was the greatest <01419 +gadowl > of all <03605 +kol > the men

<01121 +ben > of the east <06924 +qedem > .

01 : 04 . And his sons <01121 +ben > went <01980 +halak > and

feasted <04960 +mishteh > [ in their ] houses <01004 +bayith > ,

every <00376 +>iysh > one <00376 +>iysh > his day <03117 +yowm >

their three <07969 +shalowsh > sisters <00269 +>achowth > to eat

<00398 +>akal > and to drink <08354 +shathah > with them .

01 : 05 And it was so , when <03588 +kiy > the days <03117 +yowm

and rose <07925 +shakam > up early <07925 +shakam > in the

Thus <03602 +kakah > did <06213 +<asah > Job <00347 +>Iyowb >

continually .

01 : 06 . Now there was a day <03117 +yowm > when the sons

01 : 07 And the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > said <00559 +>amar > unto

Satan <07854 +satan > , Whence <00370 +>aiyn > comest <00935

From going <07751 +shuwt > to and fro <07751 +shuwt > in the

earth <00776 +>erets > , and from walking <01980 +halak > up and

down in it .

01 : 08 And the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > said <00559 +>amar > unto

Satan <07854 +satan > , Hast thou considered my servant <05650

a perfect <08535 +tam > and an upright <03477 +yashar > man

01 : 09 Then Satan <07854 +satan > answered <06030 +<anah > the

LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , and said <00559 +>amar > , Doth Job

<00347 +>Iyowb > fear <03372 +yare> > God <00430 +>elohiym > for

<06555 +parats > in the land <00776 +>erets > .

01 : 11 But put <07971 +shalach > forth <07971 +shalach > thine

all <03605 +kol > that he hath , and he will curse <01288 +barak

01 : 12 And the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > said <00559 +>amar > unto

Satan <07854 +satan > , Behold <02009 +hinneh > , all <03605

<03535 +kibsah > upon himself put <07971 +shalach > not forth

presence <06440 +paniym > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > .

01 : 13 . And there was a day <03117 +yowm > when his sons

01 : 18 While he [ was ] yet speaking <01696 +dabar > , there

02 : 03 And the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > said <00559 +>amar > unto

Satan <07854 +satan > , Hast thou considered my servant <05650

a perfect <08535 +tam > and an upright <03477 +yashar > man

02 : 04 And Satan <07854 +satan > answered <06030 +<anah > the

his bone <06106 +<etsem > and his flesh <01320 +basar > , and he

02 : 06 And the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > said <00559 +>amar > unto

02 : 08 And he took <03947 +laqach > him a potsherd <02789

+cheres > to scrape <01623 +garad > himself withal ; and he sat

<03427 +yashab > down among <08432 +tavek > the ashes <00665

02 : 09 Then said <00559 +>amar > his wife <00802 +>ishshah >

02 : 10 But he said <00559 +>amar > unto her , Thou speakest

together <03162 +yachad > to come <00935 +bow> > to mourn <05110

+nuwd > with him and to comfort <05162 +nacham > him .

02 : 12 And when they lifted <05375 +nasa> > up their eyes

<05869 +<ayin > afar <07350 +rachowq > off , and knew <05234

+nakar > him not , they lifted <05375 +nasa> > up their voice

02 : 13 So they sat <03427 +yashab > down with him upon the

03 : 01 . After <00310 +>achar > this <03651 +ken > opened

and cursed <07043 +qalal > his day <03117 +yowm > .

03 : 02 And Job <00347 +>Iyowb > spake <06030 +<anah > , and

said <00559 +>amar > ,

03 : 03 Let the day <03117 +yowm > perish <6> wherein I was born

03 : 04 Let that day <03117 +yowm > be darkness <02822 +choshek

03 : 05 Let darkness <02822 +choshek > and the shadow <06757

03 : 06 As [ for ] that night <03915 +layil > , let darkness

joined <02302 +chadah > unto the days <03117 +yowm > of the year

<08141 +shaneh > , let it not come <00935 +bow> > into the

number <04557 +micpar > of the months <03391 +yerach > .

03 : 07 Lo <02009 +hinneh > , let that night <03915 +layil > be

solitary <01565 +galmuwd > , let no <00408 +>al > joyful <07445

03 : 08 Let them curse <05344 +naqab > it that curse <00779

to raise <05782 +<uwr > up their mourning <03382 +Yered > .

03 : 09 Let the stars <03556 +kowkab > of the twilight <05399

nor hid <05641 +cathar > sorrow <03999 +mabbuwl > from mine eyes

03 : 11 . Why <04100 +mah > died <04191 +muwth > I not from the

03 : 12 Why <04069 +madduwa< > did the knees <01290 +berek >

03 : 13 For now <06258 +<attah > should I have lain <07901

slept <03462 +yashen > : then <00227 +>az > had I been at rest

<05117 +nuwach > ,

03 : 14 With kings <04428 +melek > and counsellors <03289

gold <02091 +zahab > , who filled <04390 +male> > their houses

<01004 +bayith > with silver <03701 +keceph > :

03 : 16 Or <00176 +>ow > as an hidden <02934 +taman > untimely

03 : 17 There <08033 +sham > the wicked <07563 +rasha< > cease

<02308 +chadal > [ from ] troubling <07267 +rogez > ; and there

<08033 +sham > the weary <03019 +yagiya< > be at rest <05117

03 : 18 [ There ] the prisoners <00615 +>aciyr > rest <07599

not the voice <06963 +qowl > of the oppressor <05065 +nagas > .

03 : 19 The small <06996 +qatan > and great <01419 +gadowl > are

there <08033 +sham > ; and the servant <05650 +<ebed > [ is ]

free <02670 +chophshiy > from his master <00113 +>adown > .

03 : 20 . Wherefore <04100 +mah > is light <00216 +>owr > given

<05414 +nathan > to him that is in misery <06001 +<amel > , and

life <02416 +chay > unto the bitter <04751 +mar > [ in ] soul

<05315 +nephesh > ;

03 : 21 Which long <02442 +chakah > for death <04194 +maveth > ,

but it [ cometh ] not ; and dig <02658 +chaphar > for it more

03 : 22 Which rejoice <08055 +samach > exceedingly , [ and ] are

glad <07797 +suws > , when <03588 +kiy > they can find <04672

03 : 23 [ Why is light given ] to a man <01397 +geber > whose

and whom God <00433 +>elowahh > hath hedged <05526 +cakak > in ?

03 : 24 For my sighing <00585 +>anachah > cometh <00935 +bow> >

before <06440 +paniym > I eat <03899 +lechem > , and my roarings

<07581 +sh@agah > are poured <05413 +nathak > out like the

03 : 25 For the thing which I greatly feared <06342 +pachad > is

04 : 01 . Then Eliphaz <00464 +>Eliyphaz > the Temanite <08489

+Teymaniy > answered <06030 +<anah > and said <00559 +>amar > ,

04 : 02 [ If ] we assay <05254 +nacah > to commune <01697 +dabar

<04310 +miy > can <03201 +yakol > withhold <06113 +<atsar >

himself from speaking <04405 +millah > ?

04 : 03 Behold <02009 +hinneh > , thou hast instructed <03256

+chazaq > the weak <07504 +rapheh > hands <03027 +yad > .

04 : 04 Thy words <04405 +millah > have upholden <06965 +quwm >

him that was falling <03782 +kashal > , and thou hast

strengthened <00553 +>amats > the feeble <03766 +kara< > knees

<01290 +berek >

04 : 05 But now <06258 +<attah > it is come <00935 +bow> > upon

thee , and thou faintest <03811 +la>ah > ; it toucheth <05060

04 : 06 [ Is ] not [ this ] thy fear <03374 +yir>ah > , thy

confidence <03690 +kiclah > , thy hope <08615 +tiqvah > , and

the uprightness <08537 +tom > of thy ways <01870 +derek > ?

04 : 07 . Remember <02142 +zakar > , I pray <04994 +na> > thee ,

who <04310 +miy > [ ever ] perished <6> , being innocent <05355

+naqiy > ? or where <00375 +>eyphoh > were the righteous <06662

04 : 08 Even as I have seen <07200 +ra>ah > , they that plow

<02790 +charash > iniquity <00205 +>aven > , and sow <02232

+zara< > wickedness <05999 +<amal > , reap <07114 +qatsar > the

04 : 09 By the blast <05397 +n@shamah > of God <00433 +>elowahh

nostrils <00639 +>aph > are they consumed <03615 +kalah > .

04 : 10 The roaring <07581 +sh@agah > of the lion <00738 +>ariy

lion <07826 +shachal > , and the teeth <08127 +shen > of the

young <03715 +k@phiyr > lions <03715 +k@phiyr > , are broken

<05421 +natha< > .

04 : 11 The old lion <03918 +layish > perisheth <6> for lack

<01097 +b@liy > of prey <02964 +tereph > , and the stout lion s

<03833 +labiy> > whelps <01121 +ben > are scattered <06504

04 : 12 . Now a thing <01697 +dabar > was secretly <01589

+ganab > brought <01589 +ganab > to me , and mine ear <00241

04 : 13 In thoughts <05587 +ca<iph > from the visions <02384

+tardemah > sleep <08639 +tardemah > falleth <05307 +naphal > on

<05921 +<al > men <00582 +>enowsh > ,

04 : 14 Fear <06343 +pachad > came <07122 +qara> > upon me , and

trembling <7460> , which made all <07230 +rob > my bones <06106

04 : 15 Then a spirit <07307 +ruwach > passed <02498 +chalaph >

before <05921 +<al > my face <06440 +paniym > ; the hair <08185

+sa<arah > of my flesh <01320 +basar > stood <05568 +camar > up :

04 : 16 It stood <05975 +<amad > still , but I could not discern

<05234 +nakar > the form <04758 +mar>eh > thereof : an image

<08544 +t@muwnah > [ was ] before <05048 +neged > mine eyes

<05869 +<ayin > , [ there was ] silence <01827 +d@mamah > , and

I heard <08085 +shama< > a voice <06963 +qowl > , [ saying ] ,

04 : 17 Shall mortal <00582 +>enowsh > man <00582 +>enowsh > be

more just <06663 +tsadaq > than God <00433 +>elowahh > ? shall

a man <01396 +gabar > be more pure <02891 +taher > than his

maker <06213 +<asah > ?

04 : 18 Behold <02005 +hen > , he put no <03808 +lo> > trust

<00539 +>aman > in his servants <05650 +<ebed > ; and his angels

<04397 +mal>ak > he charged <07760 +suwm > with folly <08417

crushed <01792 +daka> > before <06440 +paniym > the moth <06211

04 : 20 They are destroyed <03807 +kathath > from morning <01242

+boqer > to evening <06153 +<ereb > : they perish <6> for ever

<05331 +netsach > without any regarding <07760 +suwm > [ it ] .

04 : 21 Doth not their excellency <03499 +yether > [ which is ]

<04191 +muwth > , even without <03808 +lo> > wisdom <02451

05 : 01 . Call <07121 +qara> > now <04994 +na> > , if there be

any that will answer <06030 +<anah > thee ; and to which <04310

05 : 02 For wrath <03708 +ka<ac > killeth <02026 +harag > the

foolish <00191 +>eviyl > man , and envy <07068 +qin>ah > slayeth

<04191 +muwth > the silly <06601 +pathah > one .

05 : 03 I have seen <07200 +ra>ah > the foolish <00191 +>eviyl >

taking root <08327 +sharash > : but suddenly <06597 +pith>owm >

I cursed <05344 +naqab > his habitation <05116 +naveh > .

05 : 04 His children <01121 +ben > are far <07350 +rachowq >

from safety <03468 +yesha< > , and they are crushed <01792

05 : 05 Whose <00834 +>aher > harvest <07105 +qatsiyr > the

the robber <06782 +tsammiym > swalloweth <07602 +sha>aph > up

their substance <02428 +chayil > .

05 : 06 . Although <03588 +kiy > affliction <00205 +>aven >

cometh <03318 +yatsa> > not forth <03318 +yatsa> > of the dust

<06083 +<aphar > , neither <03808 +lo> > doth trouble <05999

05 : 07 Yet <03588 +kiy > man <00120 +>adam > is born <03205

05 : 08 I would seek <01875 +darash > unto God <00410 +>el > ,

and unto God <00430 +>elohiym > would I commit <07760 +suwm > my

cause <01700 +dibrah > :

05 : 09 Which doeth <06213 +<asah > great <01419 +gadowl >

things and unsearchable ; marvellous <06381 +pala> > things

without number <04557 +micpar > :

05 : 10 Who giveth <05414 +nathan > rain <04306 +matar > upon

the earth <00776 +>erets > , and sendeth <07971 +shalach >

waters <04325 +mayim > upon the fields <02351 +chuwts > :

05 : 11 To set <07760 +suwm > up on high <04791 +marowm > those

that be low <08217 +shaphal > ; that those which mourn <06937

+qadar > may be exalted <07682 +sagab > to safety <03468 +yesha<

05 : 12 He disappointeth <06565 +parar > the devices <04284

+machashabah > of the crafty <06175 +<aruwm > , so that their

hands <03027 +yad > cannot perform [ their ] enterprise <08454

05 : 13 He taketh <03920 +lakad > the wise <02450 +chakam > in

their own craftiness <06193 +<orem > : and the counsel <06098

+<etsah > of the froward <06617 +pathal > is carried <04116

05 : 14 They meet <06298 +pagash > with darkness <02822 +choshek

in the noonday <06672 +tsohar > as in the night <03915 +layil > .

