Job 4

4:1And undertaking, Eliphaz the Temanite says,

4:2If we take to speak to you, will you tire? But the strength of your words, who shall endure?

4:3For since you admonished many, and comforted the hands of the weak,

4:4and also raised up the ones being weak with words, and you invested courage to the ones powerless in knees,

4:5but now misery comes upon you, and touched you; and now you are hurried.

4:6Is it not that your fear is in folly, and your hope, and the evil of your way?

4:7Do you remember then who being pure was destroyed? or when the true ones were destroyed entirely from the root?

4:8As in which manner I beheld the ones plowing the unnatural places, then the ones sowing them shall harvest griefs for themselves.

4:9By the order of the lord they shall perish, and by the breath of his anger they shall be obliterated.

4:10The strength of the lion, and the voice of the lioness, and the prancing of dragons shall be extinguished.

4:11The small lion is destroyed by not having game; and the cubs of lions forsook one another.

4:12And to me it was spoken clandestinely in stealth; shall not my ear receive extraordinary things by him,

4:13in amazement from my nightly vision falling fear upon men?

4:14But a shuddering awe met with me, and trembling, and my bones quaked greatly.

4:15And a spirit came upon my face, and my hair and flesh shuddered.

4:16I rose up, and knew not; I saw and there was no appearance before my eyes, but only a breeze; and I heard a voice, saying,

4:17For what, Shall a mortal be pure before the lord? or shall a man be blameless from his works?

4:18If he does not even trust his servants, and even considers his angels as crooked in what he thinks about,

4:19then the ones dwelling in houses of clay, of whom also we are from out of the same mortar -- he smites them in the manner of a moth.

4:20And from morning until evening they are no longer; by their not being able to help themselves they themselves perish.

4:21You raised up together their vestige in them; they perished by their not having wisdom.
