 @ All around do terrors scare him, and chase him as he walketh along.

lesserot@Job:18:12 @ His first–born will suffer hunger, and calamity will be ready for his wife.

lesserot@Job:18:14 @ Then will be plucked up out of his tent his confidence, and will urge him forward to the king of terrors.

lesserot@Job:18:16 @ Beneath, his roots will be dried up, and above will his boughs he cut away.

lesserot@Job:18:17 @ His resemblance vanisheth from the earth, and no name remaineth for him in the streets.

lesserot@Job:18:18 @ Men will thrust him out from light into darkness, and out of the world will they drive him.

lesserot@Job:18:19 @ He will have neither son nor grandson among his people, nor any that escapeth in the places of his sojourning.

lesserot@Job:18:20 @ Because of his day are they that come after him astonished, and they that went before are seized with shuddering.

lesserot@Job:18:21 @ Yea, such are the dwellings of the unjust, and this is the place of one that knew not God.

lesserot@Job:19:1 @ Then answered Job, and said,

lesserot@Job:19:2 @ How long will ye grieve my soul, and crush me with words?

lesserot@Job:19:5 @ But if indeed ye wish to magnify yourselves above me, and to prove against me my disgrace:

lesserot@Job:19:6 @ Then know for certain that God hath bent me down, and hath laid his net all around me.

lesserot@Job:19:8 @ My road hath he fenced up, so that I cannot pass out; and on my paths he placeth darkness.

lesserot@Job:19:9 @ My glory hath he stripped from me, and removed the crown of my head.

lesserot@Job:19:10 @ He hath pulled me down on every side, and I am going hence; and he hath rooted up like a tree my hope.

lesserot@Job:19:11 @ He hath also kindled against me his wrath, and he counteth me with himself as one of his adversaries.

lesserot@Job:19:12 @ Altogether come on his troops, and make level against me their way, and encamp round about my tent.

lesserot@Job:19:13 @ My brothers hath he removed far from me, and my acquaintance are entirely estranged from me.

lesserot@Job:19:14 @ My near of kin have withdrawn, and those befriended by me have forgotten me.

lesserot@Job:19:15 @ Ye that sojourn in my house, and my maid–servants, regard me as a stranger: an alien am I become in their eyes.

lesserot@Job:19:17 @ My breath is become nauseous to my wife, and my caressing, to the children of my own body.

lesserot@Job:19:19 @ All that have had my confidence abominate me; and those whom I have loved are turned against me.

lesserot@Job:19:20 @ To my skin and to my flesh my bones do cleave, and I must sustain myself with the gums of my teeth.

lesserot@Job:19:21 @ Spare me, spare me, O ye, my friends; for the hand of God hath touched me.

lesserot@Job:19:22 @ Why will ye persecute me as God, and will never be satisfied with my flesh?

lesserot@Job:19:24 @ That they were hewn with an iron pen and lead for eternity in the hard rock!

lesserot@Job:19:25 @ And well I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he will remain as the last after the creatures of the dust;

lesserot@Job:19:26 @ And after my skin is cut to pieces will this be: and then freed from my body shall I behold God;

lesserot@Job:19:27 @ Whom I shall myself behold to my happiness, and whom my eyes will see, and not as a stranger, my reins are consumed within my bosom.

lesserot@Job:20:1 @ Then answered Zophar the Na’amathite, and said,

lesserot@Job:20:2 @ Even therefore do my inmost thoughts give me an answer, and for this reason do I feel a strong excitement within me.

lesserot@Job:20:3 @ Reproof which casteth shame on me must I hear; yet out of my understanding will the spirit give me an answer.

lesserot@Job:20:5 @ That the triumphal shouting of the wicked is ever of but a recent date, and the joy of the hypocrite endureth only for a moment.

lesserot@Job:20:6 @ Though his exaltation should mount up to the heavens, and his head should reach unto the clouds;

lesserot@Job:20:8 @ Like a dream will he fly away, and men will find him no more; yea, he will be chased away like a vision of the night.

lesserot@Job:20:9 @ If an eye have surveyed him, it will not do so again, and it will not behold him any more in his place.

lesserot@Job:20:10 @ His children will suffer oppression from the indigent, and his hands will have to restore his wealth.

lesserot@Job:20:13 @ He will cherish it, and not forsake it; and hold it back within his palate;

lesserot@Job:20:14 @ His food is thus changed within his bowels, and becometh the venom of asps within him.

lesserot@Job:20:17 @ He shall not look with pleasure on streams, on flowing brooks of honey and cream.

lesserot@Job:20:18 @ He restoreth what he hath labored for, and will not swallow it down; however much he may have obtained by toil, he will not have any joy of it.

lesserot@Job:20:19 @ Because he oppressed and forsook the indigent; because he took violently away a house, shall he not rebuild it;

lesserot@Job:20:22 @ In the fulness of his abundance will distress assail him: every hand of troubled will come against him.

lesserot@Job:20:23 @ In order to fill his belly, will send out against him the fury of his wrath, and will rain it upon him for his eating.

lesserot@Job:20:25 @ He draweth it, and it cometh out of the body; yea, out of his gall the glittering cometh forth: over him come the terrors.

lesserot@Job:20:27 @ The heavens will lay open his iniquity; and the earth will raise herself up against him.

lesserot@Job:20:29 @ This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and his decreed heritage from God.

lesserot@Job:21:1 @ Then answered Job, and said,

lesserot@Job:21:2 @ Hear, O hear my speech, and let this be wherewith you give consolations.

lesserot@Job:21:3 @ Bear with me that I may indeed speak: and after my speaking, then canst thou mock.

lesserot@Job:21:4 @ As for me,––is against man my complaint? and if this be so, why should my spirit not be impatient?

lesserot@Job:21:5 @ Turn yourselves unto me, and be astounded, and lay your hand upon your mouth.

lesserot@Job:21:6 @ Yea, when I think of it, I am terrified, and shuddering seizeth hold of my flesh.

lesserot@Job:21:9 @ Their houses are at peace without any dread, and no rod of God over them.

lesserot@Job:21:10 @ The bull of each one gendereth, and disappointeth not: the cow of each one calveth, and casteth not her young.

lesserot@Job:21:11 @ They send forth their little ones like a flock, and their children skip about.

lesserot@Job:21:12 @ They sing to the timbrel and harp, and rejoice at the sound of the pipe.

lesserot@Job:21:13 @ They wear out their days in happiness, and in a moment they go down to the nether world.

lesserot@Job:21:14 @ And yet they say unto God, "Depart from us; and the knowledge of thy ways we desire not.

lesserot@Job:21:15 @ What is the Almighty, that we should serve him? and what profit shall we have, if we entreat him urgently?"

lesserot@Job:21:16 @ Lo, not in their hand doth their happiness rest! The counsel of the wicked be far from me.

lesserot@Job:21:17 @ How often is the lamp of the wicked quenched? and how often cometh over them their calamity? and doth distribute their lot in his anger?

lesserot@Job:21:18 @ Are they as straw before the wind, and as chaff which the stealeth away?

lesserot@Job:21:20 @ His own eyes ought to see his downfall, and from the wrath of the Almighty ought he to drink.

lesserot@Job:21:23 @ That this one dieth in his full strength, being wholly at ease and quiet;

lesserot@Job:21:24 @ His vessels being full of healthy fluid, and the marrow of his bones being well moistened:

lesserot@Job:21:25 @ While this other dieth with an embittered soul, and hath never partaken of any happiness;

lesserot@Job:21:26 @ together they must lie down in the dust, and the worms will cover them?

lesserot@Job:21:27 @ Behold, I know your thoughts, and the opinions which ye wrongfully devise against me.

lesserot@Job:21:28 @ For ye say, Where is the house of the noble–minded? and where is the tent of the dwelling–places of the wicked?

lesserot@Job:21:31 @ who will tell him to his face of his way? and who will repay him what he hath done?

lesserot@Job:21:32 @ Yea he will indeed be carried to the grave, and men will quickly think of his monument:

lesserot@Job:21:33 @ Sweet are to him the clods of the valley; and after him succeedeth every man, as those that were before him are without number.

lesserot@Job:21:34 @ How then will ye comfort me with vanity? and of your answers there remaineth only deception.

