: Job 1

 : 1 .  There was a man <0376 >iysh > in the land <0776 >erets > 
of Uz <5780 <Uwts > ,  whose name <8034 shem >  [ was ]  Job 
<0347 >Iyowb > ;  and that man <0376 >iysh > was perfect <8535 
tam > and upright <3477 yashar > ,  and one that feared <3373 
yare> > God <0430 >elohiym > ,  and eschewed <5493 cuwr > evil 
<7451 ra< > . 

 : 2 And there were born <3205 yalad > unto him seven <7651 
sheba< > sons <1121 ben > and three <7969 shalowsh > daughters 
<1121 ben > . 

 : 3 His substance <4735 miqneh > also was seven <7651 sheba< > 
thousand <0505 >eleph > sheep <6629 tso>n > ,  and three <7969 
shalowsh > thousand <0505 >eleph > camels <1581 gamal > ,  and 
five <2568 chamesh > hundred <3967 me>ah > yoke <6776 tsemed > 
of oxen <1241 baqar > ,  and five <2568 chamesh > hundred <3967 
me>ah > she asses <0860 >athown > ,  and a very <3966 m@<od > 
great <7227 rab > household <5657 <abuddah > ;  so that this 
<1931 huw> > man <0376 >iysh > was the greatest <1419 gadowl > 
of all <3605 kol > the men <1121 ben > of the east <6924 qedem > 
. 

 : 4 .  And his sons <1121 ben > went <1980 halak > and feasted 
<4960 mishteh >  [ in their ]  houses <1004 bayith > ,  every 
<0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > his day <3117 yowm > ;  and sent 
<7971 shalach > and called <7121 qara> > for their three <7969 
shalowsh > sisters <0269 >achowth > to eat <0398 >akal > and to 
drink <8354 shathah > with them . 

 : 5 And it was so ,  when <3588 kiy > the days <3117 yowm > of  
[ their ]  feasting <4960 mishteh > were gone <5362 naqaph > 
about <5362 naqaph > ,  that Job <0347 >Iyowb > sent <7971 
shalach > and sanctified <6942 qadash > them ,  and rose <7925 
shakam > up early <7925 shakam > in the morning <1242 boqer > ,  
and offered <5927 <alah > burnt <5930 <olah > offerings  [ 
according ]  to the number <4557 micpar > of them all <3605 kol 
> : for Job <0347 >Iyowb > said <0559 >amar > ,  It may <0194 
>uwlay > be that my sons <1121 ben > have sinned <2398 chata> > ,
  and cursed <1288 barak > God <0430 >elohiym > in their hearts 
<3824 lebab > .  Thus <3602 kakah > did <6213 <asah > Job <0347 
>Iyowb > continually . 

 : 6 .  Now there was a day <3117 yowm > when the sons <1121 ben 
> of God <0430>elohiym > came <0935 bow> > to present <3320 
yatsab > themselves before <5921 <al > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,
  and Satan <7854 satan > came <0935 bow> > also <1571 gam > 
among <8432 tavek > them . 

 : 7 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto Satan 
<7854 satan > ,  Whence <0370 >aiyn > comest <0935 bow> > thou ? 
 Then Satan <7854 satan > answered <6030 <anah > the LORD <3068 
Y@hovah > ,  and said <0559 >amar > ,  From going <7751 shuwt > 
to and fro <7751 shuwt > in the earth <0776 >erets > ,  and from 
walking <1980 halak > up and down in it . 

 : 8 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto Satan 
<7854 satan > ,  Hast thou considered my servant <5650 <ebed > 
Job <0347 >Iyowb > ,  that  [ there is ]  none <0369 >ayin > 
like <3644 k@mow > him in the earth <0776 >erets > ,  a perfect 
<8535 tam > and an upright <3477 yashar > man <0376 >iysh > ,  
one that feareth <3373 yare> > God <0430 >elohiym > ,  and 
escheweth <5493 cuwr > evil <7451 ra< > ? 

 : 9 Then Satan <7854 satan > answered <6030 <anah > the LORD 
<3068 Y@hovah > ,  and said <0559 >amar > ,  Doth Job <0347 
>Iyowb > fear <3372 yare> > God <0430 >elohiym > for nought 
<2600 chinnam > ? 

 : 10 Hast not thou made an hedge <7753 suwk > about <1157 b@<ad 
> him ,  and about <1157 b@<ad > his house <1004 bayith > ,  and 
about <1157 b@<ad > all <3605 kol > that he hath on every <5437 
cabab > side <5439 cabiyb > ?  thou hast blessed <1288 barak > 
the work <4639 ma<aseh > of his hands <3027 yad > ,  and his 
substance <4735 miqneh > is increased <6555 parats > in the land 
<0776 >erets > . 

 : 11 But put <7971 shalach > forth <7971 shalach > thine hand 
<3027 yad > now <4994 na> > ,  and touch <5060 naga< > all <3605 
kol > that he hath ,  and he will curse <1288 barak > thee to 
thy face <6440 paniym > . 

 : 12 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto Satan 
<7854 satan > ,  Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  all <3605 kol > that 
he hath  [ is ]  in thy power <3027 yad > ;  only <3535 kibsah > 
upon himself put <7971 shalach > not forth <7971 shalach > thine 
hand <3027 yad > .  So Satan <7854 satan > went <3318 yatsa> > 
forth <3318 yatsa> > from the presence <6440 paniym > of the 
LORD <3068 Y@hovah > . 

 : 13 .  And there was a day <3117 yowm > when his sons <1121 
ben > and his daughters <1121 ben >  [ were ]  eating <0398 
>akal > and drinking <8354 shathah > wine <3196 yayin > in their 
eldest <1060 b@kowr > brother s <0251 >ach > house <1004 bayith 
> : 

 : 14 And there came <0935 bow> > a messenger <4397 mal>ak > 
unto Job <0347 >Iyowb > ,  and said <0559 >amar > ,  The oxen 
<1241 baqar > were plowing <2790 charash > ,  and the asses 
<0860 >athown > feeding <7462 ra<ah > beside them : 

 : 15 And the Sabeans <7614 Sh@ba> > fell <5307 naphal >  [ upon 
them ]  ,  and took <3947 laqach > them away ;  yea ,  they have 
slain <5221 nakah > the servants <5288 na<ar > with the edge 
<6310 peh > of the sword <2719 chereb > ;  and I only <7535 raq 
> am escaped <4422 malat > alone <0905 bad > to tell <5046 nagad 
> thee . 

 : 16 While he  [ was ]  yet speaking <1696 dabar > ,  there 
came <0935 bow> > also another <2088 zeh > ,  and said <0559 
>amar > ,  The fire <0784 >esh > of God <0430 >elohiym > is 
fallen <5307 naphal > from heaven <8064 shamayim > ,  and hath 
burned <1197 ba<ar > up the sheep <6629 tso>n > ,  and the 
servants <5288 na<ar > ,  and consumed <0398 >akal > them ;  and 
I only <7535 raq > am escaped <4422 malat > alone <0905 bad > to 
tell <5046 nagad > thee . 

 : 17 While he  [ was ]  yet speaking <1696 dabar > ,  there 
came <0935 bow> > also another <2088 zeh > ,  and said <0559 
>amar > ,  The Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > made <7760 suwm > out 
three <7969 shalowsh > bands <7218 ro>sh > ,  and fell <6584 
pashat > upon the camels <1581 gamal > ,  and have carried <3947 
laqach > them away ,  yea ,  and slain <5221 nakah > the 
servants <5288 na<ar > with the edge <6310 peh > of the sword 
<2719 chereb > ;  and I only <7535 raq > am escaped <4422 malat 
> alone <0905 bad > to tell <5046 nagad > thee . 

 : 18 While he  [ was ]  yet speaking <1696 dabar > ,  there 
came <0935 bow> > also another <2088 zeh > ,  and said <0559 
>amar > ,  Thy sons <1121 ben > and thy daughters <1121 ben >  [ 
were ]  eating <0398 >akal > and drinking <8354 shathah > wine 
<3196 yayin > in their eldest <1060 b@kowr > brother s <0251 
>ach > house <1004 bayith > : 

 : 19 And ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,  there came <0935 bow> > a 
great <1419 gadowl > wind <7307 ruwach > from the wilderness 
<4057 midbar > ,  and smote <5060 naga< > the four <0702 >arba< 
> corners <6438 pinnah > of the house <1004 bayith > ,  and it 
fell <5307 naphal > upon the young <5288 na<ar > men ,  and they 
are dead <4191 muwth > ;  and I only <7535 raq > am escaped 
<4422 malat > alone <0905 bad > to tell <5046 nagad > thee . 

 : 20 .  Then Job <0347 >Iyowb > arose <6965 quwm > ,  and rent 
<7167 qara< > his mantle <4598 m@<iyl > ,  and shaved <1494 
gazaz > his head <7218 ro>sh > ,  and fell <5307 naphal > down 
upon the ground <0776 >erets > ,  and worshipped <7812 shachah > 
, 

 : 21 And said <0559 >amar > ,  Naked <6174 <arowm > came <3318 
yatsa> > I out of my mother s <0517 >em > womb <0990 beten > ,  
and naked <6174 <arowm > shall I return <7725 shuwb > thither 
<8033 sham > : the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > gave <5414 nathan > ,  
and the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath taken <3947 laqach > away ;  
blessed <1288 barak > be the name <8034 shem > of the LORD <3068 
Y@hovah > . 

 : 22 In all <3605 kol > this <2063 zo>th > Job <0347 >Iyowb > 
sinned <2398 chata> > not ,  nor <3808 lo> > charged <5414 
nathan > God <0430 >elohiym > foolishly <8604 tiphlah > . 

 : Job 2

 : 1 .  Again there was a day <3117 yowm > when the sons <1121 
ben > of God <0430 >elohiym > came <0935 bow> > to present <3320 
yatsab > themselves before <5921 <al > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,
  and Satan <7854 satan > came <0935 bow> > also <1571 gam > 
among <8432 tavek > them to present <3320 yatsab > himself 
before <6440 paniym > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > . 

 : 2 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto Satan 
<7854 satan > ,  From whence comest <0935 bow> > thou ?  And 
Satan <7854 satan > answered <6030 <anah > the LORD <3068 
Y@hovah > ,  and said <0559 >amar > ,  From going <7751 shuwt > 
to and fro <7751 shuwt > in the earth <0776 >erets > ,  and from 
walking <1980 halak > up and down in it . 

 : 3 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto Satan 
<7854 satan > ,  Hast thou considered my servant <5650 <ebed > 
Job <0347 >Iyowb > ,  that  [ there is ]  none <0369 >ayin > 
like <3644 k@mow > him in the earth <0776 >erets > ,  a perfect 
<8535 tam > and an upright <3477 yashar > man <0376 >iysh > ,  
one that feareth <3373 yare> > God <0430 >elohiym > ,  and 
escheweth <5493 cuwr > evil <7451 ra< > ?  and still <5750 <owd 
> he holdeth <2388 chazaq > fast his integrity <8538 tummah > ,  
although thou movedst <5496 cuwth > me against him ,  to destroy 
<1104 bala< > him without <2600 chinnam > cause <2600 chinnam > .
 

 : 4 And Satan <7854 satan > answered <6030 <anah > the LORD 
<3068 Y@hovah > ,  and said <0559 >amar > ,  Skin <5785 <owr > 
for skin <5785 <owr > ,  yea ,  all <3605 kol > that a man <0376 
>iysh > hath will he give <5414 nathan > for his life <5315 
nephesh > . 

 : 5 But put <7971 shalach > forth <7971 shalach > thine hand 
<3027 yad > now <4994 na> > ,  and touch <5060 naga< > his bone 
<6106 <etsem > and his flesh <1320 basar > ,  and he will curse 
<1288 barak > thee to thy face <6440 paniym > . 

 : 6 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto Satan 
<7854 satan > ,  Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  he  [ is ]  in thine 
hand <3027 yad > ;  but save <8104 shamar > his life <5315 
nephesh > . 

 : 7 .  So went <3318 yatsa> > Satan <7854 satan > forth <3318 
yatsa> > from the presence <6440 paniym > of the LORD <3068 
Y@hovah > ,  and smote <5221 nakah > Job <0347 >Iyowb > with 
sore <7451 ra< > boils <7822 sh@chiyn > from the sole <3709 kaph 
> of his foot <7272 regel > unto his crown <6936 qodqod > . 

 : 8 And he took <3947 laqach > him a potsherd <2789 cheres > to 
scrape <1623 garad > himself withal ;  and he sat <3427 yashab > 
down among <8432 tavek > the ashes <0665 >epher > . 

 : 9 Then said <0559 >amar > his wife <0802 >ishshah > unto him ,
  Dost thou still <5750 <owd > retain <2388 chazaq > thine 
integrity <8538 tummah > ?  curse <1288 barak > God <0430 
>elohiym > ,  and die <4191 muwth > . 

 : 10 But he said <0559 >amar > unto her ,  Thou speakest <1696 
dabar > as one <0259 >echad > of the foolish <5039 n@balah > 
women speaketh <1696 dabar > .  What <1571 gam > ?  shall we 
receive <6901 qabal > good <2896 towb > at the hand <0854 >eth > 
of God <0430 >elohiym > ,  and shall we not receive <6901 qabal 
> evil <7451 ra< > ?  In all <3605 kol > this <2063 zo>th > did 
not Job <0347 >Iyowb > sin <2398 chata> > with his lips <8193 
saphah > . 

 : 11 .  Now when Job s <0347 >Iyowb > three <7969 shalowsh > 
friends <7453 rea< > heard <8085 shama< > of all <3605 kol > 
this <2063 zo>th > evil <7451 ra< > that was come <0935 bow> > 
upon him ,  they came <0935 bow> > every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 
>iysh > from his own place <4725 maqowm > ;  Eliphaz <0464 
>Eliyphaz > the Temanite <8489 Teymaniy > ,  and Bildad <1085 
Bildad > the Shuhite <7747 Shuchiy > ,  and Zophar <6691 
Tsowphar > the Naamathite <5284 Na<amathiy > : for they had made 
an appointment <3259 ya<ad > together <3162 yachad > to come 
<0935 bow> > to mourn <5110 nuwd > with him and to comfort <5162 
nacham > him . 

 : 12 And when they lifted <5375 nasa> > up their eyes <5869 
<ayin > afar <7350 rachowq > off ,  and knew <5234 nakar > him 
not ,  they lifted <5375 nasa> > up their voice <6963 qowl > ,  
and wept <1058 bakah > ;  and they rent <7167 qara< > every 
<0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > his mantle <4598 m@<iyl > ,  and 
sprinkled <2236 zaraq > dust <6083 <aphar > upon their heads 
<7218 ro>sh > toward heaven <8064 shamayim > . 

 : 13 So they sat <3427 yashab > down with him upon the ground 
<0776 >erets > seven <7651 sheba< > days <3117 yowm > and seven 
<7651 sheba< > nights <3915 layil > ,  and none <0369 >ayin > 
spake <1696 dabar > a word <1697 dabar > unto him : for they saw 
<7200 ra>ah > that  [ his ]  grief <3511 k@>eb > was very <3966 
m@<od > great <1431 gadal > . 

 : Job 3

 : 1 .  After <0310 >achar > this <3651 ken > opened <6605 
pathach > Job <0347 >Iyowb > his mouth <6310 peh > ,  and cursed 
<7043 qalal > his day <3117 yowm > . 

 : 2 And Job <0347 >Iyowb > spake <6030 <anah > ,  and said 
<0559 >amar > , 

 : 3 Let the day <3117 yowm > perish <6> wherein I was born 
<3205 yalad > ,  and the night <3915 layil >  [ in which ]  it 
was said <0559 >amar > ,  There is a man <1397 geber > child 
conceived <2030 hareh > . 

 : 4 Let that day <3117 yowm > be darkness <2822 choshek > ;  
let not God <0433 >elowahh > regard <1875 darash > it from above 
<4605 ma<al > ,  neither <0408 >al > let the light <5105 n@harah 
> shine <3313 yapha< > upon it . 

 : 5 Let darkness <2822 choshek > and the shadow <6757 
tsalmaveth > of death <6757 tsalmaveth > stain <1350 ga>al > it ;
  let a cloud <6053 <ananah > dwell <7931 shakan > upon it ;  
let the blackness <3650 kimriyr > of the day <3117 yowm > 
terrify <1204 ba<ath > it . 

 : 6 As  [ for ]  that night <3915 layil > ,  let darkness <0652 
>ophel > seize <3947 laqach > upon it ;  let it not be joined 
<2302 chadah > unto the days <3117 yowm > of the year <8141 
shaneh > ,  let it not come <0935 bow> > into the number <4557 
micpar > of the months <3391 yerach > . 

 : 7 Lo <2009 hinneh > ,  let that night <3915 layil > be 
solitary <1565 galmuwd > ,  let no <0408 >al > joyful <7445 
r@nanah > voice come <0935 bow> > therein . 

 : 8 Let them curse <5344 naqab > it that curse <0779 >arar > 
the day <3117yowm > ,  who are ready <6264 <athiyd > to raise 
<5782 <uwr > up their mourning <3382 Yered > . 

 : 9 Let the stars <3556 kowkab > of the twilight <5399 nesheph 
> thereof be dark <2821 chashak > ;  let it look <6960 qavah > 
for light <0216 >owr > ,  but  [ have ]  none <0369 >ayin > ;  
neither <0408 >al > let it see <7200 ra>ah > the dawning <6079 
<aph<aph > of the day <7837 shachar > : 

 : 10 Because <3588 kiy > it shut <5462 cagar > not up the doors 
<1817 deleth > of my  [ mother s ]  womb <0990 beten > ,  nor 
hid <5641 cathar > sorrow <3999 mabbuwl > from mine eyes <5869 
<ayin > . 

 : 11 .  Why <4100 mah > died <4191 muwth > I not from the womb 
<7358 rechem > ?   [ why ]  did I  [ not ]  give <1478 gava< > 
up the ghost <1478 gava< > when I came <3318 yatsa> > out of the 
belly <0990 beten > ? 

 : 12 Why <4069 madduwa< > did the knees <1290 berek > prevent 
<6923 qadam > me ?  or why <4069 madduwa< > the breasts <7699 
shad > that I should suck <3243 yanaq > ? 

 : 13 For now <6258 <attah > should I have lain <7901 shakab > 
still and been quiet <8252 shaqat > ,  I should have slept <3462 
yashen > : then <0227 >az > had I been at rest <5117 nuwach > , 

 : 14 With kings <4428 melek > and counsellors <3289 ya<ats > of 
the earth <0776 >erets > ,  which built <1129 banah > desolate 
<2723 chorbah > places <2723 chorbah > for themselves ; 

 : 15 Or <0176 >ow > with princes <8269 sar > that had gold 
<2091 zahab > ,  who filled <4390 male> > their houses <1004 
bayith > with silver <3701 keceph > : 

 : 16 Or <0176 >ow > as an hidden <2934 taman > untimely <5309 
nephel > birth<5309 nephel > I had not been <1961 hayah > ;  as 
infants <5768 <owlel >  [ which ]  never <3808 lo> > saw <7200 
ra>ah > light <0216 >owr > . 

 : 17 There <8033 sham > the wicked <7563 rasha< > cease <2308 
chadal >  [ from ]  troubling <7267 rogez > ;  and there <8033 
sham > the weary <3019 yagiya< > be at rest <5117 nuwach > . 

 : 18  [ There ]  the prisoners <0615 >aciyr > rest <7599 sha>an 
> together <3162 yachad > ;  they hear <8085 shama< > not the 
voice <6963 qowl > of the oppressor <5065 nagas > . 

 : 19 The small <6996 qatan > and great <1419 gadowl > are there 
<8033 sham > ;  and the servant <5650 <ebed >  [ is ]  free 
<2670 chophshiy > from his master <0113 >adown > . 

 : 20 .  Wherefore <4100 mah > is light <0216 >owr > given <5414 
nathan > to him that is in misery <6001 <amel > ,  and life 
<2416 chay > unto the bitter <4751 mar >  [ in ]  soul <5315 
nephesh > ; 

 : 21 Which long <2442 chakah > for death <4194 maveth > ,  but 
it  [ cometh ]  not ;  and dig <2658 chaphar > for it more than 
for hid <4301 matmown > treasures <4301 matmown > ; 

 : 22 Which rejoice <8055 samach > exceedingly ,   [ and ]  are 
glad <7797 suws > ,  when <3588 kiy > they can find <4672 matsa> 
> the grave <6913 qeber > ? 

 : 23  [ Why is light given ]  to a man <1397 geber > whose 
<0834 >aher > way <1870 derek > is hid <5641 cathar > ,  and 
whom God <0433 >elowahh > hath hedged <5526 cakak > in ? 

 : 24 For my sighing <0585 >anachah > cometh <0935 bow> > before 
<6440 paniym > I eat <3899 lechem > ,  and my roarings <7581 
sh@agah > are poured <5413 nathak > out like the waters <4325

 : 25 For the thing which I greatly feared <6342 pachad > is 
come <0857 >athah > upon me ,  and that which <0834 >aher > I 
was afraid <3025 yagor > of is come <0935 bow> > unto me .

 : Job 4

 : 1 .  Then Eliphaz <0464 >Eliyphaz > the Temanite <8489 
Teymaniy > answered <6030 <anah > and said <0559 >amar > , 

 : 2  [ If ]  we assay <5254 nacah > to commune <1697 dabar > 
with thee ,  wilt thou be grieved <3811 la>ah > ?  but who <4310 
miy > can <3201 yakol > withhold <6113 <atsar > himself from 
speaking <4405 millah > ? 

 : 3 Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  thou hast instructed <3256 yacar > 
many <7227 rab > ,  and thou hast strengthened <2388 chazaq > 
the weak <7504 rapheh > hands <3027 yad > . 

 : 4 Thy words <4405 millah > have upholden <6965 quwm > him 
that was falling <3782 kashal > ,  and thou hast strengthened 
<0553 >amats > the feeble <3766 kara< > knees <1290 berek > . 

 : 5 But now <6258 <attah > it is come <0935 bow> > upon thee ,  
and thou faintest <3811 la>ah > ;  it toucheth <5060 naga< > 
thee ,  and thou art troubled <0926 bahal > . 

 : 6  [ Is ]  not  [ this ]  thy fear <3374 yir>ah > ,  thy 
confidence <3690 kiclah > ,  thy hope <8615 tiqvah > ,  and the 
uprightness <8537 tom > of thy ways <1870 derek > ? 

 : 7 .  Remember <2142 zakar > ,  I pray <4994 na> > thee ,  who 
<4310 miy >  [ ever ]  perished <6> ,  being innocent <5355 
naqiy > ?  or where <0375 >eyphoh > were the righteous <6662 
tsaddiyq > cut <3582 kachad > off ? 

 : 8 Even as I have seen <7200 ra>ah > ,  they that plow <2790 
charash > iniquity <0205 >aven > ,  and sow <2232 zara< > 
wickedness <5999 <amal > ,  reap <7114 qatsar > the same . 

 : 9 By the blast <5397 n@shamah > of God <0433 >elowahh > they 
perish <6> ,  and by the breath <7307 ruwach > of his nostrils 
<0639 >aph > are they consumed <3615 kalah > . 

 : 10 The roaring <7581 sh@agah > of the lion <0738 >ariy > ,  
and the voice <6963 qowl > of the fierce <7826 shachal > lion 
<7826 shachal > ,  and the teeth <8127 shen > of the young <3715 
k@phiyr > lions <3715 k@phiyr > ,  are broken <5421 natha< > . 

 : 11 The old lion <3918 layish > perisheth <6> for lack <1097 
b@liy > of prey <2964 tereph > ,  and the stout lion s <3833 
labiy> > whelps <1121 ben > are scattered <6504 parad > abroad 
<6504 parad > . 

 : 12 .  Now a thing <1697 dabar > was secretly <1589 ganab > 
brought <1589 ganab > to me ,  and mine ear <0241 >ozen > 
received <3947 laqach > a little <8102 shemets > thereof . 

 : 13 In thoughts <5587 ca<iph > from the visions <2384 
chizzayown > of the night <3915 layil > ,  when deep <8639 
tardemah > sleep <8639 tardemah > falleth <5307 naphal > on 
<5921 <al > men <0582 >enowsh > , 

 : 14 Fear <6343 pachad > came <7122 qara> > upon me ,  and 
trembling <7460> ,  which made all <7230 rob > my bones <6106 
<etsem > to shake <6342 pachad > . 

 : 15 Then a spirit <7307 ruwach > passed <2498 chalaph > before 
<5921 <al > my face <6440 paniym > ;  the hair <8185 sa<arah > 
of my flesh <1320 basar > stood <5568 camar > up : 

 : 16 It stood <5975 <amad > still ,  but I could not discern 
<5234 nakar > the form <4758 mar>eh > thereof : an image <8544 
t@muwnah >  [ was ]  before <5048 neged > mine eyes <5869 <ayin

<8085 shama< > a voice <6963 qowl > ,   [ saying ]  , 

 : 17 Shall mortal <0582 >enowsh > man <0582 >enowsh > be more 
just <6663 tsadaq > than God <0433 >elowahh > ?  shall a man 
<1396 gabar > be more pure <2891 taher > than his maker <6213 
<asah > ? 

