Job 32:1--37:24

32:1
So these three
<07969>
men
<0582>
ceased
<07673> (8799)
to answer
<06030> (8800)
Job
<0347>_,
because he [was] righteous
<06662>
in his own eyes
<05869>_.
{to...: Heb. from answering}
32:2
Then was kindled
<02734> (8799)
the wrath
<0639>
of Elihu
<0453>
the son
<01121>
of Barachel
<01292>
the Buzite
<0940>_,
of the kindred
<04940>
of Ram
<07410>_:
against Job
<0347>
was his wrath
<0639>
kindled
<02734> (8804)_,
because he justified
<06663> (8763)
himself
<05315>
rather than God
<0430>_.
{himself: Heb. his soul}
32:3
Also against his three
<07969>
friends
<07453>
was his wrath
<0639>
kindled
<02734> (8804)_,
because they had found
<04672> (8804)
no answer
<04617>_,
and [yet] had condemned
<07561> (8686)
Job
<0347>_.
32:4
Now Elihu
<0453>
had waited
<02442> (8765)
till Job
<0347>
had spoken
<01697>_,
because they [were] elder
<02205> <03117>
than he. {waited...: Heb. expected Job in words} {elder: Heb. elder for days}
32:5
When Elihu
<0453>
saw
<07200> (8799)
that [there was] no answer
<04617>
in the mouth
<06310>
of [these] three
<07969>
men
<0582>_,
then his wrath
<0639>
was kindled
<02734> (8799)_.
32:6
And Elihu
<0453>
the son
<01121>
of Barachel
<01292>
the Buzite
<0940>
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
I [am] young
<06810> <03117>_,
and ye [are] very old
<03453>_;
wherefore I was afraid
<02119> (8804)_,
and durst
<03372> (8799)
not shew
<02331> (8763)
you mine opinion
<01843>_.
{young: Heb. few of days} {durst...: Heb. feared}
32:7
I said
<0559> (8804)_,
Days
<03117>
should speak
<01696> (8762)_,
and multitude
<07230>
of years
<08141>
should teach
<03045> (8686)
wisdom
<02451>_.
32:8
But
<0403>
[there is] a spirit
<07307>
in man
<0582>_:
and the inspiration
<05397>
of the Almighty
<07706>
giveth them understanding
<0995> (8799)_.
32:9
Great men
<07227>
are not [always] wise
<02449> (8799)_:
neither do the aged
<02205>
understand
<0995> (8799)
judgment
<04941>_.
32:10
Therefore I said
<0559> (8804)_,
Hearken
<08085> (8798)
to me; I also will shew
<02331> (8762)
mine opinion
<01843>_.
32:11
Behold, I waited
<03176> (8689)
for your words
<01697>_;
I gave ear
<0238> (8686)
to your reasons
<08394>_,
whilst ye searched out
<02713> (8799)
what to say
<04405>_.
{reasons: Heb. understandings} {what...: Heb. words}
32:12
Yea, I attended
<0995> (8709)
unto you, and, behold, [there was] none of you that convinced
<03198> (8688)
Job
<0347>_,
[or] that answered
<06030> (8802)
his words
<0561>_:
32:13
Lest ye should say
<0559> (8799)_,
We have found out
<04672> (8804)
wisdom
<02451>_:
God
<0410>
thrusteth him down
<05086> (8799)_,
not man
<0376>_.
32:14
Now he hath not directed
<06186> (8804)
[his] words
<04405>
against me: neither will I answer
<07725> (8686)
him with your speeches
<0561>_.
{directed: or, ordered}
32:15
They were amazed
<02865> (8804)_,
they answered
<06030> (8804)
no more: they left off
<06275> (8689)
speaking
<04405>_.
{left...: Heb. removed speeches from themselves}
32:16
When I had waited
<03176> (8689)_,
(for they spake
<01696> (8762)
not, but stood still
<05975> (8804)_,
[and] answered
<06030> (8804)
no more;)
32:17
[I said], I will answer
<06030> (8799)
also my part
<02506>_,
I also will shew
<02331> (8762)
mine opinion
<01843>_.