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

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

lesserot@Job:22:17 @ 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:22:24 @ 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 brightly–shining 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:22:30 @ He will even deliver him who is not guiltless: and thou wilt be delivered by the purity of thy hands.

lesserot@Job:23:1 @ Then answered Job, and said,

lesserot@Job:23:4 @ I would put in order before him my cause, and my mouth would I fill with arguments.

lesserot@Job:23:5 @ I should know the words which he might answer me, and understand what he might say unto me.

lesserot@Job:23:7 @ There would an upright one argue with him; and I should be allowed to escape for ever by my judge.

lesserot@Job:23:8 @ But, lo, I go eastward––and he is not there; and to the west–– and I cannot perceive him;

lesserot@Job:23:9 @ When he doth great things at the north, I behold him not; he hideth himself in the south––and I see him not.

lesserot@Job:23:11 @ On his steps my foot hath held fast: his way have I kept, and swerved not.

lesserot@Job:23:12 @ From the commandment of his lips have I also not moved away: as a fixed statute for me have I treasured up the sayings of his mouth.

lesserot@Job:23:13 @ But he is unchangeably one, and who can turn him? And what his will desireth, even that he doth.

lesserot@Job:23:14 @ For he will bring to completion what hath been destined for me: and like these hath he many other things with him.

lesserot@Job:23:15 @ Therefore am I terrified at his presence: I will reflect, and be in dread of him.

lesserot@Job:23:16 @ Still God hath made timid my heart, and the Almighty hath terrified me;

lesserot@Job:23:17 @ Because I was not destroyed before this darkness, and because he hath not hidden from my face gloom.

lesserot@Job:24:1 @ Why are not times treasured up by the Almighty, and why do his adorers not see his days?

lesserot@Job:24:2 @ remove landmarks: they rob flocks, and feed them.

lesserot@Job:24:5 @ Behold, as wild asses in the wilderness go they forth to their work, rising betimes after prey: the desert yieldeth food for them and for their young men.

lesserot@Job:24:6 @ In the field they reap their food; and in the vineyard of the wicked they gather the fruit.

lesserot@Job:24:7 @ They cause to spend the night naked, without clothing and without any covering in the cold.

lesserot@Job:24:8 @ Through the sweeping rain of the mountains are they made wet, and for want of a shelter do they embrace the rock.

lesserot@Job:24:9 @ The others pluck from the breast the fatherless, and the garment of the poor they take in pledge.

lesserot@Job:24:10 @ They cause him to go naked without clothing, and from the hungry they take away the sheaf:

lesserot@Job:24:11 @ Within their walls do they make oil, they tread their wine–presses, and suffer thirst.

lesserot@Job:24:12 @ Out of a populous city is groaning heard, and the soul of the deadly wounded crieth out: yet God regardeth it not as an offence.

lesserot@Job:24:14 @ With the earliest light riseth the murderer, he slayeth the poor and needy, and in the night he becometh like the thief.

lesserot@Job:24:15 @ And the eye of the adulterer watcheth for the twilight, saying, No eye will see me; and placeth a covering on his face.

lesserot@Job:24:18 @ Swift are such men on the face of the water; accursed is their field on the land; none of them turneth himself to the way, of the vineyards.

lesserot@Job:24:19 @ Drought and heat speedily consume the snow–waters: so doth the grave those who have sinned.

lesserot@Job:24:20 @ The mother that bore such a one will forget him; the worm will feed sweetly on him; he will be no more remembered; and like a tree will wickedness be broken.

lesserot@Job:24:21 @ He ill–treateth the barren that heareth not; and to the widow he acteth not well.

lesserot@Job:24:23 @ To such granteth to be in safety, that he may find support; and His eyes are upon their ways.

lesserot@Job:24:24 @ They are exalted; in but a little while they are no more; and they are brought down low: like all others are they gathered in, and like the top of the ear of corn are they cut off.

lesserot@Job:24:25 @ But if it be not so, who will prove me a liar, and render nought my word?

lesserot@Job:25:1 @ Then answered Bildad the Shuchite, and said,

lesserot@Job:25:2 @ Dominion and dread are with him: he maketh peace in high places.

lesserot@Job:25:3 @ Can the number of his hosts be given? and over whom riseth not his light?

lesserot@Job:25:6 @ How much less the mortal, the mere worm? and the son of earth, the mere maggot?

lesserot@Job:26:1 @ Then answered Job, and said,

lesserot@Job:26:3 @ How hast thou counselled the unwise? and what sound wisdom hast thou made known so plentifully?

lesserot@Job:26:4 @ To whom hast thou told words? and whose spirit came from thee?

lesserot@Job:26:5 @ The departed are called into being beneath the waters, and their inhabitants.

lesserot@Job:26:6 @ Naked is the nether world before him, and there is no covering for the place of corruption.

lesserot@Job:26:8 @ He bound up the waters in his clouds; and the cloud bursteth not under their weight;

lesserot@Job:26:10 @ A fixed limit he compassed off over the face of the waters, for the division of the light and darkness.

lesserot@Job:26:11 @ The pillars of heaven tremble greatly, and are astounded at his rebuke.

lesserot@Job:26:12 @ By his power he split in pieces the sea, and by his understanding he crushed pride:

lesserot@Job:26:13 @ By his breath the heavens beauty; his hand hath created the flying serpent.

lesserot@Job:26:14 @ Lo, these are ends of his ways; for how slight a whisper is heard of him! but the thunder of his mighty deeds who can understand?

lesserot@Job:27:1 @ And Job continued taking up his parable, and said,

lesserot@Job:27:2 @ As God liveth, who hath removed justice from me; and by the Almighty, who hath embittered my soul:

lesserot@Job:27:3 @ All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils;

lesserot@Job:27:6 @ I have laid fast hold on my righteousness, and I will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach me during all my life.

lesserot@Job:27:7 @ Like the wicked is my enemy, and he that riseth up against me like a wrong–doer.

lesserot@Job:27:11 @ I will instruct you concerning what is in the hand of God: which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.

lesserot@Job:27:13 @ This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the portion of tyrants, which they shall receive from the Almighty.

lesserot@Job:27:14 @ If his children be multiplied, it is only for the sword; and his offspring will not be satisfied with bread.

lesserot@Job:27:15 @ Those of his that are left to escape will be buried by death; and his widows will not be able to weep.

lesserot@Job:27:16 @ Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare garments as the clay:

lesserot@Job:27:17 @ He may prepare, but the righteous will clothe himself, and the silver the innocent will divide.

lesserot@Job:27:18 @ He buildeth his house like the moth, and like a hut that a keeper hath made.

lesserot@Job:27:19 @ Rich will he lie down, but will not be gathered: one openeth his eyes, and he is no more.

lesserot@Job:27:21 @ The east wind will lift him up, and he must be gone; and it hurleth him like a storm out of his place.

lesserot@Job:27:22 @ And will cast upon him, and bare no pity: out of his hand will surely escape.

lesserot@Job:27:23 @ Men will clap their hands over him, and will hiss after him out of his place.

lesserot@Job:28:1 @ For truly there is a source for the silver, and a place for the gold which men refine.

lesserot@Job:28:2 @ Iron is taken out of the dust, and the stone is melted into copper.

lesserot@Job:28:3 @ An end doth he set to darkness, and the very utmost limit doth he search out, the stones of darkness, and of the shadow of death.

