1 Wherefore 199, Job 347, I pray thee, hear 8085 my speeches 4405, and hearken 238 to all my words 1697.
2 Behold, now I have opened 6605 my mouth 6310, my tongue 3956 hath spoken 1696 in my mouth 2441.
3 My words 561 shall be of the uprightness 3476 of my heart 3820: and my lips 8193 shall utter 4448 knowledge 1847 clearly 1305.
4 The Spirit 7307 of God 410 hath made 6213 me, and the breath 5397 of the Almighty 7706 hath given me life 2421.
5 If thou canst 3201 answer 7725 me, set thy words in order 6186 before 6440 me, stand up 3320.
6 Behold, I am according to thy wish 6310 in God's 410 stead: I also am formed 7169 out of the clay 2563.
7 Behold, my terror 367 shall not make thee afraid 1204, neither shall my hand 405 be heavy 3513 upon thee.
8 Surely thou hast spoken 559 in mine hearing 241, and I have heard 8085 the voice 6963 of thy words 4405, saying,
9 I am clean 2134 without transgression 6588, I am innocent 2643; neither is there iniquity 5771 in me.
10 Behold, he findeth 4672 occasions 8569 against me, he counteth 2803 me for his enemy 341,
11 He putteth 7760 my feet 7272 in the stocks 5465, he marketh 8104 all my paths 734.
12 Behold, in this thou art not just 6663: I will answer 6030 thee, that God 433 is greater 7235 than man 582.
13 Why dost thou strive 7378 against him? for he giveth not account 6030 of any of his matters 1697.
14 For God 410 speaketh 1696 once 259, yea twice 8147, yet man perceiveth 7789 it not.
15 In a dream 2472, in a vision 2384 of the night 3915, when deep 8639 sleep falleth 5307 upon men 582, in slumberings 8572 upon the bed 4904;
16 Then he openeth 1540 the ears 241 of men 582, and sealeth 2856 their instruction 4561,
17 That he may withdraw 5493 man 120 from his purpose 4639, and hide 3680 pride 1466 from man 1397.
18 He keepeth back 2820 his soul 5315 from the pit 7845, and his life 2416 from perishing 5674 by the sword 7973.
19 He is chastened 3198 also with pain 4341 upon his bed 4904, and the multitude 7230 7379 of his bones 6106 with strong 386 pain:
20 So that his life 2416 abhorreth 2092 bread 3899, and his soul 5315 dainty 8378 meat 3978.
21 His flesh 1320 is consumed away 3615, that it cannot be seen 7210; and his bones 6106 that were not seen 7200 stick out 8192 8205.
22 Yea, his soul 5315 draweth near 7126 unto the grave 7845, and his life 2416 to the destroyers 4191.
23 If there 3426 be a messenger 4397 with him, an interpreter 3887, one 259 among a thousand 505, to shew 5046 unto man 120 his uprightness 3476:
24 Then he is gracious 2603 unto him, and saith 559, Deliver 6308 him from going down 3381 to the pit 7845: I have found 4672 a ransom 3724.
25 His flesh 1320 shall be fresher 7375 than a child's 5290: he shall return 7725 to the days 3117 of his youth 5934:
26 He shall pray 6279 unto God 433, and he will be favourable 7521 unto him: and he shall see 7200 his face 6440 with joy 8643: for he will render 7725 unto man 582 his righteousness 6666.
27 He looketh 7789 upon men 582, and if any say 559, I have sinned 2398, and perverted 5753 that which was right 3477, and it profited 7737 me not;
28 He will deliver 6299 his soul 5315 from going 5674 into the pit 7845, and his life 2416 shall see 7200 the light 216.
29 Lo, all these things worketh 6466 God 410 oftentimes 6471 7969 with man 1397,
30 To bring back 7725 his soul 5315 from the pit 7845, to be enlightened 215 with the light 216 of the living 2416.
31 Mark well 7181, O Job 347, hearken 8085 unto me: hold thy peace 2790, and I will speak 1696.
32 If thou hast 3426 any thing to say 4405, answer 7725 me: speak 1696, for I desire 2654 to justify 6663 thee.
33 If not, hearken 8085 unto me: hold thy peace 2790, and I shall teach 502 thee wisdom 2451.
