Then EliphazH464 the TemaniteH8489 answeredH6030 and saidH559,
Can a manH1397 be profitableH5532 unto GodH410, asH3588 he that is wiseH7919 may be profitableH5532 unto himself? {as he…: or, if he may be profitable, doth his good success depend thereon?}
Is it any pleasureH2656 to the AlmightyH7706, that thou art righteousH6663? or is it gainH1215 to him, that thou makest thy waysH1870 perfectH8552?
Will he reproveH3198 thee for fearH3374 of thee? will he enterH935 with thee into judgmentH4941?
Is not thy wickednessH7451 greatH7227? and thine iniquitiesH5771 infiniteH7093?
For thou hast taken a pledgeH2254 from thy brotherH251 for noughtH2600, and strippedH6584 the nakedH6174 of their clothingH899. {the naked…: Heb. the clothes of the naked}
Thou hast not given waterH4325 to the wearyH5889 to drinkH8248, and thou hast withholdenH4513 breadH3899 from the hungryH7457.
But as for the mightyH2220 manH376, he had the earthH776; and the honourable manH5375+H6440 dweltH3427 in it. {mighty…: Heb. man of arm} {honourable…: Heb. eminent, or, accepted for countenance}
Thou hast sentH7971 widowsH490 away emptyH7387, and the armsH2220 of the fatherlessH3490 have been brokenH1792.
Therefore snaresH6341 are round aboutH5439 thee, and suddenH6597 fearH6343 troublethH926 thee;
Or darknessH2822, that thou canst not seeH7200; and abundanceH8229 of watersH4325 coverH3680 thee.
Is not GodH433 in the heightH1363 of heavenH8064? and beholdH7200 the heightH7218 of the starsH3556, how highH7311 they are! {height of the stars: Heb. head of the stars}
And thou sayestH559, How doth GodH410 knowH3045? can he judgeH8199 through the dark cloudH6205? {How: or, What}
Thick cloudsH5645 are a coveringH5643 to him, that he seethH7200 not; and he walkethH1980 in the circuitH2329 of heavenH8064.
Hast thou markedH8104 the oldH5769 wayH734 which wickedH205 menH4962 have troddenH1869?
Which were cut downH7059 out of timeH6256, whose foundationH3247 was overflownH3332 with a floodH5104: {whose…: Heb. a flood was poured upon their foundation}
Which saidH559 unto GodH410, DepartH5493 from us: and what can the AlmightyH7706 doH6466 for them? {for: or, to}
Yet he filledH4390 their housesH1004 with goodH2896 things: but the counselH6098 of the wickedH7563 is farH7368 from me.
The righteousH6662 seeH7200 it, and are gladH8055: and the innocentH5355 laugh them to scornH3932.
WhereasH518 our substanceH7009 is not cut downH3582, but the remnantH3499 of them the fireH784 consumethH398. {substance: or, estate} {the remnant…: or, their excellency}
AcquaintH5532 now thyself with him, and be at peaceH7999: thereby goodH2896 shall comeH935 unto thee. {him: that is, God}
ReceiveH3947, I pray thee, the lawH8451 from his mouthH6310, and lay upH7760 his wordsH561 in thine heartH3824.
If thou returnH7725 to the AlmightyH7706, thou shalt be built upH1129, thou shalt put awayH7368 iniquityH5766 farH7368 from thy tabernaclesH168.
Then shalt thou lay upH7896 goldH1220 asH5921 dustH6083, and the gold of OphirH211 as the stonesH6697 of the brooksH5158. {as dust: or, on the dust}
Yea, the AlmightyH7706 shall be thy defenceH1220, and thou shalt have plentyH8443 of silverH3701. {defence: or, gold} {plenty…: Heb. silver of strength}
For then shalt thou have thy delightH6026 in the AlmightyH7706, and shalt lift upH5375 thy faceH6440 unto GodH433.
Thou shalt make thy prayerH6279 unto him, and he shall hearH8085 thee, and thou shalt payH7999 thy vowsH5088.
Thou shalt also decreeH1504 a thingH562, and it shall be establishedH6965 unto thee: and the lightH216 shall shineH5050 upon thy waysH1870.