lesserot@Job:28:6 @ Her stones are the place whence the sapphire cometh; and golden dust is also there;

lesserot@Job:28:7 @ path which no bird of prey knoweth, and which the vulture’s eye hath not surveyed;

lesserot@Job:28:9 @ To the flinty rock he stretcheth forth his hand; he overturneth the mountains from the root.

lesserot@Job:28:10 @ Amid rocks he heweth out canals: and every precious thing doth his eye behold.

lesserot@Job:28:11 @ The various droppings of water he uniteth into streams, and what is hidden he bringeth forth to light.

lesserot@Job:28:12 @ But wisdom––where shall she he found? and where is the place of understanding?

lesserot@Job:28:13 @ Man knoweth not her value: and she is not to be found in the land of the living.

lesserot@Job:28:14 @ The deep saith, Not in me is she: and the sea saith, She is not with me.

lesserot@Job:28:15 @ No fine gold can be given in lieu of her, and silver cannot be weighed out as her price.

lesserot@Job:28:17 @ She cannot be estimated after gold and glass; and not in exchange for her vessels of refined gold

lesserot@Job:28:18 @ Coral and crystal will not be thought of; and the value of wisdom is above pearls.

lesserot@Job:28:20 @ But wisdom––whence cometh she? and where is the place of understanding?

lesserot@Job:28:21 @ Yea, she is hidden from the eyes of all living, and from the fowls of the heavens is she concealed.

lesserot@Job:28:22 @ Perdition and death say, With our ears have we heard a report of her.

lesserot@Job:28:23 @ God understandeth her way, and he knoweth her place;

lesserot@Job:28:25 @ When he imparted weight unto the wind; and the waters he established by measure;

lesserot@Job:28:26 @ When he made a law for the rain, and a way for the lightning of thunders;

lesserot@Job:28:27 @ Then did he see her, and make her known; he established her, and also searched her out.

lesserot@Job:28:28 @ And he said unto man, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to eschew evil is understanding.

lesserot@Job:29:1 @ And Job continued to take up his parable, and said,

lesserot@Job:29:6 @ When I bathed my steps in cream, and the rock poured out near me streamlets of oil!

lesserot@Job:29:8 @ Young men saw me, and hid themselves; and the aged rose up, and remained standing;

lesserot@Job:29:9 @ Princes stopped in the midst of words, and laid their hand on their mouth:

lesserot@Job:29:10 @ The voice of nobles was arrested, and their tongue cleaved to their palate.

lesserot@Job:29:11 @ For the ear that heard me called me happy; and the eye that saw me bore witness for me;

lesserot@Job:29:12 @ Because I delivered the poor that cried, and the fatherless, yea, that had none to help him.

lesserot@Job:29:13 @ The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me; and the heart of the widow I caused to sing for joy.

lesserot@Job:29:14 @ I took righteousness as my garment, and it clothed me: as a robe and a mitre was justice unto me.

lesserot@Job:29:15 @ Eyes was I to the blind; and feet to the lame was I.

lesserot@Job:29:16 @ A father was I to the needy; and the cause of him I knew not I used to investigate.

lesserot@Job:29:17 @ And I broke the cutting–teeth of the wrong–doer, and out of his teeth I cast down his prey.

lesserot@Job:29:18 @ And I said then, "In the midst of my nest shall I depart hence, and like the sand shall I have many days.

lesserot@Job:29:19 @ My root will stand open for the water, and the dew will lodge on my boughs.

lesserot@Job:29:20 @ My glory will ever be new with me, and my bow will acquire fresh strength in my hand."

lesserot@Job:29:21 @ Unto me men listened, and waited, and watched in silence for my counsel

lesserot@Job:29:22 @ After my words they made no reply, and my speech dropped on them.

lesserot@Job:29:23 @ And they waited for me as for the rain, and they opened wide their mouth as for the latter rain.

lesserot@Job:29:24 @ I smiled on those that had lost their confidence; and the light of my countenance they never cast down.

lesserot@Job:29:25 @ I chose their way for them, and I sat as chief, and dwelt as king in his army, as one that comforteth mourners.

lesserot@Job:30:2 @ Yea, what possible use can the strength of their hands be unto me, over whom old age hath passed fruitlessly?

lesserot@Job:30:3 @ Who suffer for want and famine in solitude; who flee into the wilderness darkness, ruin, and desolation;

lesserot@Job:30:4 @ Who crop off mallows by the bushes, and have broom–bush roots as their bread;

lesserot@Job:30:6 @ To dwell in the caverns of the valleys, in holes of the earth, and on naked cliffs.

lesserot@Job:30:8 @ The children of the worthless, yea, the children of the nameless, who were outcasts from the land.

lesserot@Job:30:9 @ But now I am become their song, and I am become a byword unto them.

lesserot@Job:30:10 @ They loathe me, they keep themselves far from me, and from my face they withhold not their spittle.

lesserot@Job:30:11 @ Because he hath loosened the cord of my bow, and afflicted me, they have also cast off the bridle before me.

lesserot@Job:30:12 @ Against my right hand rise up this swarm of worthless youths: they push away my feet, and they level against me their calamity–bringing paths.

lesserot@Job:30:15 @ Terrors have turned their face against me; they chase like the wind my glory: and like a cloud is my happiness passed away.

lesserot@Job:30:16 @ And now my soul is poured out over me; the days of affliction have seized on me;

lesserot@Job:30:17 @ All night it holloweth out my bones out of my body; and my pursuers take no rest.

lesserot@Job:30:19 @ He hath cast me into the mire, and I am become like dust and ashes.

lesserot@Job:30:20 @ I cry aloud unto thee, but thou answerest me not: I stand up, and thou fixest thy regard against me.

lesserot@Job:30:21 @ Thou art changed into a cruel master toward me: with the strength of thy hand thou assailest me.

lesserot@Job:30:22 @ Thou liftest me up to the wind; thou causest me to pass away, and dissolvest in me all wise counsel.

lesserot@Job:30:23 @ For I know that thou wilt bring me back to death, and to the house of assembly for all the living.

lesserot@Job:30:24 @ But doth not a man stretch out his hand among ruins? or doth one not cry out therefrom when he meeteth his downfall?

lesserot@Job:30:26 @ That I hoped for good, but there came evil; and I waited for light, and there came darkness!

lesserot@Job:30:27 @ My bowels heave, and rest not: the days of affliction have overcome me.

lesserot@Job:30:29 @ I am a brother to monsters, and a companion to ostriches.

lesserot@Job:30:30 @ My skin hangeth down black from me, and my bones are burnt from heat.

lesserot@Job:30:31 @ And thus is changed to mourning my harp, and my pipe to the sound of weeping.

lesserot@Job:31:2 @ And what then would have been my portion of God from above? and what lot of the Almighty from on high?

lesserot@Job:31:3 @ Is not calamity for the unjust? and misfortune for the wrong–doers?

lesserot@Job:31:4 @ Behold, he truly seeth my ways, and numbereth all my steps;

lesserot@Job:31:6 @ Let him weigh me then in a righteous balance, and let God acknowledge my integrity,

lesserot@Job:31:7 @ If my step have turned aside from the way, and my heart have walked after my eyes, and if any blemish have cleaved to my hands:

lesserot@Job:31:8 @ Then let me sow, and let another eat; and let what I have growing be rooted out.

lesserot@Job:31:10 @ Then may my wife labor at the mill for another, and may strangers ill–use her;

lesserot@Job:31:12 @ For it would be a fire that consumeth down to the place of corruption, and would root out all my products.

lesserot@Job:31:13 @ If ever I cast aside the justice due to my man–servant and my maid–servant, when they contended with me:

lesserot@Job:31:14 @ What then could I do when God should rise up? and when he should investigate, what could I answer him?

