Wherefore, Job, I pray thee, hear my speeches, and hearken to all my words. |
2
|
Behold, now I have opened my mouth, my tongue hath spoken in my mouth. |
3
|
My words [shall be of] the uprightness of my heart: and my lips shall utter knowledge clearly. |
4
|
The Spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life. |
5
|
If thou canst answer me, set [thy words] in order before me, stand up. |
6
|
Behold, I [am] according to thy wish in God’s stead: I also am formed out of the clay. |
7
|
Behold, my terror shall not make thee afraid, neither shall my hand be heavy upon thee. |
8
|
Surely thou hast spoken in mine hearing, and I have heard the voice of [thy] words, [saying, ] |
9
|
I am clean without transgression, I [am] innocent; neither [is there] iniquity in me. |
10
|
Behold, he findeth occasions against me, he counteth me for his enemy, |
11
|
He putteth my feet in the stocks, he marketh all my paths. |
12
|
Behold, [in] this thou art not just: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man. |
13
|
Why dost thou strive against him? for he giveth not account of any of his matters. |
14
|
For God speaketh once, yea twice, [yet man] perceiveth it not. |
15
|
In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed; |
16
|
Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction, |
17
|
That he may withdraw man [from his] purpose, and hide pride from man. |
18
|
He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword. |
19
|
He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong [pain: ] |
20
|
So that his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty meat. |
21
|
His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones [that] were not seen stick out. |
22
|
Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers. |
23
|
If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man his uprightness: |
24
|
Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom. |
25
|
His flesh shall be fresher than a child’s: he shall return to the days of his youth: |
26
|
He shall pray unto God, and he will be favourable unto him: and he shall see his face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness. |
27
|
He looketh upon men, and [if any] say, I have sinned, and perverted [that which was] right, and it profited me not; |
28
|
He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light. |
29
|
Lo, all these [things] worketh God oftentimes with man, |
30
|
To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living. |
31
|
Mark well, O Job, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I will speak. |
32
|
If thou hast any thing to say, answer me: speak, for I desire to justify thee. |
33
|
If not, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I shall teach thee wisdom. |