 : 18 Behold <2005 hen > ,  he put no <3808 lo> > trust <0539

mal>ak > he charged <7760 suwm > with folly <8417 toholah > : 

 : 19 How <0637 >aph > much <0637 >aph > less  [ in ]  them that 
dwell <7931 shakan > in houses <1004 bayith > of clay <2563 
chomer > ,  whose <0834 >aher > foundation <3247 y@cowd >  [ is 
]  in the dust <6083 <aphar > ,   [ which ]  are crushed <1792 
daka> > before <6440 paniym > the moth <6211 <ash > ? 

 : 20 They are destroyed <3807 kathath > from morning <1242 
boqer > to evening <6153 <ereb > : they perish <6> for ever 
<5331 netsach > without any regarding <7760 suwm >  [ it ]  . 

 : 21 Doth not their excellency <3499 yether >  [ which is ]  in 
them go <5265 naca< > away <5265 naca< > ?  they die <4191 muwth

 : Job 5

 : 1 .  Call <7121 qara> > now <4994 na> > ,  if there be any 
that will answer <6030 <anah > thee ;  and to which <4310 miy > 
of the saints <6918 qadowsh > wilt thou turn <6437 panah > ? 

 : 2 For wrath <3708 ka<ac > killeth <2026 harag > the foolish 
<0191 >eviyl > man ,  and envy <7068 qin>ah > slayeth <4191 
muwth > the silly <6601 pathah > one . 

 : 3 I have seen <7200 ra>ah > the foolish <0191 >eviyl > taking 
root <8327 sharash > : but suddenly <6597 pith>owm > I cursed 
<5344 naqab > his habitation <5116 naveh > . 

 : 4 His children <1121 ben > are far <7350 rachowq > from 
safety <3468 yesha< > ,  and they are crushed <1792 daka> > in 
the gate <8179 sha<ar > ,  neither <0369 >ayin >  [ is there ]  
any to deliver <5337 natsal >  [ them ]  . 

 : 5 Whose <0834 >aher > harvest <7105 qatsiyr > the hungry 
<7456 ra<eb > eateth <0398 >akal > up ,  and taketh <3947 laqach

tsammiym > swalloweth <7602 sha>aph > up their substance <2428 
chayil > . 

 : 6 .  Although <3588 kiy > affliction <0205 >aven > cometh 
<3318 yatsa> > not forth <3318 yatsa> > of the dust <6083 <aphar 
> ,  neither <3808 lo> > doth trouble <5999 <amal > spring <6779 
tsamach > out of the ground <0127 >adamah > ; 

 : 7 Yet <3588 kiy > man <0120 >adam > is born <3205 yalad > 
unto trouble <5999 <amal > ,  as the sparks <7565 resheph > fly 
<5774 <uwph > upward <1361 gabahh > . 

 : 8 I would seek <1875 darash > unto God <0410 >el > ,  and 
unto God <0430 >elohiym > would I commit <7760 suwm > my cause 
<1700 dibrah > : 

 : 9 Which doeth <6213 <asah > great <1419 gadowl > things and 
unsearchable ;  marvellous <6381 pala> > things without number 
<4557 micpar > : 

 : 10 Who giveth <5414 nathan > rain <4306 matar > upon the 
earth <0776 >erets > ,  and sendeth <7971 shalach > waters <4325 
mayim > upon the fields <2351 chuwts > : 

 : 11 To set <7760 suwm > up on high <4791 marowm > those that 
be low <8217 shaphal > ;  that those which mourn <6937 qadar > 
may be exalted <7682 sagab > to safety <3468 yesha< > . 

 : 12 He disappointeth <6565 parar > the devices <4284 
machashabah > of the crafty <6175 <aruwm > ,  so that their 
hands <3027 yad > cannot perform  [ their ]  enterprise <8454 
tuwshiyah > . 

 : 13 He taketh <3920 lakad > the wise <2450 chakam > in their 
own craftiness <6193 <orem > : and the counsel <6098 <etsah > of 
the froward <6617 pathal > is carried <4116 mahar > headlong . 

 : 14 They meet <6298 pagash > with darkness <2822 choshek > in 
the daytime <3119 yowmam > ,  and grope <4959 mashash > in the 
noonday <6672 tsohar > as in the night <3915 layil > . 

 : 15 But he saveth <3467 yasha< > the poor <34> from the sword 
<2719 chereb > ,  from their mouth <6310 peh > ,  and from the 
hand <3027 yad > of the mighty <2389 chazaq > . 

 : 16 So the poor <1800 dal > hath <1961 hayah > hope <8615 
tiqvah > ,  and iniquity <5766 <evel > stoppeth <7092 qaphats > 
her mouth <6310 peh > . 

 : 17 .  Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  happy <0835 >esher >  [ is ]  
the man <0582 >enowsh > whom God <0433 >elowahh > correcteth 
<3198 yakach > : therefore despise <3988 ma>ac > not thou the 
chastening <4148 muwcar > of the Almighty <7706 Shadday > : 

 : 18 For he maketh sore <3510 ka>ab > ,  and bindeth <2280 
chabash > up : he woundeth <4272 machats > ,  and his hands 
<3027 yad > make whole <7495 rapha> > . 

 : 19 He shall deliver <5337 natsal > thee in six <8337 shesh > 
troubles <6869 tsarah > : yea ,  in seven <7651 sheba< > there 
shall no <3808 lo> > evil <7451 ra< > touch <5060 naga< > thee . 

 : 20 In famine <7458 ra<ab > he shall redeem <6299 padah > thee 
from death <4194 maveth > : and in war <4421 milchamah > from 
the power <3027 yad > of the sword <2719 chereb > . 

 : 21 Thou shalt be hid <2244> from the scourge <7752 showt > of 
the tongue <3956 lashown > : neither <3808 lo> > shalt thou be 
afraid <3372 yare> > of destruction <7701 shod > when <3588 kiy

 : 22 At destruction <7701 shod > and famine <3720 kaphan > thou 
shalt laugh <7832 sachaq > : neither <0408 >al > shalt thou be 
afraid <3372 yare> > of the beasts <2416 chay > of the earth 
<0776 >erets > . 

 : 23 For thou shalt be in league <1285 b@riyth > with the 
stones <68> of the field <7704 sadeh > : and the beasts <2416 
chay > of the field <7704 sadeh > shall be at peace <7999 shalam

 : 24 And thou shalt know <3045 yada< > that thy tabernacle 
<0168 >ohel >  [ shall be ]  in peace <7965 shalowm > ;  and 
thou shalt visit <6485 paqad > thy habitation <5116 naveh > ,  
and shalt not sin <2398 chata> > . 

 : 25 Thou shalt know <3045 yada< > also that thy seed <2233 
zera< >  [ shall be ]  great <7227 rab > ,  and thine offspring 
<6631 tse>etsa> > as the grass <6212 <eseb > of the earth <0776

 : 26 Thou shalt come <0935 bow> > to  [ thy ]  grave <6913 
qeber > in a full <3624 kelach > age <3624 kelach > ,  like as a 
shock <1430 gadiysh > of corn cometh <5927 <alah > in in his 
season <6256 <eth > . 

 : 27 Lo <2009 hinneh > this <2063 zo>th > ,  we have searched 
<2713 chaqar > it ,  so <3651 ken > it  [ is ]  ;  hear <8085

 : Job 6

 : 1 .  But Job <0347 >Iyowb > answered <6030 <anah > and said

 : 2 Oh that my grief <3708 ka<ac > were throughly weighed <8254

the balances <3976 mo>zen > together <3162 yachad > ! 

 : 3 For now <6258 <attah > it would be heavier <3513 kabad > 
than the sand <2344 chowl > of the sea <3220 yam > : therefore 
my words <1697 dabar > are swallowed <3886 luwa< > up . 

 : 4 For the arrows <2671 chets > of the Almighty <7706 Shadday

 : 5 Doth the wild <6501 pere> > ass <6501 pere> > bray <5101

ga<ah > the ox <7794 showr > over <5921 <al > his fodder <1098

 : 6 Can that which is unsavoury <8602 taphel > be eaten <0398

<8033 sham >  [ any ]  taste <2940 ta<am > in the white <7388

 : 7 The things  [ that ]  my soul <5315 nephesh > refused <3985

d@vay > meat <3899 lechem > . 

 : 8 .  Oh that I might have <0935 bow> > my request <7596 
sh@>elah > ;  and that God <0433 >elowahh > would grant <5414 
nathan >  [ me ]  the thing that I long <8615 tiqvah > for ! 

 : 9 Even that it would please <2894 tuw> > God <0433 >elowahh > 
to destroy <1792 daka> > me ;  that he would let loose <5425 
nathar > his hand <3027 yad > ,  and cut <1214 batsa< > me off ! 

 : 10 Then should I yet <5750 <owd > have <1961 hayah > comfort 
<5165 nechamah > ;  yea ,  I would harden <5539 calad > myself 
in sorrow <2427 chiyl > : let him not spare <2550 chamal > ;  
for I have not concealed <3582 kachad > the words <0561 >emer > 
of the Holy <6918 qadowsh > One . 

 : 11 What <4100 mah >  [ is ]  my strength <3581 koach > ,  
that I should hope <3176 yachal > ?  and what <4100 mah >  [ is

my life <5315 nephesh > ? 

 : 12  [ Is ]  my strength <3581 koach > the strength <3581 
koach > of stones <68> ?  or  [ is ]  my flesh <1320 basar > of 
brass <5153 Qiryath <Arba<  nachuwsh > ? 

 : 13  [ Is ]  not my help <5833 <ezrah > in me ?  and is wisdom

from me ? 

 : 14 .  To him that is afflicted <4523 mac > pity <2617 checed

forsaketh <5800 <azab > the fear <3374 yir>ah > of the Almighty

vanish <6789 tsamath > : when it is hot <2527 chom > ,  they are 
consumed <1846 da<ak > out of their place <4725 maqowm > .

turned <3943 laphath > aside <3943 laphath > ;  they go <5927

they had hoped <0982 batach > ;  they came <0935 bow> > thither 
<5704 <ad > ,  and were ashamed <2659 chapher > .

?  or ,  Give a reward <7809 shachad > for me of your substance 
<3581 koach > ? 

 : 23 Or ,  Deliver <4422 malat > me from the enemy s <6862 tsar

hand <3027 yad > of the mighty <6184 <ariyts > ?

my tongue <2790 charash > : and cause me to understand <0995

arguing <3198 yakach > reprove <3198 yakach > ? 

 : 26 Do ye imagine <2803 chashab > to reprove <3198 yakach > 
words <4405 millah > ,  and the speeches <0561 >emer > of one 
that is desperate <2976 ya>ash > ,   [ which are ]  as wind

fatherless <3490 yathowm > ,  and ye dig <3738 karah >  [ a pit

look <6437 panah > upon me ;  for  [ it is ]  evident unto you

 : 8 The eye <5869 <ayin > of him that hath seen <7210 ro>iy > 
me shall see <7789 shuwr > me no <3808 lo> >  [ more ]  : thine 
eyes <5869 <ayin >  [ are ]  upon me ,  and I  [ am ]  not . 

 : 9  [ As ]  the cloud <6051 <anan > is consumed <3615 kalah >

his place <4725 maqowm > know <5234 nakar > him any more <5750

 : 11 Therefore <1571 gam > I will not refrain <2820 chasak > my 
mouth <6310 peh > ;  I will speak <1696 dabar > in the anguish 
<6862 tsar > of my spirit <7307 ruwach > ;  I will complain 
<7878 siyach > in the bitterness <4751 mar > of my soul <5315

 : 12  [ Am ]  I a sea <3220 yam > ,  or a whale <8577 tanniyn > 
,  that thou settest <7760 suwm > a watch <4929 mishmar > over 
<5921 <al > me ? 

 : 13 When <3588 kiy > I say <0559 >amar > ,  My bed <6210 <eres

shall ease <5375 nasa> > my complaint <7878 siyach > ; 

 : 14 Then thou scarest <2865 chathath > me with dreams <2472 
chalowm > ,  and terrifiest <1204 ba<ath > me through visions 
<2384 chizzayown > : 

 : 15 So that my soul <5315 nephesh > chooseth <0977 bachar > 
strangling <4267 machanaq > ,   [ and ]  death <4194 maveth > 
rather than my life <6106 <etsem > . 

 : 16 I loathe <3988 ma>ac >  [ it ]  ;  I would not live <2421 
chayah > alway <5769 <owlam > : let me alone <2308 chadal > ;  
for my days <3117 yowm >  [ are ]  vanity <1892 hebel > . 

 : 17 .  What <4100 mah >  [ is ]  man <0582 >enowsh > ,  that 
thou shouldest magnify <1431 gadal > him ?  and that thou 
shouldest set <7896 shiyth > thine heart <3820 leb > upon him ? 

 : 18 And  [ that ]  thou shouldest visit <6485 paqad > him 
every morning <1242 boqer > ,   [ and ]  try <0974 bachan > him 
every moment <7281 rega< > ? 

 : 19 How <5704 <ad > long <4101 mah > wilt thou not depart 
<8159 sha<ah > from me ,  nor <3808 lo> > let me alone <7503 
raphah > till <5704 <ad > I swallow <1104 bala< > down my

 : 20 I have sinned <2398 chata> > ;  what <4100 mah > shall I 
do <6466 pa<al > unto thee ,  O thou preserver <5314 naphash > 
of men <0120 >adam > ?  why <4100 mah > hast thou set <7760 suwm

burden <4853 massa> > to myself ? 

 : 21 And why <4100 mah > dost thou not pardon <5375 nasa> > my 
transgression <6588 pesha< > ,  and take <5674 <abar > away 
<5674 <abar > mine iniquity <5771 <avon > ?  for now <6258 
<attah > shall I sleep <7901 shakab > in the dust <6083 <aphar >

 : Job 8

 : 1 .  Then answered <6030 <anah > Bildad <1085 Bildad > the 
Shuhite <7747 Shuchiy > ,  and said <0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 How <5704 <ad > long <5704 <ad > wilt thou speak <4448

 : 3 Doth God <0410 >el > pervert <5791 <avath > judgment <4941

<avath > justice <6664 tsedeq > ? 

 : 4 If <0518 >im > thy children <1121 ben > have sinned <2398

away for their transgression <6588 pesha< > ; 

 : 5 If <0518 >im > thou wouldest seek <7836 shachar > unto God 
<0410 >el > betimes <7836 shachar > ,  and make thy supplication 
<2603 chanan > to the Almighty <7706 Shadday > ; 

 : 6 If <0518 >im > thou  [ wert ]  pure <2134 zak > and upright 
<3477 yashar > ;  surely <3588 kiy > now <6258 <attah > he would

 : Job 9

 : 1 .  Then Job <0347 >Iyowb > answered <6030 <anah > and said 
<0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 I know <3045 yada< >  [ it is ]  so <3651 ken > of a truth 
<0551 >omnam > : but how <4100 mah > should man <0582 >enowsh > 
be just <6663 tsadaq > with God <0410 >el > ? 

 : 3 If <0518 >im > he will contend <7378 riyb > with him ,  he 
cannot <3808 lo> > answer <6030 <anah > him one <0259 >echad > 
of a thousand <0505 >eleph > . 

 : 4  [ He is ]  wise <2450 chakam > in heart <3824 lebab > ,

<4310 miy > hath hardened <7185 qashah >  [ himself ]  against

 : 5 Which removeth <6275 <athaq > the mountains <2022 har > ,  
and they know <3045 yada< > not : which <0834 >aher > 
overturneth <2015 haphak > them in his anger <0639 >aph > .

and it riseth <2224 zarach > not ;  and sealeth <2856 chatham > 
up the stars <3556 kowkab > .

heavens <8064 shamayim > ,  and treadeth <1869 darak > upon the 
waves <1116 bamah > of the sea <3220 yam > .

<0369 >ayin > finding <2714 cheqer > out ;  yea ,  and wonders 
<6381 pala> > without number <4557 micpar > . 

 : 11 Lo <2005 hen > ,  he goeth <5674 <abar > by me ,  and I 
see <7200 ra>ah >  [ him ]  not : he passeth <2498 chalaph > on 
also ,  but I perceive <0995 biyn > him not . 

 : 12 Behold <2005 hen > ,  he taketh <2862 chathaph > away 
<2862 chathaph > ,  who <4310 miy > can hinder <7725 shuwb > him 
?  who <4310 miy > will say <0559 >amar > unto him ,  What <4100

 : 13  [ If ]  God <0433 >elowahh > will not withdraw <7725 
shuwb > his anger <0639 >aph > ,  the proud <7293 rahab > 
helpers <5826 <azar > do stoop <7817 shachach > under <8478

 : 14 .  How <0637 >aph > much less shall I answer <6030 <anah > 
him ,   [ and ]  choose <0977 bachar > out my words <1697 dabar

 : 15 Whom <0834 >aher > ,  though <0518 >im > I were righteous 
<6663 tsadaq > ,   [ yet ]  would I not answer <6030 <anah > ,   
[ but ]  I would make supplication <2603 chanan > to my judge

 : 17 For he breaketh <7779 shuwph > me with a tempest <8183 
s@<arah > ,  and multiplieth <7235 rabah > my wounds <6482 
petsa< > without <2600 chinnam > cause <2600 chinnam > . 

 : 18 He will not suffer <5414 nathan > me to take my breath 
<7307 ruwach > ,  but filleth <7646 saba< > me with bitterness 
<4472 mamror > . 

 : 19 If <0518 >im >  [ I speak ]  of strength <3581 koach > ,  
lo <2009 hinneh > ,   [ he is ]  strong <0533 >ammiyts > : and 
if <0518 >im > of judgment <4941 mishpat > ,  who <4310 miy > 
shall set <3259 ya<ad > me a time  [ to plead ]  ? 

 : 20 If <0518 >im > I justify <6663 tsadaq > myself ,  mine own 
mouth <6310 peh > shall condemn <7561 rasha< > me :  [ if I say

perverse <6140 <aqash > . 

 : 21  [ Though ]  I  [ were ]  perfect <8535 tam > ,   [ yet ]  
would I not know <3045 yada< > my soul <5315 nephesh > : I would

<3615 kalah > the perfect <8535 tam > and the wicked <7563

the trial <4531 maccah > of the innocent <5355 naqiy > . 

 : 24 The earth <0776 >erets > is given <5414 nathan > into the

   [ and ]  who <4310 miy >  [ is ]  he ? 

 : 25 .  Now my days <3117 yowm > are swifter <7043 qalal > than 
<4480 min > a post <7323 ruwts > : they flee <1272 barach > away

 : 27 If <0518 >im > I say <0559 >amar > ,  I will forget <7911

<azab > off my heaviness <6440 paniym > ,  and comfort <1082

<6094 <atstsebeth > ,  I know <3045 yada< > that thou wilt not 
hold me innocent <5352 naqah > . 

 : 29  [ If ]  I be wicked <7561 rasha< > ,  why <4100 mah > 
then labour <3021 yaga< > I in vain <1892 hebel > ? 

 : 30 If <0518 >im > I wash <7364 rachats > myself with snow

ditch <7845 shachath > ,  and mine own clothes <8008 salmah > 
shall abhor <8581 ta<ab > me . 

 : 32 For  [ he is ]  not a man <0376 >iysh > ,  as I  [ am ,  
that ]  I should answer<6030 <anah > him ,   [ and ]  we should 
come <0935 bow> > together <3162 yachad > in judgment <4941

betwixt <0996 beyn > us ,   [ that ]  might lay <7896 shiyth > 
his hand <3027 yad > upon us both <8147 sh@nayim > . 

 : 34 Let him take <5493 cuwr > his rod <7626 shebet > away 
<5493 cuwr > from me ,  and let not his fear <0367 >eymah > 
terrify <1204 ba<ath > me :

 : Job 10

 : 1 .  My soul <5315 nephesh > is weary <5354 naqat > of my 
life <2416 chay > ;  I will leave <5800 <azab > my complaint 
<7878 siyach > upon myself ;  I will speak <1696 dabar > in the 
bitterness <4751 mar > of my soul <5315 nephesh > . 

 : 2 I will say <0559 >amar > unto God <0433 >elowahh > ,  Do 
not condemn <7561rasha< > me ;  shew <3045 yada< > me wherefore 
thou contendest with me . 

 : 3  [ Is it ]  good <2896 towb > unto thee that thou shouldest 
oppress <6231 <ashaq > ,  that thou shouldest despise <3988

and shine <3313 yapha< > upon the counsel <6098 <etsah > of the

 : 5  [ Are ]  thy days <3117 yowm > as the days <3117 yowm > of 
man <0582 >enowsh > ?   [ are ]  thy years <8141 shaneh > as man

 : 6 That thou enquirest <1245 baqash > after <0310 >achar > 
mine iniquity <5771 <avon > ,  and searchest <1875 darash > 
after <0310 >achar > my sin <2403 chatta>ah > ? 

 : 7 Thou knowest <1847 da<ath > that I am not wicked <7561

deliver <5337 natsal > out of thine hand <3027 yad > . 

 : 8 .  Thine hands <3027 yad > have made <6087 <atsab > me and 
fashioned <6213 <asah > me together <3162 yachad > round <5439

 : 9 Remember <2142 zakar > ,  I beseech <4994 na> > thee ,  
that thou hast made <6213 <asah > me as the clay <2563 chomer > ;
  and wilt thou bring <7725 shuwb > me into <0413 >el > dust 
<6083 <aphar > again <7725 shuwb > ? 

 : 10 Hast thou not poured <5413 nathak > me out as milk <2461

g@binah > ? 

 : 11 Thou hast clothed <3847 labash > me with skin <5785 <owr > 
and flesh <1320 basar > ,  and hast fenced <7753 suwk > me with 
bones <6106 <etsem > and sinews <1517 giyd > . 

 : 12 Thou hast granted <6213 <asah > me life <2416 chay > and 
favour <2617 checed > ,  and thy visitation <6486 p@quddah > 
hath preserved <8104 shamar > my spirit <7307 ruwach > . 

 : 13 And these <0428 >el - leh >  [ things ]  hast thou hid 
<6845 tsaphan > in thine heart <3824 lebab > : I know <3045

 : 14 .  If <0518 >im > I sin <2398 chata> > ,  then thou 
markest <8104 shamar > me ,  and thou wilt not acquit <5352

and again <7725 shuwb > thou shewest thyself marvellous <6381

that I had given <1478 gava< > up the ghost <1478 gava< > ,  and 
no <3808 lo> > eye <5869 <ayin > had seen <7200 ra>ah > me ! 

 : 19 I should have been <1961 hayah > as though I had not been 
<1961 hayah > ;  I should have been carried <2986 yabal > from 
the womb <0990 beten > to the grave <6913 qeber > . 

 : 20  [ Are ]  not my days <3117 yowm > few <4592 m@<at > ?  
cease <2308 chadal >  [ then ,  and ]  let me alone <7896 shiyth

darkness <5890 <eyphah >  [ itself ;  and ]  of the shadow <6738

 : Job 11

 : 1 .  Then answered <6030 <anah > Zophar <6691 Tsowphar > the 
Naamathite <5284 Na<amathiy > ,  and said <0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 Should not the multitude <7230 rob > of words <1697 dabar > 
be answered <6030 <anah > ?  and should a man <0376 >iysh > full 
of talk <8193 saphah > be justified <6663 tsadaq > ? 

 : 3 Should thy lies <0907 bad > make men <4962 math > hold 
<2790 charash > their peace <2790 charash > ?  and when thou 
mockest <3932 la<ag > ,  shall no <0369 >ayin > man make thee 
ashamed <3637 kalam > ? 

 : 4 For thou hast said <0559 >amar > ,  My doctrine <3948 
leqach >  [ is ]  pure <2134 zak > ,  and I am clean <1249 bar > 
in thine eyes <5869 <ayin > . 

 : 5 But oh that God <0433 >elowahh > would speak <1696 dabar > ,
  and open <6605 pathach > his lips <8193 saphah > against <5973 
<im > thee ; 

 : 6 And that he would shew <5046 nagad > thee the secrets <8587 
ta<alummah > of wisdom <2451 chokmah > ,  that  [ they are ]  
double <3718 kephel > to that which is !  Know <3045 yada< > 
therefore that God <0433 >elowahh > exacteth <5382 nashah > of 
thee  [ less ]  than thine iniquity <5771 <avon >  [ deserveth ] 
 . 

 : 7 .  Canst thou by searching <2714 cheqer > find <4672 matsa>

the Almighty <7706 Shadday > unto perfection <8503 takliyth > ? 

 : 8  [ It is ]  as high <1363 gobahh > as heaven <8064 shamayim

<6013 <amoq > than <4480 min > hell <7585 sh@>owl > ;  what 
<4100 mah > canst thou know <3045 yada< > ? 

 : 9 The measure <4055 mad > thereof  [ is ]  longer <0752 >arok

rachab > than <4480 min > the sea <3220 yam > . 

 : 10 If <0518 >im > he cut <2498 chalaph > off ,  and shut 
<5462 cagar > up ,  or gather <6950 qahal > together ,  then who 
<4310 miy > can hinder <7725 shuwb > him ? 