lesserot@Job:31:15 @ Did not he that made me make him born or a woman? and did not the same one fashion us in the womb?

lesserot@Job:31:17 @ Or if ever I ate my bread by myself alone, and the fatherless did not eat thereof;

lesserot@Job:31:18 @ (For from my youth he was brought up with me, as though we were of one father, and I have guided her from my mother’s womb;)

lesserot@Job:31:20 @ If his loins have not blessed me, and if he have not been warmed with the fleece of my sheep;

lesserot@Job:31:21 @ If I have swung my hand against the fatherless, because I saw in the gate those that would help me:

lesserot@Job:31:22 @ Then may my shoulder fall from my shoulder–blade, and my arm be broken from the channel–bone;

lesserot@Job:31:23 @ For dreaded by me was the calamitous punishment of God, and against his highness I can accomplish nothing.

lesserot@Job:31:25 @ If ever I rejoiced because my wealth was abundant, and because my hand had gotten much;

lesserot@Job:31:26 @ If ever I looked at the light when he shone brightly and on the moon walking in splendor:

lesserot@Job:31:27 @ And my heart became misled in secret, and my hand kissed my mouth:

lesserot@Job:31:34 @ Because I dreaded the great multitude, or because the contempt of families did terrify me, so that I kept silence, and dared not to go out of the door; ––

lesserot@Job:31:35 @ Oh who will bring me one that would hear me! behold, here is my plea; may the Almighty answer me; and any record which my opponent may have written,––

lesserot@Job:31:38 @ If my land ever cried out because of me, or if its furrows wept together;

lesserot@Job:31:40 @ Then may instead of wheat, thorns come forth, and instead of barley, cockle. (Here end the words of Job.)

lesserot@Job:32:3 @ And against his three friends was his wrath kindled; because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job.

lesserot@Job:32:6 @ And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite commenced, and said, Young am I in days, and ye are very old: therefore I hesitated and feared to show you what I know.

lesserot@Job:32:7 @ I had said, Days shall speak, and multitude of years shall make wisdom known.

lesserot@Job:32:8 @ But it is the spirit in man, and the breath of the Almighty which giveth them understanding.

lesserot@Job:32:9 @ Not those rich in years must be always wise: neither do the aged constantly understand what is just.

lesserot@Job:32:12 @ And now I understand you fully, and, behold, there is none that convinceth Job, or, that answereth his speeches among you.

lesserot@Job:32:14 @ But he hath not directed any words against me: and with your speeches will I not answer him.

lesserot@Job:32:16 @ And should I wait, because they cannot speak, because they stand stilt and answer no more?

lesserot@Job:32:20 @ I will speak, that I may breathe freer: I will open my lips and answer.

lesserot@Job:32:21 @ On no account will I show undue favor to any man, and to no son of earth will I give flattering titles.

lesserot@Job:33:1 @ Therefore do thou but hear, O Job, my speeches, and give ear to all my words.

lesserot@Job:33:3 @ Out of my straightforward heart my sayings, and my lips utter knowledge clearly.

lesserot@Job:33:4 @ The spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty giveth me life.

lesserot@Job:33:5 @ If thou canst, answer me, array thyself before me, stand forward.

lesserot@Job:33:7 @ Behold, dread of me cannot terrify thee, and my pressure will not be too heavy upon thee.

lesserot@Job:33:8 @ But thou hast said before my ears, and the sound of the words I still hear,

lesserot@Job:33:9 @ "I am pure without transgression, I am quite clean; and there is no iniquity in me:

lesserot@Job:33:16 @ Then doth he lay open the ear of men, and sealeth it with their warning;

lesserot@Job:33:17 @ To remove the son of earth deed and he covereth up pride from man;

lesserot@Job:33:18 @ He withholdeth his soul from the pit, and his life from passing away by the sword.

lesserot@Job:33:19 @ And so is he admonished by pain upon his couch, and all his bones with violent.

lesserot@Job:33:20 @ So that his inclination abhorreth bread, and his soul, the most agreeable food.

lesserot@Job:33:21 @ His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen, and his bones that were not seen stick out.

lesserot@Job:33:22 @ Yea, his soul draweth near unto the pit, and his life to those that slay.

lesserot@Job:33:23 @ If there be now about him one single angel, as defender, one out of a thousand, to tell for man his uprightness:

lesserot@Job:33:24 @ Then is he gracious unto him, and saith, Release him from going down to the pit, I have found an atonement.

lesserot@Job:33:26 @ He will offer his entreaty unto God, and he will receive him in favor, that he may see his face with joy: so doth He recompense unto the mortal his righteousness.

lesserot@Job:33:27 @ He then should assemble men around, and say, "I had sinned, and perverted what is right, yet have I not received a like return."

lesserot@Job:33:28 @ Thus he redeemeth his soul from passing into the pit, and his life will look joyously on the light.

lesserot@Job:33:31 @ Listen well, O Job, hearken unto me: keep silence, and I will truly speak.

lesserot@Job:33:33 @ If not, hearken thou unto me: keep silence, and I will teach thee wisdom.

lesserot@Job:34:1 @ And Elihu commenced, and said,

lesserot@Job:34:2 @ Hear, O ye wise men, my words; and ye that have knowledge, give ear unto me.

lesserot@Job:34:5 @ For Job hath said, "I am righteous; and God hath taken away justice from me.

lesserot@Job:34:8 @ And is on the road to keep company with the wrong–doers, and to walk with men of wickedness?

lesserot@Job:34:10 @ Therefore ye men of sense hearken unto me: far is it from God to practise wickedness; and from the Almighty to do wrong!

lesserot@Job:34:11 @ For the work of a son of earth doth he recompense unto him, and according to the path of man doth he permit things to occur to him.

lesserot@Job:34:14 @ If he were to set his heart upon man, he would gather unto himself his spirit and his breath:

lesserot@Job:34:15 @ All flesh would perish together, and the son of earth would return again unto dust.

lesserot@Job:34:16 @ If then thou wishest to understand, hear this: give ear to the sound of my words.

lesserot@Job:34:18 @ to say to a king, Thou art worthless? and to princes, Ye are wicked?

lesserot@Job:34:19 @ Whereas he is one that showeth no favor to chieftains, and distinguisheth not the rich before the indigent; for all of them are the work of his hands.

lesserot@Job:34:20 @ In a moment will they die, and in the midst of the night; people are moved, and pass away: and the mighty will be removed without a human hand.

lesserot@Job:34:21 @ For big eyes are upon the ways of man, and all his steps doth he see.

lesserot@Job:34:24 @ He breaketh down mighty men without searching, and placeth others in their stead.

lesserot@Job:34:25 @ For the reason that he knoweth their deeds: therefore he overturneth them in the night, and they are crushed.

lesserot@Job:34:27 @ Because they have departed from following him, and have not considered all his ways.

lesserot@Job:34:28 @ Bringing before them the cry of the indigent, and the cry of the afflicted which he had to hear.

lesserot@Job:34:29 @ When he now granteth rest, who will condemn! and when he hideth his face, who can behold him? whether it be against a nation, or against one man, it is the same:

lesserot@Job:34:33 @ Should he then according to thy view send a recompense, because thou hast rejected him? "Because thou must choose, and not I?" and what thou knowest, do speak.

lesserot@Job:34:34 @ Men of sense will say unto me, and every wise man who heareth me,

lesserot@Job:34:35 @ That Job hath not spoken with knowledge, and that his words are without intelligence.

lesserot@Job:34:37 @ For he addeth unto his sin transgression: among us he uttereth too many loud words, and multiplieth his speeches against God.

lesserot@Job:35:1 @ Then commenced Elihu, and said,

lesserot@Job:35:4 @ I will truly reply unto thee with words, and unto thy friends with thee.