05 : 15 But he saveth <03467 +yasha< > the poor <34> from the

sword <02719 +chereb > , from their mouth <06310 +peh > , and

from the hand <03027 +yad > of the mighty <02389 +chazaq > .

05 : 16 So the poor <01800 +dal > hath <01961 +hayah > hope

<08615 +tiqvah > , and iniquity <05766 +<evel > stoppeth <07092

05 : 17 . Behold <02009 +hinneh > , happy <00835 +>esher > [ is

05 : 18 For he maketh sore <03510 +ka>ab > , and bindeth <02280

<03027 +yad > make whole <07495 +rapha> > .

05 : 19 He shall deliver <05337 +natsal > thee in six <08337

05 : 20 In famine <07458 +ra<ab > he shall redeem <06299 +padah

05 : 23 For thou shalt be in league <01285 +b@riyth > with the

stones <68> of the field <07704 +sadeh > : and the beasts <02416

05 : 24 And thou shalt know <03045 +yada< > that thy tabernacle

thou shalt visit <06485 +paqad > thy habitation <05116 +naveh > ,

and shalt not sin <02398 +chata> > .

05 : 25 Thou shalt know <03045 +yada< > also that thy seed

<02233 +zera< > [ shall be ] great <07227 +rab > , and thine

offspring <06631 +tse>etsa> > as the grass <06212 +<eseb > of

05 : 26 Thou shalt come <00935 +bow> > to [ thy ] grave <06913

05 : 27 Lo <02009 +hinneh > this <02063 +zo>th > , we have

06 : 03 For now <06258 +<attah > it would be heavier <03513

06 : 04 For the arrows <02671 +chets > of the Almighty <07706

06 : 05 Doth the wild <06501 +pere> > ass <06501 +pere> > bray

06 : 06 Can that which is unsavoury <08602 +taphel > be eaten

or is there <08033 +sham > [ any ] taste <02940 +ta<am > in the

06 : 07 The things [ that ] my soul <05315 +nephesh > refused

06 : 10 Then should I yet <05750 +<owd > have <01961 +hayah >

06 : 11 What <04100 +mah > [ is ] my strength <03581 +koach > ,

06 : 12 [ Is ] my strength <03581 +koach > the strength <03581

06 : 13 [ Is ] not my help <05833 +<ezrah > in me ? and is

wisdom <08454 +tuwshiyah > driven <05080 +nadach > quite <05080

06 : 14 . To him that is afflicted <04523 +mac > pity <02617

06 : 15 My brethren <00251 +>ach > have dealt deceitfully <00898

06 : 18 The paths <00734 +>orach > of their way <01870 +derek >

07 : 05 My flesh <01320 +basar > is clothed <03847 +labash >

that thou shouldest magnify <01431 +gadal > him ? and that thou

10 : 01 . My soul <05315 +nephesh > is weary <05354 +naqat > of

Do not condemn <7561rasha< > me ; shew <03045 +yada< > me

10 : 03 [ Is it ] good <02896 +towb > unto thee that thou

10 : 07 Thou knowest <01847 +da<ath > that I am not wicked

10 : 09 Remember <02142 +zakar > , I beseech <04994 +na> > thee ,

that thou hast made <06213 +<asah > me as the clay <02563

10 : 10 Hast thou not poured <05413 +nathak > me out as milk

10 : 11 Thou hast clothed <03847 +labash > me with skin <05785

10 : 12 Thou hast granted <06213 +<asah > me life <02416 +chay >

10 : 16 For it increaseth <01342 +ga>ah > . Thou huntest <06679

10 : 17 Thou renewest <02318 +chadash > thy witnesses <05707

10 : 18 Wherefore <04100 +mah > then hast thou brought <03318

10 : 20 [ Are ] not my days <03117 +yowm > few <04592 +m@<at > ?

cease <02308 +chadal > [ then , and ] let me alone <07896

11 : 11 For he knoweth <03045 +yada< > vain <07723 +shav> > men

12 : 19 He leadeth <03212 +yalak > princes <03548 +kohen > away

12 : 22 He discovereth <01540 +galah > deep <06013 +<amoq >

12 : 24 He taketh <05493 +cuwr > away <05493 +cuwr > the heart

the Almighty <07706 +Shadday > , and I desire <02654 +chaphets >

to reason <03198 +yakach > with God <00410 +>el > .

13 : 04 But ye [ are ] forgers <02950 +taphal > of lies <08267

13 : 05 O that ye would altogether hold <02790 +charash > your

peace <02790 +charash > ! and it should be your wisdom <02451

13 : 06 Hear <08085 +shama< > now <04994 +na> > my reasoning

<08433 +towkechah > , and hearken <07181 +qashab > to the

pleadings <07379 +riyb > of my lips <08193 +saphah > .

13 : 07 Will ye speak <01696 +dabar > wickedly <05766 +<evel >

for God <00410 +>el > ? and talk <01696 +dabar > deceitfully

<07423 +r@miyah > for him ?

13 : 08 Will ye accept <05375 +nasa> > his person <06440 +paniym

13 : 09 Is it good <02896 +towb > that he should search <02713

<02048 +hathal > another , do ye [ so ] mock <02048 +hathal >

13 : 10 He will surely reprove <03198 +yakach > you , if <00518

13 : 11 Shall not his excellency <07613 +s@>eth > make you

13 : 12 Your remembrances <02146 +zikrown > [ are ] like <04911

13 : 13 . Hold <02790 +charash > your peace <02790 +charash > ,

let me alone , that I may speak <01696 +dabar > , and let come

13 : 14 Wherefore do I take <05375 +nasa> > my flesh <01320

13 : 15 Though he slay <06991 +qatal > me , yet will I trust

mine own ways <01870 +derek > before him .

13 : 16 He also <01571 +gam > [ shall be ] my salvation <03444

13 : 17 Hear <08085 +shama< > diligently my speech <04405

13 : 18 Behold <02009 +hinneh > now <04994 +na> > , I have

13 : 19 Who <04310 +miy > [ is ] he [ that ] will plead <07378

13 : 20 Only <00389 +>ak > do <06213 +<asah > not two <08147

13 : 21 Withdraw <07368 +rachaq > thine hand <03709 +kaph > far

13 : 22 Then call <07121 +qara> > thou , and I will answer

<06030 +<anah > : or <00176 +>ow > let me speak <01696 +dabar > ,

and answer <07725 +shuwb > thou me .

13 : 23 . How <04100 +mah > many [ are ] mine iniquities <05771

+yada< > my transgression <06588 +pesha< > and my sin <02403

13 : 24 Wherefore <04100 +mah > hidest <05641 +cathar > thou thy

face <06440 +paniym > , and holdest <02803 +chashab > me for

thine enemy <00341 +>oyeb > ?

13 : 25 Wilt thou break <06206 +<arats > a leaf <05929 +<aleh >

driven <05086 +nadaph > to and fro ? and wilt thou pursue

<07291 +radaph > the dry <03002 +yabesh > stubble <07179 +qash >

13 : 26 For thou writest <03789 +kathab > bitter <04846 +m@rorah

<03423 +yarash > the iniquities <05771 +<avon > of my youth

13 : 27 Thou puttest <07760 +suwm > my feet <07272 +regel > also

in the stocks <05465 +cad > , and lookest <08104 +shamar >

narrowly <08104 +shamar > unto all <03605 +kol > my paths <00734

13 : 28 And he , as a rotten <07538 +raqab > thing , consumeth

<01086 +balah > , as a garment <00899 +beged > that is moth

<06211 +<ash > eaten <00398 +>akal > .

14 : 01 . Man <00120 +>adam > [ that is ] born <03205 +yalad >

of a woman <00802 +>ishshah > [ is ] of few <07116 +qatser >

days <03117 +yowm > , and full <07646 +saba< > of trouble <07267

14 : 02 He cometh <03318 +yatsa> > forth <03318 +yatsa> > like a

fleeth <01272 +barach > also as a shadow <06738 +tsel > , and

continueth <05975 +<amad > not .

14 : 03 And dost thou open <06491 +paqach > thine eyes <05869

14 : 04 Who <04310 +miy > can bring <05414 +nathan > a clean

not one <00259 +>echad > .

14 : 05 Seeing <00518 +>im > his days <03117 +yowm > [ are ]

determined <02782 +charats > , the number <04557 +micpar > of

his months <02320 +chodesh > [ are ] with thee , thou hast

appointed <06213 +<asah > his bounds <02706 +choq > that he

cannot <03808 +lo> > pass <05674 +<abar > ;

14 : 06 Turn <08159 +sha<ah > from him , that he may rest <02308

+chadal > , till <05704 +<ad > he shall accomplish <07521

+ratsah > , as an hireling <07916 +sakiyr > , his day <03117

14 : 07 . For there is hope <08615 +tiqvah > of a tree <06086

+<ets > , if it be cut <03772 +karath > down , that it will

sprout <02498 +chalaph > again <05750 +<owd > , and that the

tender <03127 +yowneqeth > branch thereof will not cease <02308

14 : 08 Though <00518 +>im > the root <08328 +sheresh > thereof

stock <01503 +geza> > thereof die <04191 +muwth > in the ground

<06083 +<aphar > ;

14 : 09 [ Yet ] through the scent <07381 +reyach > of water

<04325 +mayim > it will bud <06524 +parach > , and bring <06213

+<asah > forth <06213 +<asah > boughs <07105 +qatsiyr > like

<03644 +k@mow > a plant <05194 +neta< > .

14 : 10 But man <01397 +geber > dieth <04191 +muwth > , and

wasteth <02522 +chalash > away : yea , man <00120 +>adam >

giveth <01478 +gava< > up the ghost <01478 +gava< > , and where

<00834 +>aher > [ is ] he ?

14 : 11 [ As ] the waters <04325 +mayim > fail <00235 +>azal >

from the sea <03220 +yam > , and the flood <05104 +nahar >

decayeth <02717 +charab > and drieth <03001 +yabesh > up :

be raised <05782 +<uwr > out of their sleep <08142 +shehah > .

14 : 13 O that thou wouldest hide <06845 +tsaphan > me in the

grave <07585 +sh@>owl > , that thou wouldest keep me secret

<05641 +cathar > , until <05704 +<ad > thy wrath <00639 +>aph >

14 : 14 If <00518 +>im > a man <01397 +geber > die <04191 +muwth

14 : 15 Thou shalt call <07121 +qara> > , and I will answer

<06030 +<anah > thee : thou wilt have a desire <03700 +kacaph >

to the work <04639 +ma<aseh > of thine hands <03027 +yad > .

14 : 16 . For now <06258 +<attah > thou numberest <05608

+shamar > over <05921 +<al > my sin <02403 +chatta>ah > ?

14 : 17 My transgression <06588 +pesha< > [ is ] sealed <02856

+chatham > up in a bag <06872 +ts@rowr > , and thou sewest

<02950 +taphal > up mine iniquity <05771 +<avon > .

14 : 18 And surely <00199 +>uwlam > the mountain <02022 +har >

falling <05307 +naphal > cometh <05034 +nabel > to nought <05034

+nabel > , and the rock <06697 +tsuwr > is removed <06275

14 : 19 The waters <04325 +mayim > wear <07833 +shachaq > the

stones <68> : thou washest <07857 +shataph > away the things

which grow <05599 +caphiyach > [ out ] of the dust <06083

<6> the hope <08615 +tiqvah > of man <00582 +>enowsh > .

14 : 20 Thou prevailest <08630 +taqaph > for ever <05331

changest <08138 +shanah > his countenance <06440 +paniym > , and

sendest <07971 +shalach > him away .