 : 11 For he knoweth <3045 yada< > vain <7723 shav> > men <4962 
math > : he seeth <7200 ra>ah > wickedness <0205 >aven > also ;  
will he not then consider <0995 biyn >  [ it ]  ? 

 : 12 For vain <5014 nabab > man would be wise <3823 labab > ,  
though man be born <3205 yalad >  [ like ]  a wild <6501 pere> > 
ass s <6501 pere> > colt <5895 <ayir > . 

 : 13 .  If <0518 >im > thou prepare <3559 kuwn > thine heart 
<3820 leb > ,  and stretch <6566 paras > out thine hands <3709

 : 14 If <0518 >im > iniquity <0205 >aven >  [ be ]  in thine

not wickedness <5766 <evel > dwell <7931 shakan > in thy 
tabernacles <0168 >ohel > . 

 : 15 For then <0227 >az > shalt thou lift <5375 nasa> > up thy 
face <6440 paniym > without spot <3971 m>uwm > ;  yea ,  thou 
shalt be stedfast <3332 yatsaq > ,  and shalt not fear <3372

 : 16 Because <3588 kiy > thou shalt forget <7911 shakach >  [ 
thy ]  misery <5999 <amal > ,   [ and ]  remember <2142 zakar >  
[ it ]  as waters <4325 mayim >  [ that ]  pass <5674 <abar > 
away : 

 : 17 And  [ thine ]  age <2465 cheled > shall be clearer <6965 
quwm > than the noonday <6672 tsohar > ;  thou shalt shine <5774 
<uwph > forth ,  thou shalt be as the morning <1242 boqer > . 

 : 18 And thou shalt be secure <0982 batach > ,  because <3588 
kiy > there is hope <8615 tiqvah > ;  yea ,  thou shalt dig 
<2658 chaphar >  [ about <5439 cabiyb > thee ,  and ]  thou 
shalt take <7901 shakab > thy rest <7901 shakab > in safety 
<0983 betach > . 

 : 19 Also thou shalt lie <7257 rabats > down <7257 rabats > ,  
and none <0369 >ayin > shall make  [ thee ]  afraid <2729 charad

thee . 

 : 20 But the eyes <5869 <ayin > of the wicked <7563 rasha< > 
shall fail <3615 kalah > ,  and they shall not escape ,  and 
their hope <8615 tiqvah >  [ shall be as ]  the giving <4646

 : Job 12

 : 1 .  And Job <0347 >Iyowb > answered <6030 <anah > and said 
<0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 No <0551 >omnam > doubt <0551 >omnam > but ye  [ are ]  the 
people <5971 <am > ,  and wisdom <2451 chokmah > shall die <4191

 : 3 But I have understanding <3824 lebab > as well <71> as you ;
  I  [ am <1961 hayah > ]  not inferior <5307 naphal > to you : 
yea ,  who <4310 miy > knoweth <0854 >eth > not such <3644 k@mow

 : 4 I am  [ as ]  one mocked <7832 sachaq > of his neighbour 
<7453 rea< > ,  who calleth <7121 qara> > upon God <0433

<6662 tsaddiyq > upright <8549 tamiym >  [ man is ]  laughed 
<7832 sachaq > to scorn . 

 : 5 He that is ready <3559 kuwn > to slip <4571 ma<ad > with  [ 
his ]  feet <7272 regel >  [ is as ]  a lamp <3940 lappiyd > 
despised <0937 buwz > in the thought <6248 <ashtuwth > of him 
that is at ease <7600 sha>anan > . 

 : 6 .  The tabernacles <0168 >ohel > of robbers <7703 shadad > 
prosper <7951 shalah > ,  and they that provoke <7264 ragaz > 
God <0410 >el > are secure <0987 battuchowth > ;  into whose 
<0834 >aher > hand <3027 yad > God <0433 >elowahh > bringeth

 : 7 But ask <7592 sha>al > now <4994 na> > the beasts <0929

fowls <5775 <owph > of the air <8064 shamayim > ,  and they 
shall tell <5046 nagad > thee : 

 : 8 Or <0176 >ow > speak <7878 siyach > to the earth <0776

fishes <1709 dag > of the sea <3220 yam > shall declare <5608

 : 9 Who <4310 miy > knoweth <3045 yada< > not in all <3605 kol

<3068 Y@hovah > hath wrought <6213 <asah > this <2063 zo>th > ?

<5315 nephesh > of every <3605 kol > living <2416 chay > thing ,

<4405 millah > ?  and the mouth <2441 chek > taste <2938 ta<am > 
his meat <0400 >okel > ?

understanding <8394 tabuwn > .

<1369 g@buwrah > ,  he hath counsel <6098 <etsah > and

 : 14 Behold <2005 hen > ,  he breaketh <2040 harac > down <2040 
harac > ,  and it cannot <3808 lo> > be built <1129 banah > 
again : he shutteth <5462 cagar > up a man <0376 >iysh > ,  and 
there can be no <3808 lo> > opening <6605 pathach > . 

 : 15 Behold <2005 hen > ,  he withholdeth <6113 <atsar > the 
waters <4325 mayim> ,  and they dry <3001 yabesh > up : also he 
sendeth <7971 shalach > them out ,  and they overturn <2015

spoiled <7758 showlal > ,  and maketh the judges <8199 shaphat > 
fools <1984 halal > . 

 : 18 He looseth <6605 pathach > the bond <4148 muwcar > of 
kings <4428 melek > ,  and girdeth <0631 >acar > their loins 
<4975 mothen > with a girdle <0232 >ezowr > . 

 : 19 He leadeth <3212 yalak > princes <3548 kohen > away 
spoiled <7758 showlal > ,  and overthroweth <5557 calaph > the 
mighty <0386 >eythan > . 

 : 20 He removeth <5493 cuwr > away the speech <8193 saphah > of 
the trusty <0539 >aman > ,  and taketh <3947 laqach > away the 
understanding <2940 ta<am > of the aged <2205 zaqen > . 

 : 21 He poureth <8210 shaphak > contempt <0937 buwz > upon 
princes <5081 nadiyb > ,  and weakeneth <7503 raphah > the 
strength <4206 maziyach > of the mighty <0650 >aphiyq > . 

 : 22 He discovereth <1540 galah > deep <6013 <amoq > things out 
of darkness <2822 choshek > ,  and bringeth <3318 yatsa> > out 
to light <0216 >owr > the shadow <6757 tsalmaveth > of death 
<6757 tsalmaveth > . 

 : 23 He increaseth <7679 saga> > the nations <1471 gowy > ,  
and destroyeth <6> them : he enlargeth <7849 shatach > the 
nations <1471 gowy > ,  and straiteneth <5148 nachah > them  [

 : 24 He taketh <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > the heart <3820

the earth <0776 >erets > ,  and causeth them to wander <8582

 : 25 They grope <4959 mashash > in the dark <2822 choshek > 
without <3808 lo> > light <0216 >owr > ,  and he maketh them to

 : 1 .  Lo <2005 hen > ,  mine eye <5869 <ayin > hath seen <7200

<3045 yada< > also <1571 gam > : I  [ am ]  not inferior <5307

 : 3 Surely <0199 >uwlam > I would speak <1696 dabar > to the 
Almighty <7706 Shadday > ,  and I desire <2654 chaphets > to 
reason <3198 yakach > with God <0410 >el > .

<2790 charash > !  and it should be your wisdom <2451 chokmah > .
 

 : 6 Hear <8085 shama< > now <4994 na> > my reasoning <8433 
towkechah > ,  and hearken <7181 qashab > to the pleadings <7379 
riyb > of my lips <8193 saphah > . 

 : 7 Will ye speak <1696 dabar > wickedly <5766 <evel > for God 
<0410 >el > ?  and talk <1696 dabar > deceitfully <7423 r@miyah

 : 8 Will ye accept <5375 nasa> > his person <6440 paniym > ?  
will ye contend <7378 riyb > for God <0410 >el > ? 

 : 9 Is it good <2896 towb > that he should search <2713 chaqar

 : 10 He will surely reprove <3198 yakach > you ,  if <0518 >im

<6440 paniym > . 

 : 11 Shall not his excellency <7613 s@>eth > make you afraid 
<1204 ba<ath > ?  and his dread <6343 pachad > fall <5307 naphal

 : 12 Your remembrances <2146 zikrown >  [ are ]  like <4911 
mashal > unto ashes <0665 >epher > ,  your bodies <1354 gab > to 
bodies <1472 g@viyah > of clay <2563 chomer > . 

 : 13 .  Hold <2790 charash > your peace <2790 charash > ,  let 
me alone ,  that I may speak <1696 dabar > ,  and let come <5674 
<abar > on me what <4100 mah >  [ will ]  .

in my teeth <8127 shen > ,  and put <7760 suwm > my life <5315

ways <1870 derek > before him . 

 : 16 He also <1571 gam >  [ shall be ]  my salvation <3444 
y@shuw<ah > : for an hypocrite <2611 chaneph > shall not come 
<0935 bow> > before <6440 paniym > him . 

 : 17 Hear <8085 shama< > diligently my speech <4405 millah > ,  
and my declaration <0262 >achvah > with your ears <0241 >ozen > .
 

 : 18 Behold <2009 hinneh > now <4994 na> > ,  I have <1961

afraid <1204 ba<ath > .

answer <7725 shuwb > thou me . 

 : 23 .  How <4100 mah > many  [ are ]  mine iniquities <5771

 : 24 Wherefore <4100 mah > hidest <5641 cathar > thou thy face 
<6440 paniym > ,  and holdest <2803 chashab > me for thine enemy 
<0341 >oyeb > ? 

 : 25 Wilt thou break <6206 <arats > a leaf <5929 <aleh > driven 
<5086 nadaph > to and fro ?  and wilt thou pursue <7291 radaph > 
the dry <3002 yabesh > stubble <7179 qash > ? 

 : 26 For thou writest <3789 kathab > bitter <4846 m@rorah >

<8104 shamar > unto all <3605 kol > my paths <0734 >orach > ;  
thou settest a print <2707 chaqah > upon the heels <8323 sarar >

 : 2 He cometh <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > like a flower

<1272 barach > also as a shadow <6738 tsel > ,  and continueth

 : 3 And dost thou open <6491 paqach > thine eyes <5869 <ayin > 
upon such <2088 zeh > an one ,  and bringest <0935 bow> > me 
into judgment <4941 mishpat > with thee ?

 : 6 Turn <8159 sha<ah > from him ,  that he may rest <2308

  as an hireling <7916 sakiyr > ,  his day <3117 yowm > .

  if it be cut <3772 karath > down ,  that it will sprout <2498

 : 13 O that thou wouldest hide <6845 tsaphan > me in the grave 
<7585 sh@>owl > ,  that thou wouldest keep me secret <5641 
cathar > ,  until <5704 <ad > thy wrath <0639 >aph > be past 
<7725 shuwb > ,  that thou wouldest appoint <7896 shiyth > me a 
set <2706 choq > time ,  and remember <2142 zakar > me ! 

 : 14 If <0518 >im > a man <1397 geber > die <4191 muwth > ,

work <4639 ma<aseh > of thine hands <3027 yad > . 

 : 16 .  For now <6258 <attah > thou numberest <5608 caphar > my 
steps <6806 tsa<ad > : dost thou not watch <8104 shamar > over 
<5921 <al > my sin <2403 chatta>ah > ? 

 : 17 My transgression <6588 pesha< >  [ is ]  sealed <2856

taphal > up mine iniquity <5771 <avon > . 

 : 18 And surely <0199 >uwlam > the mountain <2022 har > falling

and the rock <6697 tsuwr > is removed <6275 <athaq > out of his

 : 19 The waters <4325 mayim > wear <7833 shachaq > the stones 
<68> : thou washest <7857 shataph > away the things which grow 
<5599 caphiyach >  [ out ]  of the dust <6083 <aphar > of the 
earth <0776 >erets > ;  and thou destroyest <6> the hope <8615

<8138 shanah > his countenance <6440 paniym > ,  and sendest

 : Job 15

 : 1 .  Then answered <6030 <anah > Eliphaz <0464 >Eliyphaz > 
the Temanite <8489 Teymaniy > ,  and said <0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 Should a wise <2450 chakam > man utter vain <7307 ruwach > 
knowledge <1847 da<ath > ,  and fill <4390 male> > his belly 
<0990 beten > with the east <6921 qadiym > wind <7307 ruwach > ? 

 : 3 Should he reason <3198 yakach > with unprofitable <5532 
cakan > talk <1697 dabar > ?  or with speeches <4405 millah > 
wherewith he can do <5953 <alal > no <3808 lo> > good <3276

 : 4 Yea <0637 >aph > ,  thou castest <6565 parar > off fear 
<3374 yir>ah > ,  and restrainest <1639 gara< > prayer <7878 
siyach > before <6440 paniym > God <0410 >el > . 

 : 5 For thy mouth <6310 peh > uttereth <0502 >alph > thine 
iniquity <5771 <avon > ,  and thou choosest <0977 bachar > the 
tongue <3956 lashown > of the crafty <6175 <aruwm > . 

 : 6 Thine own mouth <6310 peh > condemneth <7561 rasha< > thee ,
  and not I : yea ,  thine own lips <8193 saphah > testify <6030 
<anah > against thee . 

 : 7  [ Art ]  thou the first <7223 ri>shown > man <0120 >adam > 
 [ that ]  was born <3205 yalad > ?  or wast thou made <2342 
chuwl > before <6440 paniym > the hills <1389 gib<ah > ? 

 : 8 Hast thou heard <8085 shama< > the secret <5475 cowd > of 
God <0433 >elowahh > ?  and dost thou restrain <1639 gara< > 
wisdom <2451 chokmah > to thyself <0413 >el > ? 

 : 9 What <4100 mah > knowest <3045 yada< > thou ,  that we know 
<3045 yada< > not ?   [ what ]  understandest <0995 biyn > thou ,
  which <1931 huw> >  [ is ]  not in us ? 

 : 10 With us  [ are ]  both <1571 gam > the grayheaded and very 
<3453 yashiysh > aged <3453 yashiysh > men ,  much <3524 kabbiyr

 : 11  [ Are ]  the consolations <8575 tanchuwm > of God <0410

 : 12 Why <4100 mah > doth thine heart <3820 leb > carry <3947 
laqach > thee away ?  and what <4100 mah > do thy eyes <5869 
<ayin > wink <7335 razam > at , 

 : 13 That thou turnest <7725 shuwb > thy spirit <7307 ruwach > 
against <0413 >el > God <0410 >el > ,  and lettest  [ such ]  
words <4405 millah > go <3318 yatsa> > out of thy mouth <6310

 : 14 What <4100 mah >  [ is ]  man <0582 >enowsh > ,  that he 
should be clean <2135 zakah > ?  and  [ he which is ]  born 
<3205 yalad > of a woman <0802 >ishshah > ,  that he should be 
righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > ? 

 : 15 Behold <2005 hen > ,  he putteth no <3808 lo> > trust 
<0539 >aman > in his saints <6918 qadowsh > ;  yea ,  the 
heavens <8064 shamayim > are not clean <2141 zakak > in his

 : 16 How <0637 >aph > much more abominable <8581 ta<ab > and 
filthy <0444 >alach >  [ is ]  man <0376 >iysh > ,  which 
drinketh <8354 shathah > iniquity <5766 <evel > like water <4325

 : 17 .  I will shew <2331 chavah > thee ,  hear <8085 shama< > 
me ;  and that  [ which ]  I have seen <2372 chazah > I will 
declare <5608 caphar > ; 

 : 18 Which <0834 >aher > wise <2450 chakam > men have told 
<5046 nagad > from their fathers <1> ,  and have not hid <3582

<2114 zuwr > passed <5674 <abar > among <8432 tavek > them . 

 : 20 The wicked <7563 rasha< > man travaileth <2342 chuwl > 
with pain all <3605 kol >  [ his ]  days <3117 yowm > ,  and the 
number <4557 micpar > of years <8141 shaneh > is hidden <6845 
tsaphan > to the oppressor <6184 <ariyts > . 

 : 21 A dreadful <6343 pachad > sound <6963 qowl >  [ is ]  in 
his ears <0241 >ozen > : in prosperity <7965 shalowm > the 
destroyer <7703 shadad > shall come <0935 bow> > upon him . 

 : 22 He believeth <0539 >aman > not that he shall return <7725 
shuwb > out of darkness <2822 choshek > ,  and he is waited 
<6822 tsaphah > for of the sword <2719 chereb > . 

 : 23 He wandereth <5074 nadad > abroad <5074 nadad > for bread 
<3899 lechem > ,   [ saying ]  ,  Where <0346 >ayeh >  [ is it ] 
 ?  he knoweth <3045 yada< > that the day <3117 yowm > of 
darkness <2822 choshek > is ready <3559 kuwn > at his hand <3027 
yad > . 

 : 24 Trouble <6862 tsar > and anguish <4691 m@tsuwqah > shall 
make him afraid <1204 ba<ath > ;  they shall prevail <8630 
taqaph > against him ,  as a king <4428 melek > ready <6264 
<athiyd > to the battle <3593 kiydowr > . 

 : 25 For he stretcheth <5186 natah > out his hand <3027 yad > 
against <0413 >el > God <0410 >el > ,  and strengtheneth <1396 
gabar > himself against <0413 >el > the Almighty <7706 Shadday > 
. 

 : 26 He runneth <7323 ruwts > upon him ,   [ even ]  on  [ his

<1354 gab > of his bucklers <4043 magen > : 

 : 27 Because <3588 kiy > he covereth <3680 kacah > his face 
<6440 paniym > with his fatness <2459 cheleb > ,  and maketh 
<6213 <asah > collops <6371 piymah > of fat <6371 piymah > on  [ 
his ]  flanks <3689 kecel > . 

 : 28 And he dwelleth <7931 shakan > in desolate <3582 kachad > 
cities <5892 <iyr > ,   [ and ]  in houses <1004 bayith > which 
no <3808 lo> > man inhabiteth <3427 yashab > ,  which <0834

 : 29 He shall not be rich <6238 <ashar > ,  neither <3808 lo> > 
shall his substance <2428 chayil > continue <6965 quwm > ,  
neither <3808 lo> > shall he prolong <5186 natah > the 
perfection <4512 minleh > thereof upon the earth <0776 >erets > .
 

 : 30 He shall not depart <5493 cuwr > out of darkness <2822

 : 31 Let not him that is deceived <8582 ta<ah > trust <0539

be his recompence <8545 t@muwrah > . 

 : 32 It shall be accomplished <4390 male> > before <3808 lo> > 
his time <3117 yowm > ,  and his branch <3712 kippah > shall not 
be green <7488 ra<anan > . 

 : 33 He shall shake <2554 chamac > off his unripe <1154 becer > 
grape <1154 becer > as the vine <1612 gephen > ,  and shall cast 
<7993 shalak > off his flower <5328 nitstsah > as the olive 
<2132 zayith > . 

 : 34 For the congregation <5712 <edah > of hypocrites <2611 
chaneph >  [ shall be ]  desolate <1565 galmuwd > ,  and fire 
<0784 >esh > shall consume <0398 >akal > the tabernacles <0168

 : 35 They conceive <2029 harah > mischief <5999 <amal > ,  and 
bring <3205 yalad > forth <3205 yalad > vanity <0205 >aven > ,  
and their belly <0990 beten > prepareth <3559 kuwn > deceit 
<4820 mirmah > . 

 : Job 16

 : 1 .  Then Job <0347 >Iyowb > answered <6030 <anah > and said 
<0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 I have heard <8085 shama< > many <7227 rab > such <0428 >el

 : 3 Shall vain <7307 ruwach > words <1697 dabar > have an end 
<7093 qets > ?  or <0176 >ow > what <4100 mah > emboldeneth 
<4834 marats > thee that thou answerest <6030 <anah > ? 

 : 4 I also <1571 gam > could speak <1696 dabar > as ye  [ do ]  
: if <3863 luw> > your soul <5315 nephesh > were in my soul s 
<5315 nephesh > stead <8478 tachath > ,  I could heap <2266 
chabar > up words <4405 millah > against <5921 <al > you ,  and 
shake <5128 nuwa< > mine head <7218 ro>sh > at you . 

 : 5  [ But ]  I would strengthen <0553 >amats > you with my 
mouth <6310 peh > ,  and the moving <5205 niyd > of my lips 
<8193 saphah > should asswage <2820 chasak >  [ your grief ]  . 

 : 6 .  Though <0518 >im > I speak <1696 dabar > ,  my grief 
<3511 k@>eb > is not asswaged <2820 chasak > : and  [ though ]  
I forbear <2308 chadal > ,  what <4100 mah > am I eased <1980 
halak > ? 

 : 7 But now <6258 <attah > he hath made me weary <3811 la>ah > :
 thou hast made desolate <8074 shamem > all <3605 kol > my 
company <5712 <edah > . 

 : 8 And thou hast filled <7059 qamat > me with wrinkles <7059 
qamat > ,   [ which ]  is a witness <5707 <ed >  [ against me ]  
: and my leanness <3585 kachash > rising <6965 quwm > up in me 
beareth <6030 <anah > witness <6030 <anah > to my face <6440 
paniym > . 

 : 9 He teareth <2963 taraph >  [ me ]  in his wrath <0639 >aph

upon me with his teeth <8127 shen > ;  mine enemy <6862 tsar > 
sharpeneth <3913 latash > his eyes <5869 <ayin > upon me . 

 : 10 They have gaped <6473 pa<ar > upon me with their mouth 
<6310 peh > ;  they have smitten <5221 nakah > me upon the cheek 
<3895 l@chiy > reproachfully <2781 cherpah > ;  they have 
gathered <4390 male> > themselves together <3162 yachad > 
against <5921 <al > me . 

 : 11 God <0410 >el > hath delivered <5462 cagar > me to the 
ungodly <5760 <aviyl > ,  and turned <3399 yarat > me over <5921 
<al > into <0413 >el > the hands <3027 yad > of the wicked <7563

 : 12 I was at ease <7961 shalev > ,  but he hath broken <6565

by my neck <6203 <oreph > ,  and shaken <6327 puwts > me to 
pieces ,  and set <6965 quwm > me up for his mark <4307 mattara>

 : 13 His archers <7228 rab > compass <5437 cabab > me round 
<5437 cabab > about ,  he cleaveth <6398 palach > my reins <3629 
kilyah > asunder ,  and doth not spare <2550 chamal > ;  he 
poureth <8210 shaphak > out my gall <4845 m@rerah > upon the 
ground <0776 >erets > . 

 : 14 He breaketh <6555 parats > me with breach <6556 perets > 
upon breach <6556 perets > ,  he runneth <7323 ruwts > upon me 
like a giant <1368 gibbowr > . 

 : 15 I have sewed <8609 taphar > sackcloth <8242 saq > upon my 
skin <1539 geled > ,  and defiled <5953 <alal > my horn <7161 
qeren > in the dust <6083 <aphar > .

<1065 B@kiy > ,  and on <5921 <al > my eyelids <6079 <aph<aph >  
[ is ]  the shadow <6757 tsalmaveth > of death <6757 tsalmaveth

 : 17 .  Not for  [ any ]  injustice <2555 chamac > in mine 
hands <3709 kaph > : also my prayer <8605 t@phillah >  [ is ]  
pure <2134 zak > . 

 : 18 O earth <0776 >erets > ,  cover <3680 kacah > not thou my 
blood <1818 dam > ,  and let my cry <2201 za<aq > have <1961 
hayah > no <0408 >al > place <4725 maqowm > . 

 : 19 Also <1571 gam > now <6258 <attah > ,  behold <2009 hinneh

  and my record <7717 sahed >  [ is ]  on high <4791 marowm > . 

 : 20 My friends <7453 rea< > scorn <3887 luwts > me :  [ but ]  
mine eye <5869 <ayin > poureth <1811 dalaph > out  [ tears ]  
unto God <0433 >elowahh > . 

 : 21 O that one might plead <3198 yakach > for a man <1397 
geber > with God <0433 >elowahh > ,  as a man <0120 >adam >  [ 
pleadeth ]  for his neighbour <7453 rea< > ! 

 : 22 When <3588 kiy > a few <4557 micpar > years <8141 shaneh >

<6148 <arab > with thee ;  who <4310 miy >  [ is ]  he  [ that ] 
 will strike <8628 taqa< > hands <3027 yad > with me ? 

 : 4 For thou hast hid <6845 tsaphan > their heart <3820 leb > 
from understanding <7922 sekel > : therefore shalt thou not 
exalt <7311 ruwm >  [ them ]  . 

 : 5 He that speaketh <5046 nagad > flattery <2506 cheleq > to  
[ his ]  friends <7453 rea< > ,  even the eyes <5869 <ayin > of

was as a tabret <8611 topheth > .

of sorrow <3708ka<ac > ,  and all <3605 kol > my members <3338

removed <6275 <athaq > out of his place <4725 maqowm > ? 

 : 5 .  Yea <1571 gam > ,  the light <0216 >owr > of the wicked 
<7563 rasha< > shall be put <1846 da<ak > out ,  and the spark 
<7632 shabiyb > of his fire <0784 >esh > shall not shine <5050 
nagahh > . 