32:18
For I am full
<04390> (8804)
of matter
<04405>_,
the spirit
<07307>
within
<0990>
me constraineth
<06693> (8689)
me. {matter: Heb. words} {spirit...: Heb. spirit of my belly}
32:19
Behold, my belly
<0990>
[is] as wine
<03196>
[which] hath no vent
<06605> (8735)_;
it is ready to burst
<01234> (8735)
like new
<02319>
bottles
<0178>_.
{hath...: Heb. is not opened}
32:20
I will speak
<01696> (8762)_,
that I may be refreshed
<07304> (8799)_:
I will open
<06605> (8799)
my lips
<08193>
and answer
<06030> (8799)_.
{be...: Heb. breathe}
32:21
Let me not, I pray you, accept
<05375> (8799)
any man's
<0376>
person
<06440>_,
neither let me give flattering titles
<03655> (8762)
unto man
<0120>_.
32:22
For I know
<03045> (8804)
not to give flattering titles
<03655> (8762)_;
[in so doing] my maker
<06213> (8802)
would soon
<04592>
take me away
<05375> (8799)_.
33:1
Wherefore
<0199>_,
Job
<0347>_,
I pray thee, hear
<08085> (8798)
my speeches
<04405>_,
and hearken
<0238> (8685)
to all my words
<01697>_.
33:2
Behold, now I have opened
<06605> (8804)
my mouth
<06310>_,
my tongue
<03956>
hath spoken
<01696> (8765)
in my mouth
<02441>_.
{in my mouth: Heb. in my palate}
33:3
My words
<0561>
[shall be of] the uprightness
<03476>
of my heart
<03820>_:
and my lips
<08193>
shall utter
<04448> (8765)
knowledge
<01847>
clearly
<01305> (8803)_.
33:4
The Spirit
<07307>
of God
<0410>
hath made
<06213> (8804)
me, and the breath
<05397>
of the Almighty
<07706>
hath given me life
<02421> (8762)_.
33:5
If thou canst
<03201> (8799)
answer
<07725> (8687)
me, set [thy words] in order
<06186> (8798)
before
<06440>
me, stand up
<03320> (8690)_.
33:6
Behold, I [am] according to thy wish
<06310>
in God's
<0410>
stead: I also am formed
<07169> (8795)
out of the clay
<02563>_.
{wish: Heb. mouth} {formed: Heb. cut}
33:7
Behold, my terror
<0367>
shall not make thee afraid
<01204> (8762)_,
neither shall my hand
<0405>
be heavy
<03513> (8799)
upon thee.
33:8
Surely thou hast spoken
<0559> (8804)
in mine hearing
<0241>_,
and I have heard
<08085> (8799)
the voice
<06963>
of [thy] words
<04405>_,
[saying], {hearing: Heb. ears}
33:9
I am clean
<02134>
without transgression
<06588>_,
I [am] innocent
<02643>_;
neither [is there] iniquity
<05771>
in me.
33:10
Behold, he findeth
<04672> (8799)
occasions
<08569>
against me, he counteth
<02803> (8799)
me for his enemy
<0341> (8802)_,
33:11
He putteth
<07760> (8799)
my feet
<07272>
in the stocks
<05465>_,
he marketh
<08104> (8799)
all my paths
<0734>_.
33:12
Behold, [in] this thou art not just
<06663> (8804)_:
I will answer
<06030> (8799)
thee, that God
<0433>
is greater
<07235> (8799)
than man
<0582>_.
33:13
Why dost thou strive
<07378> (8804)
against him? for he giveth not account
<06030> (8799)
of any of his matters
<01697>_.
{he giveth...: Heb. he answereth not}
33:14
For God
<0410>
speaketh
<01696> (8762)
once
<0259>_,
yea twice
<08147>_,
[yet man] perceiveth
<07789> (8799)
it not.