14 : 21 His sons <01121 +ben > come to honour <03513 +kabad > ,

and he knoweth <03045 +yada< > [ it ] not ; and they are brought

<06819 +tsa<ar > low <06819 +tsa<ar > , but he perceiveth <00995

14 : 22 But his flesh <01320 +basar > upon him shall have pain

<03510 +ka>ab > , and his soul <05315 +nephesh > within <05921

15 : 01 . Then answered <06030 +<anah > Eliphaz <00464

15 : 02 Should a wise <02450 +chakam > man utter vain <07307

his belly <00990 +beten > with the east <06921 +qadiym > wind

15 : 03 Should he reason <03198 +yakach > with unprofitable

15 : 04 Yea <00637 +>aph > , thou castest <06565 +parar > off

15 : 05 For thy mouth <06310 +peh > uttereth <00502 +>alph >

thine iniquity <05771 +<avon > , and thou choosest <00977

15 : 06 Thine own mouth <06310 +peh > condemneth <07561 +rasha<

15 : 07 [ Art ] thou the first <07223 +ri>shown > man <00120

15 : 08 Hast thou heard <08085 +shama< > the secret <05475 +cowd

15 : 09 What <04100 +mah > knowest <03045 +yada< > thou , that

15 : 10 With us [ are ] both <01571 +gam > the grayheaded and

very <03453 +yashiysh > aged <03453 +yashiysh > men , much

15 : 11 [ Are ] the consolations <08575 +tanchuwm > of God

15 : 12 Why <04100 +mah > doth thine heart <03820 +leb > carry

<03947 +laqach > thee away ? and what <04100 +mah > do thy eyes

<05869 +<ayin > wink <07335 +razam > at ,

15 : 13 That thou turnest <07725 +shuwb > thy spirit <07307

[ such ] words <04405 +millah > go <03318 +yatsa> > out of thy

15 : 14 What <04100 +mah > [ is ] man <00582 +>enowsh > , that

15 : 15 Behold <02005 +hen > , he putteth no <03808 +lo> > trust

15 : 20 The wicked <07563 +rasha< > man travaileth <02342 +chuwl

15 : 21 A dreadful <06343 +pachad > sound <06963 +qowl > [ is ]

the destroyer <07703 +shadad > shall come <00935 +bow> > upon

15 : 24 Trouble <06862 +tsar > and anguish <04691 +m@tsuwqah >

15 : 25 For he stretcheth <05186 +natah > out his hand <03027

strengtheneth <01396 +gabar > himself against <00413 +>el > the

tabernacles <00168 +>ohel > of bribery <07810 +shachad > .

15 : 35 They conceive <02029 +harah > mischief <05999 +<amal > ,

and bring <03205 +yalad > forth <03205 +yalad > vanity <00205

16 : 01 . Then Job <00347 +>Iyowb > answered <06030 +<anah >

and said <00559 +>amar > ,

16 : 02 I have heard <08085 +shama< > many <07227 +rab > such

comforters <05162 +nacham > [ are ] ye all <03605 +kol > .

16 : 03 Shall vain <07307 +ruwach > words <01697 +dabar > have

an end <07093 +qets > ? or <00176 +>ow > what <04100 +mah >

emboldeneth <04834 +marats > thee that thou answerest <06030

16 : 04 I also <01571 +gam > could speak <01696 +dabar > as ye [

do ] : if <03863 +luw> > your soul <05315 +nephesh > were in my

soul s <05315 +nephesh > stead <08478 +tachath > , I could heap

<02266 +chabar > up words <04405 +millah > against <05921 +<al >

you , and shake <05128 +nuwa< > mine head <07218 +ro>sh > at you

16 : 05 [ But ] I would strengthen <00553 +>amats > you with my

mouth <06310 +peh > , and the moving <05205 +niyd > of my lips

<08193 +saphah > should asswage <02820 +chasak > [ your grief ]

16 : 06 . Though <00518 +>im > I speak <01696 +dabar > , my

grief <03511 +k@>eb > is not asswaged <02820 +chasak > : and [

though ] I forbear <02308 +chadal > , what <04100 +mah > am I

eased <01980 +halak > ?

16 : 07 But now <06258 +<attah > he hath made me weary <03811

+la>ah > : thou hast made desolate <08074 +shamem > all <03605

+kol > my company <05712 +<edah > .

16 : 08 And thou hast filled <07059 +qamat > me with wrinkles

<07059 +qamat > , [ which ] is a witness <05707 +<ed > [ against

me ] : and my leanness <03585 +kachash > rising <06965 +quwm >

up in me beareth <06030 +<anah > witness <06030 +<anah > to my

face <06440 +paniym > .

16 : 09 He teareth <02963 +taraph > [ me ] in his wrath <00639

+charaq > upon me with his teeth <08127 +shen > ; mine enemy

<06862 +tsar > sharpeneth <03913 +latash > his eyes <05869

+<ayin > upon me .

16 : 10 They have gaped <06473 +pa<ar > upon me with their mouth

<06310 +peh > ; they have smitten <05221 +nakah > me upon the

cheek <03895 +l@chiy > reproachfully <02781 +cherpah > ; they

have gathered <04390 +male> > themselves together <03162 +yachad

16 : 11 God <00410 +>el > hath delivered <05462 +cagar > me to

the ungodly <05760 +<aviyl > , and turned <03399 +yarat > me

over <05921 +<al > into <00413 +>el > the hands <03027 +yad > of

the wicked <07563 +rasha< > .

16 : 12 I was at ease <07961 +shalev > , but he hath broken

<06565 +parar > me asunder : he hath also taken <00247 +>azar >

[ me ] by my neck <06203 +<oreph > , and shaken <06327 +puwts >

me to pieces , and set <06965 +quwm > me up for his mark <04307

16 : 13 His archers <07228 +rab > compass <05437 +cabab > me

round <05437 +cabab > about , he cleaveth <06398 +palach > my

reins <03629 +kilyah > asunder , and doth not spare <02550

16 : 14 He breaketh <06555 +parats > me with breach <06556

+perets > upon breach <06556 +perets > , he runneth <07323

+ruwts > upon me like a giant <01368 +gibbowr > .

16 : 15 I have sewed <08609 +taphar > sackcloth <08242 +saq >

upon my skin <01539 +geled > , and defiled <05953 +<alal > my

horn <07161 +qeren > in the dust <06083 +<aphar > .

16 : 16 My face <06440 +paniym > is foul <02560 +chamar > with

weeping <01065 +B@kiy > , and on <05921 +<al > my eyelids <06079

<06757 +tsalmaveth > ;

16 : 17 . Not for [ any ] injustice <02555 +chamac > in mine

hands <03709 +kaph > : also my prayer <08605 +t@phillah > [ is ]

pure <02134 +zak > .

16 : 18 O earth <00776 +>erets > , cover <03680 +kacah > not

have <01961 +hayah > no <00408 +>al > place <04725 +maqowm > .

16 : 19 Also <01571 +gam > now <06258 +<attah > , behold <02009

<04791 +marowm > .

16 : 20 My friends <07453 +rea< > scorn <03887 +luwts > me : [

but ] mine eye <05869 +<ayin > poureth <01811 +dalaph > out [

tears ] unto God <00433 +>elowahh > .

16 : 21 O that one might plead <03198 +yakach > for a man <01397

[ pleadeth ] for his neighbour <07453 +rea< > !

16 : 22 When <03588 +kiy > a few <04557 +micpar > years <08141

<07725 +shuwb > .

17 : 01 . My breath <07307 +ruwach > is corrupt <02254 +chabal

graves <06913 +qeber > [ are ready ] for me .

17 : 02 [ Are there ] not mockers <02049 +hathol > with me ?

and doth not mine eye <05869 +<ayin > continue <03885 +luwn > in

their provocation <04784 +marah > ?

17 : 03 Lay <07760 +suwm > down now <04994 +na> > , put me in a

surety <06148 +<arab > with thee ; who <04310 +miy > [ is ] he [

that ] will strike <08628 +taqa< > hands <03027 +yad > with me ?

17 : 04 For thou hast hid <06845 +tsaphan > their heart <03820

+leb > from understanding <07922 +sekel > : therefore shalt thou

not exalt <07311 +ruwm > [ them ] .

17 : 05 He that speaketh <05046 +nagad > flattery <02506 +cheleq

+<ayin > of his children <01121 +ben > shall fail <03615 +kalah

17 : 06 He hath made <03322 +yatsag > me also a byword <04914

+m@showl > of the people <05971 +<am > ; and aforetime <06440

+paniym > I was as a tabret <08611 +topheth > .

17 : 07 Mine eye <05869 +<ayin > also is dim <03543 +kahah > by

reason of sorrow <3708ka<ac > , and all <03605 +kol > my members

<03338 +yatsur > [ are ] as a shadow <06738 +tsel > .

17 : 08 Upright <03477 +yashar > [ men ] shall be astonied

<08074 +shamem > at <05921 +<al > this <02063 +zo>th > , and the

innocent <05355 +naqiy > shall stir <05782 +<uwr > up himself

against <05921 +<al > the hypocrite <02611 +chaneph > .

17 : 09 The righteous <06662 +tsaddiyq > also shall hold <00270

<02891 +taher > hands <03027 +yad > shall be stronger <00555

17 : 10 . But as for you all <03605 +kol > , do ye return

<07725 +shuwb > , and come <00935 +bow> > now <04994 +na> > :

for I cannot <03808 +lo> > find <04672 +matsa> > [ one ] wise

<02450 +chakam > [ man ] among you .

17 : 11 My days <03117 +yowm > are past <05674 +<abar > , my

purposes <02154 +zimmah > are broken <05423 +nathaq > off , [

even ] the thoughts <04180 +mowrash > of my heart <03824 +lebab >

17 : 12 They change <07760 +suwm > the night <03915 +layil >

into day <03117 +yowm > : the light <00216 +>owr > [ is ] short

<07138 +qarowb > because <06440 +paniym > of darkness <02822

17 : 13 If <00518 +>im > I wait <06960 +qavah > , the grave

<07585 +sh@>owl > [ is ] mine house <01004 +bayith > : I have

made <07502 +raphad > my bed <03326 +yatsuwa< > in the darkness

<02822 +choshek > .

17 : 14 I have said <07121 +qara> > to corruption <07845

+shachath > , Thou [ art ] my father <1> : to the worm <07415

+rimmah > , [ Thou art ] my mother <00517 +>em > , and my sister

17 : 15 And where [ is ] now <00645 +>ephow > my hope <08615

+tiqvah > ? as for my hope <08615 +tiqvah > , who <04310 +miy >

shall see <07789 +shuwr > it ?

17 : 16 They shall go <03381 +yarad > down <03381 +yarad > to

the bars <00905 +bad > of the pit <07585 +sh@>owl > , when

18 : 01 . Then answered <06030 +<anah > Bildad <01085 +Bildad >

the Shuhite <07747 +Shuchiy > , and said <00559 +>amar > ,

18 : 02 How <05704 +<ad > long <05704 +<ad > [ will it be ere ]

18 : 03 Wherefore <04069 +madduwa< > are we counted <02803

+chashab > vile <02933 +tamah > in your sight <05869 +<ayin > ?

18 : 04 He teareth <02963 +taraph > himself <05315 +nephesh > in

his anger <00639 +>aph > : shall the earth <00776 +>erets > be

forsaken <05800 +<azab > for thee ? and shall the rock <06697

+tsuwr > be removed <06275 +<athaq > out of his place <04725

18 : 05 . Yea <01571 +gam > , the light <00216 +>owr > of the

wicked <07563 +rasha< > shall be put <01846 +da<ak > out , and

the spark <07632 +shabiyb > of his fire <00784 +>esh > shall not

shine <05050 +nagahh > .

18 : 06 The light <00216 +>owr > shall be dark <02821 +chashak >

in his tabernacle <00168 +>ohel > , and his candle <05216 +niyr

18 : 07 The steps <06806 +tsa<ad > of his strength <00202 +>own

<06098 +<etsah > shall cast <07993 +shalak > him down .

18 : 08 For he is cast <07971 +shalach > into a net <07568

+resheth > by his own feet <07272 +regel > , and he walketh

<01980 +halak > upon a snare <07639 +s@bakah > .

18 : 09 The gin <06341 +pach > shall take <00270 +>achaz > [ him

+tsammiym > shall prevail <02388 +chazaq > against <05921 +<al >

him .

18 : 10 The snare <02256 +chebel > [ is ] laid for him in the

ground <00776 +>erets > , and a trap <04434 +malkodeth > for him

in the way <05410 +nathiyb > .

18 : 11 . Terrors <01091 +ballahah > shall make him afraid

<01204 +ba<ath > on every <05437 +cabab > side <05439 +cabiyb > ,

and shall drive <06327 +puwts > him to his feet <07272 +regel >

18 : 12 His strength <00202 +>own > shall be hungerbitten <07457

18 : 13 It shall devour <00398 +>akal > the strength <00905 +bad

+b@kowr > of death <04194 +maveth > shall devour <00398 +>akal >

his strength <00905 +bad > .

18 : 14 His confidence <04009 +mibtach > shall be rooted <05423

+nathaq > out of his tabernacle <00168 +>ohel > , and it shall

bring <06805 +tsa<ad > him to the king <04428 +melek > of

terrors <01091 +ballahah > .

18 : 15 It shall dwell <07931 +shakan > in his tabernacle <00168

brimstone <01614 +gophriyth > shall be scattered <02219 +zarah >

upon his habitation <05116 +naveh > .

18 : 16 His roots <08328 +sheresh > shall be dried <03001

+yabesh > up beneath <08478 +tachath > , and above <04605 +ma<al

18 : 17 His remembrance <02143 +zeker > shall perish <6> from

the earth <00776 +>erets > , and he shall have no <03808 +lo> >

name <08034 +shem > in the street .

18 : 18 He shall be driven <01920 +Hadaph > from light <00216

+nadad > out of the world <08398 +tebel > .

18 : 19 He shall neither <03808 +lo> > have son <05209 +niyn >

dwellings <04033 +maguwr > .

18 : 20 They that come after <00314 +>acharown > [ him ] shall

be astonied <08074 +shamem > at <05921 +<al > his day <03117

18 : 21 Surely <00389 +>ak > such <00428 +>el - leh > [ are ]

the dwellings <04908 +mishkan > of the wicked <05767 +<avval > ,

and this <02088 +zeh > [ is ] the place <04725 +maqowm > [ of

him that ] knoweth <03045 +yada< > not God <00410 +>el > .