 : 6 The light <0216 >owr > shall be dark <2821 chashak > in his 
tabernacle <0168 >ohel > ,  and his candle <5216 niyr > shall be 
put <1846 da<ak > out with him . 

 : 7 The steps <6806 tsa<ad > of his strength <0202 >own > shall 
be straitened <3334 yatsar > ,  and his own counsel <6098 <etsah 
> shall cast <7993 shalak > him down . 

 : 8 For he is cast <7971 shalach > into a net <7568 resheth > 
by his own feet <7272 regel > ,  and he walketh <1980 halak > 
upon a snare <7639 s@bakah > . 

 : 9 The gin <6341 pach > shall take <0270 >achaz >  [ him ]  by 
the heel <6119 <aqeb > ,   [ and ]  the robber <6782 tsammiym > 
shall prevail <2388 chazaq > against <5921 <al > him . 

 : 10 The snare <2256 chebel >  [ is ]  laid for him in the 
ground <0776 >erets > ,  and a trap <4434 malkodeth > for him in 
the way <5410 nathiyb > . 

 : 11 .  Terrors <1091 ballahah > shall make him afraid <1204 
ba<ath > on every <5437 cabab > side <5439 cabiyb > ,  and shall 
drive <6327 puwts > him to his feet <7272 regel > . 

 : 12 His strength <0202 >own > shall be hungerbitten <7457 
ra<eb > ,  and destruction <0343 >eyd >  [ shall be ]  ready 
<3559 kuwn > at his side <6763 tsela< > . 

 : 13 It shall devour <0398 >akal > the strength <0905 bad > of 
his skin <5785 <owr > :  [ even ]  the firstborn <1060 b@kowr > 
of death <4194 maveth > shall devour <0398 >akal > his strength 
<0905 bad > . 

 : 14 His confidence <4009 mibtach > shall be rooted <5423 
nathaq > out of his tabernacle <0168 >ohel > ,  and it shall 
bring <6805 tsa<ad > him to the king <4428 melek > of terrors 
<1091 ballahah > . 

 : 15 It shall dwell <7931 shakan > in his tabernacle <0168

brimstone <1614 gophriyth > shall be scattered <2219 zarah > 
upon his habitation <5116 naveh > . 

 : 16 His roots <8328 sheresh > shall be dried <3001 yabesh > up 
beneath <8478 tachath > ,  and above <4605 ma<al > shall his 
branch <7105 qatsiyr > be cut <5243 namal > off . 

 : 17 His remembrance <2143 zeker > shall perish <6> from the 
earth <0776 >erets > ,  and he shall have no <3808 lo> > name 
<8034 shem > in the street . 

 : 18 He shall be driven <1920 Hadaph > from light <0216 >owr > 
into darkness <2822 choshek > ,  and chased <5074 nadad > out of 
the world <8398 tebel > . 

 : 19 He shall neither <3808 lo> > have son <5209 niyn > nor 
<3808 lo> > nephew <5220 neked > among his people <5971 <am > ,  
nor <3808 lo> > any remaining <8300 sariyd > in his dwellings 
<4033 maguwr > . 

 : 20 They that come after <0314 >acharown >  [ him ]  shall be 
astonied <8074 shamem > at <5921 <al > his day <3117 yowm > ,  
as they that went <6923 qadam > before <6931 qadmowniy > were 
affrighted . 

 : 21 Surely <0389 >ak > such <0428 >el - leh >  [ are ]  the 
dwellings <4908 mishkan > of the wicked <5767 <avval > ,  and 
this <2088 zeh >  [ is ]  the place <4725 maqowm >  [ of him

 : Job 19

 : 1 .  Then Job <0347 >Iyowb > answered <6030 <anah > and said 
<0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 How <5704 <ad > long <5704 <ad > will ye vex <3013 yagah > 
my soul <5315 nephesh > ,  and break <1792 daka> > me in pieces 
with words <4405 millah > ? 

 : 3 These <2088 zeh > ten <6235 <eser > times <6471 pa<am > 
have ye reproached <3637 kalam > me : ye are not ashamed <0954 
buwsh >  [ that ]  ye make yourselves strange <1970 hakar > to 
me . 

 : 4 And be it indeed <0551 >omnam >  [ that ]  I have erred 
<7683 shagag > ,  mine error <4879 m@shuwgah > remaineth <3885 
luwn > with myself . 

 : 5 If <0518 >im > indeed <0551 >omnam > ye will magnify <1431 
gadal >  [ yourselves ]  against <5921 <al > me ,  and plead 
<3198 yakach > against <5921 <al > me my reproach <2781 cherpah

 : 6 Know <3045 yada< > now <0645 >ephow > that God <0433 
>elowahh > hath overthrown <5791 <avath > me ,  and hath 
compassed <5362 naqaph > me with his net <4685 matsowd > . 

 : 7 Behold <2005 hen > ,  I cry <6817 tsa<aq > out of wrong 
<2555 chamac > ,  but I am not heard <6030 <anah > : I cry <7768 
shava< > aloud <7768 shava< > ,  but  [ there is ]  no <3808 lo>

 : 8 .  He hath fenced <1443 gadar > up my way <0734 >orach > 
that I cannot <3808 lo> > pass <5674 <abar > ,  and he hath set 
<7760 suwm > darkness <2822 choshek > in my paths <5410 nathiyb 
> . 

 : 9 He hath stripped <6584 pashat > me of my glory <3519 kabowd 
> ,  and taken <5493 cuwr > the crown <5850 <atarah >  [ from ]  
my head <7218 ro>sh > . 

 : 10 He hath destroyed <5422 nathats > me on every <5437 cabab 
> side <5439 cabiyb > ,  and I am gone <3212 yalak > : and mine 
hope <8615 tiqvah > hath he removed <5265 naca< > like a tree 
<6086 <ets > . 

 : 11 He hath also kindled <2734 charah > his wrath <0639 >aph > 
against <5921 <al > me ,  and he counteth <2803 chashab > me 
unto him as  [ one of ]  his enemies <6862 tsar > . 

 : 12 His troops <1416 g@duwd > come <0935 bow> > together <3162 
yachad > ,  and raise <5549 calal > up their way <1870 derek > 
against <5921 <al > me ,  and encamp <2583 chanah > round <5439 
cabiyb > about my tabernacle <0168 >ohel > . 

 : 13 He hath put my brethren <0251 >ach > far <7350 rachowq > 
from me ,  andmine acquaintance <3045 yada< > are verily <0389 
>ak > estranged <2114 zuwr > from me . 

 : 14 My kinsfolk <7138 qarowb > have failed <2308 chadal > ,  
and my familiar <3045 yada< > friends have forgotten <7911 
shakach > me . 

 : 15 They that dwell <1481 guwr > in mine house <1004 bayith > ,
  and my maids <0519 >amah > ,  count <2803 chashab > me for a 
stranger <2114 zuwr > : I am an alien <5237 nokriy > in their 
sight <5869 <ayin > . 

 : 16 I called <7121 qara> > my servant <5650 <ebed > ,  and he 
gave  [ me ]  no <3808 lo> > answer <6030 <anah > ;  I intreated 
<2603 chanan > him with my mouth <6310 peh > . 

 : 17 My breath <7307 ruwach > is strange <2114 zuwr > to my 
wife <0802 >ishshah > ,  though I intreated <2589 channowth > 
for the children s <1121 ben >  [ sake ]  of mine own body <0990 
beten > . 

 : 18 Yea <1571 gam > ,  young children despised <3988 ma>ac > 
me ;  I arose <6965 quwm > ,  and they spake <1696 dabar > 
against me . 

 : 19 All <3605 kol > my inward <5475 cowd > friends <4962 math 
> abhorred <8581 ta<ab > me : and they whom I loved <0157 >ahab

 : 20 My bone <6106 <etsem > cleaveth <1692 dabaq > to my skin 
<5785 <owr > and to my flesh <1320 basar > ,  and I am escaped 
<4422 malat > with the skin <5785 <owr > of my teeth <8127 shen

 : 21 Have pity <2603 chanan > upon me ,  have pity <2603 chanan 
> upon me ,  O ye my friends <7453 rea< > ;  for the hand <3027 
yad > of God <0433 >elowahh > hath touched <5060 naga< > me . 

 : 22 Why <4100 mah > do ye persecute <7291 radaph > me as God 
<0410 >el > ,  and are not satisfied <7646 saba< > with my flesh 
<1320 basar > ? 

 : 23 .  Oh that my words <4405 millah > were now <0645 >ephow > 
written <3789 kathab > !  oh that they were printed <2710 chaqaq 
> in a book <5612 cepher > ! 

 : 24 That they were graven <2672 chatsab > with an iron <1270 
barzel > pen<5842 <et > and lead <5777 <owphereth > in the rock 
<6697 tsuwr > for ever <5703 <ad > ! 

 : 25 For I know <3045 yada< >  [ that ]  my redeemer <1350 
ga>al > liveth <2416 chay > ,  and  [ that ]  he shall stand 
<6965 quwm > at the latter <0314 >acharown >  [ day ]  upon the 
earth <6083 <aphar > : 

 : 26 And  [ though ]  after <0310 >achar > my skin <5785 <owr > 
 [ worms ]  destroy <5362 naqaph > this <2063 zo>th >  [ body ]  
,  yet in my flesh <1320 basar > shall I see <2372 chazah > God 
<0433 >elowahh > : 

 : 27 Whom <0834 >aher > I shall see <2372 chazah > for myself , 
 and mine eyes <5869 <ayin > shall behold <7200 ra>ah > ,  and 
not another <2114 zuwr > ;   [ though ]  my reins <3629 kilyah > 
be consumed <3615 kalah > within <2436 cheyq > me . 

 : 28 But ye should say <0559 >amar > ,  Why <4100 mah > 
persecute <7291 radaph > we him ,  seeing the root <8328 sheresh 
> of the matter <1697 dabar > is found <4672 matsa> > in me ? 

 : 29 Be ye afraid <1481 guwr > of the sword <2719 chereb > : 
for wrath <2534 chemah >  [ bringeth ]  the punishments <5771 
<avon > of the sword <2719 chereb > ,  that ye may know <3045 
yada< >  [ there is ]  a judgment <1779 diyn > . 

 : Job 20

 : 1 .  Then answered <6030 <anah > Zophar <6691 Tsowphar > the 
Naamathite <5284 Na<amathiy > ,  and said <0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 Therefore <3651 ken > do my thoughts <5587 ca<iph > cause 
me to answer <7725 shuwb > ,  and for  [ this ]  I make haste 
<2363 chuwsh > . 

 : 3 I have heard <8085 shama< > the check <4148 muwcar > of my 
reproach <3639 k@limmah > ,  and the spirit <7307 ruwach > of my 
understanding <0998 biynah > causeth me to answer <6030 <anah > .
 

 : 4 Knowest <3045 yada< > thou  [ not ]  this <2063 zo>th > of 
old <5703 <ad > ,  since <4480 min > man <0120 >adam > was 
placed <7760 suwm > upon earth <0776 >erets > , 

 : 5 That the triumphing <7445 r@nanah > of the wicked <7563 
rasha< >  [ is ]  short <7138 qarowb > ,  and the joy <8057 
simchah > of the hypocrite <2611 chaneph >  [ but ]  for a 
moment <7281 rega< > ? 

 : 6 Though his excellency <7863 siy> > mount <5927 <alah > up 
to the heavens <8064 shamayim > ,  and his head <7218 ro>sh > 
reach <5060 naga< > unto the clouds <5645 <ab > ; 

 : 7  [ Yet ]  he shall perish <6> for ever <5331 netsach > like 
his own dung <1561 gelel > : they which have seen <7200 ra>ah > 
him shall say <0559 >amar > ,  Where <0335 >ay >  [ is ]  he ? 

 : 8 He shall fly <5774 <uwph > away as a dream <2472 chalowm > ,
  and shall not be found <4672 matsa> > : yea ,  he shall be 
chased <5074 nadad > away as a vision <2384 chizzayown > of the 
night <3915 layil > . 

 : 9 The eye <5869 <ayin > also  [ which ]  saw <7805 shazaph > 
him shall  [ see him ]  no <3808 lo> > more <3254 yacaph > ;  
neither <3808 lo> > shall his place <4725 maqowm > any more 
<5750 <owd > behold <7789 shuwr > him . 

 : 10 .  His children <1121 ben > shall seek to please <7521 
ratsah > the poor <1800 dal > ,  and his hands <3027 yad > shall 
restore <7725 shuwb > their goods <0202 >own > . 

 : 11 His bones <6106 <etsem > are full <4390 male> >  [ of the 
sin ]  of his youth <5934 <aluwm > ,  which shall lie <7901 
shakab > down <7904 shakah > with him in the dust <6083 <aphar > 
. 

 : 12 Though <0518 >im > wickedness <7451 ra< > be sweet <4985 
mathaq > in his mouth <6310 peh > ,   [ though ]  he hide <3582 
kachad > it under <8478 tachath > his tongue <3956 lashown > ; 

 : 13  [ Though ]  he spare <2550 chamal > it ,  and forsake 
<5800 <azab > it not ;  but keep <4513 mana< > it still within 
<8432 tavek > his mouth <2441 chek > : 

 : 14  [ Yet ]  his meat <3899 lechem > in his bowels <4578 
me<ah > is turned <2015haphak > ,   [ it is ]  the gall <4846 
m@rorah > of asps <6620 pethen > within <7030 qiytharoc > him . 

 : 15 He hath swallowed <1104 bala< > down riches <2428 chayil > 
,  and he shall vomit <6958 qow> > them up again : God <0410 >el 
> shall cast <3423 yarash > them out of his belly <0990 beten > .
 

 : 16 He shall suck <3243 yanaq > the poison <7219 ro>sh > of 
asps <6620 pethen > : the viper s <0660 >eph<eh > tongue <3956 
lashown > shall slay <2026 harag > him . 

 : 17 He shall not see <7200 ra>ah > the rivers <6390 p@laggah > 
,  the floods <5104 nahar > ,  the brooks <5158 nachal > of 
honey <1706 d@bash > and butter <2529 chem>ah > . 

 : 18 That which he laboured <3022 yaga< > for shall he restore 
<7725 shuwb > ,  and shall not swallow <1104 bala< >  [ it ]  
down : according to  [ his ]  substance <2428 chayil >  [ shall 
]  the restitution <8545 t@muwrah >  [ be ]  ,  and he shall not 
rejoice <5965 <alac >  [ therein ]  . 

 : 19 Because <3588 kiy > he hath oppressed <7533 ratsats >  [ 
and ]  hath forsaken <5800 <azab > the poor <1800 dal > ;   [ 
because ]  he hath violently <1497 gazal > taken <1497 gazal > 
away <1497 gazal > an house <1004 bayith > which he builded 
<1129 banah > not ; 

 : 20 Surely <3588 kiy > he shall not feel <3045 yada< > 
quietness <7961 shalev > in his belly <0990 beten > ,  he shall 
not save <4422 malat > of that which he desired <2530 chamad > . 

 : 21 There shall none <0369 >ayin > of his meat <0400 >okel > 
be left <8300 sariyd > ;  therefore shall no <3808 lo> > man 
look <2342 chuwl > for his goods <2898 tuwb > . 

 : 22 In the fulness <4390 male> > of his sufficiency <5607 
cepheq > he shall be in straits <3334 yatsar > : every <3605 kol 
> hand <3027 yad > of the wicked <6001 <amel > shall come <0935 
bow> > upon him . 

 : 23 .   [ When ]  he is about to fill <4390 male> > his belly 
<0990 beten > ,   [ God ]  shall cast <7971 shalach > the fury 
<2740 charown > of his wrath <0639 >aph > upon him ,  and shall 
rain <4305 matar >  [ it ]  upon him while he is eating <3894 
lachuwm > . 

 : 24 He shall flee <1272 barach > from the iron <1270 barzel > 
weapon <5402 nesheq > ,   [ and ]  the bow <7198 qesheth > of 
steel <5154 n@chuwshah > shall strike <2498 chalaph > him 
through . 

 : 25 It is drawn <8025 shalaph > ,  and cometh <3318 yatsa> > 
out of the body <1465 gevah > ;  yea ,  the glittering <1300 
baraq > sword <1300 baraq > cometh <1980 halak > out of his gall 
<4846 m@rorah > : terrors <0367 >eymah >  [ are ]  upon him . 

 : 26 All <3605 kol > darkness <2822 choshek >  [ shall be ]  
hid <2244> in his secret <6845 tsaphan > places : a fire <0784

;  it shall go ill <3415 yara< > with him that is left <8300 
sariyd > in his tabernacle <0168 >ohel > . 

 : 27 The heaven <8064 shamayim > shall reveal <1540 galah > his 
iniquity <5771 <avon > ;  and the earth <0776 >erets > shall 
rise <6965 quwm > up against him . 

 : 28 The increase <2981 y@buwl > of his house <1004 bayith > 
shall depart<1540 galah > ,   [ and his goods ]  shall flow 
<5064 nagar > away in the day <3117 yowm > of his wrath <0639

 : 29 This <2088 zeh >  [ is ]  the portion <2506 cheleq > of a

unto him by God <0410 >el > . 

 : Job 21

 : 1 .  But Job <0347 >Iyowb > answered <6030 <anah > and said 
<0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 Hear <8085 shama< > diligently my speech <4405 millah > ,  
and let this <2063 zo>th > be your consolations <8575 tanchuwm > 
. 

 : 3 Suffer <5375 nasa> > me that I may speak <1696 dabar > ;  
and after <0310 >achar > that I have spoken <1696 dabar > ,  
mock <3932 la<ag > on . 

 : 4 As for me ,   [ is ]  my complaint <7878 siyach > to man 
<0120 >adam > ?  and if <0518 >im >  [ it were so ]  ,  why 
<4069 madduwa< > should not my spirit <7307 ruwach > be troubled 
<7114 qatsar > ? 

 : 5 Mark <6437 panah > me ,  and be astonished <8074 shamem > , 
 and lay <7760 suwm >  [ your ]  hand <3027 yad > upon  [ your ]

 : 6 Even when <0518 >im > I remember <2142 zakar > I am afraid 
<0926 bahal > ,  and trembling <6427 pallatsuwth > taketh <0270 
>achaz > hold <0270 >achaz > on my flesh <1320 basar > . 

 : 7 .  Wherefore <4069 madduwa< > do the wicked <7563 rasha< > 
live <2421 chayah > ,  become <6275 <athaq > old <6275 <athaq > ,
  yea <1571 gam > ,  are mighty <1396 gabar > in power <2428 
chayil > ? 

 : 8 Their seed <2233 zera< > is established <3559 kuwn > in

<6631 tse>etsa> > before their eyes <5869 <ayin > . 

 : 9 Their houses <1004 bayith >  [ are ]  safe <7965 shalowm > 
from fear <6343 pachad > ,  neither <3808 lo> >  [ is ]  the rod 
<7626 shebet > of God <0433 >elowahh > upon them . 

 : 10 Their bull <7794 showr > gendereth <5674 <abar > ,  and 
faileth <1602 ga<al > not ;  their cow <6510 parah > calveth 
<6403 palat > ,  and casteth <7921 shakol > not her calf . 

 : 11 They send <7971 shalach > forth their little <5759 <aviyl

yeled > dance <7540 raqad > . 

 : 12 They take <5375 nasa> > the timbrel <8596 toph > and harp 
<3658 kinnowr > ,  and rejoice <8055 samach > at the sound <6963 
qowl > of the organ <5748 <uwgab > .

<2896 towb > ,  and in a moment <7281 rega< > go <5181 nachath > 
down <5181 nachath > to the grave <7585 sh@>owl > . 

 : 14 Therefore they say <0559 >amar > unto God <0410 >el > ,  
Depart <5493 cuwr > from us ;  for we desire <2654 chaphets > 
not the knowledge <1847 da<ath > of thy ways <1870 derek > . 

 : 15 What <4100 mah >  [ is ]  the Almighty <7706 Shadday > ,  
that we should serve <5647 <abad > him ?  and what <4100 mah > 
profit <3276 ya<al > should we have ,  if we pray <6293 paga< > 
unto him ? 

 : 16 Lo <2005 hen > ,  their good <2898 tuwb >  [ is ]  not in 
their hand <3027 yad > : the counsel <6098 <etsah > of the 
wicked <7563 rasha< > is far <7350 rachowq > from me .

wicked <7563 rasha< > put <1846 da<ak > out !  and  [ how oft ]  
cometh <0935 bow> > their destruction <0343 >eyd > upon them !   
[ God ]  distributeth <2505 chalaq > sorrows <2256 chebel > in 
his anger <0639 >aph > . 

 : 18 They are as stubble <8401 teben > before <6440 paniym > 
the wind <7307 ruwach > ,  and as chaff <4671 mots > that the 
storm <5492 cuwphah > carrieth <1589 ganab > away <1589 ganab > .
 

 : 19 God <0433 >elowahh > layeth <6845 tsaphan > up his 
iniquity <0205 >aven > for his children <1121 ben > : he 
rewardeth <7999 shalam > him ,  and he shall know <3045 yada< >  
[ it ]  . 

 : 20 His eyes <5869 <ayin > shall see <7200 ra>ah > his 
destruction <3589 kiyd > ,  and he shall drink <8354 shathah > 
of the wrath <2534 chemah > of the Almighty <7706 Shadday > . 

 : 21 For what <4100 mah > pleasure <2656 chephets >  [ hath ]  
he in his house <1004 bayith > after <0310 >achar > him ,  when 
the number <4557 micpar > of his months <2320 chodesh > is cut 
<2686 chatsats > off in the midst <2686 chatsats > ? 

 : 22 Shall  [ any ]  teach <3925 lamad > God <0410 >el > 
knowledge <1847 da<ath > ?  seeing he judgeth <8199 shaphat > 
those that are high <7311 ruwm > . 

 : 23 One dieth <4191 muwth > in his full <8537 tom > strength 
<6106 <etsem > ,  being wholly <3605 kol > at ease <7946 
shal>anan > and quiet <7961 shalev > . 

 : 24 His breasts <5845 <atiyn > are full <4390 male> > of milk 
<2461 chalab > , and his bones <6106 <etsem > are moistened 
<8248 shaqah > with marrow <4221 moach > . 

 : 25 And another <2088 zeh > dieth <4191 muwth > in the 
bitterness <4751 mar > of his soul <5315 nephesh > ,  and never 
<3808 lo> > eateth <0398 >akal > with pleasure <2896 towb > . 

 : 26 They shall lie <7901 shakab > down <7904 shakah > alike 
<3162 yachad > in the dust <6083 <aphar > ,  and the worms <7415 
rimmah > shall cover <3680 kacah > them . 

 : 27 .  Behold <2005 hen > ,  I know <3045 yada< > your 
thoughts <4284 machashabah > ,  and the devices <4209 m@zimmah > 
 [ which ]  ye wrongfully <2554 chamac > imagine <2554 chamac > 
against <5921 <al > me . 

 : 28 For ye say <0559 >amar > ,  Where <0346 >ayeh >  [ is ]  
the house <1004 bayith > of the prince <5081 nadiyb > ?  and 
where <0346 >ayeh >  [ are ]  the dwelling <4908 mishkan > 
places <0168 >ohel > of the wicked <7563 rasha< > ? 

 : 29 Have ye not asked <7592 sha>al > them that go <5674 <abar

their tokens <0226 >owth > , 

 : 30 That the wicked <7451 ra< > is reserved <2820 chasak > to 
the day <3117 yowm > of destruction <0343 >eyd > ?  they shall 
be brought <2986 yabal > forth to the day <3117 yowm > of wrath 
<5678 <ebrah > . 

 : 31 Who <4310 miy > shall declare <5046 nagad > his way <1870 
derek > to his face <6440 paniym > ?  and who <4310 miy > shall 
repay <7999 shalam > him  [ what ]  he hath done <6213 <asah > ? 

 : 32 Yet shall he be brought <2986 yabal > to the grave <6913 
qeber > ,  and shall remain <8245 shaqad > in the tomb <1430 
gadiysh > . 

 : 33 The clods <7263 regeb > of the valley <5158 nachal > shall 
be sweet <4985 mathaq > unto him ,  and every <3605 kol > man 
<0120 >adam > shall draw <4900 mashak > after <0310 >achar > him 
,  as  [ there are ]  innumerable before <6440 paniym > him . 

 : 34 How <0349 >eyk > then comfort <5162 nacham > ye me in vain 
<1892 hebel > ,  seeing in your answers <8666 t@shuwbah > there 
remaineth <7604 sha>ar > falsehood <4604 ma<al > ? 

 : Job 22

 : 1 .  Then Eliphaz <0464 >Eliyphaz > the Temanite <8489 
Teymaniy > answered <6030 <anah > and said <0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 Can a man <1397 geber > be profitable <5532 cakan > unto 
God <0410 >el > ,  as he that is wise <7919 sakal > may be 
profitable <5532 cakan > unto himself ? 

 : 3  [ Is it ]  any pleasure <2656 chephets > to the Almighty 
<7706 Shadday > ,  that thou art righteous <6663 tsadaq > ?  or  
[ is it ]  gain <1214 batsa< >  [ to him ]  ,  that thou makest 
thy ways <1870 derek > perfect <8552 tamam > ? 

