1 Then Eliphaz 464 the Temanite 8489 answered 6030 and said 559,
2 If we assay 5254 to commune 1697 with thee, wilt thou be grieved 3811? but who can 3201 withhold 6113 himself from speaking 4405?
3 Behold, thou hast instructed 3256 many 7227, and thou hast strengthened 2388 the weak 7504 hands 3027.
4 Thy words 4405 have upholden 6965 him that was falling 3782, and thou hast strengthened 553 the feeble 3766 knees 1290.
5 But now it is come 935 upon thee, and thou faintest 3811; it toucheth 5060 thee, and thou art troubled 926.
6 Is not this thy fear 3374, thy confidence 3690, thy hope 8615, and the uprightness 8537 of thy ways 1870?
7 Remember 2142, I pray thee, who ever perished 6, being innocent 5355? or where 375 were the righteous 3477 cut off 3582?
8 Even as I have seen 7200, they that plow 2790 iniquity 205, and sow 2232 wickedness 5999, reap 7114 the same.
9 By the blast 5397 of God 433 they perish 6, and by the breath 7307 of his nostrils 639 are they consumed 3615.
10 The roaring 7581 of the lion 738, and the voice 6963 of the fierce lion 7826, and the teeth 8127 of the young lions 3715, are broken 5421.
11 The old lion 3918 perisheth 6 for lack 1097 of prey 2964, and the stout lion's 3833 whelps 1121 are scattered abroad 6504.
12 Now a thing 1697 was secretly brought 1589 to me, and mine ear 241 received 3947 a little 8102 thereof.
13 In thoughts 5587 from the visions 2384 of the night 3915, when deep sleep 8639 falleth 5307 on men 582,
14 Fear 6343 came 7122 upon me, and trembling 7461, which made all 7230 my bones 6106 to shake 6342.
15 Then a spirit 7307 passed 2498 before my face 6440; the hair 8185 of my flesh 1320 stood up 5568:
16 It stood still 5975, but I could not discern 5234 the form 4758 thereof: an image 8544 was before mine eyes 5869, there was silence 1827, and I heard 8085 a voice 6963, saying,
17 Shall mortal man 582 be more just 6663 than God 433? shall a man 1397 be more pure 2891 than his maker 6213?
18 Behold, he put no trust 539 in his servants 5650; and his angels 4397 he charged 7760 with folly 8417:
19 How much less 637 in them that dwell 7931 in houses 1004 of clay 2563, whose foundation 3247 is in the dust 6083, which are crushed 1792 before 6440 the moth 6211?
20 They are destroyed 3807 from morning 1242 to evening 6153: they perish 6 for ever 5331 without any regarding 7760 it.
21 Doth not their excellency 3499 which is in them go away 5265? they die 4191, even without wisdom 2451.