19 : 01 . Then Job <00347 +>Iyowb > answered <06030 +<anah >

and said <00559 +>amar > ,

19 : 02 How <05704 +<ad > long <05704 +<ad > will ye vex <03013

+yagah > my soul <05315 +nephesh > , and break <01792 +daka> >

me in pieces with words <04405 +millah > ?

19 : 03 These <02088 +zeh > ten <06235 +<eser > times <06471

+pa<am > have ye reproached <03637 +kalam > me : ye are not

ashamed <00954 +buwsh > [ that ] ye make yourselves strange

<01970 +hakar > to me .

19 : 04 And be it indeed <00551 +>omnam > [ that ] I have erred

<07683 +shagag > , mine error <04879 +m@shuwgah > remaineth

<03885 +luwn > with myself .

19 : 05 If <00518 +>im > indeed <00551 +>omnam > ye will magnify

<01431 +gadal > [ yourselves ] against <05921 +<al > me , and

plead <03198 +yakach > against <05921 +<al > me my reproach

<02781 +cherpah > :

19 : 06 Know <03045 +yada< > now <00645 +>ephow > that God

<00433 +>elowahh > hath overthrown <05791 +<avath > me , and

19 : 07 Behold <02005 +hen > , I cry <06817 +tsa<aq > out of

wrong <02555 +chamac > , but I am not heard <06030 +<anah > : I

cry <07768 +shava< > aloud <07768 +shava< > , but [ there is ]

no <03808 +lo> > judgment <04941 +mishpat > .

19 : 08 . He hath fenced <01443 +gadar > up my way <00734

he hath set <07760 +suwm > darkness <02822 +choshek > in my

paths <05410 +nathiyb > .

19 : 09 He hath stripped <06584 +pashat > me of my glory <03519

+kabowd > , and taken <05493 +cuwr > the crown <05850 +<atarah >

[ from ] my head <07218 +ro>sh > .

19 : 10 He hath destroyed <05422 +nathats > me on every <05437

+cabab > side <05439 +cabiyb > , and I am gone <03212 +yalak > :

and mine hope <08615 +tiqvah > hath he removed <05265 +naca< >

like a tree <06086 +<ets > .

19 : 11 He hath also kindled <02734 +charah > his wrath <00639

+chashab > me unto him as [ one of ] his enemies <06862 +tsar > .

19 : 12 His troops <01416 +g@duwd > come <00935 +bow> > together

<03162 +yachad > , and raise <05549 +calal > up their way <01870

round <05439 +cabiyb > about my tabernacle <00168 +>ohel > .

19 : 13 He hath put my brethren <00251 +>ach > far <07350

+rachowq > from me , andmine acquaintance <03045 +yada< > are

verily <00389 +>ak > estranged <02114 +zuwr > from me .

19 : 14 My kinsfolk <07138 +qarowb > have failed <02308 +chadal

<07911 +shakach > me .

19 : 15 They that dwell <01481 +guwr > in mine house <01004

19 : 16 I called <07121 +qara> > my servant <05650 +<ebed > ,

and he gave [ me ] no <03808 +lo> > answer <06030 +<anah > ; I

intreated <02603 +chanan > him with my mouth <06310 +peh > .

19 : 17 My breath <07307 +ruwach > is strange <02114 +zuwr > to

my wife <00802 +>ishshah > , though I intreated <02589

19 : 18 Yea <01571 +gam > , young children despised <03988

19 : 19 All <03605 +kol > my inward <05475 +cowd > friends

<04962 +math > abhorred <08581 +ta<ab > me : and they whom I

loved <00157 +>ahab > are turned <02015 +haphak > against me .

19 : 20 My bone <06106 +<etsem > cleaveth <01692 +dabaq > to my

skin <05785 +<owr > and to my flesh <01320 +basar > , and I am

escaped <04422 +malat > with the skin <05785 +<owr > of my teeth

<08127 +shen > .

19 : 21 Have pity <02603 +chanan > upon me , have pity <02603

+chanan > upon me , O ye my friends <07453 +rea< > ; for the

hand <03027 +yad > of God <00433 +>elowahh > hath touched <05060

19 : 22 Why <04100 +mah > do ye persecute <07291 +radaph > me as

20 : 01 . Then answered <06030 +<anah > Zophar <06691 +Tsowphar

20 : 03 I have heard <08085 +shama< > the check <04148 +muwcar >

God <00410 +>el > shall cast <03423 +yarash > them out of his

20 : 18 That which he laboured <03022 +yaga< > for shall he

20 : 19 Because <03588 +kiy > he hath oppressed <07533 +ratsats

20 : 23 . [ When ] he is about to fill <04390 +male> > his

20 : 24 He shall flee <01272 +barach > from the iron <01270

20 : 25 It is drawn <08025 +shalaph > , and cometh <03318

20 : 26 All <03605 +kol > darkness <02822 +choshek > [ shall be

20 : 27 The heaven <08064 +shamayim > shall reveal <01540 +galah

20 : 28 The increase <02981 +y@buwl > of his house <01004

20 : 29 This <02088 +zeh > [ is ] the portion <02506 +cheleq >

of a wicked <07563 +rasha< > man <00120 +>adam > from God <00430

21 : 04 As for me , [ is ] my complaint <07878 +siyach > to man

<04069 +madduwa< > should not my spirit <07307 +ruwach > be

21 : 05 Mark <06437 +panah > me , and be astonished <08074

21 : 07 . Wherefore <04069 +madduwa< > do the wicked <07563

21 : 08 Their seed <02233 +zera< > is established <03559 +kuwn >

in their sight <06440 +paniym > with them , and their offspring

21 : 09 Their houses <01004 +bayith > [ are ] safe <07965

21 : 10 Their bull <07794 +showr > gendereth <05674 +<abar > ,

and faileth <01602 +ga<al > not ; their cow <06510 +parah >

calveth <06403 +palat > , and casteth <07921 +shakol > not her

calf .

21 : 11 They send <07971 +shalach > forth their little <05759

<03206 +yeled > dance <07540 +raqad > .

21 : 12 They take <05375 +nasa> > the timbrel <08596 +toph > and

harp <03658 +kinnowr > , and rejoice <08055 +samach > at the

sound <06963 +qowl > of the organ <05748 +<uwgab > .

21 : 13 They spend <03615 +kalah > their days <03117 +yowm > in

wealth <02896 +towb > , and in a moment <07281 +rega< > go

21 : 14 Therefore they say <00559 +>amar > unto God <00410 +>el

21 : 15 What <04100 +mah > [ is ] the Almighty <07706 +Shadday >

21 : 16 Lo <02005 +hen > , their good <02898 +tuwb > [ is ] not

21 : 17 . How <04100 +mah > oft is the candle <05216 +niyr > of

21 : 18 They are as stubble <08401 +teben > before <06440

21 : 19 God <00433 +>elowahh > layeth <06845 +tsaphan > up his

21 : 20 His eyes <05869 +<ayin > shall see <07200 +ra>ah > his

21 : 21 For what <04100 +mah > pleasure <02656 +chephets > [

21 : 22 Shall [ any ] teach <03925 +lamad > God <00410 +>el >

21 : 23 One dieth <04191 +muwth > in his full <08537 +tom >

21 : 26 They shall lie <07901 +shakab > down <07904 +shakah >

21 : 27 . Behold <02005 +hen > , I know <03045 +yada< > your

21 : 29 Have ye not asked <07592 +sha>al > them that go <05674

they shall be brought <02986 +yabal > forth to the day <03117

21 : 31 Who <04310 +miy > shall declare <05046 +nagad > his way

21 : 33 The clods <07263 +regeb > of the valley <05158 +nachal >

22 : 03 [ Is it ] any pleasure <02656 +chephets > to the

22 : 07 Thou hast not given water <04325 +mayim > to the weary

22 : 18 Yet he filled <04390 +male> > their houses <01004

22 : 19 The righteous <06662 +tsaddiyq > see <07200 +ra>ah > [

22 : 24 Then shalt thou lay <07896 +shiyth > up gold <01220

22 : 29 When <03588 +kiy > [ men ] are cast <08213 +shaphel >

23 : 01 . Then Job <00347 +>Iyowb > answered <06030 +<anah >

and said <00559 +>amar > ,

23 : 02 Even <01571 +gam > to day <03117 +yowm > [ is ] my

complaint <07878 +siyach > bitter <04805 +m@riy > : my stroke

<03027 +yad > is heavier <03513 +kabad > than <05921 +<al > my

groaning <00585 +>anachah > .

23 : 03 Oh that I knew <03045 +yada< > where I might find <04672

+matsa> > him ! [ that ] I might come <00935 +bow> > [ even ]

to his seat <08499 +t@kuwnah > !

23 : 04 I would order <06186 +<arak > [ my ] cause <04941

+mishpat > before <06440 +paniym > him , and fill <04390 +male>

23 : 05 I would know <03045 +yada< > the words <04405 +millah >

[ which ] he would answer <06030 +<anah > me , and understand

<00995 +biyn > what <04100 +mah > he would say <00559 +>amar >

unto me .

23 : 06 Will he plead <07378 +riyb > against <05978 +<immad > me

with [ his ] great <07227 +rab > power <03581 +koach > ? No

<03808 +lo> > ; but he would put <07760 +suwm > [ strength ] in

me .

23 : 07 There <08033 +sham > the righteous <03477 +yashar >

might dispute <03198 +yakach > with him ; so should I be

delivered <06403 +palat > for ever <05331 +netsach > from my

judge <08199 +shaphat > .

23 : 08 . Behold <02005 +hen > , I go <01980 +halak > forward

<06924 +qedem > , but he [ is ] not [ there <08033 +sham > ] ;

and backward <00268 +>achowr > , but I cannot <03808 +lo> >

perceive <03045 +yada< > him :

23 : 09 On the left <08040 +s@mo>wl > hand <08040 +s@mo>wl > ,

where he doth work <06213 +<asah > , but I cannot <03808 +lo> >

behold <02372 +chazah > [ him ] : he hideth <05848 +<ataph >

himself on the right <03225 +yamiyn > hand <03225 +yamiyn > ,

that I cannot <03808 +lo> > see <07200 +ra>ah > [ him ] :

23 : 10 But he knoweth <03045 +yada< > the way <01870 +derek >

that I take <05978 +<immad > : [ when ] he hath tried <00974

+bachan > me , I shall come <03318 +yatsa> > forth <03318

+yatsa> > as gold <02091 +zahab > .

23 : 11 My foot <07272 +regel > hath held <00270 +>achaz > his

steps <00838 +>ashur > , his way <01870 +derek > have I kept

<08104 +shamar > , and not declined <05186 +natah > .

23 : 12 Neither <03808 +lo> > have I gone <04185 +muwsh > back

<04185 +muwsh > from the commandment <04687 +mitsvah > of his

lips <08193 +saphah > ; I have esteemed <06845 +tsaphan > the

words <00561 +>emer > of his mouth <06310 +peh > more than my

necessary <02706 +choq > [ food ] .

23 : 13 . But he [ is ] in one <00259 +>echad > [ mind ] , and

who <04310 +miy > can turn <07725 +shuwb > him ? and [ what ]

his soul <05315 +nephesh > desireth <00183 +>avah > , even [

that ] he doeth <06213 +<asah > .

23 : 14 For he performeth <07999 +shalam > [ the thing that is ]

appointed <02706 +choq > for me : and many <07227 +rab > such

<02007 +hennah > [ things are ] with him .

23 : 15 Therefore am I troubled <00926 +bahal > at his presence

<06440 +paniym > : when I consider <00995 +biyn > , I am afraid

<06342 +pachad > of him .

23 : 16 For God <00410 +>el > maketh my heart <03820 +leb > soft

<07401 +rakak > , and the Almighty <07706 +Shadday > troubleth

<00926 +bahal > me :

23 : 17 Because <03588 +kiy > I was not cut <06780 +tsemach >

off before <06440 +paniym > the darkness <02822 +choshek > , [

neither ] hath he covered <03680 +kacah > the darkness <00652

+>ophel > from my face <06440 +paniym > .

24 : 01 . Why <04069 +madduwa< > , seeing <07200 +ra>ah > times

<06256 +<eth > are not hidden <06845 +tsaphan > from the

Almighty <07706 +Shadday > , do they that know <05234 +nakar >

him not see <02372 +chazah > his days <03117 +yowm > ?

24 : 02 [ Some ] remove <05472 +cuwg > the landmarks <01367

+g@buwlah > ; they violently <01497 +gazal > take <01497 +gazal

thereof ] .

24 : 03 They drive <05090 +nahag > away the ass <02543 +chamowr

<02254 +chabal > .

24 : 04 They turn <05186 +natah > the needy <34> out of the way

<01870 +derek > : the poor <06035 +<anav > of the earth <00776

+>erets > hide <2244> themselves together <03162 +yachad > .

24 : 05 Behold <02005 +hen > , [ as ] wild <06501 +pere> > asses

<06501 +pere> > in the desert <04057 +midbar > , go <03318

+yatsa> > they forth <03318 +yatsa> > to their work <06467

+po<al > ; rising <07836 +shachar > betimes <07836 +shachar >

for a prey <02964 +tereph > : the wilderness <06160 +<arabah > [

yieldeth ] food <03899 +lechem > for them [ and ] for [ their ]

children <05288 +na<ar > .