 : 4 Will he reprove <3198 yakach > thee for fear <3374 yir>ah > 
of thee ?  will he enter <0935 bow> > with thee into judgment 
<4941 mishpat > ? 

 : 5 .   [ Is ]  not thy wickedness <7451 ra< > great <7227 rab 
> ?  and thine iniquities <5771 <avon > infinite ? 

 : 6 For thou hast taken <2254 chabal > a pledge <2254 chabal > 
from thy brother <0251 >ach > for nought <2600 chinnam > ,  and 
stripped <6584 pashat > the naked <6174 <arowm > of their 
clothing <0899 beged > . 

 : 7 Thou hast not given water <4325 mayim > to the weary <5889 
<ayeph > to drink <8248 shaqah > ,  and thou hast withholden 
<4513 mana< > bread <3899 lechem > from the hungry <7456 ra<eb > 
. 

 : 8 But  [ as for ]  the mighty <2220 z@rowa< > man <0376 >iysh 
> ,  he had the earth <0776 >erets > ;  and the honourable man 
dwelt <3427 yashab > in it . 

 : 9 Thou hast sent <7971 shalach > widows <0490 >almanah > away 
empty <7387 reyqam > ,  and the arms <2220 z@rowa< > of the 
fatherless <3490 yathowm > have been broken <1792 daka> > . 

 : 10 Therefore snares <6341 pach >  [ are ]  round <5439 cabiyb 
> about thee ,  and sudden <6597 pith>owm > fear <6343 pachad > 
troubleth <0926 bahal > thee ; 

 : 11 Or <0176 >ow > darkness <2822 choshek > ,   [ that ]  thou 
canst not see <7200 ra>ah > ;  and abundance <8229 shiph<ah > of 
waters <4325 mayim > cover <3680 kacah > thee . 

 : 12  [ Is ]  not God <0433 >elowahh > in the height <1363 
gobahh > of heaven <8064 shamayim > ?  and behold <7200 ra>ah > 
the height <7218 ro>sh > of the stars <3556 kowkab > ,  how 
<3588 kiy > high <7311 ruwm > they are ! 

 : 13 And thou sayest <0559 >amar > ,  How <4100 mah > doth God 
<0410 >el > know <3045 yada< > ?  can he judge <8199 shaphat > 
through the dark <6205 <araphel > cloud <6205 <araphel > ? 

 : 14 Thick clouds <5645 <ab >  [ are ]  a covering <5643 cether

<1980 halak > in the circuit <2329 chuwg > of heaven <8064 
shamayim > . 

 : 15 .  Hast thou marked <8104 shamar > the old <5769 <owlam > 
way <0734 >orach > which <0834 >aher > wicked <0205 >aven > men 
<4962 math > have trodden <1869 darak > ? 

 : 16 Which <0834 >aher > were cut <7059 qamat > down out of 
time <6256 <eth > ,  whose foundation <3247 y@cowd > was 
overflown <3332 yatsaq > with a flood <5104 nahar > : 

 : 17 Which said <0559 >amar > unto God <0410 >el > ,  Depart 
<5493 cuwr > from us : and what <4100 mah > can the Almighty 
<7706 Shadday > do <6466 pa<al > for them ? 

 : 18 Yet he filled <4390 male> > their houses <1004 bayith > 
with good <2896 towb >  [ things ]  : but the counsel <6098 
<etsah > of the wicked <7563 rasha< > is far <7350 rachowq > 
from me . 

 : 19 The righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > see <7200 ra>ah >  [ it ]  ,
  and are glad <8056 sameach > : and the innocent <5355 naqiy > 
laugh <3932 la<ag > them to scorn . 

 : 20 Whereas <0518 >im > our substance <7009 qiym > is not cut 
<3582 kachad >down ,  but the remnant <3499 yether > of them the 
fire <0784 >esh > consumeth <0398 >akal > . 

 : 21 .  Acquaint <5532 cakan > now <4994 na> > thyself with him 
,  and be at peace <7999 shalam > : thereby good <2896 towb > 
shall come <0935 bow> > unto thee . 

 : 22 Receive <3947 laqach > ,  I pray <4994 na> > thee ,  the 
law <8451 towrah >from his mouth <6310 peh > ,  and lay <7760 
suwm > up his words <0561 >emer > in thine heart <3824 lebab > . 

 : 23 If <0518 >im > thou return <7725 shuwb > to the Almighty 
<7706 Shadday > ,  thou shalt be built <1129 banah > up ,  thou 
shalt put away <7368 rachaq > iniquity <5766 <evel > far <7350 
rachowq > from thy tabernacles <0168 >ohel > . 

 : 24 Then shalt thou lay <7896 shiyth > up gold <1220 betser > 
as dust <6083 <aphar > ,  and the  [ gold <1220 betser > ]  of 
Ophir <0211 >Owphiyr > as the stones <6697 tsuwr > of the brooks 
<5158 nachal > . 

 : 25 Yea ,  the Almighty <7706 Shadday > shall be thy defence 
<1220 betser > ,  and thou shalt have plenty <8443 tow<aphah > 
of silver <3701 keceph > . 

 : 26 For then <0227 >az > shalt thou have thy delight <6026 
<anag > in the Almighty <7706 Shadday > ,  and shalt lift <5375 
nasa> > up thy face <6440 paniym > unto God <0433 >elowahh > . 

 : 27 Thou shalt make thy prayer <6279 <athar > unto him ,  and 
he shall hear <8085 shama< > thee ,  and thou shalt pay <7999 
shalam > thy vows <5088 neder > . 

 : 28 Thou shalt also decree <1504 gazar > a thing <0562 >omer > 
,  and it shall be established <6965 quwm > unto thee : and the 
light <0216 >owr > shall shine <5050 nagahh > upon thy ways 
<1870 derek > . 

 : 29 When <3588 kiy >  [ men ]  are cast <8213 shaphel > down 
<8213 shaphel > ,  then thou shalt say <0559 >amar > ,   [ There 
is ]  lifting <1466 gevah > up ;  and he shall save <3467 yasha< 
> the humble person . 

 : 30 He shall deliver <4422 malat > the island <0336 >iy > of 
the innocent <5355 naqiy > : and it is delivered <4422 malat > 
by the pureness <1252 bor > of thine hands <3709 kaph > . 

 : Job 23

 : 1 .  Then Job <0347 >Iyowb > answered <6030 <anah > and said 
<0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 Even <1571 gam > to day <3117 yowm >  [ is ]  my complaint 
<7878 siyach > bitter <4805 m@riy > : my stroke <3027 yad > is 
heavier <3513 kabad > than <5921 <al > my groaning <0585 
>anachah > . 

 : 3 Oh that I knew <3045 yada< > where I might find <4672 
matsa> > him !   [ that ]  I might come <0935 bow> >  [ even ]  
to his seat <8499 t@kuwnah > ! 

 : 4 I would order <6186 <arak >  [ my ]  cause <4941 mishpat > 
before <6440 paniym > him ,  and fill <4390 male> > my mouth 
<6310 peh > with arguments <8433 towkechah > . 

 : 5 I would know <3045 yada< > the words <4405 millah >  [ 
which ]  he would answer <6030 <anah > me ,  and understand 
<0995 biyn > what <4100 mah > he would say <0559 >amar > unto me 
. 

 : 6 Will he plead <7378 riyb > against <5978 <immad > me with  
[ his ]  great <7227 rab > power <3581 koach > ?  No <3808 lo> > 
;  but he would put <7760 suwm >  [ strength ]  in me . 

 : 7 There <8033 sham > the righteous <3477 yashar > might 
dispute <3198 yakach > with him ;  so should I be delivered 
<6403 palat > for ever <5331 netsach > from my judge <8199 
shaphat > . 

 : 8 .  Behold <2005 hen > ,  I go <1980 halak > forward <6924 
qedem > ,  but he  [ is ]  not  [ there <8033 sham > ]  ;  and 
backward <0268 >achowr > ,  but I cannot <3808 lo> > perceive 
<3045 yada< > him : 

 : 9 On the left <8040 s@mo>wl > hand <8040 s@mo>wl > ,  where 
he doth work <6213 <asah > ,  but I cannot <3808 lo> > behold 
<2372 chazah >  [ him ]  : he hideth <5848 <ataph > himself on 
the right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn > ,  that I cannot 
<3808 lo> > see <7200 ra>ah >  [ him ]  : 

 : 10 But he knoweth <3045 yada< > the way <1870 derek > that I 
take <5978 <immad > :  [ when ]  he hath tried <0974 bachan > me 
,  I shall come <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > as gold 
<2091 zahab > . 

 : 11 My foot <7272 regel > hath held <0270 >achaz > his steps 
<0838 >ashur > ,  his way <1870 derek > have I kept <8104 shamar 
> ,  and not declined <5186 natah > . 

 : 12 Neither <3808 lo> > have I gone <4185 muwsh > back <4185 
muwsh > from the commandment <4687 mitsvah > of his lips <8193 
saphah > ;  I have esteemed <6845 tsaphan > the words <0561 
>emer > of his mouth <6310 peh > more than my necessary <2706 
choq >  [ food ]  . 

 : 13 .  But he  [ is ]  in one <0259 >echad >  [ mind ]  ,  and 
who <4310 miy > can turn <7725 shuwb > him ?  and  [ what ]  his 
soul <5315 nephesh > desireth <0183 >avah > ,  even  [ that ]  
he doeth <6213 <asah > . 

 : 14 For he performeth <7999 shalam >  [ the thing that is ]  
appointed <2706 choq > for me : and many <7227 rab > such <2007 
hennah >  [ things are ]  with him . 

 : 15 Therefore am I troubled <0926 bahal > at his presence 
<6440 paniym > : when I consider <0995 biyn > ,  I am afraid 
<6342 pachad > of him . 

 : 16 For God <0410 >el > maketh my heart <3820 leb > soft <7401 
rakak > ,  and the Almighty <7706 Shadday > troubleth <0926 
bahal > me : 

 : 17 Because <3588 kiy > I was not cut <6780 tsemach > off 
before <6440 paniym > the darkness <2822 choshek > ,   [ neither 
]  hath he covered <3680 kacah > the darkness <0652 >ophel > 
from my face <6440 paniym > . 

 : Job 24

 : 1 .  Why <4069 madduwa< > ,  seeing <7200 ra>ah > times <6256 
<eth > are not hidden <6845 tsaphan > from the Almighty <7706 
Shadday > ,  do they that know <5234 nakar > him not see <2372 
chazah > his days <3117 yowm > ? 

 : 2  [ Some ]  remove <5472 cuwg > the landmarks <1367 g@buwlah

<5739 <eder > ,  and feed <7462 ra<ah >  [ thereof ]  . 

 : 3 They drive <5090 nahag > away the ass <2543 chamowr > of 
the fatherless <3490 yathowm > ,  they take <2254 chabal > the 
widow s <0490 >almanah > ox <7794 showr > for a pledge <2254

 : 4 They turn <5186 natah > the needy <34> out of the way <1870

hide <2244> themselves together <3162 yachad > . 

 : 5 Behold <2005 hen > ,   [ as ]  wild <6501 pere> > asses 
<6501 pere> > in the desert <4057 midbar > ,  go <3318 yatsa> > 
they forth <3318 yatsa> > to their work <6467 po<al > ;  rising 
<7836 shachar > betimes <7836 shachar > for a prey <2964 tereph

 : 6 They reap <7114 qatsar >  [ every one ]  his corn <1098 
b@liyl > in the field <7704 sadeh > : and they gather <3953 
laqash > the vintage <3754 kerem > of the wicked <7563 rasha< > .
 

 : 7 They cause the naked <6174 <arowm > to lodge <3885 luwn > 
without <1097 b@liy > clothing <3830 l@buwsh > ,  that  [ they 
have ]  no <0369 >ayin > covering <3682 k@cuwth > in the cold 
<7135 qarah > . 

 : 8 They are wet <7372 ratab > with the showers <2230 zerem > 
of the mountains <2022 har > ,  and embrace <2263 chabaq > the 
rock <6697 tsuwr > for want <1097 b@liy > of a shelter <4268 
machaceh > . 

 : 9 They pluck <1497 gazal > the fatherless <3490 yathowm > 
from the breast <7699 shad > ,  and take <2254 chabal > a pledge 
<2254 chabal > of the poor <6041 <aniy > . 

 : 10 They cause  [ him ]  to go <1980 halak > naked <6174 
<arowm > without <1097 b@liy > clothing <3830 l@buwsh > ,  and 
they take <5375 nasa> > away the sheaf <6016 <omer >  [ from ]  
the hungry <7456 ra<eb > ; 

 : 11  [ Which ]  make oil <6671 tsahar > within <0996 beyn >

 : 12 Men <4962 math > groan <5008 na>aq > from out of the city 
<5892 <iyr > ,  and the soul <5315 nephesh > of the wounded 
<2491 chalal > crieth <7768 shava< > out : yet God <0433

 : 13 .  They are of those that rebel <4775 marad > against the 
light <0216 >owr > ;  they know <5234 nakar > not the ways <1870

 : 14 The murderer <7523 ratsach > rising <7925 shakam > with 
the light <0216 >owr > killeth <6991 qatal > the poor <6041 
<aniy > and needy <34> ,  and in the night <3915 layil > is as a

 : 15 The eye <5869 <ayin > also of the adulterer <5003 na>aph > 
waiteth <8104 shamar > for the twilight <5399 nesheph > ,  
saying <0559 >amar > ,  No <3808 lo> > eye <5869 <ayin > shall 
see <7789 shuwr > me : and disguiseth <5643 cether >  [ his ]

 : 16 In the dark <2822 choshek > they dig <2864 chathar > 
through <2864 chathar > houses <1004 bayith > ,   [ which ]  
they had marked <2856 chatham > for themselves in the daytime 
<3119 yowmam > : they know <3045 yada< > not the light <0216

 : 17 For the morning <1242 boqer >  [ is ]  to them even as the

 : 20 The womb <7358 rechem > shall forget <7911 shakach > him ;

 : 24 They are exalted <7426 ramam > for a little <4592 m@<at >

low <4355 makak > ;  they are taken <7092 qaphats > out of the

 : 1 .  Then answered <6030 <anah > Bildad <1085 Bildad > the 
Shuhite <7747 Shuchiy > ,  and said <0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 Dominion <4910 mashal > and fear <6343 pachad >  [ are ]

it shineth <0166 >ahal > not ;  yea ,  the stars <3556 kowkab >

 : Job 26

 : 1 .  But Job <0347 >Iyowb > answered <6030 <anah > and said 
<0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 How <4100 mah > hast thou helped <5826 <azar >  [ him that

savest <3467 yasha< > thou the arm <2220 z@rowa< >  [ that hath

<4405 millah > ?  and whose <4310 miy > spirit <5397 n@shamah >

 : 5 .  Dead <7496 rapha> >  [ things ]  are formed <2342 chuwl

<6440 paniym > him ,  and destruction <11> hath no <0369 >ayin > 
covering <3682 k@cuwth > . 

 : 7 He stretcheth <5186 natah > out the north <6828 tsaphown > 
over <5921 <al > the empty <8414 tohuw > place <8414 tohuw > ,   
[ and ]  hangeth <8518 talah > the earth <0776 >erets > upon 
nothing <1099 b@liymah > . 

 : 8 He bindeth <6887 tsarar > up the waters <4325 mayim > in 
his thick clouds <5645 <ab > ;  and the cloud <6051 <anan > is 
not rent <1234 baqa< > under <5921 <al > them . 

 : 9 He holdeth <0270 >achaz > back the face <6440 paniym > of 
his throne <3678 kicce> > ,   [ and ]  spreadeth <6576 parshez > 
his cloud <6051 <anan > upon it . 

 : 10 He hath compassed <2328 chuwg > the waters <4325 mayim > 
with bounds <2706 choq > ,  until <5704 <ad > the day <0216 >owr

 : 11 The pillars <5982 <ammuwd > of heaven <8064 shamayim > 
tremble <7322 ruwph > and are astonished <8539 tamahh > at his 
reproof <1606 g@<arah > . 

 : 12 He divideth <7280 raga< > the sea <3220 yam > with his 
power <3581 koach > ,  and by his understanding <8394 tabuwn > 
he smiteth <4272 machats > through the proud <7293 rahab > . 

 : 13 By his spirit <7307 ruwach > he hath garnished <8235

 : Job 27

 : 1 .  Moreover Job <0347 >Iyowb > continued <3254 yacaph > his 
parable <4912 mashal > ,  and said <0559 >amar > , 

 : 2  [ As ]  God <0410 >el > liveth <2416 chay > ,   [ who ]  
hath taken <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > my judgment <4941

vexed <4843 marar > my soul <5315 nephesh > ; 

 : 3 All <3605 kol > the while <5750 <owd > my breath <5397 
n@shamah >  [ is ]  in me ,  and the spirit <7307 ruwach > of 
God <0433 >elowahh >  [ is ]  in my nostrils <0639 >aph > ; 

 : 4 My lips <8193 saphah > shall not speak <1696 dabar > 
wickedness <5766 <evel > ,  nor <0518 >im > my tongue <3956 
lashown > utter <1897 hagah > deceit <7423 r@miyah > . 

 : 5 God forbid <2486 chaliylah > that I should justify <6663 
tsadaq > you : till <5704 <ad > I die <1478 gava< > I will not 
remove <5493 cuwr > mine integrity <8538 tummah > from me . 

 : 6 My righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > I hold <2388 chazaq > 
fast ,  and will not let it go <7503 raphah > : my heart <3824 
lebab > shall not reproach <2778 charaph .  >  [ me ]  so <3605

 : 7 .  Let mine enemy <0341 >oyeb > be as the wicked <7563 
rasha< > ,  and he that riseth <6965 quwm > up against me as the 
unrighteous <5767 <avval > . 

 : 8 For what <4100 mah >  [ is ]  the hope <8615 tiqvah > of 
the hypocrite <2611 chaneph > ,  though <3588 kiy > he hath 
gained <1214 batsa< > ,  when <3588 kiy > God <0433 >elowahh > 
taketh <7953 shalah > away <7953 shalah > his soul <5315 nephesh

 : 9 Will God <0401 >Ukal > hear <8085 shama< > his cry <6818 
tsa<aqah > when <3588 kiy > trouble <6869 tsarah > cometh <0935 
bow> > upon him ? 

 : 10 Will he delight <6026 <anag > himself in the Almighty 
<7706 Shadday > ?  will he always call <7121 qara> > upon God 
<0433 >elowahh > ? 

 : 11 .  I will teach <3384 yarah > you by the hand <3027 yad > 
of God <0410 >el > :  [ that ]  which <0834 >aher >  [ is ]  
with the Almighty <7706 Shadday > will I not conceal <3582 
kachad > . 

 : 12 Behold <2005 hen > ,  all <3605 kol > ye yourselves have 
seen <2372 chazah >  [ it ]  ;  why <4100 mah > then are ye thus 
<2088 zeh > altogether vain <1891 habal > ? 

 : 13 This <2088 zeh >  [ is ]  the portion <2506 cheleq > of a 
wicked <7563 rasha< > man <0120 >adam > with God <0410 >el > ,  
and the heritage <5159 nachalah > of oppressors <6184 <ariyts > ,
   [ which ]  they shall receive <3947 laqach > of the Almighty 
<7706 Shadday > . 

 : 14 If <0518 >im > his children <1121 ben > be multiplied 
<7235 rabah > ,   [ it is ]  for the sword <2719 chereb > : and 
his offspring <6631 tse>etsa> > shall not be satisfied <7646 
saba< > with bread <3899 lechem > . 

 : 15 Those that remain <8300 sariyd > of him shall be buried 
<6912 qabar > in death <4194 maveth > : and his widows <0490 
>almanah > shall not weep <1058 bakah > . 

 : 16 Though <0518 >im > he heap <6651 tsabar > up silver <3701 
keceph > as the dust <6083 <aphar > ,  and prepare <3559 kuwn > 
raiment <4403 malbuwsh > as the clay <2563 chomer > ; 

 : 17 He may prepare <3559 kuwn >  [ it ]  ,  but the just <6662 
tsaddiyq > shall put <3847 labash >  [ it ]  on ,  and the 
innocent <5355 naqiy > shall divide <2505 chalaq > the silver 
<3701 keceph > . 

 : 18 He buildeth <1129 banah > his house <1004 bayith > as a 
moth <6211 <ash > ,  and as a booth <5521 cukkah >  [ that ]  
the keeper <5341 natsar > maketh <6213 <asah > . 

 : 19 The rich <6223 <ashiyr > man shall lie <7901 shakab > down 
<7901 shakab > ,  but he shall not be gathered <0622 >acaph > : 
he openeth <6491 paqach > his eyes <5869 <ayin > ,  and he  [ is 
]  not . 

 : 20 Terrors <1091 ballahah > take <5381 nasag > hold <5381 
nasag > on him as waters <4325 mayim > ,  a tempest <5492 
cuwphah > stealeth <1589 ganab > him away in the night <3915 
layil > . 

 : 21 The east <6921 qadiym > wind carrieth <5375 nasa> > him 
away ,  and he departeth <3212 yalak > : and as a storm hurleth 
<8175 sa<ar > him out of his place <4725 maqowm > . 

 : 22 For  [ God ]  shall cast <7993 shalak > upon him ,  and 
not spare <2550 chamal > : he would fain <1272 barach > flee 
<1272 barach > out of his hand <3027 yad > . 

 : 23  [ Men ]  shall clap <5606 caphaq > their hands <3709 kaph

his place <4725 maqowm > . 

 : Job 28

 : 1 .  Surely <3588 kiy > there is a vein <4161 mowtsa> > for 
the silver <3701 keceph > ,  and a place <4725 maqowm > for gold 
<2091 zahab >  [ where ]  they fine <2212 zaqaq >  [ it ]  .

earth <6083 <aphar > ,  and brass <5154 n@chuwshah >  [ is ]  
molten <6694 tsuwq >  [ out of ]  the stone <68> . 

 : 3 He setteth <7760 suwm > an end <7093 qets > to darkness 
<2822 choshek > ,  and searcheth <2713 chaqar > out all <3605

<0652 >ophel > ,  and the shadow <6757 tsalmaveth > of death 
<6757 tsalmaveth > . 

 : 4 The flood <5158 nachal > breaketh <6555 parats > out from 
the inhabitant <1481 guwr > ;   [ even the waters ]  forgotten 
<7911 shakach > of the foot <7272 regel > : they are dried <1809

 : 5  [ As for ]  the earth <0776 >erets > ,  out of it cometh 
<3318 yatsa> > bread <3899 lechem > : and under <8478 tachath > 
it is turned <2015 haphak > up as it were fire <0784 >esh > . 

 : 6 The stones <68> of it  [ are ]  the place <4725 maqowm > of 
sapphires <5601 cappiyr > : and it hath dust <6083 <aphar > of 
gold <2091 zahab > . 

 : 7  [ There is ]  a path <5410 nathiyb > which no <3808 lo> > 
fowl <5861 <ayit > knoweth <3045 yada< > ,  and which the

trodden <1869 darak > it ,  nor <3808 lo> > the fierce <7826 
shachal > lion <7826 shachal > passed <5710 <adah > by it . 

 : 9 He putteth <7971 shalach > forth <7971 shalach > his hand 
<3027 yad > upon the rock <2496 challamiysh > ;  he overturneth 
<2015 haphak > the mountains <2022 har > by the roots <8328

 : 10 He cutteth <1234 baqa< > out rivers <2975 y@<or > among 
the rocks <6697 tsuwr > ;  and his eye <5869 <ayin > seeth <7200 
ra>ah > every <3605 kol > precious <3366 y@qar > thing . 

 : 11 He bindeth <2280 chabash > the floods <5104 nahar > from

<8587 ta<alummah > bringeth <3318 yatsa> > he forth <3318 yatsa>

 : 12 But where <0370 >aiyn > shall wisdom <2451 chokmah > be

maqowm > of understanding <0998 biynah > ? 

 : 13 Man <0582 >enowsh > knoweth <3045 yada< > not the price

 [ It is ]  not with me .

 : 16 It cannot <3808 lo> > be valued <5541 calah > with the 
gold <3800 kethem > of Ophir <0211 >Owphiyr > ,  with the 
precious <3368 yaqar > onyx <7718 shoham > ,  or the sapphire 
<5601 cappiyr > . 

 : 17 The gold <2091 zahab > and the crystal <2137 z@kuwkiyth >

 : Job 29

 : 1 .  Moreover Job <0347 >Iyowb > continued <3254 yacaph > his 
parable <4912 mashal > ,  and said <0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 Oh that I were as  [ in ]  months <3391 yerach > past <6924 
qedem > ,  as  [ in ]  the days <3117 yowm >  [ when ]  God 
<0433 >elowahh > preserved <8104 shamar > me ; 

 : 3 When his candle <5216 niyr > shined <1984 halal > upon my 
head <7218 ro>sh > ,   [ and when ]  by his light <0216 >owr > I 
walked <3212 yalak >  [ through ]  darkness <2822 choshek > ; 

 : 4 As I was in the days <3117 yowm > of my youth <2779 choreph

yet <5750 <owd > with me ,   [ when ]  my children <5288 na<ar > 
 [ were ]  about <5439 cabiyb > me ; 

 : 6 When I washed <7364 rachats > my steps <1978 haliyk > with 
butter <2529 chem>ah > ,  and the rock <6697 tsuwr > poured 
<6694 tsuwq > me out rivers <6388 peleg > of oil <8081 shemen > ;
 

 : 7 .  When I went <3318 yatsa> > out to the gate <8179 sha<ar

prepared <3559 kuwn > my seat <4186 mowshab > in the street 
<7339 r@chob > ! 

