Then answeredH6030 EliphazH464 the TemaniteH8489, and saidH559,
Should a wise manH2450 utterH6030 vainH7307 knowledgeH1847, and fillH4390 his bellyH990 with the east windH6921? {vain…: Heb. knowledge of wind}
Should he reasonH3198 with unprofitableH5532 talkH1697? or with speechesH4405 wherewith he can do no goodH3276?
Yea, thou castest offH6565 fearH3374, and restrainestH1639 prayerH7881 beforeH6440 GodH410. {castest…: Heb. makest void} {prayer: or, speech}
For thy mouthH6310 utterethH502 thine iniquityH5771, and thou choosestH977 the tongueH3956 of the craftyH6175. {uttereth: Heb. teacheth}
Thine own mouthH6310 condemnethH7561 thee, and not I: yea, thine own lipsH8193 testifyH6030 against thee.
Art thou the firstH7223+H7223 manH120 that was bornH3205? or wast thou madeH2342 beforeH6440 the hillsH1389?
Hast thou heardH8085 the secretH5475 of GodH433? and dost thou restrainH1639 wisdomH2451 to thyself?
What knowestH3045 thou, that we knowH3045 not? what understandestH995 thou, which is not in us?
With us are both the grayheadedH7867 and very agedH3453 men, muchH3524 elderH3117 than thy fatherH1.
Are the consolationsH8575 of GodH410 smallH4592 with thee? is there any secretH328 thingH1697 with thee?
Why doth thine heartH3820 carry thee awayH3947? and what do thy eyesH5869 wink atH7335,
That thou turnestH7725 thy spiritH7307 against GodH410, and lettest such wordsH4405 go outH3318 of thy mouthH6310?
What is manH582, that he should be cleanH2135? and he which is bornH3205 of a womanH802, that he should be righteousH6663?
Behold, he putteth no trustH539 in his saintsH6918; yea, the heavensH8064 are not cleanH2141 in his sightH5869.
How much more abominableH8581 and filthyH444 is manH376, which drinkethH8354 iniquityH5766+H5766 like waterH4325?
I will shewH2331 thee, hearH8085 me; and that which I have seenH2372 I will declareH5608;
Which wiseH2450 men have toldH5046 from their fathersH1, and have not hidH3582 it:
Unto whom alone the earthH776 was givenH5414, and no strangerH2114 passedH5674 amongH8432 them.
The wickedH7563 man travailethH2342 with pain all his daysH3117, and the numberH4557 of yearsH8141 is hiddenH6845 to the oppressorH6184.
A dreadfulH6343 soundH6963 is in his earsH241: in prosperityH7965 the destroyerH7703 shall comeH935 upon him. {A dreadful…: Heb. A sound of fears}
He believethH539 not that he shall returnH7725 out of darknessH2822, and he is waitedH6822 for of the swordH2719.
He wandereth abroadH5074 for breadH3899, saying, Where is it? he knowethH3045 that the dayH3117 of darknessH2822 is readyH3559 at his handH3027.
TroubleH6862 and anguishH4691 shall make him afraidH1204; they shall prevailH8630 against him, as a kingH4428 readyH6264 to the battleH3593.
For he stretcheth outH5186 his handH3027 against GodH410, and strengthenethH1396 himself against the AlmightyH7706.
He runnethH7323 upon him, even on his neckH6677, upon the thickH5672 bossesH1354 of his bucklersH4043:
Because he coverethH3680 his faceH6440 with his fatnessH2459, and makethH6213 collops of fatH6371 on his flanksH3689.
And he dwellethH7931 in desolateH3582 citiesH5892, and in housesH1004 which no man inhabitethH3427, which are readyH6257 to become heapsH1530.
He shall not be richH6238, neither shall his substanceH2428 continueH6965, neither shall he prolongH5186 the perfectionH4512 thereof upon the earthH776.
