But JobH347 answeredH6030 and saidH559,
HearH8085 diligentlyH8085 my speechH4405, and let this be your consolationsH8575.
SufferH5375 me that I may speakH1696; and afterH310 that I have spokenH1696, mock onH3932.
As for me, is my complaintH7879 to manH120? and if it were so, why should not my spiritH7307 be troubledH7114? {troubled: Heb. shortened?}
MarkH6437 me, and be astonishedH8074, and layH7760 your handH3027 upon your mouthH6310. {Mark…: Heb. Look unto me}
Even when I rememberH2142 I am afraidH926, and tremblingH6427 taketh hold onH270 my fleshH1320.
Wherefore do the wickedH7563 liveH2421, become oldH6275, yea, are mightyH1396 in powerH2428?
Their seedH2233 is establishedH3559 in their sightH6440 with them, and their offspringH6631 before their eyesH5869.
Their housesH1004 are safeH7965 from fearH6343, neither is the rodH7626 of GodH433 upon them. {safe…: Heb. peace from}
Their bullH7794 genderethH5674, and failethH1602 not; their cowH6510 calvethH6403, and casteth not her calfH7921.
They send forthH7971 their little onesH5759 like a flockH6629, and their childrenH3206 danceH7540.
They takeH5375 the timbrelH8596 and harpH3658, and rejoiceH8055 at the soundH6963 of the organH5748.
They spendH3615+H1086 their daysH3117 in wealthH2896, and in a momentH7281 go downH2865+H5181 to the graveH7585. {in wealth: or, in mirth}
Therefore they sayH559 unto GodH410, DepartH5493 from us; for we desireH2654 not the knowledgeH1847 of thy waysH1870.
What is the AlmightyH7706, that we should serveH5647 him? and what profitH3276 should we have, if we prayH6293 unto him?
Lo, their goodH2898 is not in their handH3027: the counselH6098 of the wickedH7563 is farH7368 from me.
How oft is the candleH5216 of the wickedH7563 put outH1846! and how oft comethH935 their destructionH343 upon them! God distributethH2505 sorrowsH2256 in his angerH639. {candle: or, lamp}
They are as stubbleH8401 beforeH6440 the windH7307, and as chaffH4671 that the stormH5492 carrieth awayH1589. {carrieth: Heb. stealeth}
GodH433 layeth upH6845 his iniquityH205 for his childrenH1121: he rewardethH7999 him, and he shall knowH3045 it. {his iniquity: that is, the punishment of his iniquity}
His eyesH5869 shall seeH7200 his destructionH3589, and he shall drinkH8354 of the wrathH2534 of the AlmightyH7706.
For what pleasureH2656 hath he in his houseH1004 afterH310 him, when the numberH4557 of his monthsH2320 is cut off in the midstH2686?
Shall any teachH3925 GodH410 knowledgeH1847? seeing he judgethH8199 those that are highH7311.
One diethH4191 in his fullH8537 strengthH6106, being wholly at easeH7946 and quietH7961. {his…: Heb. his very, or, the strength of, his perfection}
His breastsH5845 are fullH4390 of milkH2461, and his bonesH6106 are moistenedH8248 with marrowH4221. {breasts: or, milk pails}
And another diethH4191 in the bitternessH4751 of his soulH5315, and never eatethH398 with pleasureH2896.
They shall lie downH7901 alikeH3162 in the dustH6083, and the wormsH7415 shall coverH3680 them.
Behold, I knowH3045 your thoughtsH4284, and the devicesH4209 which ye wrongfully imagineH2554 against me.
For ye sayH559, Where is the houseH1004 of the princeH5081? and where are the dwellingH4908 placesH168 of the wickedH7563? {the dwelling…: Heb. the tent of the tabernacles}
Have ye not askedH7592 them that goH5674 by the wayH1870? and do ye not knowH5234 their tokensH226,
That the wickedH7451 is reservedH2820 to the dayH3117 of destructionH343? they shall be brought forthH2986 to the dayH3117 of wrathH5678. {wrath: Heb. wraths}
Who shall declareH5046 his wayH1870 to his faceH6440? and who shall repayH7999 him what he hath doneH6213?
Yet shall he be broughtH2986 to the graveH6913, and shall remainH8245 in the tombH1430. {grave: Heb. graves} {remain…: Heb. watch in the heap}
The clodsH7263 of the valleyH5158 shall be sweetH4985 unto him, and every manH120 shall drawH4900 afterH310 him, as there are innumerableH4557 beforeH6440 him.
How then comfortH5162 ye me in vainH1892, seeing in your answersH8666 there remainethH7604 falsehoodH4604? {falsehood: Heb. transgression?}