24 : 06 They reap <07114 +qatsar > [ every one ] his corn <01098

+b@liyl > in the field <07704 +sadeh > : and they gather <03953

+laqash > the vintage <03754 +kerem > of the wicked <07563

+rasha< > .

24 : 07 They cause the naked <06174 +<arowm > to lodge <03885

+luwn > without <01097 +b@liy > clothing <03830 +l@buwsh > ,

that [ they have ] no <00369 +>ayin > covering <03682 +k@cuwth >

in the cold <07135 +qarah > .

24 : 08 They are wet <07372 +ratab > with the showers <02230

+zerem > of the mountains <02022 +har > , and embrace <02263

+chabaq > the rock <06697 +tsuwr > for want <01097 +b@liy > of a

shelter <04268 +machaceh > .

24 : 09 They pluck <01497 +gazal > the fatherless <03490

+yathowm > from the breast <07699 +shad > , and take <02254

+chabal > a pledge <02254 +chabal > of the poor <06041 +<aniy > .

24 : 10 They cause [ him ] to go <01980 +halak > naked <06174

+<arowm > without <01097 +b@liy > clothing <03830 +l@buwsh > ,

and they take <05375 +nasa> > away the sheaf <06016 +<omer > [

from ] the hungry <07456 +ra<eb > ;

24 : 11 [ Which ] make oil <06671 +tsahar > within <00996 +beyn

their ] winepresses <03342 +yeqeb > , and suffer thirst <06770

24 : 12 Men <04962 +math > groan <05008 +na>aq > from out of the

city <05892 +<iyr > , and the soul <05315 +nephesh > of the

wounded <02491 +chalal > crieth <07768 +shava< > out : yet God

<00433 +>elowahh > layeth <07760 +suwm > not folly <08604

+tiphlah > [ to them ] .

24 : 13 . They are of those that rebel <04775 +marad > against

the light <00216 +>owr > ; they know <05234 +nakar > not the

ways <01870 +derek > thereof , nor <03808 +lo> > abide <03427

+yashab > in the paths <05410 +nathiyb > thereof .

24 : 14 The murderer <07523 +ratsach > rising <07925 +shakam >

with the light <00216 +>owr > killeth <06991 +qatal > the poor

<06041 +<aniy > and needy <34> , and in the night <03915 +layil

24 : 15 The eye <05869 +<ayin > also of the adulterer <05003

<05869 +<ayin > shall see <07789 +shuwr > me : and disguiseth

<05643 +cether > [ his ] face <06440 +paniym > .

24 : 16 In the dark <02822 +choshek > they dig <02864 +chathar >

through <02864 +chathar > houses <01004 +bayith > , [ which ]

they had marked <02856 +chatham > for themselves in the daytime

<03119 +yowmam > : they know <03045 +yada< > not the light

<00216 +>owr > .

24 : 17 For the morning <01242 +boqer > [ is ] to them even as

the shadow <06757 +tsalmaveth > of death <06757 +tsalmaveth > :

if <03588 +kiy > [ one ] know <05234 +nakar > [ them , they are

in ] the terrors <01091 +ballahah > of the shadow <06757

+tsalmaveth > of death <06757 +tsalmaveth > .

24 : 18 . He [ is ] swift <07031 + qal > as the waters <04325

+qalal > in the earth <00776 +>erets > : he beholdeth <06437

24 : 19 Drought <06723 +tsiyah > and heat <02527 +chom > consume

<01497 +gazal > the snow <07950 +sheleg > waters <04325 +mayim >

: [ so doth ] the grave <07585 +sh@>owl > [ those which ] have

sinned <02398 +chata> > .

24 : 20 The womb <07358 +rechem > shall forget <07911 +shakach >

him ; the worm <07415 +rimmah > shall feed sweetly <04988

+mathaq > on him ; he shall be no <03808 +lo> > more <05750

24 : 21 He evil <07462 +ra<ah > entreateth the barren <06135

+<aqar > [ that ] beareth <03205 +yalad > not : and doeth not

good <03190 +yatab > to the widow <00490 +>almanah > .

24 : 22 He draweth <04900 +mashak > also the mighty <47> with

his power <03581 +koach > : he riseth <06965 +quwm > up , and no

<03808 +lo> > [ man ] is sure <00539 +>aman > of life <02416

24 : 23 [ Though ] it be given <05414 +nathan > him [ to be ] in

safety <00983 +betach > , whereon he resteth <08172 +sha<an > ;

yet his eyes <05869 +<ayin > [ are ] upon their ways <01870

24 : 24 They are exalted <07426 +ramam > for a little <04592

out of the way <01870 +derek > as all <03605 +kol > [ other ] ,

and cut <05243 +namal > off as the tops <07218 +ro>sh > of the

24 : 25 And if <00518 +>im > [ it be ] not [ so ] now <00645

25 : 01 . Then answered <06030 +<anah > Bildad <01085 +Bildad >

the Shuhite <07747 +Shuchiy > , and said <00559 +>amar > ,

25 : 02 Dominion <04910 +mashal > and fear <06343 +pachad > [

25 : 03 Is there any number <04557 +micpar > of his armies

25 : 05 Behold <02005 +hen > even to the moon <03394 +yareach > ,

26 : 01 . But Job <00347 +>Iyowb > answered <06030 +<anah > and

26 : 02 How <04100 +mah > hast thou helped <05826 +<azar > [ him

26 : 03 How <04100 +mah > hast thou counselled <03289 +ya<ats >

26 : 04 To whom <04310 +miy > hast thou uttered <05046 +nagad >

words <04405 +millah > ? and whose <04310 +miy > spirit <05397

I will not remove <05493 +cuwr > mine integrity <08538 +tummah >

27 : 08 For what <04100 +mah > [ is ] the hope <08615 +tiqvah >

27 : 22 For [ God ] shall cast <07993 +shalak > upon him , and

29 : 08 The young <05288 +na<ar > men saw <07200 +ra>ah > me ,

29 : 09 The princes <08269 +sar > refrained <06113 +<atsar >

29 : 10 The nobles <05057 +nagiyd > held <2244> their peace

29 : 11 When <03588 +kiy > the ear <00241 +>ozen > heard <08085

when the eye <05869 +<ayin > saw <07200 +ra>ah > [ me ] , it

gave witness <05749 +<uwd > to me :

29 : 12 Because <03588 +kiy > I delivered <04422 +malat > the

29 : 13 The blessing <01293 +B@rakah > of him that was ready to

29 : 14 I put <03847 +labash > on righteousness <06664 +tsedeq >

, and it clothed <03847 +labash > me : my judgment <04941

29 : 15 I was eyes <05869 +<ayin > to the blind <05787 +<ivver >

29 : 16 I [ was ] a father <1> to the poor <34> : and the cause

29 : 17 And I brake <07665 +shabar > the jaws <04973

29 : 18 . Then I said <00559 +>amar > , I shall die <01478

29 : 20 My glory <03519 +kabowd > [ was ] fresh <02319 +chadash

29 : 21 Unto me [ men ] gave ear <08085 +shama< > , and waited

29 : 23 And they waited <03176 +yachal > for me as for the rain

29 : 24 [ If ] I laughed <07832 +sachaq > on <00413 +>el > them ,

29 : 25 I chose <00977 +bachar > out their way <01870 +derek > ,

me , in whom <05921 +<al > old age <03624 +kelach > was perished

<6> ?

30 : 03 For want <02639 +checer > and famine <03720 +kaphan > [

they were ] solitary <01565 +galmuwd > ; fleeing <06207 +<araq >

into the wilderness <06723 +tsiyah > in former <00570 +>emesh >

time <00570 +>emesh > desolate <07722 +show> > and waste <04875

30 : 04 Who cut <06998 +qataph > up mallows <04408 +malluwach >

by the bushes <07880 +siyach > , and juniper <07574 +rethem >

roots <08328 +sheresh > [ for ] their meat <03899 +lechem > .

30 : 05 They were driven <01644 +garash > forth from among

<01460 +gev > [ men ] , ( they cried <07321 +ruwa< > after

<05921 +<al > them as [ after <05921 +<al > ] a thief <01590

30 : 06 To dwell <07931 +shakan > in the clifts <06178 +<aruwts

of the earth <06083 +<aphar > , and [ in ] the rocks <03710

30 : 07 Among <00996 +beyn > the bushes <07880 +siyach > they

brayed <05101 +nahaq > ; under <08478 +tachath > the nettles

<02738 +charuwl > they were gathered <05596 +caphach > together .

30 : 08 [ They were ] children <01121 +ben > of fools <05036

men : they were viler <05217 +naka> > than <04480 +min > the

earth <00776 +>erets > .

30 : 09 And now <06258 +<attah > am I their song <05058

30 : 10 They abhor <08581 +ta<ab > me , they flee <07368 +rachaq

to spit <07536 +roq > in my face <06440 +paniym > .

30 : 11 Because <03588 +kiy > he hath loosed <06605 +pathach >

my cord <03499 +yether > , and afflicted <06031 +<anah > me ,

they have also let loose <07971 +shalach > the bridle <07448

30 : 12 Upon [ my ] right <03225 +yamiyn > [ hand <03225 +yamiyn

<07971 +shalach > away my feet <07272 +regel > , and they raise

<05549 +calal > up against <05921 +<al > me the ways <00734

30 : 13 They mar <05420 +nathac > my path <05410 +nathiyb > ,

they set forward <03276 +ya<al > my calamity <01942 +havvah > ,

they have no <03808 +lo> > helper <05826 +<azar > .

30 : 14 They came <00857 +>athah > [ upon me ] as a wide <07342

+rachab > breaking <06556 +perets > in [ of waters ] : in the

desolation <07722 +show> > they rolled <01556 +galal >

themselves [ upon me ] .

30 : 15 . Terrors <01091 +ballahah > are turned <02015 +haphak

+n@diybah > as the wind <07307 +ruwach > : and my welfare <03444

+y@shuw<ah > passeth <05674 +<abar > away as a cloud <05645 +<ab

30 : 16 And now <06258 +<attah > my soul <05315 +nephesh > is

poured <08210 +shaphak >out upon me ; the days <03117 +yowm > of

affliction <06040 +<oniy > have taken <00270 +>achaz > hold

<00270 +>achaz > upon me .

30 : 17 My bones <06106 +<etsem > are pierced <05365 +naqar > in

me in the night <03915 +layil > season : and my sinews <06207

+<araq > take <07901 +shakab > no <03808 +lo> > rest <07901

+shakab > .

30 : 18 By the great <07227 +rab > force <03581 +koach > [ of my

disease ] is my garment <03830 +l@buwsh > changed <02664

+chaphas > : it bindeth <00247 +>azar > me about <00247 +>azar >

as the collar <06310 +peh > of my coat <03801 +k@thoneth > .

30 : 19 He hath cast <03384 +yarah > me into the mire <02563

+chomer > , and I am become <04911 +mashal > like <04911 +mashal

30 : 20 I cry <07768 +shava< > unto thee , and thou dost not

hear <06030 +<anah > me : I stand <05975 +<amad > up , and thou

regardest <00995 +biyn > me [ not ] .

30 : 21 Thou art become <02015 +haphak > cruel <00393 +>akzar >

to me : with thy strong <06108 +<otsem > hand <03027 +yad > thou

opposest <07852 +satam > thyself against me .

30 : 22 Thou liftest <05375 +nasa> > me up to the wind <07307

+ruwach > ; thou causest me to ride <07392 +rakab > [ upon it ] ,

and dissolvest <04127 +muwg > my substance <07738 +shavah > .

30 : 23 For I know <03045 +yada< > [ that ] thou wilt bring

<07725 +shuwb > me [ to ] death <04194 +maveth > , and [ to ]

the house <01004 +bayith > appointed <04150 +mow<ed > for all

<03605 +kol > living <02416 +chay > .

30 : 24 Howbeit he will not stretch <07971 +shalach > out [ his

<00518 +>im > they cry <07769 +shuwa< > in his destruction

<06365 +piyd >

30 : 25 Did not I weep <01058 +bakah > for him that was in

trouble ? was [ not ] my soul <05315 +nephesh > grieved <05701

+<agam > for the poor <34> ?

30 : 26 When <03588 +kiy > I looked <06960 +qavah > for good

<02896 +towb > , then evil <07451 +ra< > came <00935 +bow> > [

30 : 27 My bowels <04578 +me<ah > boiled <07570 +rathach > , and

rested <01826 +damam > not : the days <03117 +yowm > of

affliction <06040 +<oniy > prevented <06923 +qadam > me .

30 : 28 I went <01980 +halak > mourning <06937 +qadar > without

<03808 +lo> > the sun <02535 +chammah > : I stood <06965 +quwm >

up , [ and ] I cried <07768 +shava< > in the congregation <06951

+qahal > .

30 : 29 I am a brother <00251 +>ach > to dragons <08577 +tanniyn

30 : 30 My skin <05785 +<owr > is black <07835 +shachar > upon

me , and my bones <06106 +<etsem > are burned <02787 +charar >

with heat <02721 +choreb > .

