Then JobH347 answeredH6030 and saidH559,
I knowH3045 it is so of a truthH551: but how should manH582 be justH6663 with GodH410? {with God: or, before God?}
If he willH2654 contendH7378 with him, he cannot answerH6030 him oneH259 of a thousandH505.
He is wiseH2450 in heartH3824, and mightyH533 in strengthH3581: who hath hardenedH7185 himself against him, and hath prosperedH7999?
Which removethH6275 the mountainsH2022, and they knowH3045 not: which overturnethH2015 them in his angerH639.
Which shakethH7264 the earthH776 out of her placeH4725, and the pillarsH5982 thereof trembleH6426.
Which commandethH559 the sunH2775, and it risethH2224 not; and sealeth upH2856 the starsH3556.
Which alone spreadeth outH5186 the heavensH8064, and treadethH1869 upon the wavesH1116 of the seaH3220. {waves: Heb. heights}
Which makethH6213 ArcturusH5906, OrionH3685, and PleiadesH3598, and the chambersH2315 of the southH8486. {Arcturus…: Heb. Ash, Cesil, and Cimah}
Which doethH6213 great thingsH1419 pastH369 finding outH2714; yea, and wondersH6381 without numberH4557.
Lo, he goethH5674 by me, and I seeH7200 him not: he passeth onH2498 also, but I perceiveH995 him not.
Behold, he taketh awayH2862, who can hinderH7725 him? who will sayH559 unto him, What doestH6213 thou? {hinder…: Heb. turn him away?}
If GodH433 will not withdrawH7725 his angerH639, the proudH7293 helpersH5826 do stoopH7817 under him. {proud…: Heb. helpers of pride, or, strength}
How much less shall I answerH6030 him, and choose outH977 my wordsH1697 to reason with him?
Whom, though I were righteousH6663, yet would I not answerH6030, but I would make supplicationH2603 to my judgeH8199.
If I had calledH7121, and he had answeredH6030 me; yet would I not believeH539 that he had hearkenedH238 unto my voiceH6963.
For he breakethH7779 me with a tempestH8183, and multipliethH7235 my woundsH6482 without causeH2600.
He will not sufferH5414 me to takeH7725 my breathH7307, but fillethH7646 me with bitternessH4472.
If I speak of strengthH3581, lo, he is strongH533: and if of judgmentH4941, who shall setH3259 me a time to plead?
If I justifyH6663 myself, mine own mouthH6310 shall condemnH7561 me: if I say, I am perfectH8535, it shall also prove me perverseH6140.
Though I were perfectH8535, yet would I not knowH3045 my soulH5315: I would despiseH3988 my lifeH2416.
This is oneH259 thing, therefore I saidH559 it, He destroyethH3615 the perfectH8535 and the wickedH7563.
If the scourgeH7752 slayH4191 suddenlyH6597, he will laughH3932 at the trialH4531 of the innocentH5355.
The earthH776 is givenH5414 into the handH3027 of the wickedH7563: he coverethH3680 the facesH6440 of the judgesH8199 thereof; if not, whereH645, and who is he?
Now my daysH3117 are swifterH7043 than a postH7323: they flee awayH1272, they seeH7200 no goodH2896.
They are passed awayH2498 asH5973 the swiftH16 shipsH591: as the eagleH5404 that hastethH2907 to the preyH400. {swift…: or, ships of Ebeh: Heb. ships of desire}
If I sayH559, I will forgetH7911 my complaintH7879, I will leave offH5800 my heavinessH6440, and comfortH1082 myself:
I am afraidH3025 of all my sorrowsH6094, I knowH3045 that thou wilt not hold me innocentH5352.
If I be wickedH7561, why then labourH3021 I in vainH1892?
If I washH7364 myself withH7950 snow waterH4325+H1119, and make my handsH3709 neverH1252+H1253 so cleanH2141;
YetH227 shalt thou plungeH2881 me in the ditchH7845, and mine own clothesH8008 shall abhorH8581 me. {abhor…: or, make me to be abhorred}
For he is not a manH376, as I am, that I should answerH6030 him, and we should comeH935 togetherH3162 in judgmentH4941.
Neither isH3426 there any daysmanH3198 betwixt us, that might layH7896 his handH3027 upon us bothH8147. {any…: Heb. one that should argue} {daysman: or, umpire}
Let him takeH5493 his rodH7626 awayH5493 from me, and let not his fearH367 terrifyH1204 me:
Then would I speakH1696, and not fearH3372 him; but it is not so with me. {it is…: Heb. I am not so with myself}

He breakethH6555 me with breachH6556 uponH6440 breachH6556, he runnethH7323 upon me like a giantH1368.