33:15
In a dream
<02472>_,
in a vision
<02384>
of the night
<03915>_,
when deep
<08639>
sleep falleth
<05307> (8800)
upon men
<0582>_,
in slumberings
<08572>
upon the bed
<04904>_;
33:16
Then he openeth
<01540> (8799)
the ears
<0241>
of men
<0582>_,
and sealeth
<02856> (8799)
their instruction
<04561>_,
{he...: Heb. he revealeth, or, uncovereth}
33:17
That he may withdraw
<05493> (8687)
man
<0120>
[from his] purpose
<04639>_,
and hide
<03680> (8762)
pride
<01466>
from man
<01397>_.
{purpose: Heb. work}
33:18
He keepeth back
<02820> (8799)
his soul
<05315>
from the pit
<07845>_,
and his life
<02416>
from perishing
<05674> (8800)
by the sword
<07973>_.
{from perishing: Heb. from passing}
33:19
He is chastened
<03198> (8717)
also with pain
<04341>
upon his bed
<04904>_,
and the multitude
<07230> (8675) <07379>
of his bones
<06106>
with strong
<0386>
[pain]:
33:20
So that his life
<02416>
abhorreth
<02092> (8765)
bread
<03899>_,
and his soul
<05315>
dainty
<08378>
meat
<03978>_.
{dainty...: Heb. meat of desire}
33:21
His flesh
<01320>
is consumed away
<03615> (8799)_,
that it cannot be seen
<07210>_;
and his bones
<06106>
[that] were not seen
<07200> (8795)
stick out
<08192> (8795) (8675) <08205>_.
33:22
Yea, his soul
<05315>
draweth near
<07126> (8799)
unto the grave
<07845>_,
and his life
<02416>
to the destroyers
<04191> (8688)_.
33:23
If there
<03426>
be a messenger
<04397>
with him, an interpreter
<03887> (8688)_,
one
<0259>
among a thousand
<0505>_,
to shew
<05046> (8687)
unto man
<0120>
his uprightness
<03476>_:
33:24
Then he is gracious
<02603> (8799)
unto him, and saith
<0559> (8799)_,
Deliver
<06308> (8798)
him from going down
<03381> (8800)
to the pit
<07845>_:
I have found
<04672> (8804)
a ransom
<03724>_.
{a ransom: or, an atonement}
33:25
His flesh
<01320>
shall be fresher
<07375> (8738)
than a child's
<05290>_:
he shall return
<07725> (8799)
to the days
<03117>
of his youth
<05934>_:
{a child's: Heb. childhood}
33:26
He shall pray
<06279> (8799)
unto God
<0433>_,
and he will be favourable
<07521> (8799)
unto him: and he shall see
<07200> (8799)
his face
<06440>
with joy
<08643>_:
for he will render
<07725> (8686)
unto man
<0582>
his righteousness
<06666>_.
33:27
He looketh
<07789> (8799)
upon men
<0582>_,
and [if any] say
<0559> (8799)_,
I have sinned
<02398> (8804)_,
and perverted
<05753> (8689)
[that which was] right
<03477>_,
and it profited
<07737> (8804)
me not; {He...: or, He shall look upon men, and say}
33:28
He will deliver
<06299> (8804)
his soul
<05315>
from going
<05674> (8800)
into the pit
<07845>_,
and his life
<02416>
shall see
<07200> (8799)
the light
<0216>_.
{He...: or, He hath delivered my soul, etc, and my life}
33:29
Lo, all these [things] worketh
<06466> (8799)
God
<0410>
oftentimes
<06471> <07969>
with man
<01397>_,
{oftentimes: Heb. twice and thrice}
33:30
To bring back
<07725> (8687)
his soul
<05315>
from the pit
<07845>_,
to be enlightened
<0215> (8736)
with the light
<0216>
of the living
<02416>_.
33:31
Mark well
<07181> (8685)_,
O Job
<0347>_,
hearken
<08085> (8798)
unto me: hold thy peace
<02790> (8685)_,
and I will speak
<01696> (8762)_.