 : 8 The young <5288 na<ar > men saw <7200 ra>ah > me ,  and hid 
<2244> themselves : and the aged <2205 zaqen > arose <6965 quwm

 : 9 The princes <8269 sar > refrained <6113 <atsar > talking 
<4405 millah > ,  and laid <7760 suwm >  [ their ]  hand <3709

 : 10 The nobles <5057 nagiyd > held <2244> their peace <6963

to the roof <2441 chek > of their mouth <2441 chek > . 

 : 11 When <3588 kiy > the ear <0241 >ozen > heard <8085 shama<

eye <5869 <ayin > saw <7200 ra>ah >  [ me ]  ,  it gave witness 
<5749 <uwd > to me : 

 : 12 Because <3588 kiy > I delivered <4422 malat > the poor 
<6041 <aniy > that cried <7768 shava< > ,  and the fatherless 
<3490 yathowm > ,  and  [ him that had ]  none <3808 lo> > to 
help <5826 <azar > him . 

 : 13 The blessing <1293 B@rakah > of him that was ready to 
perish <6> came <0935 bow> > upon me : and I caused the widow s 
<0490 >almanah > heart <3820 leb > to sing <7442 ranan > for joy 
<7442 ranan > . 

 : 14 I put <3847 labash > on righteousness <6664 tsedeq > ,  
and it clothed <3847 labash > me : my judgment <4941 mishpat >  
[ was ]  as a robe <4598 m@<iyl > and a diadem <6797 tsaniyph > .
 

 : 15 I was eyes <5869 <ayin > to the blind <5787 <ivver > ,  
and feet <7272 regel >  [ was ]  I to the lame <6455 picceach > .
 

 : 16 I  [ was ]  a father <1> to the poor <34> : and the cause 
<7379 riyb >  [ which ]  I knew <3045 yada< > not I searched 
<2713 chaqar > out . 

 : 17 And I brake <7665 shabar > the jaws <4973 m@thall@<ah > of 
the wicked <5767 <avval > ,  and plucked <7993 shalak > the 
spoil <2964 tereph > out of his teeth <8127 shen > . 

 : 18 .  Then I said <0559 >amar > ,  I shall die <1478 gava< > 
in my nest <7064 qen > ,  and I shall multiply <7235 rabah >  [ 
my ]  days <3117 yowm > as the sand <2344 chowl > . 

 : 19 My root <8328 sheresh >  [ was ]  spread <6605 pathach > 
out by the waters <4325 mayim > ,  and the dew <2919 tal > lay 
<3885 luwn > all <3885 luwn > night upon my branch <7105 qatsiyr

 : 20 My glory <3519 kabowd >  [ was ]  fresh <2319 chadash > in 
me ,  and my bow <7198 qesheth > was renewed <2498 chalaph > in 
my hand <3027 yad > . 

 : 21 Unto me  [ men ]  gave ear <8085 shama< > ,  and waited 
<3176 yachal > ,  and kept silence <1826 damam > at <3926 l@mow

 : 22 After <0310 >achar > my words <1697 dabar > they spake not 
again <3138 yowreh > ;  and my speech <4405 millah > dropped 
<5197 nataph > upon them . 

 : 23 And they waited <3176 yachal > for me as for the rain 
<4306 matar > ;  and they opened <6473 pa<ar > their mouth <6310 
peh > wide  [ as ]  for the latter <4456 malqowsh > rain <4456 
malqowsh > . 

 : 24  [ If ]  I laughed <7832 sachaq > on <0413 >el > them ,  
they believed <0539 >aman >  [ it ]  not ;  and the light <0216 
>owr > of my countenance <6440 paniym > they cast <5307 naphal > 
not down <5307 naphal > . 

 : 25 I chose <0977 bachar > out their way <1870 derek > ,  and 
sat <3427 yashab > chief <7218 ro>sh > ,  and dwelt <7931 shakan

[ that ]  comforteth <5162 nacham > the mourners <57> . 

 : Job 30

 : 1 .  But now <6258 <attah >  [ they that are ]  younger than 
I have me in derision <7832 sachaq > ,  whose <0834 >aher > 
fathers <1> I would have disdained <3988 ma>ac > to have set 
<7896 shiyth > with the dogs <3611 keleb > of my flock <6629

 : 2 Yea <1571 gam > ,  whereto <4100 mah >  [ might ]  the 
strength <3581 koach > of their hands <3027 yad >  [ profit ]  
me ,  in whom <5921 <al > old age <3624 kelach > was perished 
<6> ? 

 : 3 For want <2639 checer > and famine <3720 kaphan >  [ they 
were ]  solitary <1565 galmuwd > ;  fleeing <6207 <araq > into 
the wilderness <6723 tsiyah > in former <0570 >emesh > time 
<0570 >emesh > desolate <7722 show> > and waste <4875 m@show>ah

 : 4 Who cut <6998 qataph > up mallows <4408 malluwach > by the 
bushes <7880 siyach > ,  and juniper <7574 rethem > roots <8328 
sheresh >  [ for ]  their meat <3899 lechem > . 

 : 5 They were driven <1644 garash > forth from among <1460 gev

them as  [ after <5921 <al > ]  a thief <1590 gannab > ;  ) 

 : 6 To dwell <7931 shakan > in the clifts <6178 <aruwts > of 
the valleys <5158 nachal > ,   [ in ]  caves <2356 chowr > of 
the earth <6083 <aphar > ,  and  [ in ]  the rocks <3710 keph > .
 

 : 7 Among <0996 beyn > the bushes <7880 siyach > they brayed 
<5101 nahaq > ;  under <8478 tachath > the nettles <2738 charuwl 
> they were gathered <5596 caphach > together . 

 : 8  [ They were ]  children <1121 ben > of fools <5036 nabal > 
,  yea <1571 gam > ,  children <1121 ben > of base men : they 
were viler <5217 naka> > than <4480 min > the earth <0776 >erets

 : 9 And now <6258 <attah > am I their song <5058 n@giynah > ,  
yea ,  I am their byword <4405 millah > . 

 : 10 They abhor <8581 ta<ab > me ,  they flee <7368 rachaq > 
far <7350 rachowq > from me ,  and spare <2820 chasak > not to 
spit <7536 roq > in my face <6440 paniym > . 

 : 11 Because <3588 kiy > he hath loosed <6605 pathach > my cord 
<3499 yether > ,  and afflicted <6031 <anah > me ,  they have 
also let loose <7971 shalach > the bridle <7448 recen > before 
<6440 paniym > me . 

 : 12 Upon  [ my ]  right <3225 yamiyn >  [ hand <3225 yamiyn > 
]  rise <6965 quwm > the youth <6526 pirchach > ;  they push 
<7971 shalach > away my feet <7272 regel > ,  and they raise 
<5549 calal > up against <5921 <al > me the ways <0734 >orach > 
of their destruction <0343 >eyd > . 

 : 13 They mar <5420 nathac > my path <5410 nathiyb > ,  they 
set forward <3276 ya<al > my calamity <1942 havvah > ,  they 
have no <3808 lo> > helper <5826 <azar > . 

 : 14 They came <0857 >athah >  [ upon me ]  as a wide <7342 
rachab > breaking <6556 perets > in  [ of waters ]  : in the 
desolation <7722 show> > they rolled <1556 galal > themselves  [ 
upon me ]  . 

 : 15 .  Terrors <1091 ballahah > are turned <2015 haphak > upon 
me : they pursue <7291 radaph > my soul <5082 n@diybah > as the 
wind <7307 ruwach > : and my welfare <3444 y@shuw<ah > passeth 
<5674 <abar > away as a cloud <5645 <ab > . 

 : 16 And now <6258 <attah > my soul <5315 nephesh > is poured 
<8210 shaphak >out upon me ;  the days <3117 yowm > of 
affliction <6040 <oniy > have taken <0270 >achaz > hold <0270 
>achaz > upon me . 

 : 17 My bones <6106 <etsem > are pierced <5365 naqar > in me in 
the night <3915 layil > season : and my sinews <6207 <araq > 
take <7901 shakab > no <3808 lo> > rest <7901 shakab > . 

 : 18 By the great <7227 rab > force <3581 koach >  [ of my 
disease ]  is my garment <3830 l@buwsh > changed <2664 chaphas > 
: it bindeth <0247 >azar > me about <0247 >azar > as the collar 
<6310 peh > of my coat <3801 k@thoneth > . 

 : 19 He hath cast <3384 yarah > me into the mire <2563 chomer > 
,  and I am become <4911 mashal > like <4911 mashal > dust <6083 
<aphar > and ashes <0665 >epher > . 

 : 20 I cry <7768 shava< > unto thee ,  and thou dost not hear 
<6030 <anah > me : I stand <5975 <amad > up ,  and thou 
regardest <0995 biyn > me  [ not ]  . 

 : 21 Thou art become <2015 haphak > cruel <0393 >akzar > to me :
 with thy strong <6108 <otsem > hand <3027 yad > thou opposest 
<7852 satam > thyself against me . 

 : 22 Thou liftest <5375 nasa> > me up to the wind <7307 ruwach 
> ;  thou causest me to ride <7392 rakab >  [ upon it ]  ,  and 
dissolvest <4127 muwg > my substance <7738 shavah > . 

 : 23 For I know <3045 yada< >  [ that ]  thou wilt bring <7725 
shuwb > me  [ to ]  death <4194 maveth > ,  and  [ to ]  the 
house <1004 bayith > appointed <4150 mow<ed > for all <3605 kol

 : 24 Howbeit he will not stretch <7971 shalach > out  [ his ]  
hand <3027 yad > to the grave <1164 b@<iy > ,  though <0518 >im 
> they cry <7769 shuwa< > in his destruction <6365 piyd > . 

 : 25 Did not I weep <1058 bakah > for him that was in trouble ? 
 was  [ not ]  my soul <5315 nephesh > grieved <5701 <agam > for 
the poor <34> ? 

 : 26 When <3588 kiy > I looked <6960 qavah > for good <2896 
towb > ,  then evil <7451 ra< > came <0935 bow> >  [ unto me ]  :
 and when I waited <3176 yachal > for light <0216 >owr > ,  
there came <0935 bow> > darkness <0652 >ophel > . 

 : 27 My bowels <4578 me<ah > boiled <7570 rathach > ,  and 
rested <1826 damam > not : the days <3117 yowm > of affliction 
<6040 <oniy > prevented <6923 qadam > me . 

 : 28 I went <1980 halak > mourning <6937 qadar > without <3808 
lo> > the sun <2535 chammah > : I stood <6965 quwm > up ,   [ 
and ]  I cried <7768 shava< > in the congregation <6951 qahal > .
 

 : 29 I am a brother <0251 >ach > to dragons <8577 tanniyn > ,  
and a companion <7453 rea< > to owls . 

 : 30 My skin <5785 <owr > is black <7835 shachar > upon me ,  
and my bones <6106 <etsem > are burned <2787 charar > with heat 
<2721 choreb > . 

 : 31 My harp <3658 kinnowr > also is  [ turned ]  to mourning 
<60> ,  and my organ <5748 <uwgab > into the voice <6963 qowl > 
of them that weep <1058 bakah > . 

 : Job 31

 : 1 .  I made <3772 karath > a covenant <1285 b@riyth > with 
mine eyes <5869 <ayin > ;  why <4100 mah > then should I think 
<0995 biyn > upon a maid <1330 b@thuwlah > ? 

 : 2 For what <4100 mah > portion <2506 cheleq > of God <0433 
>elowahh >  [ is there ]  from above <4605 ma<al > ?  and  [ 
what ]  inheritance <5159 nachalah > of the Almighty <7706 
Shadday > from on high <4791 marowm > ? 

 : 3  [ Is ]  not destruction <0343 >eyd > to the wicked <5767 
<avval > ?  and a strange <5235 neker >  [ punishment ]  to the 
workers <6466 pa<al > of iniquity <0205 >aven > ? 

 : 4 Doth not he see <7200 ra>ah > my ways <1870 derek > ,  and 
count <5608 caphar > all <3605 kol > my steps <6806 tsa<ad > ? 

 : 5 If <0518 >im > I have walked <1980 halak > with vanity 
<7723 shav> > ,  or if my foot <7272 regel > hath hasted <2363 
chuwsh > to deceit <4820 mirmah > ; 

 : 6 Let me be weighed <8254 shaqal > in an even <6664 tsedeq > 
balance <3976mo>zen > ,  that God <0433 >elowahh > may know 
<3045 yada< > mine integrity <8538 tummah > . 

 : 7 If <0518 >im > my step <0838 >ashur > hath turned <5186 
natah > out of the way <1870 derek > ,  and mine heart <3820 leb

<ayin > ,  and if any blot <3971 m>uwm > hath cleaved <1692 
dabaq > to mine hands <3709 kaph > ; 

 : 8  [ Then ]  let me sow <2232 zara< > ,  and let another 
<0312 >acher > eat <0398 >akal > ;  yea ,  let my offspring 
<6631 tse>etsa> > be rooted <8327 sharash > out . 

 : 9 .  If <0518 >im > mine heart <3820 leb > have been deceived 
<6601 pathah > by a woman <0802 >ishshah > ,  or  [ if ]  I have 
laid wait <0693 >arab > at <5921 <al > my neighbour s <7453 rea<

 : 10  [ Then ]  let my wife <0802 >ishshah > grind <2912 tachan

bow <3766 kara< > down <3766 kara< > upon her . 

 : 11 For this <1931 huw> >  [ is ]  an heinous <2154 zimmah > 
crime <2154 zimmah > ;  yea ,  it  [ is ]  an iniquity <5771 
<avon >  [ to be punished by ]  the judges <6414 paliyl > . 

 : 12 For it  [ is ]  a fire <0784 >esh >  [ that ]  consumeth 
<0398 >akal > to destruction <11> ,  and would root <8327 
sharash > out all <3605 kol > mine increase <8393 t@buw>ah > . 

 : 13 If <0518 >im > I did despise <3988 ma>ac > the cause <4941 
mishpat > of my manservant <5650 <ebed > or of my maidservant 
<0519 >amah > ,  when they contended <7378 riyb > with me ; 

 : 14 What <4100 mah > then shall I do when <3588 kiy > God 
<0410 >el > riseth <6965 quwm > up ?  and when <3588 kiy > he 
visiteth <6485 paqad > ,  what <4100 mah > shall I answer <7725 
shuwb > him ? 

 : 15 Did not he that made <6213 <asah > me in the womb <0990 
beten > make <6213 <asah > him ?  and did not one <0259 >echad > 
fashion <3559 kuwn > us in the womb <7358 rechem > ? 

 : 16 .  If <0518 >im > I have withheld <4513 mana< > the poor 
<1800 dal > from  [ their ]  desire <2656 chephets > ,  or have 
caused the eyes <5869 <ayin > of the widow <0490 >almanah > to 
fail <3615 kalah > ;

eaten <0398 >akal > thereof ; 

 : 18  ( For from my youth <5271 na<uwr > he was brought <1431

guided <5148 nachah > her from my mother s <0517 >em > womb

 : 19 If <0518 >im > I have seen <7200 ra>ah > any perish <6>

<1288 barak > me ,  and  [ if ]  he were  [ not ]  warmed <2552 
chamam > with the fleece <1488 gez > of my sheep <3532 kebes > ; 

 : 21 If <0518 >im > I have lifted <5130 nuwph > up my hand

 when <3588 kiy > I saw <7200 ra>ah > my help <5833 <ezrah > in

mine arm <0248 >ezrowa< > be broken <7665 shabar > from the bone 
<7070 qaneh > . 

 : 23 For destruction <0343 >eyd >  [ from ]  God <0410 >el >  [ 
was ]  a terror <6343 pachad > to me ,  and by reason of his 
highness <7613 s@>eth > I could <3201 yakol > not endure . 

 : 24 .  If <0518 >im > I have made <7760 suwm > gold <2091

the fine gold <3800 kethem > ,   [ Thou art ]  my confidence

: for I should have denied <3584 kachash > the God <0410 >el >  
[ that is ]  above <4605 ma<al > .

 : 32 The stranger <1616 ger > did not lodge <3885 luwn > in the 
street <2351 chuwts > :  [ but ]  I opened <6605 pathach > my

 : 35 Oh that one would hear <8085 shama< > me !  behold <2005

<7706 Shadday > would answer <6030 <anah > me ,  and  [ that ]  
mine adversary had written <3789 kathab > a book <5612 cepher > .
 

 : 36 Surely I would take <5375 nasa> > it upon my shoulder 
<7926 sh@kem > ,   [ and ]  bind <6029 <anad > it  [ as ]  a

The words <1697 dabar > of Job <0347 >Iyowb > are ended <8552

 : Job 32

 : 1 .  So these <0428 >el - leh > three <7969 shalowsh > men 
<0582 >enowsh > ceased <7673 shabath > to answer <6030 <anah > 
Job <0347 >Iyowb > ,  because <3588 kiy > he  [ was ]  righteous 
<6662 tsaddiyq > in his own eyes <5869 <ayin > . 

 : 2 Then was kindled <2734 charah > the wrath <0639 >aph > of 
Elihu <0453 >Eliyhuw > the son <1121 ben > of Barachel <1292 
Barak>el > the Buzite <0940 Buwziy > ,  of the kindred <4940 
mishpachah > of Ram <7410 Ram > : against Job <0347 >Iyowb > was 
his wrath <0639 >aph > kindled <2734 charah > ,  because <5921 
<al > he justified <6663 tsadaq > himself <5315 nephesh > rather 
than <4480 min > God <0430 >elohiym > . 

 : 3 Also against his three <7969 shalowsh > friends <7453 rea<

they had found <4672 matsa> > no <3808 lo> > answer <4617

<0347 >Iyowb > . 

 : 4 Now Elihu <0453 >Eliyhuw > had waited <2442 chakah > till 
Job <0347 >Iyowb > had spoken <1697 dabar > ,  because <3588 kiy

 : 5 When Elihu <0453 >Eliyhuw > saw <7200 ra>ah > that  [ there 
was ]  no <0369 >ayin > answer <4617 ma<aneh > in the mouth 
<6310 peh > of  [ these ]  three <7969 shalowsh > men <0582 
>enowsh > ,  then his wrath <0639 >aph > was kindled <2734 
charah > . 

 : 6 .  And Elihu <0453 >Eliyhuw > the son <1121 ben > of 
Barachel <1292 Barak>el > the Buzite <0940 Buwziy > answered 
<6030 <anah > and said <0559 >amar > ,  I  [ am ]  young ,  and 
ye  [ are ]  very <3453 yashiysh > old <3453 yashiysh > ;  
wherefore I was afraid <2119 zachal > ,  and durst <3372 yare> > 
not shew <2331 chavah > you mine opinion <1843 dea< > . 

 : 7 I said <0559 >amar > ,  Days <3117 yowm > should speak 
<1696 dabar > ,  and multitude <7230 rob > of years <8141 shaneh 
> should teach <3045 yada< > wisdom <2451 chokmah > . 

 : 8 But  [ there is ]  a spirit <7307 ruwach > in man <0582 
>enowsh > : and the inspiration <5397 n@shamah > of the Almighty 
<7706 Shadday > giveth them understanding <0995 biyn > . 

 : 9 Great <7227 rab > men are not  [ always ]  wise <2449 
chakam > : neither do the aged <2205 zaqen > understand <0995 
biyn > judgment <4941 mishpat > . 

 : 10 Therefore <3651 ken > I said <0559 >amar > ,  Hearken 
<8085 shama< > to me ;  I also <0637 >aph > will shew <2331 
chavah > mine opinion <1843 dea< > . 

 : 11 Behold <2005 hen > ,  I waited <3176 yachal > for your 
words <1697 dabar > ;  I gave ear <0238 >azan > to your reasons 
<8394 tabuwn > ,  whilst <5704 <ad > ye searched <2713 chaqar > 
out what to say <4405 millah > . 

 : 12 Yea ,  I attended <0995 biyn > unto you ,  and ,  behold 
<2009 hinneh > ,   [ there was ]  none <0369 >ayin > of you that 
convinced <3198 yakach > Job <0347 >Iyowb > ,   [ or ]  that 
answered <6030 <anah > his words <0561 >emer > : 

 : 13 Lest <6435 pen > ye should say <0559 >amar > ,  We have 
found <4672 matsa> > out wisdom <2451 chokmah > : God <0410 >el

 : 14 Now he hath not directed <6186 <arak >  [ his ]  words 
<4405 millah > against <0413 >el > me : neither <3808 lo> > will 
I answer <7725 shuwb > him with your speeches <0561 >emer > . 

 : 15 .  They were amazed <2865 chathath > ,  they answered 
<6030 <anah > no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > : they left <6275 
<athaq > off speaking <4405 millah > . 

 : 16 When I had waited <3176 yachal > ,   ( for they spake 
<1696 dabar > not ,  but stood <5975 <amad > still <5975 <amad > 
,   [ and ]  answered <6030 <anah > no <3808 lo> > more <5750 
<owd > ;  ) 

 : 17  [ I said ]  ,  I will answer <6030 <anah > also <0637 
>aph > my part <2506 cheleq > ,  I also <0637 >aph > will shew 
<2331 chavah > mine opinion <1843 dea< > . 

 : 18 For I am full <4390 male> > of matter <4405 millah > ,  
the spirit <7307 ruwach > within <0990 beten > me constraineth 
<6693 tsuwq > me . 

 : 19 Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  my belly <0990 beten >  [ is ]  
as wine <3196 yayin >  [ which ]  hath no <3808 lo> > vent <6605 
pathach > ;  it is ready to burst <1234 baqa< > like new <2319 
chadash > bottles <0178 >owb > . 

 : 20 I will speak <1696 dabar > ,  that I may be refreshed 
<7304 ravach > : I will open <6605 pathach > my lips <8193 
saphah > and answer <6030 <anah > . 

 : 21 Let me not ,  I pray <4994 na> > you ,  accept <5375 nasa> 
> any man s <0376 >iysh > person <6440 paniym > ,  neither <3808 
lo> > let me give <1478 gava< > flattering <3665 kana< > titles 
unto man <0120 >adam > . 

 : 22 For I know <3045 yada< > not to give flattering <3665 
kana< > titles ;   [ in so doing ]  my maker <6213 <asah > would 
soon <4592 m@<at > take <5375 nasa> > me away . 

 : Job 33

 : 1 .  Wherefore <0199 >uwlam > ,  Job <0347 >Iyowb > ,  I pray 
<4994 na> > thee ,  hear <8085 shama< > my speeches <4405 millah

 : 2 Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  now <4994 na> > I have opened 
<6605 pathach > my mouth <6310 peh > ,  my tongue <3956 lashown

 : 3 My words <0561 >emer >  [ shall be of ]  the uprightness 
<3476 yosher > of my heart <3820 leb > : and my lips <8193 
saphah > shall utter <4448 malal > knowledge <1847 da<ath > 
clearly <1305 barar > . 

 : 4 The Spirit <7307 ruwach > of God <0410 >el > hath made 
<6213 <asah > me ,  and the breath <5397 n@shamah > of the 
Almighty <7706 Shadday > hath given me life <2421 chayah > . 

 : 5 If <0518 >im > thou canst <3201 yakol > answer <7725 shuwb

paniym > me ,  stand <3320 yatsab > up . 

 : 6 Behold <2005 hen > ,  I  [ am ]  according to thy wish 
<6310 peh > in God s <0410 >el > stead : I also <1571 gam > am 
formed <7169 qarats > out of the clay <2563 chomer > . 

 : 7 Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  my terror <0367 >eymah > shall not 
make thee afraid <1204 ba<ath > ,  neither <3808 lo> > shall my 
hand <0405 >ekeph > be heavy <3513 kabad > upon thee . 

 : 8 .  Surely <0389 >ak > thou hast spoken <0559 >amar > in 
mine hearing <0241 >ozen > ,  and I have heard <8085 shama< > 
the voice <6963 qowl > of  [ thy ]  words <4405 millah > ,   [ 
saying ]  , 

 : 9 I am clean <2134 zak > without <1097 b@liy > transgression 
<6588 pesha< > ,  I  [ am ]  innocent <2643 chaph > ;  neither 
<3808 lo> >  [ is there ]  iniquity <5771 <avon > in me . 

 : 10 Behold <2005 hen > ,  he findeth <4672 matsa> > occasions 
<8569 t@nuw>ah > against <5921 <al > me ,  he counteth <2803 
chashab > me for his enemy <0341 >oyeb > , 

 : 11 He putteth <7760 suwm > my feet <7272 regel > in the 
stocks <5465 cad > ,  he marketh <8104 shamar > all <3605 kol > 
my paths <0734 >orach > . 

 : 12 Behold <2005 hen > ,   [ in ]  this <2063 zo>th > thou art 
not just <6663 tsadaq > : I will answer <6030 <anah > thee ,  
that God <0433 >elowahh > is greater <7235 rabah > than man 
<0582 >enowsh > . 