lesserot@Job:35:5 @ Look unto the heavens, and see; and gaze on the skies which are higher than thou.

lesserot@Job:35:6 @ If thou sin, what dost thou effect against him? and if thy transgressions be multiplied, what canst thou do unto him?

lesserot@Job:35:7 @ If thou be righteous, what givest thou him? or what doth he accept out of thy hand?

lesserot@Job:35:8 @ A man like thyself thy wickedness may reach, and a son of earth thy righteousness.

lesserot@Job:35:11 @ Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of the heavens?

lesserot@Job:35:14 @ Although thou sayest, thou canst not see him: yet the decision is before him; and do thou wait for him.

lesserot@Job:36:1 @ Then continued Elihu, and said,

lesserot@Job:36:2 @ Wait for me a little, and I will instruct thee; for still some words on God’s behalf.

lesserot@Job:36:3 @ I will lift up my knowledge for him who is afar, and for my Maker will I obtain righteousness.

lesserot@Job:36:5 @ Behold, God is mighty, and despiseth not any: he is mighty in strength of intellect.

lesserot@Job:36:7 @ He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous; but with kings on the throne; yea, he doth establish them for ever, and they are exalted.

lesserot@Job:36:8 @ And if they be bound in fetters, and if they be entangled in the cords of affliction:

lesserot@Job:36:9 @ Then doth he tell them of their work, and of their transgressions, when they had become strong.

lesserot@Job:36:10 @ And he openeth thus their ear to correction, and saith that they should return from wrong–doing.

lesserot@Job:36:11 @ If they hearken and serve, they will spend their days in happiness, and their years in pleasures.

lesserot@Job:36:12 @ But if they hearken not, they will pass away through the sword, and they will perish in want of knowledge.

lesserot@Job:36:14 @ Their soul will die in youth, and their life, among the incestuous.

lesserot@Job:36:15 @ He delivereth the afflicted through his affliction, and openeth through oppression his ear.

lesserot@Job:36:16 @ And also thee hath he incited away from the jaws of distress into a wide space, on the site of which there is no straitness; and what is set on thy table is full of fatness.

lesserot@Job:36:17 @ But if thou art full of the judgment of the wicked: judgment and decree will support each other.

lesserot@Job:36:18 @ For there would be fury, If aught were to incite thee to utter an abundance; and the greatness of the infliction must not mislead thee.

lesserot@Job:36:26 @ Behold, God is great, and we comprehend him not, the number of his years can truly not be searched out.

lesserot@Job:36:29 @ But can understand the outspreadings of the clouds? the tumult of his tabernacle?

lesserot@Job:36:30 @ Behold, he spreadeth out over it his light, and covereth up the roots of the sea.

lesserot@Job:36:32 @ hands he covereth with light; and he commandeth it to strike the one who striveth against him.

lesserot@Job:37:1 @ At this also my heart trembleth, and is moved upward out of its place.

lesserot@Job:37:2 @ Hear, O hear, the rattling of his thunder, and the storm’s roar that goeth out of his mouth.

lesserot@Job:37:3 @ Under the whole heavens he letteth it loose, and his lightning over the ends of the earth.

lesserot@Job:37:4 @ Behind it roareth the thunder; he thundereth with his majestic voice; and he holdeth them not back when his voice is heard.

lesserot@Job:37:6 @ For to the snow he saith, Be thou on the earth: likewise the pouring rain, and to the pouring rains of his strength.

lesserot@Job:37:7 @ He sealeth it on the hand of every man, that all men whom he hath made may know it.

lesserot@Job:37:8 @ Then retire the beasts into dens, and rest in their lairs.

lesserot@Job:37:9 @ Out of chamber cometh the whirlwind, and out of the north, the cold.

lesserot@Job:37:10 @ From the breathing of God ice is given, and the broad waters become solid.

lesserot@Job:37:12 @ And it is turned round about by his guidance, to execute what he commandeth it upon the face of the world, the earth.

lesserot@Job:37:14 @ Give ear unto this, O Job: stand still, and consider well the wonders of God.

lesserot@Job:37:15 @ Dost thou know how God hath imposed on them, and he hath caused the light of his cloud to shine?

lesserot@Job:37:21 @ Yet now men see not the light which is bright in the skies, when the wind hath passed along, and purified them.

lesserot@Job:37:23 @ The Almighty, whom we cannot find out, excellent in power, and in justice, and abounding in righteousness, will not afflict:

lesserot@Job:38:1 @ Then did the Lord address Job out of the storm–wind, and said,

lesserot@Job:38:3 @ Do but gird up like a mighty man thy loins: and I will ask thee, and do thou inform me.

lesserot@Job:38:4 @ Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? tell it, if thou hast any understanding.

lesserot@Job:38:7 @ When altogether sang the morning stars in gladness, and shouted for joy all the sons of God?

lesserot@Job:38:8 @ And who closed up with doors the sea, when, issuing forth, it came out of the deep bosom of the earth?

lesserot@Job:38:9 @ When I made the clouds its garment, and thick fog its swaddling–cloth,

lesserot@Job:38:10 @ And when I decreed for it my law, and set bars and doors,

lesserot@Job:38:11 @ And said, Thus far mayest thou come, but no farther; and here shall be stayed in the pride of thy waves?

lesserot@Job:38:12 @ Didst thou ever, in all thy days, command the morning; didst thou ever assign the morning–dawn its place:

lesserot@Job:38:14 @ She is changed as the sealing–clay: and stand as though newly clad.

lesserot@Job:38:15 @ And from the wicked is their light withdrawn, and the high–raised arm is broken.

lesserot@Job:38:16 @ Didst thou ever penetrate as far as the springs of the sea? or wander through the bottom of the deep?

lesserot@Job:38:18 @ Hast thou a clear understanding of the breadth of the earth? Tell it, if thou knowest it all.

lesserot@Job:38:19 @ Where is the way the light dwelleth? and the darkness––where is its place,

lesserot@Job:38:20 @ That thou mightest take each to its boundary, and that thou mightest mark the pathways to its house?

lesserot@Job:38:21 @ Thou knowest it; because thou wast then born, and the number of thy days is great!

lesserot@Job:38:23 @ Which I have reserved for the time of distress, for the day of fight and battle?

lesserot@Job:38:25 @ Who hath divided off watercourses for the overflowing rain, and a way for the lightning thunders,

lesserot@Job:38:26 @ To bring rain on a land, void of men; on a wilderness wherein no son of earth;

lesserot@Job:38:27 @ To satisfy waste and desolate lands; and to promote the growth of the tender grass?

lesserot@Job:38:29 @ Out of whose womb cometh forth the ice? and the hoary frost of heaven––who giveth birth to it?

lesserot@Job:38:30 @ like a stone the waters are congealed, and the face of the deep is bound in fetters?

lesserot@Job:38:31 @ Canst thou bind together the chains of the Pleiades, or loosen the bands of Orion?

lesserot@Job:38:35 @ Canst thou send out lightnings, that they may go, and say unto thee, Here are we?

lesserot@Job:38:36 @ Who hath put wisdom in the dark clouds? or who hath given understanding to the bright meteors?

lesserot@Job:38:38 @ When the dust is poured out as molten metal, and the clods are made to cleave fast together?

lesserot@Job:38:39 @ Dost thou hunt for the lioness her prey? and suppliest thou the food for the young lions,

lesserot@Job:38:41 @ Who provideth for the raven his provision? when his young ones cry unto God, and wander about for lack of food?

lesserot@Job:39:2 @ Numberest thou the months of gestation which they complete and knowest thou the time when they bring forth?

lesserot@Job:39:4 @ Their little ones become strong; they grow up in the open field; they go forth, and return not unto them.

lesserot@Job:39:6 @ To whom I assigned the wilderness as his house, and the salty land as his dwellings.