30 : 31 My harp <03658 +kinnowr > also is [ turned ] to mourning

<60> , and my organ <05748 +<uwgab > into the voice <06963 +qowl

31 : 01 . I made <03772 +karath > a covenant <01285 +b@riyth >

with mine eyes <05869 +<ayin > ; why <04100 +mah > then should I

think <00995 +biyn > upon a maid <01330 +b@thuwlah > ?

31 : 02 For what <04100 +mah > portion <02506 +cheleq > of God

<00433 +>elowahh > [ is there ] from above <04605 +ma<al > ? and

[ what ] inheritance <05159 +nachalah > of the Almighty <07706

+Shadday > from on high <04791 +marowm > ?

31 : 03 [ Is ] not destruction <00343 +>eyd > to the wicked

<05767 +<avval > ? and a strange <05235 +neker > [ punishment ]

to the workers <06466 +pa<al > of iniquity <00205 +>aven > ?

31 : 04 Doth not he see <07200 +ra>ah > my ways <01870 +derek > ,

and count <05608 +caphar > all <03605 +kol > my steps <06806

31 : 05 If <00518 +>im > I have walked <01980 +halak > with

hasted <02363 +chuwsh > to deceit <04820 +mirmah > ;

31 : 06 Let me be weighed <08254 +shaqal > in an even <06664

may know <03045 +yada< > mine integrity <08538 +tummah > .

31 : 07 If <00518 +>im > my step <00838 +>ashur > hath turned

<05186 +natah > out of the way <01870 +derek > , and mine heart

31 : 08 [ Then ] let me sow <02232 +zara< > , and let another

31 : 09 . If <00518 +>im > mine heart <03820 +leb > have been

31 : 10 [ Then ] let my wife <00802 +>ishshah > grind <02912

31 : 11 For this <01931 +huw> > [ is ] an heinous <02154 +zimmah

31 : 12 For it [ is ] a fire <00784 +>esh > [ that ] consumeth

<00398 +>akal > to destruction <11> , and would root <08327

31 : 13 If <00518 +>im > I did despise <03988 +ma>ac > the cause

31 : 14 What <04100 +mah > then shall I do when <03588 +kiy >

God <00410 +>el > riseth <06965 +quwm > up ? and when <03588

31 : 15 Did not he that made <06213 +<asah > me in the womb

31 : 18 ( For from my youth <05271 +na<uwr > he was brought

31 : 32 The stranger <01616 +ger > did not lodge <03885 +luwn >

31 : 35 Oh that one would hear <08085 +shama< > me ! behold

[ that ] mine adversary had written <03789 +kathab > a book

31 : 36 Surely I would take <05375 +nasa> > it upon my shoulder

31 : 37 I would declare <05046 +nagad > unto him the number

32 : 02 Then was kindled <02734 +charah > the wrath <00639 +>aph

because <05921 +<al > he justified <06663 +tsadaq > himself

32 : 03 Also against his three <07969 +shalowsh > friends <07453

because they had found <04672 +matsa> > no <03808 +lo> > answer

<02734 +charah > .

32 : 06 . And Elihu <00453 +>Eliyhuw > the son <01121 +ben > of

32 : 07 I said <00559 +>amar > , Days <03117 +yowm > should

<08141 +shaneh > should teach <03045 +yada< > wisdom <02451

32 : 08 But [ there is ] a spirit <07307 +ruwach > in man <00582

Almighty <07706 +Shadday > giveth them understanding <00995

32 : 09 Great <07227 +rab > men are not [ always ] wise <02449

<00995 +biyn > judgment <04941 +mishpat > .

32 : 10 Therefore <03651 +ken > I said <00559 +>amar > , Hearken

<08085 +shama< > to me ; I also <00637 +>aph > will shew <02331

32 : 11 Behold <02005 +hen > , I waited <03176 +yachal > for

your words <01697 +dabar > ; I gave ear <00238 +>azan > to your

reasons <08394 +tabuwn > , whilst <05704 +<ad > ye searched

<02713 +chaqar > out what to say <04405 +millah > .

32 : 12 Yea , I attended <00995 +biyn > unto you , and , behold

<02009 +hinneh > , [ there was ] none <00369 +>ayin > of you

that convinced <03198 +yakach > Job <00347 +>Iyowb > , [ or ]

that answered <06030 +<anah > his words <00561 +>emer > :

32 : 13 Lest <06435 +pen > ye should say <00559 +>amar > , We

have found <04672 +matsa> > out wisdom <02451 +chokmah > : God

<00410 +>el > thrusteth <05086 +nadaph > him down , not man

<00376 +>iysh > .

32 : 14 Now he hath not directed <06186 +<arak > [ his ] words

32 : 15 . They were amazed <02865 +chathath > , they answered

<06030 +<anah > no <03808 +lo> > more <05750 +<owd > : they left

<06275 +<athaq > off speaking <04405 +millah > .

32 : 16 When I had waited <03176 +yachal > , ( for they spake

<01696 +dabar > not , but stood <05975 +<amad > still <05975

more <05750 +<owd > ; )

32 : 17 [ I said ] , I will answer <06030 +<anah > also <00637

shew <02331 +chavah > mine opinion <01843 +dea< > .

32 : 18 For I am full <04390 +male> > of matter <04405 +millah >

, the spirit <07307 +ruwach > within <00990 +beten > me

constraineth <06693 +tsuwq > me .

32 : 19 Behold <02009 +hinneh > , my belly <00990 +beten > [ is

<06605 +pathach > ; it is ready to burst <01234 +baqa< > like

new <02319 +chadash > bottles <00178 +>owb > .

32 : 20 I will speak <01696 +dabar > , that I may be refreshed

<07304 +ravach > : I will open <06605 +pathach > my lips <08193

32 : 21 Let me not , I pray <04994 +na> > you , accept <05375

neither <03808 +lo> > let me give <01478 +gava< > flattering

32 : 22 For I know <03045 +yada< > not to give flattering <03665

+kana< > titles ; [ in so doing ] my maker <06213 +<asah > would

soon <04592 +m@<at > take <05375 +nasa> > me away .

33 : 01 . Wherefore <00199 +>uwlam > , Job <00347 +>Iyowb > , I

pray <04994 +na> > thee , hear <08085 +shama< > my speeches

<04405 +millah > , and hearken <00238 +>azan > to all <03605

33 : 02 Behold <02009 +hinneh > , now <04994 +na> > I have

opened <06605 +pathach > my mouth <06310 +peh > , my tongue

<03956 +lashown > hath spoken <01696 +dabar > in my mouth <02441

33 : 03 My words <00561 +>emer > [ shall be of ] the uprightness

clearly <01305 +barar > .

33 : 04 The Spirit <07307 +ruwach > of God <00410 +>el > hath

made <06213 +<asah > me , and the breath <05397 +n@shamah > of

33 : 05 If <00518 +>im > thou canst <03201 +yakol > answer

before <06440 +paniym > me , stand <03320 +yatsab > up .

33 : 06 Behold <02005 +hen > , I [ am ] according to thy wish

<06310 +peh > in God s <00410 +>el > stead : I also <01571 +gam

33 : 07 Behold <02009 +hinneh > , my terror <00367 +>eymah >

shall not make thee afraid <01204 +ba<ath > , neither <03808

+lo> > shall my hand <00405 +>ekeph > be heavy <03513 +kabad >

upon thee .

33 : 08 . Surely <00389 +>ak > thou hast spoken <00559 +>amar >

in mine hearing <00241 +>ozen > , and I have heard <08085

+shama< > the voice <06963 +qowl > of [ thy ] words <04405

33 : 09 I am clean <02134 +zak > without <01097 +b@liy >

transgression <06588 +pesha< > , I [ am ] innocent <02643 +chaph

33 : 10 Behold <02005 +hen > , he findeth <04672 +matsa> >

occasions <08569 +t@nuw>ah > against <05921 +<al > me , he

counteth <02803 +chashab > me for his enemy <00341 +>oyeb > ,

33 : 11 He putteth <07760 +suwm > my feet <07272 +regel > in the

stocks <05465 +cad > , he marketh <08104 +shamar > all <03605

33 : 12 Behold <02005 +hen > , [ in ] this <02063 +zo>th > thou

art not just <06663 +tsadaq > : I will answer <06030 +<anah >

thee , that God <00433 +>elowahh > is greater <07235 +rabah >

than man <00582 +>enowsh > .

33 : 13 Why <04069 +madduwa< > dost thou strive <07378 +riyb >

against <00413 +>el > him ? for he giveth not account <06030

+<anah > of any <03605 +kol > of his matters <01697 +dabar > .

33 : 14 . For God <00410 +>el > speaketh <01696 +dabar > once

<00259 +>echad > , yea twice <08147 +sh@nayim > , [ yet man ]

perceiveth <07789 +shuwr > it not .

33 : 15 In a dream <02472 +chalowm > , in a vision <02384

+chizzayown > of the night <03915 +layil > , when deep <08639

+tardemah > sleep falleth <05307 +naphal > upon men <00582

<04904 +mishkab > ;

33 : 16 Then <00227 +>az > he openeth <01540 +galah > the ears

33 : 17 That he may withdraw <05493 +cuwr > man <00120 +>adam >

[ from his ] purpose<04639 +ma<aseh > , and hide <03680 +kacah >

pride <01466 +gevah > from man <01397 +geber > .

33 : 18 He keepeth <02820 +chasak > back <02820 +chasak > his

soul <05315 +nephesh > from the pit <07845 +shachath > , and his

life <02416 +chay > from perishing <05674 +<abar > by the sword

<07973 +shelach > .

33 : 19 . He is chastened <03198 +yakach > also with pain

<04341 +mak>ob > upon his bed <04904 +mishkab > , and the

multitude <07379 +riyb > of his bones <06106 +<etsem > with

33 : 20 So that his life <02416 +chay > abhorreth <02092 +zaham

33 : 21 His flesh <01320 +basar > is consumed <03615 +kalah >

his bones <06106 +<etsem > [ that ] were not seen <07200 +ra>ah

33 : 22 Yea , his soul <05315 +nephesh > draweth near <07126

33 : 23 If <00518 +>im > there be a messenger <04397 +mal>ak >

33 : 25 His flesh <01320 +basar > shall be fresher <07375

33 : 27 He looketh <07789 +shuwr > upon men <00582 +>enowsh > ,

and [ if any ] say <00559 +>amar > , I have sinned <02398

right <03477 +yashar > , and it profited <07737 +shavah > me not

33 : 28 He will deliver <06299 +padah > his soul <05315 +nephesh

33 : 29 . Lo <02005 +hen > , all <03605 +kol > these <00428

33 : 30 To bring <07725 +shuwb > back <07725 +shuwb > his soul

enlightened <00215 +>owr > with the light <00216 +>owr > of the

33 : 31 Mark <07181 +qashab > well <07181 +qashab > , O Job

<00347 +>Iyowb > , hearken <08085 +shama< > unto me : hold

33 : 32 If <00518 +>im > thou hast <03426 +yesh > any thing to

33 : 33 If <00518 +>im > not , hearken <08085 +shama< > unto me :

hold <02790 +charash > thy peace <02790 +charash > , and I

34 : 01 . Furthermore Elihu <00453 +>Eliyhuw > answered <06030

34 : 02 Hear <08085 +shama< > my words <04405 +millah > , O ye

wise <02450 +chakam > [ men ] ; and give ear <00238 +>azan >

34 : 03 For the ear <00241 +>ozen > trieth <00974 +bachan >

34 : 04 Let us choose <00977 +bachar > to us judgment <04941

ourselves what <04100 +mah > [ is ] good <02896 +towb > .

34 : 05 For Job <00347 +>Iyowb > hath said <00559 +>amar > , I

am righteous <06663 +tsadaq > : and God <00410 +>el > hath taken

<05493 +cuwr > away <05493 +cuwr > my judgment <04941 +mishpat >

34 : 06 Should I lie <03576 +kazab > against <05921 +<al > my

incurable <00605 +>anash > without <01097 +b@liy > transgression

34 : 07 What <04310 +miy > man <01397 +geber > [ is ] like Job

<00347 +>Iyowb > , [ who ] drinketh <08354 +shathah > up

scorning <03933 +la<ag > like water <04325 +mayim > ?

34 : 09 For he hath said <00559 +>amar > , It profiteth <05532

should delight <07521 +ratsah > himself with God <00430

34 : 10 . Therefore <03651 +ken > hearken <08085 +shama< > unto

far <02486 +chaliylah > be it from God <00410 +>el > , [ that he

34 : 11 For the work <06467 +po<al > of a man <00120 +>adam >

34 : 12 Yea <00637 +>aph > , surely <00551 +>omnam > God <00410

his spirit <07307 +ruwach > and his breath <05397 +n@shamah > ;

34 : 15 All <03605 +kol > flesh <01320 +basar > shall perish

34 : 17 Shall even <00637 +>aph > he that hateth <08130 +sane> >

right <04941 +mishpat > govern <02280 +chabash > ? and wilt

thou condemn <07561 +rasha< > him that is most <03524 +kabbiyr >

just <06662 +tsaddiyq > ?