33:32
If thou hast
<03426>
any thing to say
<04405>_,
answer
<07725> (8685)
me: speak
<01696> (8761)_,
for I desire
<02654> (8804)
to justify
<06663> (8763)
thee.
33:33
If not, hearken
<08085> (8798)
unto me: hold thy peace
<02790> (8685)_,
and I shall teach
<0502> (8762)
thee wisdom
<02451>_.
34:1
Furthermore Elihu
<0453>
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
34:2
Hear
<08085> (8798)
my words
<04405>_,
O ye wise
<02450>
[men]; and give ear
<0238> (8685)
unto me, ye that have knowledge
<03045> (8802)_.
34:3
For the ear
<0241>
trieth
<0974> (8799)
words
<04405>_,
as the mouth
<02441>
tasteth
<02938> (8799)
meat
<0398> (8800)_.
{mouth: Heb. palate}
34:4
Let us choose
<0977> (8799)
to us judgment
<04941>_:
let us know
<03045> (8799)
among ourselves what [is] good
<02896>_.
34:5
For Job
<0347>
hath said
<0559> (8804)_,
I am righteous
<06663> (8804)_:
and God
<0410>
hath taken away
<05493> (8689)
my judgment
<04941>_.
34:6
Should I lie
<03576> (8762)
against my right
<04941>_?
my wound
<02671>
[is] incurable
<0605> (8803)
without transgression
<06588>_.
{my wound: Heb. mine arrow}
34:7
What man
<01397>
[is] like Job
<0347>_,
[who] drinketh up
<08354> (8799)
scorning
<03933>
like water
<04325>_?
34:8
Which goeth
<0732> (8804)
in company
<02274>
with the workers
<06466> (8802)
of iniquity
<0205>_,
and walketh
<03212> (8800)
with wicked
<07562>
men
<0582>_.
34:9
For he hath said
<0559> (8804)_,
It profiteth
<05532> (8799)
a man
<01397>
nothing that he should delight
<07521> (8800)
himself with God
<0430>_.
34:10
Therefore hearken
<08085> (8798)
unto me, ye men
<0582>
of understanding
<03824>_:
far be it
<02486>
from God
<0410>_,
[that he should do] wickedness
<07562>_;
and [from] the Almighty
<07706>_,
[that he should commit] iniquity
<05766>_.
{men...: Heb. men of heart}
34:11
For the work
<06467>
of a man
<0120>
shall he render
<07999> (8762)
unto him, and cause every man
<0376>
to find
<04672> (8686)
according to [his] ways
<0734>_.
34:12
Yea, surely
<0551>
God
<0410>
will not do wickedly
<07561> (8686)_,
neither will the Almighty
<07706>
pervert
<05791> (8762)
judgment
<04941>_.
34:13
Who hath given him a charge
<06485> (8804)
over the earth
<0776>_?
or who hath disposed
<07760> (8804)
the whole world
<08398>_?
{the whole: Heb. all of it?}
34:14
If he set
<07760> (8799)
his heart
<03820>
upon man, [if] he gather
<0622> (8799)
unto himself his spirit
<07307>
and his breath
<05397>_;
{man: Heb. him}
34:15
All flesh
<01320>
shall perish
<01478> (8799)
together
<03162>_,
and man
<0120>
shall turn again
<07725> (8799)
unto dust
<06083>_.
34:16
If now [thou hast] understanding
<0998>_,
hear
<08085> (8798)
this: hearken
<0238> (8685)
to the voice
<06963>
of my words
<04405>_.
34:17
Shall even he that hateth
<08130> (8802)
right
<04941>
govern
<02280> (8799)_?
and wilt thou condemn
<07561> (8686)
him that is most
<03524>
just
<06662>_?
{govern: Heb. bind?}
34:18
[Is it fit] to say
<0559> (8800)
to a king
<04428>_,
[Thou art] wicked
<01100>_?