lesserot@Job:39:7 @ He laugheth at the noise of a town, and the shoutings of the driver he heareth not.

lesserot@Job:39:8 @ What he espieth on the mountains is his pasture, and after every green thing doth he search.

lesserot@Job:39:11 @ Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? and wilt thou leave to him thy labor?

lesserot@Job:39:12 @ Wilt thou confide in him, that he should bring home thy seed, and gather it into thy threshing–floor?––

lesserot@Job:39:13 @ The wing of the ostrich moveth joyfully: hath she the pinions and plumage of the careful stork?

lesserot@Job:39:14 @ for she intrusteth her eggs to the earth, and letteth them be hatched out on the dust:

lesserot@Job:39:15 @ And she forgetteth that a foot may crush them, or that the beast of the field may stamp them down.

lesserot@Job:39:17 @ Because God hath denied her wisdom, and he hath not imparted to her understanding.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:3 @ I resolved in my heart to indulge my body with wine, while my heart guideth itself with wisdom; and to lay fast hold on folly, till I might see what it is that is good for the sons of men, which they should do under the heavens during the number of the days of their life.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:5 @ I made myself gardens and orchards, and I planted therein trees of all kinds of fruit;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:7 @ I bought men–servants and maid–servants, and I had likewise those born in my house; I had also great possessions of cattle and flocks above all that had been before me in Jerusalem.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:8 @ I gathered unto myself also silver and gold, and the choice treasures of kings and of the provinces: I procured myself male singers and female singers, and the delights of the sons of men, wagons and chariots.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:9 @ So was I great, and obtained more than all that had been before me in Jerusalem: also my wisdom remained with me.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:10 @ And whatsoever my eyes desired I refused them not; I withheld not my heart from any joy; for my heart was rejoiced with all my toil, and this was my portion of all my toil.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:11 @ But when I turned myself on all my works that my hands had wrought, and on the toil that I had toiled to accomplish: then, behold, all was vanity and a torture of the spirit, and there was no profit under the sun.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:12 @ And then I turned myself to behold wisdom, and madness, and folly; for what the man that cometh after the king? that which have done already.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:15 @ Then said I in my heart, The same that befalleth the fool will also befall even me: and why have I then been wiser? Then spoke I in my heart, that this is also vanity.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:16 @ For there is no recollection of the wise any more than of the fool for ever: seeing that which hath long ago been will, in the days that are coming, all be forgotten. And how doth the wise die equally with the fool!

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:17 @ Therefore I hated life; because I felt displeased with the work that is wrought under the sun; for all is vanity and a torture of the spirit.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:19 @ And who knoweth, whether he will be a wise man or a fool? yet will he have full sway over all my toil wherein I have toiled, and wherein I have shown myself wise under the sun. Also this is vanity.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:21 @ For there is many a man whose toil is in wisdom, and in knowledge, and with energy; yet to a man that hath not toiled therefore must he give it as his portion. Also this is vanity and a great evil.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:22 @ For what doth a man obtain of all his toil, and of the torture of his heart, wherewith he toileth under the sun?

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:23 @ For all his days are full of pains, and vexation is his employment: yea, even in the night his heart taketh not rest. Also this is vanity.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:24 @ It is not a good thing in man that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy happiness for his toil. Also this have I seen, that it cometh out of the hand of God.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:2:26 @ For to a man who is good in his presence giveth wisdom, and knowledge, and joy; but to the sinner he giveth employment, to gather up and to bring together, that he may give it to him that is good before God. Also this is vanity and a torture of the spirit.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:1 @ For every thing there is a season; and a time is for every pursuit under the heavens.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:2 @ a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what hath been planted;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:3 @ A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:4 @ A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:5 @ A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather up stones; a time to embrace, and a time to be far from embracing;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:6 @ A time to seek, and a time to let things be lost; a time to keep, and a time to throw away;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:7 @ A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:8 @ A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:12 @ I know that there is nothing good in them, but for every one to rejoice and to do what is good during his life.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:13 @ For also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy what is good for all his toil, is likewise a gift of God.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:14 @ I know that whatsoever God doth, that will be for ever; to it nothing can be added, and from it there is nothing to be diminished: and God hath so made it, that men should be afraid of him.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:15 @ That which hath been hath long since appeared; and what is to be hath already been; and God seeketh that which is sped away.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:16 @ And moreover I have seen under the sun, the place of justice, even there was wickedness; and the place of righteousness, even there was wickedness.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:17 @ I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the wicked; for there is a time for every pursuit; and on account of every deed there.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:18 @ I said in my heart concerning the speaking of the sons of men, that God might make it clear to them, and that they might see that they by themselves are but beasts.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:20 @ Every thing goeth unto one place: every thing came from the dust, and every thing returneth to the dust.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:21 @ Who knoweth the spirit of the sons of man that ascendeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that descendeth downward to the earth?

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:3:22 @ And so did I perceive that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his portion; for who can bring him to look with pleasure on what will be after him?

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:1 @ And I turned about, and beheld all the oppressed that are made so under the sun: and, behold, there are the tears of the oppressed, and they have no comforter; and from the hand of their oppressors they suffer violence; and they have no comforter.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:3 @ And as happier than both of them, him who hath not yet come into being, who hath not seen the evil–doing that is done under the sun.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:4 @ Again, I beheld all the toil, and all the energy in doing, that it is the envy of one man of his neighbor. Also this is vanity and a torture of the spirit.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:5 @ The fool foldeth his hands together, and eateth his own flesh.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:6 @ Better is a handful of quiet, than both the hands full of toil and torture of spirit.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:7 @ Then I turned about, and I saw a vanity under the sun.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:8 @ There is one alone, and he hath not a companion; yea, he hath neither son nor brother: yet is there no end to all his toil; his eye also is not satisfied with riches. Yet for whom do I toil, and deprive my soul of good? Also this is vanity, yea, it is a bad employment.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:12 @ And if a man could overpower him, the single one, two would stand up against him: and a threefold cord cannot quickly be torn asunder.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:13 @ Better is a poor and a wise youth than an old and foolish king, who knoweth not how to be admonished any more.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:15 @ I have seen all the living who walk under the sun, being with the second child that is to stand up in his stead.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:4:16 @ There was no end to all the people, to all that have been before them: they also that come after will not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and a torture of the spirit.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:1 @ There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is great on men:

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:2 @ a man to whom God hath given riches, property, and honor, and nothing is wanting for his soul of all that he longeth for: yet God empowereth him not to eat thereof, but a stranger will consume it. This is vanity, and it is an evil disease.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:3 @ If a man were to beget a hundred children, and live many years, so that the days of his years were many, and his soul were not satisfied with what is good, and he have not had even a burial: then do I say, that an untimely birth is better than he.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:4 @ For in vanity it came, and in darkness it departeth, and with darkness will its name be covered.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:5 @ Moreover it never saw the sun, and knew nothing: this hath more rest than the other.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:6 @ Yea, though he were to live a thousand years twice told, and had not seen any good–– doth not every one go to one place?

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:7 @ All the toil of a man is for his mouth; and yet is his desire never filled.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:9 @ Better is what one seeth with the eyes than the wandering of the desire. Also this is vanity and a torture of the spirit.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:6:10 @ That which hath been is already called by its name, and it is known that he is a man: and he is not able to contend with him that is mightier than he.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:1 @ A good name is better than precious oil, and the day of death, better than the day of one’s birth.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:2 @ It is better to go to the house of mourning than to go to the house of feasting; inasmuch as that is the end of all men: and let the living lay it to his heart.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:7 @ For oppression maketh a wise man mad; and bribery corrupteth the heart.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:15 @ All things have I seen in the days of my vanity: there is many a righteous man that perisheth in his righteousness, and there is many a wicked man that liveth long in his wickedness.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:17 @ Be not wicked over much, and be no fool: why wouldst thou die before thy time?