34 : 18 [ Is it fit ] to say <00559 +>amar > to a king <04428

the work <04639 +ma<aseh > of his hands <03027 +yad > .

34 : 20 In a moment <07281 +rega< > shall they die <04191 +muwth

without <03808 +lo> > hand <03027 +yad > .

34 : 21 For his eyes <05869 +<ayin > [ are ] upon the ways

<01870 +derek > of man <00376 +>iysh > , and he seeth <07200

34 : 22 [ There is ] no <00369 +>ayin > darkness <02822 +choshek

34 : 23 For he will not lay <07760 +suwm > upon man <00376

that he should enter <01980 +halak > into judgment <04941

34 : 25 Therefore <03651 +ken > he knoweth <05234 +nakar > their

34 : 27 Because they turned <05493 +cuwr > back <05493 +cuwr >

35 : 05 Look <05027 +nabat > unto the heavens <08064 +shamayim >

35 : 09 . By reason of the multitude <07230 +rob > of

36 : 02 Suffer <03803 +kathar > me a little <02191 +ze<eyr > ,

36 : 03 I will fetch <05375 +nasa> > my knowledge <01843 +dea< >

from afar <07350 +rachowq > , and will ascribe <05414 +nathan >

righteousness <06664 +tsedeq > to my Maker <06466 +pa<al > .

36 : 04 For truly <00551 +>omnam > my words <04405 +millah > [

36 : 05 . Behold <02005 +hen > , God <00410 +>el > [ is ]

36 : 06 He preserveth <02421 +chayah > not the life <02421

36 : 07 He withdraweth <01639 +gara< > not his eyes <05869

<04428 +melek > [ are they ] on the throne <03678 +kicce> > ;

yea , he doth establish <03427 +yashab > them for ever <05331

36 : 08 And if <00518 +>im > [ they be ] bound <00631 +>acar >

in fetters <02131 +ziyqah > , [ and ] be holden <03920 +lakad >

in cords <02256 +chebel > of affliction <06040 +<oniy > ;

36 : 09 Then he sheweth <05046 +nagad > them their work <06467

+po<al > , and their transgressions <06588 +pesha< > that they

have exceeded <01396 +gabar > .

36 : 10 He openeth <01540 +galah > also their ear <00241 +>ozen

36 : 11 If <00518 +>im > they obey <08085 +shama< > and serve

<05647 +<abad > [ him ] , they shall spend <03615 +kalah > their

days <03117 +yowm > in prosperity <02896 +towb > , and their

years <08141 +shaneh > in pleasures <05273 +na<iym > .

36 : 12 But if <00518 +>im > they obey <08085 +shama< > not ,

they shall perish <05674 +<abar > by the sword <07973 +shelach >

, and they shall die <01478 +gava< > without <01097 +b@liy >

knowledge <01847 +da<ath > .

36 : 13 But the hypocrites <02611 +chaneph > in heart <03820

+leb > heap <07760 +suwm > up wrath <00639 +>aph > : they cry

<07768 +shava< > not when <03588 +kiy > he bindeth <00631 +>acar

36 : 14 They die <04191 +muwth > in youth <05290 +no<ar > , and

their life <02416 +chay > [ is ] among the unclean <06945

+qadesh > .

36 : 15 . He delivereth <02502 +chalats > the poor <06041

+galah > their ears <00241 +>ozen > in oppression <03906

+lachats > .

36 : 16 Even so would he have removed <05493 +cuwr > thee out of

the strait <06862 +tsar > [ into ] a broad <07338 +rachab >

place , where [ there is ] no <03808 +lo> > straitness <04164

thy table <07979 +shulchan > [ should be ] full <04390 +male> >

of fatness <01880 +deshen > .

36 : 17 But thou hast fulfilled <04390 +male> > the judgment

<01779 +diyn > of the wicked <07563 +rasha< > : judgment <01779

+diyn > and justice <04941 +mishpat > take <08551 +tamak > hold

<08551 +tamak > [ on thee ] .

36 : 18 Because <03588 +kiy > [ there is ] wrath <02534 +chemah

36 : 19 Will he esteem <06186 +<arak > thy riches <07769 +shuwa<

36 : 20 Desire <07602 +sha>aph > not the night <03915 +layil > ,

when people <05971 +<am > are cut <05927 +<alah > off in their

place <08478 +tachath > .

36 : 21 Take heed <08104 +shamar > , regard <06437 +panah > not

iniquity <00205 +>aven > : for this <02088 +zeh > hast thou

chosen <00970 +bachuwr > rather than affliction <06040 +<oniy > .

36 : 22 Behold <02005 +hen > , God <00410 +>el > exalteth <07682

teacheth <03384 +yarah > like <03644 +k@mow > him ?

36 : 23 Who <04310 +miy > hath enjoined <06485 +paqad > him his

36 : 25 Every <03605 +kol > man <00120 +>adam > may see <02372

[ it ] afar <07350 +rachowq > off .

36 : 26 Behold <02005 +hen > , God <00410 +>el > [ is ] great

neither <03808 +lo> > can the number <04557 +micpar > of his

36 : 27 For he maketh small <01639 +gara< > the drops <05197

down rain <04306 +matar > according to the vapour <00108 +>ed >

36 : 29 Also <00637 +>aph > can [ any ] understand <00995 +biyn

36 : 30 Behold <02005 +hen > , he spreadeth <06566 +paras > his

light <00216 +>owr > upon it , and covereth <03680 +kacah > the

bottom <08328 +sheresh > of the sea <03220 +yam > .

36 : 31 For by them judgeth <01777 +diyn > he the people <05971

abundance <04342 +makbiyr > .

36 : 32 With clouds <03709 +kaph > he covereth <03680 +kacah >

the light <00216 +>owr > ; and commandeth <06680 +tsavah > it [

not to shine ] by [ the cloud ] that cometh <06293 +paga< >

betwixt <06293 +paga< > .

36 : 33 The noise <07452 +rea< > thereof sheweth <05046 +nagad >

37 : 01 . At this <02063 +zo>th > also <00637 +>aph > my heart

37 : 02 Hear <08085 +shama< > attentively <08085 +shama< > the

noise <07267 +rogez > ofhis voice <06963 +qowl > , and the sound

<01899 +hegeh > [ that ] goeth <03318 +yatsa> > out of his mouth

<06310 +peh > .

37 : 03 He directeth <03474 +yashar > it under <08478 +tachath >

the whole <03605 +kol > heaven <08064 +shamayim > , and his

lightning <00216 +>owr > unto the ends <03671 +kanaph > of the

earth <00776 +>erets > .

37 : 04 After <00310 +>achar > it a voice <06963 +qowl > roareth

not stay <06117 +<aqab > them when <03588 +kiy > his voice

37 : 05 God <00410 +>el > thundereth <07481 +ra<am >

marvellously <06381 +pala> > with his voice <06963 +qowl > ;

great <01419 +gadowl > things doeth <06213 +<asah > he , which

we cannot <00408 +>al > comprehend <03045 +yada< > .

37 : 06 . For he saith <00559 +>amar > to the snow <07950

37 : 07 He sealeth <02856 +chatham > up the hand <03027 +yad >

of every <03605 +kol > man <00120 +>adam > ; that all <03605

37 : 08 Then the beasts <02416 +chay > go <00935 +bow> > into

37 : 09 Out of the south <02315 +cheder > cometh <00935 +bow> >

the whirlwind <05492 +cuwphah > : and cold <07135 +qarah > out

of the north <04215 +m@zareh > .

37 : 10 By the breath <05397 +n@shamah > of God <00410 +>el >

frost <07140 +qerach > is given <05414 +nathan > : and the

37 : 11 Also <00637 +>aph > by watering <07377 +riy > he

37 : 12 And it is turned <02015 +haphak > round <04524 +mecab >

37 : 13 He causeth it to come <04672 +matsa> > , whether <00518

37 : 17 How <00834 +>aher > thy garments <00899 +beged > [ are ]

37 : 18 Hast thou with him spread <07554 +raqa< > out the sky

37 : 19 Teach <03045 +yada< > us what <04100 +mah > we shall say

37 : 21 . And now <06258 +<attah > [ men ] see <07200 +ra>ah >

not the bright <00925 +bahiyr > light <00216 +>owr > which

40 : 05 Once <00259 +>echad > have I spoken <01696 +dabar > ;

40 : 06 . Then answered <06030 +<anah > the LORD <03068

+Y@hovah > unto Job <00347 +>Iyowb > out of the whirlwind <05591

+ca<ar > , and said <00559 +>amar > ,

40 : 07 Gird <00247 +>azar > up thy loins <02504 +chalats > now

<04994 +na> > like a man <01397 +geber > : I will demand <07592

40 : 08 Wilt thou also <00637 +>aph > disannul <06565 +parar >

my judgment <04941 +mishpat > ? wilt thou condemn <07561

+rasha< > me , that thou mayest be righteous <06663 +tsadaq > ?

40 : 09 Hast thou an arm <02220 +z@rowa< > like God <00410 +>el

+qowl > like <03644 +k@mow > him ?

40 : 10 Deck <05710 +<adah > thyself now <04994 +na> > [ with ]

majesty <01347 +ga>own > and excellency <01363 +gobahh > ; and

array <03847 +labash > thyself with glory <01935 +howd > and

beauty <01926 +hadar > .

40 : 11 Cast <06327 +puwts > abroad <06327 +puwts > the rage

<05678 +<ebrah > of thy wrath <00639 +>aph > : and behold <07200

+ra>ah > every <03605 +kol > one [ that is ] proud <01343 +ge>eh

40 : 12 Look <07200 +ra>ah > on every <03605 +kol > one [ that

is ] proud <01343 +ge>eh > , [ and ] bring <03665 +kana< > him

low <03665 +kana< > ; and tread <01915 +hadak > down the wicked

<07563 +rasha< > in their place <08478 +tachath > .

40 : 13 Hide <02934 +taman > them in the dust <06083 +<aphar >

together <03162 +yachad > ; [ and ] bind <02280 +chabash > their

faces <06440 +paniym > in secret <02934 +taman > .

40 : 14 Then will I also <01571 +gam > confess <03034 +yadah >

unto thee that thine own right <03225 +yamiyn > hand <03225

+yamiyn > can save <03467 +yasha< > thee .

40 : 15 . Behold <02009 +hinneh > now <04994 +na> > behemoth

<00930 +b@hemowth > , which <00834 +>aher > I made <06213 +<asah

as an ox <01241 +baqar > .

40 : 16 Lo <02009 +hinneh > now <04994 +na> > , his strength

<03581 +koach > [ is ] in his loins <04975 +mothen > , and his

force <00202 +>own > [ is ] in the navel <08306 +shariyr > of

his belly <00990 +beten > .

40 : 17 He moveth <02654 +chaphets > his tail <02180 +zanab >

like <03644 +k@mow > a cedar <00730 +>erez > : the sinews <01517

+giyd > of his stones <06344 +pachad > are wrapped <08276 +sarag

40 : 18 His bones <06106 +<etsem > [ are as ] strong <00650

+>aphiyq > pieces of brass <05154 +n@chuwshah > ; his bones

<01634 +gerem > [ are ] like bars <04800 +merchab > of iron

<01270 +barzel > .

40 : 19 He [ is ] the chief <07725 +shuwb > of the ways <01870

+derek > of God <00410 +>el > : he that made <06213 +<asah > him

can make his sword <02719 +chereb > to approach <05066 +nagash >

[ unto him ] .

40 : 20 Surely <03588 +kiy > the mountains <02022 +har > bring

<05375 +nasa> > him forth food <00944 +buwl > , where <08033

+sham > all <03605 +kol > the beasts <02416 +chay > of the field

<07704 +sadeh > play <07832 +sachaq > .

40 : 21 He lieth <07901 +shakab > under <08478 +tachath > the

shady <06628 +tse>el > trees , in the covert <05643 +cether > of

the reed <07070 +qaneh > , and fens <01207 +bitstsah > .

40 : 22 The shady <06628 +tse>el > trees cover <05526 +cakak >

him [ with ] their shadow <06752 +tselel > ; the willows <06155

+<arab > of the brook <05158 +nachal > compass <05437 +cabab >

him about .

40 : 23 Behold <02005 +hen > , he drinketh <06231 +<ashaq > up a

river <05104 +nahar > , [ and ] hasteth <02648 +chaphaz > not :

he trusteth <00982 +batach > that he can draw <01518 +giyach >

up Jordan <03383 +Yarden > into <00413 +>el > his mouth <06310

+peh > .

40 : 24 He taketh <03947 +laqach > it with his eyes <05869

+<ayin > : [ his ] nose <00639 +>aph > pierceth <05344 +naqab >

through snares <04170 +mowqesh > .

41 : 01 . Canst thou draw <04900 +mashak > out leviathan <03882

+livyathan > with an hook <00100 +>agmown > ? or his tongue

<03956 +lashown > with a cord <02256 +chebel > [ which ] thou

lettest <08257 +shaqa< > down <08257 +shaqa< > ?

41 : 02 Canst thou put <07760 +suwm > an hook <02443 +chakkah >

into his nose <00639 +>aph > ? or bore <05344 +naqab > his jaw

<03895 +l@chiy > through with a thorn <02336 +chowach > ?

