JOB 4:1  Then Eliphaz the Themanite answered, and said:

JOB 4:2  If we begin to speak to thee, perhaps thou wilt take it ill, but who can withhold the words he hath conceived?

JOB 4:3  Behold thou hast taught many, and thou hast strengthened the weary hands:

JOB 4:4  Thy words have confirmed them that were staggering, and thou hast strengthened the trembling knees:

JOB 4:5  But now the scourge is come upon thee, and thou faintest: it hath touched thee, and thou art troubled.

JOB 4:6  Where is thy fear, thy fortitude, thy patience, and the perfection of thy ways?

JOB 4:7  Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished being innocent? or when were the just destroyed?

JOB 4:8  On the contrary I have seen those who work iniquity, and sow sorrows, and reap them,

JOB 4:9  Perishing by the blast of God, and consumed by the spirit of his wrath.

JOB 4:10  The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the lioness, and the teeth of the whelps of lions are broken:

JOB 4:11  The tiger hath perished for want of prey, and the young lions are scattered abroad.

JOB 4:12  Now there was a word spoken to me in private, and my ears by stealth as it were received the veins of its whisper.

JOB 4:13  In the horror of a vision by night, when deep sleep is wont to hold men,

JOB 4:14  Fear seized upon me, and trembling, and all my bones were affrighted:

JOB 4:15  And when a spirit passed before me, the hair of my flesh stood up.

JOB 4:16  There stood one whose countenance I knew not, an image before my eyes, and I heard the voice as it were of a gentle wind:

JOB 4:17  Shall man be justified in comparison of God, or shall a man be more pure than his maker?

JOB 4:18  Behold they that serve him are not steadfast, and in his angels he found wickedness:

JOB 4:19  How much more shall they that dwell in houses of clay, who have an earthly foundation, be consumed as with the moth?

JOB 4:20  From morning till evening they shall be cut down: and because no one understandeth, they shall perish for ever.

JOB 4:21  And they that shall be left, shall be taken away from them: they shall die, and not in wisdom.