He shall not departH5493 out of darknessH2822; the flameH7957 shall dry upH3001 his branchesH3127, and by the breathH7307 of his mouthH6310 shall he go awayH5493.
Let not him that is deceivedH8582 trustH539 in vanityH7723: for vanityH7723 shall be his recompenceH8545.
It shall be accomplishedH4390 beforeH3808 his timeH3117, and his branchH3712 shall not be greenH7488. {accomplished: or, cut off}
He shall shake offH2554 his unripe grapeH1154 as the vineH1612, and shall cast offH7993 his flowerH5328 as the oliveH2132.
For the congregationH5712 of hypocritesH2611 shall be desolateH1565, and fireH784 shall consumeH398 the tabernaclesH168 of briberyH7810.
They conceiveH2029 mischiefH5999, and bring forthH3205 vanityH205, and their bellyH990 preparethH3559 deceitH4820. {vanity: or, iniquity}

For wantH2639 and famineH3720 they were solitaryH1565; fleeingH6207 into the wildernessH6723 in former timeH570 desolateH7722 and wasteH4875. {solitary: or, dark as the night} {in…: Heb. yesternight}
Yea, the lightH216 of the wickedH7563 shall be put outH1846, and the sparkH7632 of his fireH784 shall not shineH5050.
The lightH216 shall be darkH2821 in his tabernacleH168, and his candleH5216 shall be put outH1846 with him. {candle: or, lamp}
WhenH3588 thou tillestH5647 the groundH127, it shall not henceforthH3254 yieldH5414 unto thee her strengthH3581; a fugitiveH5128 and a vagabondH5110 shalt thou be in the earthH776.
His strengthH202 shall be hungerbittenH7457, and destructionH343 shall be readyH3559 at his sideH6763.
Let them wander up and downH5128+H5128 for meatH398, and grudgeH3885 if they be not satisfiedH7646. {for meat: Heb. to eat} {and grudge…: or, if they be not satisfied, then they will stay all night}
He shall be drivenH1920 from lightH216 into darknessH2822, and chasedH5074 out of the worldH8398. {He…: Heb. They shall drive him}
Let his childrenH1121 be continuallyH5128 vagabondsH5128, and begH7592: let them seekH1875 their bread also out of their desolate placesH2723.
But if a manH120 liveH2421 manyH7235 yearsH8141, and rejoiceH8055 in them all; yet let him rememberH2142 the daysH3117 of darknessH2822; for they shall be manyH7235. All that comethH935 is vanityH1892.
We have givenH5414 the handH3027 to the EgyptiansH4714, and to the AssyriansH804, to be satisfiedH7646 with breadH3899.
A dayH3117 of darknessH2822 and of gloominessH653, a dayH3117 of cloudsH6051 and of thick darknessH6205, as the morningH7837 spreadH6566 upon the mountainsH2022: a greatH7227 peopleH5971 and a strongH6099; there hath not beenH1961 everH5769 the like, neither shall be any moreH3254 afterH310 it, even to the yearsH8141 of manyH1755 generationsH1755. {of many…: Heb. of generation and generation}
We gatH935 our breadH3899 with the peril of our livesH5315 becauseH6440 of the swordH2719 of the wildernessH4057.
Shall not the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 be darknessH2822, and not lightH216? even very darkH651, and no brightnessH5051 in it?
They were stonedG3034, they were sawn asunderG4249, were temptedG3985, were slainG599 withG1722 the swordG5408+G3162: they wandered aboutG4022 inG1722 sheepskinsG3374 andG1722 goatskinsG122+G1192; being destituteG5302, afflictedG2346, tormentedG2558;
That dayH3117 is a dayH3117 of wrathH5678, a dayH3117 of troubleH6869 and distressH4691, a dayH3117 of wastenessH7722 and desolationH4875, a dayH3117 of darknessH2822 and gloominessH653, a dayH3117 of cloudsH6051 and thick darknessH6205,