[and] to princes
<05081>_,
[Ye are] ungodly
<07563>_?
34:19
[How much less to him] that accepteth
<05375> (8804)
not the persons
<06440>
of princes
<08269>_,
nor regardeth
<05234> (8765)
the rich
<07771>
more than
<06440>
the poor
<01800>_?
for they all [are] the work
<04639>
of his hands
<03027>_.
34:20
In a moment
<07281>
shall they die
<04191> (8799)_,
and the people
<05971>
shall be troubled
<01607> (8792)
at midnight
<02676> <03915>_,
and pass away
<05674> (8799)_:
and the mighty
<047>
shall be taken away
<05493> (8686)
without hand
<03027>_.
{the mighty...: Heb. they shall take away the mighty}
34:21
For his eyes
<05869>
[are] upon the ways
<01870>
of man
<0376>_,
and he seeth
<07200> (8799)
all his goings
<06806>_.
34:22
[There is] no darkness
<02822>_,
nor shadow of death
<06757>_,
where the workers
<06466> (8802)
of iniquity
<0205>
may hide
<05641> (8736)
themselves.
34:23
For he will not lay
<07760> (8799)
upon man
<0376>
more [than right]; that he should enter
<01980> (8800)
into judgment
<04941>
with God
<0410>_.
{enter: Heb. go}
34:24
He shall break in pieces
<07489> (8799)
mighty men
<03524>
without number
<02714>_,
and set
<05975> (8686)
others
<0312>
in their stead. {number: Heb. searching out}
34:25
Therefore he knoweth
<05234> (8686)
their works
<04566>_,
and he overturneth
<02015> (8804)
[them] in the night
<03915>_,
so that they are destroyed
<01792> (8691)_.
{destroyed: Heb. crushed}
34:26
He striketh
<05606> (8804)
them as
<08478>
wicked men
<07563>
in the open
<04725>
sight
<07200> (8802)
of others; {open...: Heb. place of beholders}
34:27
Because they turned back
<05493> (8804)
from him
<0310>_,
and would not consider
<07919> (8689)
any of his ways
<01870>_:
{him: Heb. after him}
34:28
So that they cause the cry
<06818>
of the poor
<01800>
to come
<0935> (8687)
unto him, and he heareth
<08085> (8799)
the cry
<06818>
of the afflicted
<06041>_.
34:29
When he giveth quietness
<08252> (8686)_,
who then can make trouble
<07561> (8686)_?
and when he hideth
<05641> (8686)
[his] face
<06440>_,
who then can behold
<07789> (8799)
him? whether [it be done] against a nation
<01471>_,
or against a man
<0120>
only
<03162>_:
34:30
That the hypocrite
<0120> <02611>
reign
<04427> (8800)
not, lest the people
<05971>
be ensnared
<04170>_.
34:31
Surely it is meet to be said
<0559> (8736)
unto God
<0410>_,
I have borne
<05375> (8804)
[chastisement], I will not offend
<02254> (8799)
[any more]:
34:32
[That which] I see
<02372> (8799)
not
<01107>
teach
<03384> (8685)
thou me: if I have done
<06466> (8804)
iniquity
<05766>_,
I will do
<03254> (8686)
no more.
34:33
[Should it be] according to thy mind? he will recompense
<07999> (8762)
it, whether thou refuse
<03588> <03988> (8804)_,
or whether thou choose
<0977> (8799)_;
and not I: therefore speak
<01696> (8761)
what thou knowest
<03045> (8804)_.
{according...: Heb. from with thee?}
34:34
Let men
<0582>
of understanding
<03824>
tell
<0559> (8799)
me, and let a wise
<02450>
man
<01397>
hearken
<08085> (8802)
unto me. {of...: Heb. of heart}
34:35
Job
<0347>
hath spoken
<01696> (8762)
without knowledge
<01847>_,
and his words
<01697>
[were] without wisdom
<07919> (8687)_.