And there cameH935 a messengerH4397 unto JobH347, and saidH559, The oxenH1241 were plowingH2790, and the assesH860 feedingH7462 besideH3027 them:
And the SabeansH7614 fellH5307 upon them, and took them awayH3947; yea, they have slainH5221 the servantsH5288 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719; and I only am escapedH4422 alone to tellH5046 thee.
While he was yet speakingH1696, there cameH935 also another, and saidH559, The fireH784 of GodH430 is fallenH5307 from heavenH8064, and hath burned upH1197 the sheepH6629, and the servantsH5288, and consumedH398 them; and I only am escapedH4422 alone to tellH5046 thee. {The fire…: or, A great fire}
While he was yet speakingH1696, there cameH935 also another, and saidH559, The ChaldeansH3778 made outH7760 threeH7969 bandsH7218, and fellH6584 upon the camelsH1581, and have carried them awayH3947, yea, and slainH5221 the servantsH5288 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719; and I only am escapedH4422 alone to tellH5046 thee. {fell: Heb. rushed}
While he was yet speakingH1696, there cameH935 also another, and saidH559, Thy sonsH1121 and thy daughtersH1323 were eatingH398 and drinkingH8354 wineH3196 in their eldestH1060 brother'sH251 houseH1004:
And, behold, there cameH935 a greatH1419 windH7307 fromH5676 the wildernessH4057, and smoteH5060 the fourH702 cornersH6438 of the houseH1004, and it fellH5307 upon the young menH5288, and they are deadH4191; and I only am escapedH4422 alone to tellH5046 thee. {from…: Heb. from aside, etc}
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto SatanH7854, Hast thouH7760 consideredH3820 my servantH5650 JobH347, that there is none like him in the earthH776, a perfectH8535 and an uprightH3477 manH376, one that fearethH3373 GodH430, and eschewethH5493 evilH7451? and still he holdeth fastH2388 his integrityH8538, although thou movedstH5496 me against him, to destroyH1104 him without causeH2600. {to destroy…: Heb. to swallow him up}
The voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 breakethH7665 the cedarsH730; yea, the LORDH3068 breakethH7665 the cedarsH730 of LebanonH3844.
So wentH3318 SatanH7854 forthH3318 from the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068, and smoteH5221 JobH347 with soreH7451 boilsH7822 from the soleH3709 of his footH7272 unto his crownH6936.
DeepH8415 callethH7121 unto deepH8415 at the noiseH6963 of thy waterspoutsH6794: all thy wavesH4867 and thy billowsH1530 are goneH5674 over me.
So they sat downH3427 with him upon the groundH776 sevenH7651 daysH3117 and sevenH7651 nightsH3915, and none spakeH1696 a wordH1697 unto him: for they sawH7200 that his griefH3511 was veryH3966 greatH1431.
Should I lieH3576 against my rightH4941? my woundH2671 is incurableH605 without transgressionH6588. {my wound: Heb. mine arrow}
Yea, let none that waitH6960 on thee be ashamedH954: let them be ashamedH954 which transgressH898 without causeH7387.
JudgmentH4941 also will I layH7760 to the lineH6957, and righteousnessH6666 to the plummetH4949: and the hailH1259 shall sweep awayH3261 the refugeH4268 of liesH3577, and the watersH4325 shall overflowH7857 the hiding placeH5643.
JesusG2424 answeredG611, NeitherG3777 hathG264 this manG3778 sinnedG264, norG3777 hisG846 parentsG1118: butG235 thatG2443 the worksG2041 of GodG2316 should be made manifestG5319 inG1722 himG846.
Behold, a whirlwindH5591 of the LORDH3068 is gone forthH3318 in furyH2534, even a grievousH2342 whirlwindH5591: it shall fall grievouslyH2342 upon the headH7218 of the wickedH7563.
ButG235 this cometh to pass, thatG2443 the wordG3056 might be fulfilledG4137 that is writtenG1125 inG1722 theirG846 lawG3551+G3754, They hatedG3404 meG3165 without a causeG1432.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; I will even rendH1234 it with a stormyH5591 windH7307 in my furyH2534; and there shall be an overflowingH7857 showerH1653 in mine angerH639, and great hailstonesH417+H68 in my furyH2534 to consumeH3617 it.
