1 | Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said, | H · G · S |
2 | Can a man be profitable unto God, as he that is wise may be profitable unto himself? | H · G · S |
3 | Is it any pleasure to the Almighty, that thou art righteous? or is it gain to him that thou makest thy ways perfect? | H · G · S |
4 | Will he reprove thee for fear of thee? will he enter with thee into judgment? | H · G · S |
5 | Is not thy wickedness great? and thine iniquities infinite? | H · G · S thy wickedness |
6 | For thou hast taken a pledge from thy brother for nought, and stripped the naked of their clothing. | H · G · S |
7 | Thou hast not given water to the weary to drink, and thou hast withholden bread from the hungry. | H · G · S |
8 | But as for the mighty man, he had the earth; and the honourable man dwelt in it. | H · G · S |
9 | Thou hast sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken. | H · G · S |
10 | Therefore snares are round about thee, and sudden fear troubleth thee; | H · G · S |
11 | Or darkness, that thou canst not see; and abundance of waters cover thee. | H · G · S |
12 | Is not God in the height of heaven? and behold the height of the stars, how high they are! | H · G · S height of the stars |
13 | And thou sayest, How doth God know? can he judge through the dark cloud? | H · G · S |
14 | Thick clouds are a covering to him, that he seeth not; and he walketh in the circuit of heaven. | H · G · S |
15 | Hast thou marked the old way which wicked men have trodden? | H · G · S |
16 | Which were cut down out of time, whose foundation was overflown with a flood: | H · G · S overflown with a flood |
17 | Which said unto God, Depart from us: and what can the Almighty do for them? | H · G · S |
18 | Yet he filled their houses with good things: but the counsel of the wicked is far from me. | H · G · S |
19 | The righteous see it, and are glad: and the innocent laugh them to scorn. | H · G · S |
20 | Whereas our substance is not cut down, but the remnant of them the fire consumeth. | H · G · S |
21 | Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee. | H · G · S |
22 | Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart. | H · G · S lay up his words |
23 | If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles. | H · G · S |
24 | Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks. | H · G · S |
25 | Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defence, and thou shalt have plenty of silver. | H · G · S |
26 | For then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face unto God. | H · G · S |
27 | Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee, and thou shalt pay thy vows. | H · G · S |
28 | Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways. | H · G · S |
29 | When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person. | H · G · S |
30 |
He shall deliver the island of
the innocent: and it is delivered by the pureness of thine hands.
|
H · G · S island of the innocent |
