< Job 4 >

1 And he answered Eliphaz the Temanite and he said.
Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered, and sayde,
2 ¿ Did someone attempt a word to you will you be impatient? and to restrain words who? is he able.
If we assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieued? but who can withholde himselfe from speaking?
3 There! you have instructed many [people] and hands slack you strengthened.
Behold, thou hast taught many, and hast strengthened the wearie hands.
4 [the] stumbling They raised! words your and knees bending you strengthened.
Thy wordes haue confirmed him that was falling, and thou hast strengthened the weake knees.
5 For now - it comes to you and you have become impatient it reaches to you and you have become dismayed.
But now it is come vpon thee, and thou art grieued: it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled.
6 ¿ Not [is] fear your confidence your hope your and [the] integrity of ways your.
Is not this thy feare, thy confidence, thy pacience, and the vprightnesse of thy wayes?
7 Remember please who? that innocent did he perish and where? upright [people] were they destroyed.
Remember, I pray thee: who euer perished, being an innocent? or where were the vpright destroyed?
8 Just as I have seen plowers of wickedness and sowers of mischief they harvest it.
As I haue seene, they that plow iniquitie, and sowe wickednesse, reape the same.
9 From [the] breath of God they perish and from [the] breath of anger his they come to an end.
With the blast of God they perish, and with the breath of his nostrels are they cosumed.
10 [the] roaring of A lion and [the] sound of a lion and [the] teeth of young lions they are broken out.
The roaring of the Lion, and the voyce of the Lionesse, and the teeth of the Lions whelpes are broken.
11 A lion [is] perishing because not prey and [the] young of a lion they are scattered.
The Lyon perisheth for lacke of pray, and the Lyons whelpes are scattered abroade.
12 And to me a word it was brought secretly and it received ear my a whisper of it.
But a thing was brought to me secretly, and mine eare hath receiued a litle thereof.
13 In disquieting thoughts from visions of [the] night when falls deep sleep on people.
In the thoughtes of ye visions of the night, when sleepe falleth on men,
14 Fear it happened to me and trembling and [the] multitude of bones my it caused to tremble.
Feare came vpon me, and dread which made all my bones to tremble.
15 And a wind over face my it passed over it made bristle [the] hair of flesh my.
And the wind passed before me, and made the heares of my flesh to stande vp.
16 It stood still - and not I recognized appearance its a form [was] to before eyes my a whisper and a voice I heard.
Then stoode one, and I knewe not his face: an image was before mine eyes, and in silence heard I a voyce, saying,
17 ¿ A person from God will he be righteous or? from maker his will he be pure a man.
Shall man be more iust then God? or shall a man be more pure then his maker?
18 There! in servants his not he trusts and against messengers his he charges error.
Beholde, he founde no stedfastnesse in his Seruants, and laid follie vpon his Angels.
19 Also - [those who] dwell of houses of clay which [is] in the dust foundation their people crush them before a moth.
Howe much more in them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, which shalbe destroyed before the moth?
20 From morning to evening they are crushed to pieces because not [one who] sets to perpetuity they perish.
They be destroyed from the morning vnto the euening: they perish for euer, without regarde.
21 ¿ Not has it been pulled up tent cord their in them will they die? and not with wisdom.
Doeth not their dignitie goe away with them? do they not die, and that without wisdom?