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:18 @ It is good that thou shouldst take hold of that, and that also from this thou withdraw not thy hand; for he that feareth God will come forth out of them all.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:20 @ For no man is so righteous upon earth, that he should do always good, and never sin.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:24 @ Far is what formerly was so, and what was deep remaineth deep: who can find it out?

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:25 @ Then I turned myself about together with my heart to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and experience, and to know the wickedness of folly, and the foolishness of madness.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:26 @ And I find as more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and whose hands are bonds: he that is deemed good before God will escape from her; but the sinner will be caught by her.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:7:28 @ What my soul constantly sought, but I found it not; one man among a thousand did I find; but a woman among all these did I not find.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:1 @ Who is like the wise? and who knoweth the explanation of a thing? a man’s wisdom enlighteneth his face, and the boldness of his face will be lessened.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:2 @ I, Keep the king’s command, and that which regardeth the oath by God.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:4 @ Because the word of a king is powerful; and who may say unto him, What doest thou?––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:5 @ Whoso keepeth the commandment will experience no evil thing: and a wise man’s heart knoweth both time and the just consequence.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:6 @ Because for every pursuit there is a time and a just consequence; for the evil of man heavily upon him.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:8 @ No man hath control over the spirit to detain the spirit; and there is no control over the day of death; and there is no representation in that war; and wickedness will not deliver those that practise it.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:9 @ All this have I seen, and directed my heart unto every work that is done under the sun: there is a time when one man ruleth over another to his own injury.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:10 @ Then also did I see the wicked buried, who had gone to their rest; but those who had acted correctly had to go away from the holy place, and were forgotten in the city. Also this is vanity.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:12 @ But let a sinner do evil a hundred times, and withhold long his punishment from him; still do I truly know for certain that it will be well with those that fear God, because they are afraid of him;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:13 @ And that it will not be well with the wicked, and that he will not endure many days, like the shadow; because he is not afraid of God.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:15 @ Therefore do I praise joyfulness, that there is nothing better for man under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be joyful; for this will adhere to him in his toil, during the days of his life which God hath given him under the sun.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:16 @ When I applied my heart to know wisdom, and to see the employment that is done upon the earth, how even neither by day nor by night sleep is seen in the eyes of some men:

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:8:17 @ Then did I see the whole work of God, that a man is not able to find out the work that is done under the sun; inasmuch as though a man were to toil to seek for it, he would yet not find it; and even if the wise were to think to know it, he would yet not be able to find it.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:1 @ For all this did I reflect over in my heart and to explain all this, that the righteous, and the wise, and their services, are in the hand of God: that man knoweth neither love nor hatred; it is all before them;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:2 @ Every thing as it is to happen to all; there is but one occurrence for the righteous, and for the wicked; for the good and for the clean, and for the unclean; and for him that sacrificeth, and for him that sacrificeth not; as is the good, so is the sinner; he that sweareth, as he that feareth an oath.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:3 @ This is an evil among all things that are done under the sun, that there is one occurrence for all, and that also the heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and that madness is in their heart while they live, and after this they go to the dead.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:6 @ Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, are now already lost; and they will have never more a portion in all that is done under the sun.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:7 @ Go, eat with joy thy bread, and drink with a merry heart thy wine, if God have already received thy works in favor.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:8 @ At all times let thy garments be white, and let oil not be wanting on thy head.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:9 @ Enjoy life with the wife whom thou lovest all the days of the life of thy vanity, which God hath given thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity; for this is thy portion in this life, and in thy toil with which thou toilest under the sun.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:10 @ Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do with thy might, that do; for there is no work, nor experience, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the nether world, whither thou goest.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:11 @ I turned about, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the mighty; and that also the wise have no bread, nor yet the men of understanding riches, nor yet men of knowledge favor; but time and fate will overtake them all.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:12 @ For man also knoweth not his time, like the fishes that are caught in an evil net, and like the birds that are caught in the snare: like these are the sons of men ensnared at an evil time, when it falleth upon them suddenly.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:13 @ Also in this manner have I seen wisdom under the sun, and it seemed great unto me:

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:14 @ There was a little city, and the men therein were few; and there came against it a great king, who enclosed it, and built around it great works of siege;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:15 @ But there was found in it a poor wise man, and he delivered the city by his wisdom; yet no man had thought of that same poor man.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:9:16 @ Then said I, Wisdom is better than might: although the poor man’s wisdom is held in contempt, and his words are not heard.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:1 @ Dead flies cause the precious oil of the apothecary to become stinking and foaming; so doth a little folly him that is valued for wisdom and honor.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:2 @ The heart of a wise man is at his right hand; but the heart of a fool is at his left.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:3 @ Yea also, on whatever way the fool walketh, doth he lack proper sense, and he saith to all that he is a fool.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:6 @ Folly is set in great high places, and the rich sit in lowness.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:7 @ I have seen servants on horses, and princes walking like servants upon the ground.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:8 @ He that diggeth a pit will fall into it; and him who breaketh down a fence––a serpent will bite him.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:9 @ Whoso removeth stones will be hurt through them; and he that cleaveth wood will be endangered thereby.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:10 @ If the iron be blunt, and man do not whet the edge, then must he exert more strength; but the advantage of making it properly sharp is wisdom.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:13 @ The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness; and the last that cometh out of his mouth is evil–bringing madness.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:14 @ The fool also multiplieth words; a man cannot know what is to be; and what is to be after him, who can tell him?

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:16 @ Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is lowminded, and when thy princes eat in the morning!

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:17 @ Happy art thou, O land, when thy king is noble–spirited, and thy princes eat in proper time, for strengthening, and not for gluttony!––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:18 @ Through slothful hands the rafters will sink; and through idleness of the hands the house will become leaky.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:19 @ For gay pleasure they prepare a feast, and wine is to make the living joyful; but money procureth all things.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:10:20 @ Even in thy thought thou must not curse a king; and in thy bed–chambers do not curse the rich; for a bird of the air can carry the sound, and that which hath wings can tell the word.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:11:2 @ Give a portion to seven, and also to eight: for thou knowest not what evil may come upon the earth.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:11:3 @ If the clouds be full of rain, they will empty it out upon the earth; and if the tree fall toward the south, or toward the north, on the place where the tree falleth, there will it remain.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:11:4 @ He that watcheth the wind will not sow; and he that gazeth on the clouds will not reap.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:11:6 @ In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening let not thy hand rest; for thou knowest not which will succeed, whether this or that, or whether both of them will be alike good.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:11:7 @ Truly the light is sweet, and it is a pleasant thing for the eyes to see the sun;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:11:8 @ For if a man live many years, let him rejoice in them all; and let him remember the days of darkness; for they will be many; all that cometh is vanity.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:11:9 @ Rejoice, O young man, in thy childhood; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youthful vigor, and walk firmly in the ways of thy heart, and in thy eyes see: but know thou, that concerning all these things God will bring thee into judgment.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:11:10 @ And remove vexation from thy heart, and cause evil to pass away from thy body; for childhood and the time when the head is black are vanity.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:12:2 @ While the sun, and the light, and the moon, and the stars, are not yet darkened, and the clouds return not again after the rain;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:12:3 @ On the day when the watchmen of the house will tremble and the men of might will bend themselves, and the grinders stand idle, because they are become few, and those be darkened that look through the windows;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:12:4 @ And when the two doors on the streets will be locked, while the sound of the mill becometh dull, and man riseth up at the voice of the bird, and all the daughters of song are brought low;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:12:5 @ Also when men will be afraid of every elevation, and are terrified on every way, and the almond–tree will refuse, and the locust will drag itself slowly along, and the desire will gainsay compliance; because man goeth to his eternal home, and the mourners go about the streets;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:12:6 @ While the silver cord is not yet torn loose, and the golden bowl is not crushed, and the pitcher is not broken at the fountain, and the wheel is not crushed at the cistern;