 : 13 Why <4069 madduwa< > dost thou strive <7378 riyb > against 
<0413 >el > him ?  for he giveth not account <6030 <anah > of 
any <3605 kol > of his matters <1697 dabar > . 

 : 14 .  For God <0410 >el > speaketh <1696 dabar > once <0259 
>echad > ,  yea twice <8147 sh@nayim > ,   [ yet man ]  
perceiveth <7789 shuwr > it not . 

 : 15 In a dream <2472 chalowm > ,  in a vision <2384 chizzayown

falleth <5307 naphal > upon men <0582 >enowsh > ,  in 
slumberings <8572 t@nuwmah > upon the bed <4904 mishkab > ; 

 : 16 Then <0227 >az > he openeth <1540 galah > the ears <0241 
>ozen > of men <0582 >enowsh > ,  and sealeth <2856 chatham > 
their instruction <4561 mocar > , 

 : 17 That he may withdraw <5493 cuwr > man <0120 >adam >  [ 
from his ]  purpose<4639 ma<aseh > ,  and hide <3680 kacah > 
pride <1466 gevah > from man <1397 geber > . 

 : 18 He keepeth <2820 chasak > back <2820 chasak > his soul 
<5315 nephesh > from the pit <7845 shachath > ,  and his life 
<2416 chay > from perishing <5674 <abar > by the sword <7973 
shelach > . 

 : 19 .  He is chastened <3198 yakach > also with pain <4341 
mak>ob > upon his bed <4904 mishkab > ,  and the multitude <7379 
riyb > of his bones <6106 <etsem > with strong <0386 >eythan >  
[ pain ]  : 

 : 20 So that his life <2416 chay > abhorreth <2092 zaham > 
bread <3899 lechem > ,  and his soul <5315 nephesh > dainty 
<8378 ta>avah > meat <3978 ma>akal > . 

 : 21 His flesh <1320 basar > is consumed <3615 kalah > away ,  
that it cannot<3808 lo> > be seen <7210 ro>iy > ;  and his bones 
<6106 <etsem >  [ that ]  were not seen <7200 ra>ah > stick 
<8205 sh@phiy > out . 

 : 22 Yea ,  his soul <5315 nephesh > draweth near <7126 qarab > 
unto the grave <7845 shachath > ,  and his life <2416 chay > to 
the destroyers <4191 muwth > . 

 : 23 If <0518 >im > there be a messenger <4397 mal>ak > with 
him ,  aninterpreter <3887 luwts > ,  one <0259 >echad > among 
<4480 min > a thousand <0505 >eleph > ,  to shew <5046 nagad > 
unto man <0120 >adam > his uprightness <3476 yosher > : 

 : 24 Then he is gracious <2603 chanan > unto him ,  and saith 
<0559 >amar > ,  Deliver <6308 pada< > him from going <3381 
yarad > down <3381 yarad > to the pit <7845 shachath > : I have 
found <4672 matsa> > a ransom <3724 kopher > . 

 : 25 His flesh <1320 basar > shall be fresher <7375 ruwtaphash

to the days <3117 yowm > of his youth <5934 <aluwm > : 

 : 26 He shall pray <6279 <athar > unto God <0433 >elowahh > ,  
and he will be favourable <7520 ratsad > unto him : and he shall 
see <7200 ra>ah > his face <6440 paniym > with joy <8643 
t@ruw<ah > : for he will render <7725 shuwb > unto man <0582

 : 27 He looketh <7789 shuwr > upon men <0582 >enowsh > ,  and  
[ if any ]  say <0559 >amar > ,  I have sinned <2398 chata> > ,  
and perverted <5753 <avah >  [ that which was ]  right <3477 
yashar > ,  and it profited <7737 shavah > me not ; 

 : 28 He will deliver <6299 padah > his soul <5315 nephesh > 
from going <5674 <abar > into the pit <7845 shachath > ,  and 
his life <2416 chay > shall see <7200 ra>ah > the light <0216

 : 31 Mark <7181 qashab > well <7181 qashab > ,  O Job <0347

  for I desire <2654 chaphets > to justify <6663 tsadaq > thee .

hold <2790 charash > thy peace <2790 charash > ,  and I shall 
teach <0502 >alph > thee wisdom <2451 chokmah > . 

 : Job 34

 : 1 .  Furthermore Elihu <0453 >Eliyhuw > answered <6030 <anah

 : 2 Hear <8085 shama< > my words <4405 millah > ,  O ye wise 
<2450 chakam >  [ men ]  ;  and give ear <0238 >azan > unto me , 
 ye that have knowledge <3045 yada< > . 

 : 3 For the ear <0241 >ozen > trieth <0974 bachan > words <4405 
millah > ,  as the mouth <2441 chek > tasteth <2938 ta<am > meat 
<0398 >akal > . 

 : 4 Let us choose <0977 bachar > to us judgment <4941 mishpat > 
: let us know <3045 yada< > among <0996 beyn > ourselves what 
<4100 mah >  [ is ]  good <2896 towb > . 

 : 5 For Job <0347 >Iyowb > hath said <0559 >amar > ,  I am 
righteous <6663 tsadaq > : and God <0410 >el > hath taken <5493 
cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > my judgment <4941 mishpat > . 

 : 6 Should I lie <3576 kazab > against <5921 <al > my right 
<4941 mishpat > ?  my wound <2671 chets >  [ is ]  incurable 
<0605 >anash > without <1097 b@liy > transgression <6588 pesha<

 : 7 What <4310 miy > man <1397 geber >  [ is ]  like Job <0347 
>Iyowb > ,   [ who ]  drinketh <8354 shathah > up scorning <3933 
la<ag > like water <4325 mayim > ? 

 : 8 Which goeth <0732 >arach > in company <2274 chebrah > with 
the workers<6466 pa<al > of iniquity <0205 >aven > ,  and 
walketh <3212 yalak > with wicked <7562 resha< > men <0582 
>enowsh > . 

 : 9 For he hath said <0559 >amar > ,  It profiteth <5532 cakan

<7521 ratsah > himself with God <0430 >elohiym > . 

 : 10 .  Therefore <3651 ken > hearken <8085 shama< > unto me ,  
ye men <0582 >enowsh > of understanding <3824 lebab > : far 
<2486 chaliylah > be it from God <0410 >el > ,   [ that he 
should do ]  wickedness <7562 resha< > ;  and  [ from ]  the 
Almighty <7706 Shadday > ,   [ that he should commit ]  iniquity 
<5766 <evel > . 

 : 11 For the work <6467 po<al > of a man <0120 >adam > shall he 
render <7999shalam > unto him ,  and cause every man <0376 >iysh

>orach > . 

 : 12 Yea <0637 >aph > ,  surely <0551 >omnam > God <0410 >el > 
will not do wickedly <7561 rasha< > ,  neither <3808 lo> > will 
the Almighty <7706 Shadday > pervert <5791 <avath > judgment 
<4941 mishpat > . 

 : 13 Who <4310 miy > hath given him a charge <6485 paqad > over 
the earth <0776 >erets > ?  or who <4310 miy > hath disposed 
<7760 suwm > the whole <3605 kol > world <8398 tebel > ? 

 : 14 If <0518 >im > he set <7760 suwm > his heart <3820 leb > 
upon man ,   [ if ]  he gather <0622 >acaph > unto himself his 
spirit <7307 ruwach > and his breath <5397 n@shamah > ; 

 : 15 All <3605 kol > flesh <1320 basar > shall perish <1478 
gava< > together <3162 yachad > ,  and man <0120 >adam > shall 
turn <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > unto dust <6083 <aphar > .
 

 : 16 .  If <0518 >im > now  [ thou hast ]  understanding <0998

<0238 >azan > to the voice <6963 qowl > of my words <4405 millah

 : 17 Shall even <0637 >aph > he that hateth <8130 sane> > right 
<4941 mishpat > govern <2280 chabash > ?  and wilt thou condemn 
<7561 rasha< > him that is most <3524 kabbiyr > just <6662 
tsaddiyq > ? 

 : 18  [ Is it fit ]  to say <0559 >amar > to a king <4428 melek

princes <5081 nadiyb > ,   [ Ye are ]  ungodly <7563 rasha< > ? 

 : 19  [ How <0834 >aher > much less to him ]  that accepteth 
<5375 nasa> > not the persons <6440 paniym > of princes <8269 
sar > ,  nor <3808 lo> > regardeth <5234 nakar > the rich <7771 
showa< > more <6440 paniym > than <6440 paniym > the poor <1800 
dal > ?  for they all <3605 kol >  [ are ]  the work <4639 
ma<aseh > of his hands <3027 yad > . 

 : 20 In a moment <7281 rega< > shall they die <4191 muwth > ,  
and the people <5971 <am > shall be troubled <1607 ga<ash > at 
midnight ,  and pass <5674 <abar > away : and the mighty <47> 
shall be taken <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > without <3808 lo>

 : 21 For his eyes <5869 <ayin >  [ are ]  upon the ways <1870 
derek > of man <0376 >iysh > ,  and he seeth <7200 ra>ah > all 
<3605 kol > his goings <6806 tsa<ad > . 

 : 22  [ There is ]  no <0369 >ayin > darkness <2822 choshek > , 
 nor <0369 >ayin > shadow <6757 tsalmaveth > of death <6757 
tsalmaveth > ,  where <8033 sham > the workers <6466 pa<al > of 
iniquity <0205 >aven > may hide <5641 cathar > themselves . 

 : 23 For he will not lay <7760 suwm > upon man <0376 >iysh > 
more <5750 <owd >  [ than right <4941 mishpat > ]  ;  that he 
should enter <1980 halak > into judgment <4941 mishpat > with 
God <0410 >el > . 

 : 24 He shall break <7489 ra<a< > in pieces mighty <3524 
kabbiyr > men without <3808 lo> > number <2714 cheqer > ,  and 
set <5975 <amad > others <0312 >acher > in their stead <8478 
tachath > . 

 : 25 Therefore <3651 ken > he knoweth <5234 nakar > their works 
<4566 ma<bad > ,  and he overturneth <2015 haphak >  [ them ]  
in the night <3915 layil > ,  so that they are destroyed <1792 
daka> > . 

 : 26 He striketh <5606 caphaq > them as wicked <7563 rasha< > 
men in the open <4725 maqowm > sight <7200 ra>ah > of others ; 

 : 27 Because they turned <5493 cuwr > back <5493 cuwr > from 
him ,  and would not consider <7919 sakal > any <3605 kol > of 
his ways <1870 derek > : 

 : 28 So that they cause the cry <6818 tsa<aqah > of the poor 
<1800 dal > to come <0935 bow> > unto him ,  and he heareth 
<8085 shama< > the cry <6818 tsa<aqah > of the afflicted <6041 
<aniy > . 

 : 29 When he giveth quietness <8252 shaqat > ,  who <4310 miy > 
then can make trouble <7561 rasha< > ?  and when he hideth <5641 
cathar >  [ his ]  face <6440 paniym > ,  who <4310 miy > then 
can behold <7789 shuwr > him ?  whether  [ it be done ]  against 
<5921 <al > a nation <1471 gowy > ,  or against <5921 <al > a 
man <0120 >adam > only <3162 yachad > : 

 : 30 That the hypocrite <2611 chaneph > reign <4427 malak > not 
,  lest the people <5971 <am > be ensnared <4170 mowqesh > . 

 : 31 .  Surely <3588 kiy > it is meet to be said <0559 >amar > 
unto God <0410 >el > ,  I have borne <5375 nasa> >  [ 
chastisement ]  ,  I will not offend <2254 chabal >  [ any more

iniquity <5766 <evel > ,  I will do <6466 pa<al > no <3808 lo> > 
more . 

 : 33  [ Should it be ]  according to thy mind <5973 <im > ?  he 
will recompense <7999 shalam > it ,  whether <3588 kiy > thou 
refuse <3988 ma>ac > ,  or whether <3588 kiy > thou choose <0977 
bachar > ;  and not I : therefore speak <1696 dabar > what <4100 
mah > thou knowest <3045 yada< > . 

 : 34 Let men <0582 >enowsh > of understanding <3824 lebab > 
tell <0559 >amar > me ,  and let a wise <2450 chakam > man <1397 
geber > hearken <8085 shama< > unto me . 

 : 35 Job <0347 >Iyowb > hath spoken <1696 dabar > without <3808 
lo> > knowledge <1847 da<ath > ,  and his words <1697 dabar >  [ 
were ]  without <3808 lo> > wisdom <7919 sakal > . 

 : 36 My desire <15>  [ is that ]  Job <0347 >Iyowb > may be 
tried <0974 bachan > unto the end <5331 netsach > because <5921 
<al > of  [ his ]  answers <8666 t@shuwbah > for wicked <0205 
>aven > men <0582 >enowsh > . 

 : 37 For he addeth <3254 yacaph > rebellion <6588 pesha< > unto 
his sin <2403 chatta>ah > ,  he clappeth <5606 caphaq >  [ his 
hands ]  among <0996 beyn > us ,  and multiplieth <7235 rabah > 
his words <0561 >emer > against God <0410 >el > . 

 : Job 35

 : 1 .  Elihu <0453 >Eliyhuw > spake <6030 <anah > moreover ,  
and said <0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 Thinkest <2803 chashab > thou this <2063 zo>th > to be 
right <4941 mishpat > ,   [ that ]  thou saidst <0559 >amar > ,  
My righteousness <6664 tsedeq >  [ is ]  more <3254 yacaph > 
than God s <0410 >el > ? 

 : 3 For thou saidst <0559 >amar > ,  What <4100 mah > advantage 
<5532 cakan > will it be unto thee ?   [ and ]  ,  What <4100 
mah > profit <3276 ya<al > shall I have ,   [ if I be cleansed ] 
 from my sin <2403 chatta>ah > ? 

 : 4 I will answer <4405 millah > thee ,  and thy companions 
<7453 rea< > with thee . 

 : 5 Look <5027 nabat > unto the heavens <8064 shamayim > ,  and 
see <7200 ra>ah > ;  and behold <7789 shuwr > the clouds <7834 
shachaq >  [ which <0834 >aher > ]  are higher <1361 gabahh > 
than thou . 

 : 6 If <0518 >im > thou sinnest <2398 chata> > ,  what <4100 
mah > doest <6466 pa<al > thou against him ?  or  [ if ]  thy 
transgressions <6588 pesha< > be multiplied <7231 rabab > ,  
what <4100 mah > doest <6213 <asah > thou unto him ? 

 : 7 If <0518 >im > thou be righteous <6663 tsadaq > ,  what 
<4100 mah > givest<5414 nathan > thou him ?  or <0176 >ow > what 
<4100 mah > receiveth <3947 laqach > he of thine hand <3027 yad 
> ? 

 : 8 Thy wickedness <7562 resha< >  [ may hurt ]  a man <0376 
>iysh > as thou  [ art ]  ;  and thy righteousness <6666 
ts@daqah >  [ may profit ]  the son <1121 ben > of man <0120 
>adam > . 

 : 9 .  By reason of the multitude <7230 rob > of oppressions 
<6217 <ashuwq > they make  [ the oppressed ]  to cry <2199 za<aq 
> : they cry <7768 shava< > out by reason of the arm <2220 
z@rowa< > of the mighty <7227 rab > . 

 : 10 But none <3808 lo> > saith <0559 >amar > ,  Where <0335 
>ay >  [ is ]  God <0433 >elowahh > my maker <6213 <asah > ,  
who giveth <5414 nathan > songs <2158 zamiyr > in the night 
<3915 layil > ; 

 : 11 Who teacheth <0502 >alph > us more than the beasts <0929 
b@hemah > of the earth <0776 >erets > ,  and maketh us wiser 
<2449 chakam > than the fowls <5775 <owph > of heaven <8064 
shamayim > ? 

 : 12 There <8033 sham > they cry <6817 tsa<aq > ,  but none 
<3808 lo> > giveth answer <6030 <anah > ,  because <6440 paniym 
> of the pride <1347 ga>own > of evil <7451 ra< > men . 

 : 13 Surely <0389 >ak > God <0410 >el > will not hear <8085 
shama< > vanity <7723 shav> > ,  neither <3808 lo> > will the 
Almighty <7706 Shadday > regard <7789 shuwr > it . 

 : 14 .  Although thou sayest <0559 >amar > thou shalt not see 
<7789 shuwr > him ,   [ yet ]  judgment <1779 diyn >  [ is ]  
before <6440 paniym > him ;  therefore trust <2342 chuwl > thou 
in him . 

 : 15 But now <6258 <attah > ,  because <3588 kiy >  [ it is ]  
not  [ so ]  ,  he hath visited <6485 paqad > in his anger <0639 
>aph > ;  yet he knoweth <3045 yada< >  [ it ]  not in great 
<3966 m@<od > extremity <6580 pash > : 

 : 16 Therefore doth Job <0347 >Iyowb > open <6475 patsah > his 
mouth <6310 peh > in vain <1892 hebel > ;  he multiplieth <3527 
kabar > words <4405 millah > without <1097 b@liy > knowledge 
<1847 da<ath > . 

 : Job 36

 : 1 .  Elihu <0453 >Eliyhuw > also proceeded <3254 yacaph > ,  
and said <0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 Suffer <3803 kathar > me a little <2191 ze<eyr > ,  and I 
will shew <2331 chavah > thee that  [ I have ]  yet <5750 <owd > 
to speak <4405 millah > on God s <0433 >elowahh > behalf . 

 : 3 I will fetch <5375 nasa> > my knowledge <1843 dea< > from 
afar <7350 rachowq > ,  and will ascribe <5414 nathan > 
righteousness <6664 tsedeq > to my Maker <6466 pa<al > . 

 : 4 For truly <0551 >omnam > my words <4405 millah >  [ shall ] 
 not  [ be ]  false <8267 sheqer > : he that is perfect <8549 
tamiym > in knowledge <1844 de<ah >  [ is ]  with thee . 

 : 5 .  Behold <2005 hen > ,  God <0410 >el >  [ is ]  mighty 
<3524 kabbiyr > ,  and despiseth <3988 ma>ac > not  [ any : he 
is ]  mighty <3524 kabbiyr > in strength <3581 koach >  [ and ]  
wisdom <3820 leb > . 

 : 6 He preserveth <2421 chayah > not the life <2421 chayah > of 
the wicked <7563 rasha< > : but giveth <5414 nathan > right 
<4941 mishpat > to the poor <6041 <aniy > . 

 : 7 He withdraweth <1639 gara< > not his eyes <5869 <ayin > 
from the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > : but with kings <4428 melek 
>  [ are they ]  on the throne <3678 kicce> > ;  yea ,  he doth 
establish <3427 yashab > them for ever <5331 netsach > ,  and 
they are exalted <1361 gabahh > . 

 : 8 And if <0518 >im >  [ they be ]  bound <0631 >acar > in 
fetters <2131 ziyqah > ,   [ and ]  be holden <3920 lakad > in 
cords <2256 chebel > of affliction <6040 <oniy > ; 

 : 9 Then he sheweth <5046 nagad > them their work <6467 po<al > 
,  and their transgressions <6588 pesha< > that they have 
exceeded <1396 gabar > . 

 : 10 He openeth <1540 galah > also their ear <0241 >ozen > to 
discipline <4148 muwcar > ,  and commandeth <0559 >amar > that 
they return <7725 shuwb > from iniquity <0205 >aven > . 

 : 11 If <0518 >im > they obey <8085 shama< > and serve <5647 
<abad >  [ him ]  ,  they shall spend <3615 kalah > their days 
<3117 yowm > in prosperity <2896 towb > ,  and their years <8141 
shaneh > in pleasures <5273 na<iym > . 

 : 12 But if <0518 >im > they obey <8085 shama< > not ,  they 
shall perish <5674 <abar > by the sword <7973 shelach > ,  and 
they shall die <1478 gava< > without <1097 b@liy > knowledge 
<1847 da<ath > . 

 : 13 But the hypocrites <2611 chaneph > in heart <3820 leb > 
heap <7760 suwm > up wrath <0639 >aph > : they cry <7768 shava< 
> not when <3588 kiy > he bindeth <0631 >acar > them . 

 : 14 They die <4191 muwth > in youth <5290 no<ar > ,  and their 
life <2416 chay >  [ is ]  among the unclean <6945 qadesh > . 

 : 15 .  He delivereth <2502 chalats > the poor <6041 <aniy > in 
his affliction <6040 <oniy > ,  and openeth <1540 galah > their 
ears <0241 >ozen > in oppression <3906 lachats > . 

 : 16 Even so would he have removed <5493 cuwr > thee out of the 
strait <6862 tsar >  [ into ]  a broad <7338 rachab > place ,  
where  [ there is ]  no <3808 lo> > straitness <4164 muwtsaq > ; 
 and that which should be set <5183 Nachath > on thy table <7979 
shulchan >  [ should be ]  full <4390 male> > of fatness <1880 
deshen > . 

 : 17 But thou hast fulfilled <4390 male> > the judgment <1779 
diyn > of the wicked <7563 rasha< > : judgment <1779 diyn > and 
justice <4941 mishpat > take <8551 tamak > hold <8551 tamak >  [ 
on thee ]  . 

 : 18 Because <3588 kiy >  [ there is ]  wrath <2534 chemah > ,  
 [ beware ]  lest <6435 pen > he take <5496 cuwth > thee away 
<5496 cuwth > with  [ his ]  stroke <5607 cepheq > : then a 
great <7227 rab > ransom <3724 kopher > cannot <3808 lo> > 
deliver <5186 natah > thee . 

 : 19 Will he esteem <6186 <arak > thy riches <7769 shuwa< > ?   
[ no <3808 lo> > ]  ,  not gold <1222 b@tsar > ,  nor <3808 lo> 
> all <3605 kol > the forces <3981 ma>amats > of strength <3581 
koach > . 

 : 20 Desire <7602 sha>aph > not the night <3915 layil > ,  when 
people <5971 <am > are cut <5927 <alah > off in their place 
<8478 tachath > . 

 : 21 Take heed <8104 shamar > ,  regard <6437 panah > not 
iniquity <0205 >aven > : for this <2088 zeh > hast thou chosen 
<0970 bachuwr > rather than affliction <6040 <oniy > . 

 : 22 Behold <2005 hen > ,  God <0410 >el > exalteth <7682 sagab 
> by his power <3581 koach > : who <4310 miy > teacheth <3384 
yarah > like <3644 k@mow > him ? 

 : 23 Who <4310 miy > hath enjoined <6485 paqad > him his way 
<1870 derek > ?  orwho <4310 miy > can say <0559 >amar > ,  Thou 
hast wrought <6466 pa<al > iniquity <5766 <evel > ? 

 : 24 .  Remember <2142 zakar > that thou magnify <7679 saga> > 
his work <6467 po<al > ,  which <0834 >aher > men <0582 >enowsh 
> behold <7891 shiyr > . 

 : 25 Every <3605 kol > man <0120 >adam > may see <2372 chazah > 
it ;  man <0582 >enowsh > may behold <5027 nabat >  [ it ]  afar 
<7350 rachowq > off . 

 : 26 Behold <2005 hen > ,  God <0410 >el >  [ is ]  great <7689 
saggiy> > ,  and we know <3045 yada< >  [ him ]  not ,  neither 
<3808 lo> > can the number <4557 micpar > of his years <8141 
shaneh > be searched <2714 cheqer > out . 

 : 27 For he maketh small <1639 gara< > the drops <5197 nataph > 
of water <4325 mayim > : they pour <2212 zaqaq > down rain <4306 
matar > according to the vapour <0108 >ed > thereof : 

 : 28 Which <0834 >aher > the clouds <7834 shachaq > do drop 
<5140 nazal >  [ and ]  distil <7491 ra<aph > upon man <0120 
>adam > abundantly <7227 rab > . 

 : 29 Also <0637 >aph > can  [ any ]  understand <0995 biyn > 
the spreadings <4666 miphras > of the clouds <5645 <ab > ,   [ 
or ]  the noise <8663 t@shu>ah > of his tabernacle <5521 cukkah

 : 30 Behold <2005 hen > ,  he spreadeth <6566 paras > his light 
<0216 >owr > upon it ,  and covereth <3680 kacah > the bottom 
<8328 sheresh > of the sea <3220 yam > . 

 : 31 For by them judgeth <1777 diyn > he the people <5971 <am > 
;  he giveth <5414 nathan > meat <0400 >okel > in abundance 
<4342 makbiyr > . 

 : 32 With clouds <3709 kaph > he covereth <3680 kacah > the 
light <0216 >owr > ;  and commandeth <6680 tsavah > it  [ not to 
shine ]  by  [ the cloud ]  that cometh <6293 paga< > betwixt 
<6293 paga< > . 

 : 33 The noise <7452 rea< > thereof sheweth <5046 nagad > 
concerning <5921 <al > it ,  the cattle <4735 miqneh > also 
<0637 >aph > concerning <5921 <al > the vapour <5927 <alah > . 

 : Job 37

 : 1 .  At this <2063 zo>th > also <0637 >aph > my heart <3820 
leb > trembleth <2729 charad > ,  and is moved <5425 nathar > 
out of his place <4725 maqowm > . 