When men are cast downH8213, then thou shalt sayH559, There is lifting upH1466; and he shall saveH3467 the humbleH7807 personH5869. {the humble…: Heb. him that hath low eyes}
He shall deliverH4422 the islandH336 of the innocentH5355: and it is deliveredH4422 by the purenessH1252 of thine handsH3709. {He shall…: or, The innocent shall deliver the island}

Therefore takeH3947 unto you now sevenH7651 bullocksH6499 and sevenH7651 ramsH352, and goH3212 to my servantH5650 JobH347, and offer upH5927 for yourselves a burnt offeringH5930; and my servantH5650 JobH347 shall prayH6419 for you: for himH6440 will I acceptH5375: lest I dealH6213 with you after your follyH5039, in that ye have not spokenH1696 of me the thing which is rightH3559, like my servantH5650 JobH347. {him: Heb. his face, or, person}

And the LORDH3068 saidH559, If I findH4672 in SodomH5467 fiftyH2572 righteousH6662 withinH8432 the cityH5892, then I will spareH5375 all the placeH4725 for their sakes.
And AbrahamH85 answeredH6030 and saidH559, Behold now, I have taken upon meH2974 to speakH1696 unto the LordH136, whichH595 am but dustH6083 and ashesH665:
Peradventure there shall lackH2637 fiveH2568 of the fiftyH2572 righteousH6662: wilt thou destroyH7843 all the cityH5892 for lack of fiveH2568? And he saidH559, If I findH4672 there fortyH705 and fiveH2568, I will not destroyH7843 it.
And he spakeH1696 unto him yet againH3254, and saidH559, Peradventure there shall be fortyH705 foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will not doH6213 it for forty'sH705 sake.
And he saidH559 unto him, OhH4994 let not the LordH136 be angryH2734, and I will speakH1696: Peradventure there shall thirtyH7970 be foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will not doH6213 it, if I findH4672 thirtyH7970 there.
And he saidH559, Behold now, I have taken upon meH2974 to speakH1696 unto the LordH136: Peradventure there shall be twentyH6242 foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will not destroyH7843 it for twenty'sH6242 sake.
And he saidH559, Oh let not the LordH136 be angryH2734, and I will speakH1696 yetH389 but this onceH6471: Peradventure tenH6235 shall be foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will not destroyH7843 it for ten'sH6235 sake.
And now, I pray you, beseechH2470+H6440 GodH410 that he will be graciousH2603 unto us: this hath been by your meansH3027: will he regardH5375 your personsH6440? saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635. {God: Heb. the face of God} {by…: Heb. from your hand}
And they that shall be of thee shall buildH1129 the oldH5769 waste placesH2723: thou shalt raise upH6965 the foundationsH4146 of manyH1755 generationsH1755; and thou shalt be calledH7121, The repairerH1443 of the breachH6556, The restorerH7725 of pathsH5410 to dwell inH3427.
ThenG5119 cameG4334 the disciplesG3101 to JesusG2424 apartG2596+G2398, and saidG2036, WhyG1302 couldG1410 notG3756 weG2249 castG1544 himG846 outG1544?
Run ye to and froH7751 through the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389, and seeH7200 now, and knowH3045, and seekH1245 in the broad placesH7339 thereof, if ye can findH4672 a manH376, if there beH3426 any that executethH6213 judgmentH4941, that seekethH1245 the truthH530; and I will pardonH5545 it.
AndG1161 JesusG2424 saidG2036 unto themG846, BecauseG1223 of yourG5216 unbeliefG570: forG1063 verilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, IfG1437 ye haveG2192 faithG4102 asG5613 a grainG2848 of mustard seedG4615, ye shall sayG2046 unto thisG5129 mountainG3735, RemoveG3327 henceG1782 to yonder placeG1563; andG2532 it shall removeG3327; andG2532 nothingG3762 shall be impossibleG101 unto youG5213.
SayingG3004, FearG5399 notG3361, PaulG3972; thouG4571 mustG1163 be brought beforeG3936 CaesarG2541: andG2532, loG2400, GodG2316 hath givenG5483 theeG4671 allG3956 them that sailG4126 withG3326 theeG4675.
AndG1161 the evilG4190 spiritG4151 answeredG611 and saidG2036, JesusG2424 I knowG1097, andG2532 PaulG3972 I knowG1987; butG1161 whoG5101 areG2075 yeG5210?
AndG2532 the manG444 inG1722 whomG3739 the evilG4190 spiritG4151 wasG2258 leapedG2177 onG1909 themG846, andG2532 overcameG2634 themG846, and prevailedG2480 againstG2596 themG846, soG5620 that they fledG1628 out ofG1537 thatG1565 houseG3624 nakedG1131 andG2532 woundedG5135.