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:12:7 @ When the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return unto God who gave it.––

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:12:9 @ And in addition to this that Koheleth was wise, he continually also taught the people knowledge, and he probed, and searched out, and composed many proverbs.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:12:10 @ Koheleth sought to find out acceptable words, and that which would be written down uprightly, even words of truth.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:12:11 @ The words of the wise are like goads, and like nails fastened the men of the assemblies, which are given by one shepherd.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:12:12 @ But more than all these, my son, take warning for thyself: the making of many books would have no end; and much preaching is a weariness of the flesh.

lesserot@Ecclesiastes:12:13 @ The end of the matter is, let us hear the whole: Fear God, and keep his commandments; for this is the whole man.

lesserot@Songs:1:4 @ Oh draw me, after thee will we run: the king hath brought me into his chambers; we will be glad and rejoice in thee; we will recall thy caresses, more than wine; without deceit love thee.––

lesserot@Songs:1:8 @ If thou knowest this not, O thou fairest of women, go but forth in the footsteps of the flock, and feed thy kids around the shepherds’ dwellings.––

lesserot@Songs:1:17 @ The beams of our houses are cedars and our wainscoting of cypress–trees.

lesserot@Songs:2:3 @ Like the apple–tree among the trees of the forest, so is my friend among the young men: under his shadow do I ardently wish to sit, and his fruit is sweet to my palate.

lesserot@Songs:2:4 @ He brought me to the banqueting–house, and his banner over me was love.

lesserot@Songs:2:6 @ Oh that his left hand might be under my head, and that his right might embrace me.

lesserot@Songs:2:7 @ I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of the field, that ye awaken not, nor excite my love, till it please.––

lesserot@Songs:2:9 @ My friend is like a roebuck or the fawn of the hinds: behold, there he standeth behind our wall, looking in at the windows, seeing through the lattice.

lesserot@Songs:2:10 @ My friend commenced, and said unto me, Rise thee up, my beloved, my fair one, and come along.

lesserot@Songs:2:11 @ For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone its way.

lesserot@Songs:2:12 @ The flowers are seen in the land; the time of the singing is come, and the voice of the turtle–dove is heard in our land;

lesserot@Songs:2:13 @ The fig–tree perfumeth its green figs, and the vines with young grapes give forth a smell. Arise thee, my beloved, my fair one, and come along.

lesserot@Songs:2:14 @ O my dove, who art in the clefts of the rock, in the recesses of the cliffs, let me see thy countenance, let me hear thy voice; for thy voice is sweet, and thy countenance is comely.––

lesserot@Songs:2:16 @ My friend is mine, and I am his––that feedeth among the lilies.

lesserot@Songs:2:17 @ Until the day become cool, and the shadows flee away, turn about, my friend, and be thou like the roebuck or the fawn of the hinds upon the mountains of separation.

lesserot@Songs:3:2 @ Oh, I must rise now, and go about in the city in the streets, and in the open places; I will seek him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.

lesserot@Songs:3:4 @ Scarcely had I passed away from them, when I found him whom my soul loveth: I laid fast hold of him, and would not let him go, until I had brought him into my mother’s house, and into the chamber of her that had born me.

lesserot@Songs:3:5 @ I adjure you, ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of the field, that ye awaken not, nor excite my love, till it please.––

lesserot@Songs:3:6 @ Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness, like pillars of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, with all spicy powders of the merchant?

lesserot@Songs:3:11 @ Go forth, and look, O ye daughters of Zion, on king Solomon, with the crown wherewith his mother hath crowned him on the day of his espousals, and on the day of the joy in his heart.

lesserot@Songs:4:2 @ Thy teeth are like a flock of well–selected sheep, which are come up from the washing, all of which bear twins, and there is not one among them that is deprived of her young.

lesserot@Songs:4:3 @ Like a thread of scarlet are thy lips, and thy mouth is comely: like the half of a pomegranate is the upper part of thy cheek behind thy vail.

lesserot@Songs:4:4 @ Thy neck is like the tower of David built on terraces, a thousand shields hang–thereon, all the quivers of the mighty men.

lesserot@Songs:4:6 @ Until the day became cool, and the shadows flee away, will I get me to the mountain of myrrh, and to the hill of frankincense.

lesserot@Songs:4:7 @ Thou art altogether beautiful, my beloved, and there is no blemish on thee.––

lesserot@Songs:4:8 @ Come with me from Lebanon, O bride, with me from Lebanon: look about from the top of Amanah, from the top of Senir and Chermon, from the lions’ dens, from the leopards’ mountains.

lesserot@Songs:4:10 @ How beautiful are thy caresses, O my sister, bride! how much more pleasant are thy caresses than wine! and the smell of thy fragrant oils more than all spices.

lesserot@Songs:4:11 @ Of sweet honey drop thy lips, O bride: honey and milk are under thy tongue; and the scent of thy garments is like the scent of Lebanon.

lesserot@Songs:4:13 @ Thy sprouts are an orchard of pomegranates, with precious fruits, copher and spikenard;

lesserot@Songs:4:14 @ Spikenard and saffron; calamus and cinnamon, with all the trees of frankincense; myrrh and aloes, with all the chief of spices;

lesserot@Songs:4:15 @ A garden–spring, a well of living waters, and flowing down from Lebanon.––

lesserot@Songs:4:16 @ Awake, O north wind; and come thou, O south; blow over my garden, that its spices may flow out. Let my friend come into his garden, and eat its precious fruits.––

lesserot@Songs:5:2 @ I slept, but my heart was awake: the voice of my beloved that knocked, "Open for me, my sister, my beloved, my dove, my guiltless one; for my head is filled with dew, and my locks with the drops of the night."

lesserot@Songs:5:4 @ My friend stretched forth his hand through the opening, and my inmost parts were moved for him.

lesserot@Songs:5:5 @ I rose up myself to open for my friend; and my hands dropped with myrrh, and my fingers with fluid myrrh, upon the handles of the lock.

lesserot@Songs:5:6 @ I indeed opened for my beloved; but my beloved had vanished, and was gone: my soul had failed me while he was speaking; I sought him, but I could not find him; I called him, but he answered me not.

lesserot@Songs:5:10 @ My friend is white and ruddy, distinguished among ten thousand.

lesserot@Songs:5:11 @ His head is bright as the finest gold, his locks are like waving foliage, and black as a raven.

lesserot@Songs:5:14 @ His hands are like wheels of gold beset with the chrysolite: his body, an image made of ivory overlaid with sapphires.

lesserot@Songs:5:16 @ His palate is full of sweets, and every thing in him is agreeable. This is my friend, and this is my beloved, O daughters of Jerusalem.––

lesserot@Songs:6:2 @ My beloved is gone down to his garden, to the beds of spices, to feed in the gardens, and to gather lilies.

lesserot@Songs:6:3 @ I am my friend’s, and my friend is mine: he that feedeth among the lilies.––

lesserot@Songs:6:6 @ Thy teeth are like a flock of ewes which are come up from the washing, all of which bear twins, and there is not one among them that is deprived of her young.

lesserot@Songs:6:8 @ Sixty are the queens, and eighty the concubines, and the young women without number;

lesserot@Songs:6:9 @ But one alone is my dove, my guiltless one; she is the only one of her mother, she is the chosen of her that bore her: maidens see her, and call her happy; yea, queens and concubines, and praise her.

lesserot@Songs:8:1 @ Oh that some one would make thee as my brother that hath sucked my mother’s breasts! should I then find thee without, I would kiss thee; and yet, people would not despise me.

lesserot@Songs:8:3 @ Oh that his left hand might be under my head, and that his right hand might embrace me.