 : 2 Hear <8085 shama< > attentively <8085 shama< > the noise 
<7267 rogez > ofhis voice <6963 qowl > ,  and the sound <1899 
hegeh >  [ that ]  goeth <3318 yatsa> > out of his mouth <6310 
peh > . 

 : 3 He directeth <3474 yashar > it under <8478 tachath > the 
whole <3605 kol > heaven <8064 shamayim > ,  and his lightning 
<0216 >owr > unto the ends <3671 kanaph > of the earth <0776 
>erets > . 

 : 4 After <0310 >achar > it a voice <6963 qowl > roareth <7580 
sha>ag > : he thundereth <7481 ra<am > with the voice <6963 qowl 
> of his excellency <1347 ga>own > ;  and he will not stay <6117 
<aqab > them when <3588 kiy > his voice <6963 qowl > is heard 
<8085 shama< > . 

 : 5 God <0410 >el > thundereth <7481 ra<am > marvellously <6381 
pala> > with his voice <6963 qowl > ;  great <1419 gadowl > 
things doeth <6213 <asah > he ,  which we cannot <0408 >al > 
comprehend <3045 yada< > . 

 : 6 .  For he saith <0559 >amar > to the snow <7950 sheleg > ,  
Be thou  [ on ]  the earth <0776 >erets > ;  likewise to the 
small rain <1653 geshem > ,  and to the great <4306 matar > rain 
<1653 geshem > of his strength <5797 <oz > . 

 : 7 He sealeth <2856 chatham > up the hand <3027 yad > of every 
<3605 kol > man <0120 >adam > ;  that all <3605 kol > men <0582 
>enowsh > may know <3045 yada< > his work <4639 ma<aseh > . 

 : 8 Then the beasts <2416 chay > go <0935 bow> > into <1119 
b@mow > dens <0695 >ereb > ,  and remain <7931 shakan > in their 
places <4585 m@<ownah > . 

 : 9 Out of the south <2315 cheder > cometh <0935 bow> > the 
whirlwind <5492 cuwphah > : and cold <7135 qarah > out of the 
north <4215 m@zareh > . 

 : 10 By the breath <5397 n@shamah > of God <0410 >el > frost 
<7140 qerach > is given <5414 nathan > : and the breadth <7341 
rochab > of the waters <4325 mayim > is straitened <4164 muwtsaq

 : 11 Also <0637 >aph > by watering <7377 riy > he wearieth 
<2959 tarach > the thick cloud <5645 <ab > : he scattereth <6327 
puwts > his bright <0216 >owr > cloud <6051 <anan > : 

 : 12 And it is turned <2015 haphak > round <4524 mecab > about 
by his counsels <8458 tachbulah > : that they may do <6467 po<al 
> whatsoever he commandeth <6680 tsavah > them upon the face 
<6440 paniym > of the world <8398 tebel > in the earth <0776 
>erets > . 

 : 13 He causeth it to come <4672 matsa> > ,  whether <0518 >im

 : 14 .  Hearken <0238 >azan > unto this <2063 zo>th > ,  O Job 
<0347 >Iyowb > : stand <5975 <amad > still <5975 <amad > ,  and 
consider <0995 biyn > the wondrous <6381 pala> > works of God 
<0410 >el > . 

 : 15 Dost thou know <3045 yada< > when God <0433 >elowahh > 
disposed <7760 suwm > them ,  and caused the light <0216 >owr > 
of his cloud <6051 <anan > to shine <3313 yapha< > ? 

 : 16 Dost thou know <3045 yada< > the balancings <4657 miphlas

works of him which is perfect <8549 tamiym > in knowledge <1843 
dea< > ? 

 : 17 How <0834 >aher > thy garments <0899 beged >  [ are ]  
warm <2525 cham > ,  when <3588 kiy > he quieteth <8252 shaqat > 
the earth <0776 >erets > by the south <1864 darowm >  [ wind ]  
? 

 : 18 Hast thou with him spread <7554 raqa< > out the sky <7834 
shachaq > ,   [ which is ]  strong <2389 chazaq > ,   [ and ]  
as a molten <3332 yatsaq > looking <7209 r@>iy > glass <7209 
r@>iy > ? 

 : 19 Teach <3045 yada< > us what <4100 mah > we shall say <0559 
>amar > unto him ;   [ for ]  we cannot <3808 lo> > order <6186 
<arak >  [ our speech ]  by reason <6440 paniym > of darkness 
<2822 choshek > . 

 : 20 Shall it be told <5608 caphar > him that I speak <1696 
dabar > ?  if <0518 >im > a man <0376 >iysh > speak <0559 >amar

 : 21 .  And now <6258 <attah >  [ men ]  see <7200 ra>ah > not 
the bright <0925 bahiyr > light <0216 >owr > which <1931 huw> >  
[ is ]  in the clouds <7834 shachaq > : but the wind <7307 
ruwach > passeth <5674 <abar > ,  and cleanseth <2891 taher > 
them . 

 : 22 Fair <2091 zahab > weather <2091 zahab > cometh <0857 
>athah > out of the north <6828 tsaphown > : with God <0433 
>elowahh >  [ is ]  terrible <3372 yare> > majesty <1935 howd > .
 

 : 23  [ Touching ]  the Almighty <7706 Shadday > ,  we cannot 
<3808 lo> > find <4672 matsa> > him out :  [ he is ]  excellent 
<7689 saggiy> > in power <3581 koach > ,  and in judgment <4941 
mishpat > ,  and in plenty <7230 rob > of justice <6666 ts@daqah

 : 24 Men <0582 >enowsh > do <6213 <asah > therefore <3651 ken > 
fear <3372 yare> > him : he respecteth <7200 ra>ah > not any 
<3605 kol >  [ that are ]  wise <2450 chakam > of heart <3820

 : Job 38

 : 1 .  Then the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > answered <6030 <anah > Job 
<0347 >Iyowb > out of the whirlwind <5591 ca<ar > ,  and said 
<0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 Who <4310 miy >  [ is ]  this <2088 zeh > that darkeneth 
<2821 chashak > counsel <6098 <etsah > by words <4405 millah > 
without <1097 b@liy > knowledge <1847 da<ath > ? 

 : 3 Gird <0247 >azar > up now <4994 na> > thy loins <2504 
chalats > like <3644 k@mow > a man <1397 geber > ;  for I will 
demand <7592 sha>al > of thee ,  and answer <3045 yada< > thou 
me . 

 : 4 .  Where <0375 >eyphoh > wast <1961 hayah > thou when I 
laid the foundations <3245 yacad > of the earth <0776 >erets > ? 
 declare <5046 nagad > ,  if thou hast understanding <0998

 : 5 Who <4310 miy > hath laid <7760 suwm > the measures <4461 
memad > thereof ,  if <3588 kiy > thou knowest <3045 yada< > ?  
or <0176 >ow > who <4310 miy > hath stretched <5186 natah > the

 : 6 Whereupon are the foundations <0134 >eden > thereof 
fastened <2883 taba< > ?  or <0176 >ow > who <4310 miy > laid 
<3384 yarah > the corner <6438 pinnah > stone <68> thereof ; 

 : 7 When the morning <1242 boqer > stars <3556 kowkab > sang 
<7442 ranan > together <3162 yachad > ,  and all <3605 kol > the 
sons <1121 ben > of God <0430 >elohiym > shouted <7321 ruwa< > 
for joy ? 

 : 8 Or  [ who ]  shut <5526 cakak > up the sea <3220 yam > with 
doors <1817 deleth > ,  when it brake <1518 giyach > forth <1518 
giyach > ,   [ as if ]  it had issued <3318 yatsa> > out of the 
womb <7358 rechem > ? 

 : 9 When I made <7760 suwm > the cloud <6051 <anan > the 
garment <3830 l@buwsh > thereof ,  and thick darkness <6205 
<araphel > a swaddlingband <2854 chathullah > for it , 

 : 10 And brake <7665 shabar > up for it my decreed <2706 choq > 
 [ place ]  ,  and set <7760 suwm > bars <1280 b@riyach > and

the horse <5483 cuwc > and his rider <7392 rakab > .

strength <1369 g@buwrah > ?  hast thou clothed <3847 labash > 
his neck <6677 tsavva>r > with thunder <7483 ra<mah > ?

<5921 <al > him ,  the glittering <3851 lahab > spear <2595

<7782 showphar > ,  Ha <1889 heach > ,  ha <1889 heach > ;  and 
he smelleth <7306 ruwach > the battle <4421 milchamah > afar 
<7350 rachowq > off ,  the thunder <7482 ra<am > of the captains 
<8269 sar > ,  and the shouting <8643 t@ruw<ah > .

kanaph > toward the south <8486 teyman > ?

<5291 na<arah > thy command <6310 peh > ,  and make her nest 
<7064 qen > on high <7311 ruwm > ?

the rock <5553cela< > ,  upon the crag <8127 shen > of the rock 
<5553 cela< > ,  and the strong <4686 matsuwd > place .

prey <0400 >okel > ,   [ and ]  her eyes <5869 <ayin > behold 
<5027 nabat > afar <7350 rachowq > off .

 : 1 .  Moreover the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > answered <6030 <anah >

but I will proceed <3254 yacaph > no <3808 lo> > further . 

 : 6 .  Then answered <6030 <anah > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > 
unto Job <0347 >Iyowb > out of the whirlwind <5591 ca<ar > ,  
and said <0559 >amar > , 

 : 7 Gird <0247 >azar > up thy loins <2504 chalats > now <4994

judgment <4941 mishpat > ?  wilt thou condemn <7561 rasha< > me ,
  that thou mayest be righteous <6663 tsadaq > ? 

 : 9 Hast thou an arm <2220 z@rowa< > like God <0410 >el > ?  or 
canst thou thunder <7481 ra<am > with a voice <6963 qowl > like 
<3644 k@mow > him ? 

 : 10 Deck <5710 <adah > thyself now <4994 na> >  [ with ]  
majesty <1347 ga>own > and excellency <1363 gobahh > ;  and 
array <3847 labash > thyself with glory <1935 howd > and beauty 
<1926 hadar > . 

 : 11 Cast <6327 puwts > abroad <6327 puwts > the rage <5678

every <3605 kol > one  [ that is ]  proud <1343 ge>eh > ,  and 
abase <8213 shaphel > him . 

 : 12 Look <7200 ra>ah > on every <3605 kol > one  [ that is ]  
proud <1343 ge>eh > ,   [ and ]  bring <3665 kana< > him low 
<3665 kana< > ;  and tread <1915 hadak > down the wicked <7563

together <3162 yachad > ;   [ and ]  bind <2280 chabash > their 
faces <6440 paniym > in secret <2934 taman > . 

 : 14 Then will I also <1571 gam > confess <3034 yadah > unto 
thee that thine own right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn > can 
save <3467 yasha< > thee .

<0990 beten > . 

 : 17 He moveth <2654 chaphets > his tail <2180 zanab > like 
<3644 k@mow > a cedar <0730 >erez > : the sinews <1517 giyd > of

[ are ]  like bars <4800 merchab > of iron <1270 barzel > . 

 : 19 He  [ is ]  the chief <7725 shuwb > of the ways <1870

make his sword <2719 chereb > to approach <5066 nagash >  [ unto

Jordan <3383 Yarden > into <0413 >el > his mouth <6310 peh > .

tachanuwn > unto thee ?  will he speak <1696 dabar > soft <7390 
rak >  [ words ]  unto thee ? 

 : 4 Will he make <3772 karath > a covenant <1285 b@riyth > with 
thee ?  wilt thou take <3947 laqach > him for a servant <5650 
<ebed > for ever <5769 <owlam > ? 

 : 5 Wilt thou play <7832 sachaq > with him as  [ with ]  a bird 
<6833 tsippowr > ?  or wilt thou bind <7194 qashar > him for thy 
maidens <5291 na<arah > ? 

 : 6 Shall the companions <2271 chabbar > make a banquet <3738 
karah > of him ?  shall they part <2673 chatsah > him among 
<0996 beyn > the merchants <3669 K@na<aniy > ? 

 : 7 Canst thou fill <4390 male> > his skin <5785 <owr > with 
barbed <7905 sukkah > irons <7905 sukkah > ?  or his head <7218 
ro>sh > with fish <1709 dag > spears <6767 ts@latsal > ? 

 : 8 Lay <7760 suwm > thine hand <3709 kaph > upon him ,  
remember <2142 zakar > the battle <4421 milchamah > ,  do no 
<0408 >al > more <3254 yacaph > . 

 : 9 Behold <2005 hen > ,  the hope <8431 towcheleth > of him is 
in vain <3576 kazab > : shall not  [ one ]  be cast <2904 tuwl > 
down <2904 tuwl > even <1571 gam > at the sight <4758 mar>eh > 
of him ? 

 : 10 None <3808 lo> >  [ is so ]  fierce <0393 >akzar > that 
dare stir <5782 <uwr > him up : who <4310 miy > then is able to 
stand <3320 yatsab > before <6440 paniym > me ? 

 : 11 .  Who <4310 miy > hath prevented <6923 qadam > me ,  that 
I should repay <7999 shalam >  [ him ?  whatsoever is ]  under 
<8478 tachath > the whole <3605 kol > heaven <8064 shamayim > is 
mine . 

 : 12 I will not conceal <2790 charash > his parts <0905 bad > , 
 nor his power <1369 g@buwrah > ,  nor his comely <2433 chiyn > 
proportion <6187 <erek > . 

 : 13 Who <4310 miy > can discover <1540 galah > the face <6440 
paniym > of his garment <3830 l@buwsh > ?   [ or ]  who <4310 
miy > can come <0935 bow> >  [ to him ]  with his double <3718 
kephel > bridle <7448 recen > ? 

 : 14 Who <4310 miy > can open <6605 pathach > the doors <1817 
deleth > of his face <6440 paniym > ?  his teeth <8127 shen >  [ 
are ]  terrible <0367 >eymah > round <5439 cabiyb > about . 

 : 15  [ His ]  scales  [ are his ]  pride <1346 ga<avah > ,  
shut <5462 cagar > up together  [ as with ]  a close <6862 tsar 
> seal <2368 chowtham > . 

 : 16 One <0259 >echad > is so near <5066 nagash > to another 
<0259 >echad > ,  that no <3908 lachash > air <7307 ruwach > can 
come <0935 bow> > between <0996 beyn > them . 

 : 17 They are joined <1692 dabaq > one <0376 >iysh > to another 
<0250 >Ezrachiy > ,  they stick <3920 lakad > together ,  that 
they cannot <3808 lo> > be sundered <6504 parad > . 

 : 18 By his neesings <5846 <atiyshah > a light <0216 >owr > 
doth shine <1984 halal > ,  and his eyes <5869 <ayin >  [ are ]  
like the eyelids <6079 <aph<aph > of the morning <7837 shachar > 
. 

 : 19 Out of his mouth <6310 peh > go <1980 halak > burning 
<3940 lappiyd > lamps <3940 lappiyd > ,   [ and ]  sparks <3590 
kiydowd > of fire <0784 >esh > leap <4422 malat > out . 

 : 20 Out of his nostrils <5156 n@chiyr > goeth <3318 yatsa> > 
smoke <6227 <ashan > ,  as  [ out ]  of a seething <5301 naphach 
> pot <1731 duwd > or caldron <0100 >agmown > . 

 : 21 His breath <5315 nephesh > kindleth <3857 lahat > coals 
<1513 gechel > ,  and a flame <3851 lahab > goeth <3318 yatsa> > 
out of his mouth <6310 peh > . 

 : 22 In his neck <6677 tsavva>r > remaineth <3885 luwn > 
strength <5797 <oz > ,  and sorrow <1670 d@>abah > is turned 
<1750 duwts > into joy before <6440 paniym > him . 

 : 23 The flakes <4651 mappal > of his flesh <1320 basar > are 
joined <1692 dabaq > together : they are firm <3332 yatsaq > in 
themselves ;  they cannot <1077 bal > be moved <4131 mowt > . 

 : 24 His heart <3820 leb > is as firm <3332 yatsaq > as a stone 
<68> ;  yea ,  as hard <3332 yatsaq > as a piece <6400 pelach > 
of the nether <8482 tachtiy >  [ millstone ]  . 

 : 25 When he raiseth <7613 s@>eth > up himself ,  the mighty 
<0410 >el > are afraid <1481 guwr > : by reason of breakings 
<7667 sheber > they purify <2398 chata> > themselves . 

 : 26 The sword <2719 chereb > of him that layeth <5381 nasag > 
at him cannot <1097 b@liy > hold <6965 quwm > : the spear <2595 
chaniyth > ,  the dart <4551 macca< > ,  nor the habergeon <8302 
shiryown > . 

 : 27 He esteemeth <2803 chashab > iron <1270 barzel > as straw 
<8401 teben > ,   [ and ]  brass <5154 n@chuwshah > as rotten 
<7539 riqqabown > wood <6086 <ets > . 

 : 28 The arrow cannot <3808 lo> > make him flee <1272 barach > :
 slingstonesare turned <2015 haphak > with him into stubble 
<7179 qash > . 

 : 29 Darts <8455 towthach > are counted <2803 chashab > as 
stubble <7179 qash > : he laugheth <7832 sachaq > at the shaking 
<7494 ra<ash > of a spear <3591 kiydown > . 

 : 30 Sharp <2303 chadduwd > stones <2789 cheres >  [ are ]  
under <8478 tachath > him : he spreadeth <7502 raphad > sharp 
<2742 charuwts > pointed <2742 charuwts > things upon the mire 
<2916 tiyt > . 

 : 31 He maketh the deep <4688 m@tsowlah > to boil <7570 rathach 
> like a pot <5518 ciyr > : he maketh <7760 suwm > the sea <3220 
yam > like a pot of ointment <4841 merqachah > . 

 : 32 He maketh a path <5410 nathiyb > to shine <0215 >owr > 
after <0310 >achar > him ;   [ one ]  would think <2803 chashab 
> the deep <8415 t@howm >  [ to be ]  hoary <7872 seybah > . 

 : 33 Upon earth <6083 <aphar > there is not his like <4915 
moshel > ,  who is made <6213 <asah > without <1097 b@liy > fear 
<2844 chath > . 

 : 34 He beholdeth <7200 ra>ah > all <3605 kol > high <1364 
gaboahh >  [ things ]  : he  [ is ]  a king <4428 melek > over 
<5921 <al > all <3605 kol > the children <1121 ben > of pride 
<7830 shachats > . 

 : Job 42

 : 1 .  Then Job <0347 >Iyowb > answered <6030 <anah > the LORD 
<3068 Y@hovah > ,  and said <0559 >amar > , 

 : 2 I know <3045 yada< > that thou canst <3201 yakol > do every 
<3605 kol >  [ thing ]  ,  and  [ that ]  no <3908 lachash > 
thought <4209 m@zimmah > can be withholden <1219 batsar > from 
thee . 

 : 3 Who <4310 miy >  [ is ]  he that hideth <5956 <alam > 
counsel <6098 <etsah > without <1097 b@liy > knowledge <1847 
da<ath > ?  therefore <3651 ken > have I uttered <5046 nagad > 
that I understood <0995 biyn > not ;  things too wonderful <6381 
pala> > for me ,  which I knew <3045 yada< > not . 

 : 4 Hear <8085 shama< > ,  I beseech <4994 na> > thee ,  and I 
will speak <1696 dabar > : I will demand <7592 sha>al > of thee ,
  and declare <3045 yada< > thou unto me . 

 : 5 I have heard <8085 shama< > of thee by the hearing <8088 
shema< > of the ear <0241 >ozen > : but now <6258 <attah > mine 
eye <5869 <ayin > seeth <7200 ra>ah > thee . 

 : 6 Wherefore I abhor <3988 ma>ac >  [ myself ]  ,  and repent 
<5162 nacham > in dust <6083 <aphar > and ashes <0665 >epher > . 

 : 7 .  And it was  [ so ]  ,  that after <0310 >achar > the 
LORD <3068 Y@hovah > had spoken <1696 dabar > these <0428 >el - 
leh > words <1697 dabar > unto Job <0347 >Iyowb > ,  the LORD 
<3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > to Eliphaz <0464 >Eliyphaz > 
the Temanite <8489 Teymaniy > ,  My wrath <0639 >aph > is 
kindled <2734 charah > against thee ,  and against thy two <8147 
sh@nayim > friends <7453 rea< > : for ye have not spoken <1696 
dabar > of me  [ the thing that is ]  right <3559 kuwn > ,  as 
my servant <5650 <ebed > Job <0347 >Iyowb >  [ hath ]  . 

 : 8 Therefore take <3947 laqach > unto you now <6258 <attah > 
seven <7651 sheba< > bullocks <6499 par > and seven <7651 sheba< 
> rams <0352 >ayil > ,  and go <3212 yalak > to my servant <5650 
<ebed > Job <0347 >Iyowb > ,  and offer <5927 <alah > up for 
yourselves a burnt <5930 <olah > offering ;  and my servant 
<5650 <ebed > Job <0347 >Iyowb > shall pray <6419 palal > for 
you : for him will I accept <5375 nasa> > : lest <1115 biltiy > 
I deal <6213 <asah > with you  [ after <0310 >achar > your ]  
folly <5039 n@balah > ,  in that ye have not spoken <1696 dabar 
> of me  [ the thing which is ]  right <3559 kuwn > ,  like my 
servant <5650 <ebed > Job <0347 >Iyowb > . 

 : 9 So Eliphaz <0464 >Eliyphaz > the Temanite <8489 Teymaniy > 
and Bildad <1085 Bildad > the Shuhite <7747 Shuchiy >  [ and ]  
Zophar <6691 Tsowphar > the Naamathite <5284 Na<amathiy > went 
<3212 yalak > ,  and did <6213 <asah > according as the LORD 
<3068 Y@hovah > commanded <1696 dabar > them : the LORD <3068 
Y@hovah > also accepted <5375 nasa> > Job <0347 >Iyowb > . 

 : 10 .  And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > turned <7725 shuwb > the 
captivity <7622 sh@buwth > of Job <0347 >Iyowb > ,  when he 
prayed <6419 palal > for his friends <7453 rea< > : also the 
LORD <3068 Y@hovah > gave <3254 yacaph > Job <0347 >Iyowb > 
twice <4932 mishneh > as much <0634 >Ecar - Chaddown > as he had 
before . 

 : 11 Then came <0935 bow> > there unto him all <3605 kol > his 
brethren <0251 >ach > ,  and all <3605 kol > his sisters <0269 
>achowth > ,  and all <3605 kol > they that had been of his 
acquaintance <3045 yada< > before <6440 paniym > ,  and did eat 
<0398 >akal > bread <3899 lechem > with him in his house <1004 
bayith > : and they bemoaned <5110 nuwd > him ,  and comforted 
<5162 nacham > him over <5921 <al > all <3605 kol > the evil 
<7451 ra< > that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > had brought <0935 bow> 
> upon him : every man <0376 >iysh > also gave <5414 nathan > 
him a piece of money <7192 q@siytah > ,  and every <0376 >iysh > 
one <0376 >iysh > an earring <5141 nexem > of gold <2091 zahab > 
. 

 : 12 So the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > blessed <1288 barak > the 
latter <0319 >achariyth > end of Job <0347 >Iyowb > more than 
his beginning <7225 re>shiyth > : for he had <1961 hayah > 
fourteen thousand <0505 >eleph > sheep <6629 tso>n > ,  and six 
<8337 shesh > thousand <0505 >eleph > camels <1581 gamal > ,  
and a thousand <0505 >eleph > yoke <6776 tsemed > of oxen <1241 
baqar > ,  and a thousand <0505 >eleph > she asses <0860 >athown 
> . 

 : 13 He had <1961 hayah > also seven <7658 shib<anah > sons 
<1121 ben > and three <7969 shalowsh > daughters <1121 ben > . 

 : 14 And he called <7121 qara> > the name <8034 shem > of the 
first <7223 ri>shown > ,  Jemima <3224 Y@miymah > ;  and the 
name <8034 shem > of the second <8145 sheniy > ,  Kezia <7103 
Q@tsiy<ah > ;  and the name <8034 shem > of the third <7992 
sh@liyshiy > ,  Kerenhappuch <7163 qeren hap - puwk > . 

 : 15 And in all <3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets > were no 
<3908 lachash > women <0802 >ishshah > found <4672 matsa> >  [ 
so ]  fair <3303 yapheh > as the daughters <1121 ben > of Job 
<0347 >Iyowb > : and their father <1> gave <5414 nathan > them 
inheritance <5159 nachalah > among <8432 tavek > their brethren 
<0251 >ach > . 

 : 16 After <0310 >achar > this <2063 zo>th > lived <2421 chayah 
> Job <0347 >Iyowb > an hundred <3967 me>ah > and forty <0705 
>arba<iym > years <8141 shaneh > ,  and saw <7200 ra>ah > his 
sons <1121 ben > ,  and his sons <1121 ben >  sons <1121 ben > , 
  [ even ]  four <0702 >arba< > generations <1755 dowr > . 

 : 17 So Job <0347 >Iyowb > died <4191 muwth > ,   [ being ]  
old <2205 zaqen > and full <7646 saba< > of days <3117 yowm > .