41 : 03 Will he make many <07235 +rabah > supplications <08469

+tachanuwn > unto thee ? will he speak <01696 +dabar > soft

<07390 +rak > [ words ] unto thee ?

41 : 04 Will he make <03772 +karath > a covenant <01285 +b@riyth

> with thee ? wilt thou take <03947 +laqach > him for a servant

<05650 +<ebed > for ever <05769 +<owlam > ?

41 : 05 Wilt thou play <07832 +sachaq > with him as [ with ] a

bird <06833 +tsippowr > ? or wilt thou bind <07194 +qashar >

him for thy maidens <05291 +na<arah > ?

41 : 06 Shall the companions <02271 +chabbar > make a banquet

<03738 +karah > of him ? shall they part <02673 +chatsah > him

among <00996 +beyn > the merchants <03669 +K@na<aniy > ?

41 : 07 Canst thou fill <04390 +male> > his skin <05785 +<owr >

with barbed <07905 +sukkah > irons <07905 +sukkah > ? or his

head <07218 +ro>sh > with fish <01709 +dag > spears <06767

+ts@latsal > ?

41 : 08 Lay <07760 +suwm > thine hand <03709 +kaph > upon him ,

remember <02142 +zakar > the battle <04421 +milchamah > , do no

<00408 +>al > more <03254 +yacaph > .

41 : 09 Behold <02005 +hen > , the hope <08431 +towcheleth > of

him is in vain <03576 +kazab > : shall not [ one ] be cast

<02904 +tuwl > down <02904 +tuwl > even <01571 +gam > at the

sight <04758 +mar>eh > of him ?

41 : 10 None <03808 +lo> > [ is so ] fierce <00393 +>akzar >

that dare stir <05782 +<uwr > him up : who <04310 +miy > then is

able to stand <03320 +yatsab > before <06440 +paniym > me ?

41 : 11 . Who <04310 +miy > hath prevented <06923 +qadam > me ,

that I should repay <07999 +shalam > [ him ? whatsoever is ]

under <08478 +tachath > the whole <03605 +kol > heaven <08064

+shamayim > is mine .

41 : 12 I will not conceal <02790 +charash > his parts <00905

+bad > , nor his power <01369 +g@buwrah > , nor his comely

<02433 +chiyn > proportion <06187 +<erek > .

41 : 13 Who <04310 +miy > can discover <01540 +galah > the face

<06440 +paniym > of his garment <03830 +l@buwsh > ? [ or ] who

<04310 +miy > can come <00935 +bow> > [ to him ] with his double

<03718 +kephel > bridle <07448 +recen > ?

41 : 14 Who <04310 +miy > can open <06605 +pathach > the doors

<01817 +deleth > of his face <06440 +paniym > ? his teeth

<08127 +shen > [ are ] terrible <00367 +>eymah > round <05439

+cabiyb > about .

41 : 15 [ His ] scales [ are his ] pride <01346 +ga<avah > ,

shut <05462 +cagar > up together [ as with ] a close <06862

+tsar > seal <02368 +chowtham > .

41 : 16 One <00259 +>echad > is so near <05066 +nagash > to

another <00259 +>echad > , that no <03908 +lachash > air <07307

+ruwach > can come <00935 +bow> > between <00996 +beyn > them .

41 : 17 They are joined <01692 +dabaq > one <00376 +>iysh > to

another <00250 +>Ezrachiy > , they stick <03920 +lakad >

together , that they cannot <03808 +lo> > be sundered <06504

+parad > .

41 : 18 By his neesings <05846 +<atiyshah > a light <00216 +>owr

> doth shine <01984 +halal > , and his eyes <05869 +<ayin > [

are ] like the eyelids <06079 +<aph<aph > of the morning <07837

+shachar > .

41 : 19 Out of his mouth <06310 +peh > go <01980 +halak >

burning <03940 +lappiyd > lamps <03940 +lappiyd > , [ and ]

sparks <03590 +kiydowd > of fire <00784 +>esh > leap <04422

+malat > out

41 : 20 Out of his nostrils <05156 +n@chiyr > goeth <03318

+yatsa> > smoke <06227 +<ashan > , as [ out ] of a seething

<05301 +naphach > pot <01731 +duwd > or caldron <00100 +>agmown

41 : 21 His breath <05315 +nephesh > kindleth <03857 +lahat >

coals <01513 +gechel > , and a flame <03851 +lahab > goeth

<03318 +yatsa> > out of his mouth <06310 +peh > .

41 : 22 In his neck <06677 +tsavva>r > remaineth <03885 +luwn >

strength <05797 +<oz > , and sorrow <01670 +d@>abah > is turned

<01750 +duwts > into joy before <06440 +paniym > him .

41 : 23 The flakes <04651 +mappal > of his flesh <01320 +basar >

are joined <01692 +dabaq > together : they are firm <03332

+yatsaq > in themselves ; they cannot <01077 +bal > be moved

<04131 +mowt > .

41 : 24 His heart <03820 +leb > is as firm <03332 +yatsaq > as a

stone <68> ; yea , as hard <03332 +yatsaq > as a piece <06400

+pelach > of the nether <08482 +tachtiy > [ millstone ] .

41 : 25 When he raiseth <07613 +s@>eth > up himself , the mighty

<00410 +>el > are afraid <01481 +guwr > : by reason of breakings

<07667 +sheber > they purify <02398 +chata> > themselves .

41 : 26 The sword <02719 +chereb > of him that layeth <05381

+nasag > at him cannot <01097 +b@liy > hold <06965 +quwm > : the

spear <02595 +chaniyth > , the dart <04551 +macca< > , nor the

habergeon <08302 +shiryown > .

41 : 27 He esteemeth <02803 +chashab > iron <01270 +barzel > as

straw <08401 +teben > , [ and ] brass <05154 +n@chuwshah > as

rotten <07539 +riqqabown > wood <06086 +<ets > .

41 : 28 The arrow cannot <03808 +lo> > make him flee <01272

+barach > : slingstonesare turned <02015 +haphak > with him into

stubble <07179 +qash > .

41 : 29 Darts <08455 +towthach > are counted <02803 +chashab >

as stubble <07179 +qash > : he laugheth <07832 +sachaq > at the

shaking <07494 +ra<ash > of a spear <03591 +kiydown > .

41 : 30 Sharp <02303 +chadduwd > stones <02789 +cheres > [ are ]

under <08478 +tachath > him : he spreadeth <07502 +raphad >

sharp <02742 +charuwts > pointed <02742 +charuwts > things upon

the mire <02916 +tiyt > .

41 : 31 He maketh the deep <04688 +m@tsowlah > to boil <07570

+rathach > like a pot <05518 +ciyr > : he maketh <07760 +suwm >

the sea <03220 +yam > like a pot of ointment <04841 +merqachah >

41 : 32 He maketh a path <05410 +nathiyb > to shine <00215 +>owr

> after <00310 +>achar > him ; [ one ] would think <02803

+chashab > the deep <08415 +t@howm > [ to be ] hoary <07872

+seybah > .

41 : 33 Upon earth <06083 +<aphar > there is not his like <04915

+moshel > , who is made <06213 +<asah > without <01097 +b@liy >

fear <02844 +chath > .

41 : 34 He beholdeth <07200 +ra>ah > all <03605 +kol > high

<01364 +gaboahh > [ things ] : he [ is ] a king <04428 +melek >

over <05921 +<al > all <03605 +kol > the children <01121 +ben >

of pride <07830 +shachats > .

42 : 01 . Then Job <00347 +>Iyowb > answered <06030 +<anah >

the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , and said <00559 +>amar > ,

42 : 02 I know <03045 +yada< > that thou canst <03201 +yakol >

do every <03605 +kol > [ thing ] , and [ that ] no <03908

+lachash > thought <04209 +m@zimmah > can be withholden <01219

+batsar > from thee .

42 : 03 Who <04310 +miy > [ is ] he that hideth <05956 +<alam >

counsel <06098 +<etsah > without <01097 +b@liy > knowledge

<01847 +da<ath > ? therefore <03651 +ken > have I uttered

<05046 +nagad > that I understood <00995 +biyn > not ; things

too wonderful <06381 +pala> > for me , which I knew <03045

+yada< > not .

42 : 04 Hear <08085 +shama< > , I beseech <04994 +na> > thee ,

and I will speak <01696 +dabar > : I will demand <07592 +sha>al

42 : 05 I have heard <08085 +shama< > of thee by the hearing

<08088 +shema< > of the ear <00241 +>ozen > : but now <06258

+<attah > mine eye <05869 +<ayin > seeth <07200 +ra>ah > thee .

42 : 06 Wherefore I abhor <03988 +ma>ac > [ myself ] , and

repent <05162 +nacham > in dust <06083 +<aphar > and ashes

<00665 +>epher > .

42 : 07 . And it was [ so ] , that after <00310 +>achar > the

LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > had spoken <01696 +dabar > these <00428

+>el - leh > words <01697 +dabar > unto Job <00347 +>Iyowb > ,

the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > said <00559 +>amar > to Eliphaz

<00464 +>Eliyphaz > the Temanite <08489 +Teymaniy > , My wrath

<00639 +>aph > is kindled <02734 +charah > against thee , and

against thy two <08147 +sh@nayim > friends <07453 +rea< > : for

ye have not spoken <01696 +dabar > of me [ the thing that is ]

right <03559 +kuwn > , as my servant <05650 +<ebed > Job <00347

+>Iyowb > [ hath ] .

42 : 08 Therefore take <03947 +laqach > unto you now <06258

+<attah > seven <07651 +sheba< > bullocks <06499 +par > and

seven <07651 +sheba< > rams <00352 +>ayil > , and go <03212

+yalak > to my servant <05650 +<ebed > Job <00347 +>Iyowb > ,

and offer <05927 +<alah > up for yourselves a burnt <05930

+<olah > offering ; and my servant <05650 +<ebed > Job <00347

+>Iyowb > shall pray <06419 +palal > for you : for him will I

accept <05375 +nasa> > : lest <01115 +biltiy > I deal <06213

+<asah > with you [ after <00310 +>achar > your ] folly <05039

+n@balah > , in that ye have not spoken <01696 +dabar > of me [

the thing which is ] right <03559 +kuwn > , like my servant

<05650 +<ebed > Job <00347 +>Iyowb > .

42 : 09 So Eliphaz <00464 +>Eliyphaz > the Temanite <08489

+Teymaniy > and Bildad <01085 +Bildad > the Shuhite <07747

+Shuchiy > [ and ] Zophar <06691 +Tsowphar > the Naamathite

<05284 +Na<amathiy > went <03212 +yalak > , and did <06213

+<asah > according as the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > commanded

<01696 +dabar > them : the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > also accepted

<05375 +nasa> > Job <00347 +>Iyowb > .

42 : 10 . And the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > turned <07725 +shuwb >

the captivity <07622 +sh@buwth > of Job <00347 +>Iyowb > , when

he prayed <06419 +palal > for his friends <07453 +rea< > : also

the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > gave <03254 +yacaph > Job <00347

+>Iyowb > twice <04932 +mishneh > as much <00634 +>Ecar -

Chaddown > as he had before .

42 : 11 Then came <00935 +bow> > there unto him all <03605 +kol

sisters <00269 +>achowth > , and all <03605 +kol > they that had

been of his acquaintance <03045 +yada< > before <06440 +paniym >

, and did eat <00398 +>akal > bread <03899 +lechem > with him in

his house <01004 +bayith > : and they bemoaned <05110 +nuwd >

him , and comforted <05162 +nacham > him over <05921 +<al > all

<03605 +kol > the evil <07451 +ra< > that the LORD <03068

+Y@hovah > had brought <00935 +bow> > upon him : every man

<00376 +>iysh > also gave <05414 +nathan > him a piece of money

<07192 +q@siytah > , and every <00376 +>iysh > one <00376 +>iysh

42 : 12 So the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > blessed <01288 +barak >

the latter <00319 +>achariyth > end of Job <00347 +>Iyowb > more

than his beginning <07225 +re>shiyth > : for he had <01961

+tsemed > of oxen <01241 +baqar > , and a thousand <00505

42 : 13 He had <01961 +hayah > also seven <07658 +shib<anah >

sons <01121 +ben > and three <07969 +shalowsh > daughters <01121

+ben > .

42 : 14 And he called <07121 +qara> > the name <08034 +shem > of

the first <07223 +ri>shown > , Jemima <03224 +Y@miymah > ; and

the name <08034 +shem > of the second <08145 +sheniy > , Kezia

<07103 +Q@tsiy<ah > ; and the name <08034 +shem > of the third

<07992 +sh@liyshiy > , Kerenhappuch <07163 +qeren hap - puwk > .

42 : 15 And in all <03605 +kol > the land <00776 +>erets > were

no <03908 +lachash > women <00802 +>ishshah > found <04672

<05414 +nathan > them inheritance <05159 +nachalah > among

<08432 +tavek > their brethren <00251 +>ach > .

42 : 16 After <00310 +>achar > this <02063 +zo>th > lived <02421

+chayah > Job <00347 +>Iyowb > an hundred <03967 +me>ah > and