34:36
My desire
<015> (8676) <01>
[is that] Job
<0347>
may be tried
<0974> (8735)
unto the end
<05331>
because of [his] answers
<08666>
for wicked
<0205>
men
<0582>_.
{My...: or, My father, let Job be tried}
34:37
For he addeth
<03254> (8686)
rebellion
<06588>
unto his sin
<02403>_,
he clappeth
<05606> (8799)
[his hands] among us, and multiplieth
<07235> (8686)
his words
<0561>
against God
<0410>_.
35:1
Elihu
<0453>
spake
<06030> (8799)
moreover, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
35:2
Thinkest
<02803> (8804)
thou this to be right
<04941>_,
[that] thou saidst
<0559> (8804)_,
My righteousness
<06664>
[is] more than God's
<0410>_?
35:3
For thou saidst
<0559> (8799)_,
What advantage
<05532> (8799)
will it be unto thee? [and], What profit
<03276> (8686)
shall I have, [if I be cleansed] from my sin
<02403>_?
{if...: or, by it more than by my sin}
35:4
I will answer
<07725> (8686) <04405>
thee, and thy companions
<07453>
with thee. {answer...: Heb. return to thee words}
35:5
Look
<05027> (8685)
unto the heavens
<08064>_,
and see
<07200> (8798)_;
and behold
<07789> (8798)
the clouds
<07834>
[which] are higher
<01361> (8804)
than thou.
35:6
If thou sinnest
<02398> (8804)_,
what doest
<06466> (8799)
thou against him? or [if] thy transgressions
<06588>
be multiplied
<07231> (8804)_,
what doest
<06213> (8799)
thou unto him?
35:7
If thou be righteous
<06663> (8804)_,
what givest
<05414> (8799)
thou him? or what receiveth
<03947> (8799)
he of thine hand
<03027>_?
35:8
Thy wickedness
<07562>
[may hurt] a man
<0376>
as thou [art]; and thy righteousness
<06666>
[may profit] the son
<01121>
of man
<0120>_.
35:9
By reason of the multitude
<07230>
of oppressions
<06217>
they make [the oppressed] to cry
<02199> (8686)_:
they cry out
<07768> (8762)
by reason of the arm
<02220>
of the mighty
<07227>_.
35:10
But none saith
<0559> (8804)_,
Where [is] God
<0433>
my maker
<06213> (8802)_,
who giveth
<05414> (8802)
songs
<02158>
in the night
<03915>_;
35:11
Who teacheth
<0502> (8764)
us more than the beasts
<0929>
of the earth
<0776>_,
and maketh us wiser
<02449> (8762)
than the fowls
<05775>
of heaven
<08064>_?
35:12
There they cry
<06817> (8799)_,
but none giveth answer
<06030> (8799)_,
because
<06440>
of the pride
<01347>
of evil men
<07451>_.
35:13
Surely God
<0410>
will not hear
<08085> (8799)
vanity
<07723>_,
neither will the Almighty
<07706>
regard
<07789> (8799)
it.
35:14
Although
<0637>
thou sayest
<0559> (8799)
thou shalt not see
<07789> (8799)
him, [yet] judgment
<01779>
[is] before
<06440>
him; therefore trust
<02342> (8787)
thou in him.
35:15
But now, because [it is] not [so], he hath visited
<06485> (8804)
in his anger
<0639>_;
yet he knoweth
<03045> (8804)
[it] not in great
<03966>
extremity
<06580>_:
{he hath: that is, God hath} {he knoweth: that is, Job knoweth}
35:16
Therefore doth Job
<0347>
open
<06475> (8799)
his mouth
<06310>
in vain
<01892>_;
he multiplieth
<03527> (8686)
words
<04405>
without
<01097>
knowledge
<01847>_.
36:1
Elihu
<0453>
also proceeded
<03254> (8686)_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
36:2
Suffer
<03803> (8761)
me a little
<02191>_,
and I will shew
<02331> (8762)
thee that [I have] yet to speak
<04405>
on God's
<0433>
behalf. {I have...: Heb. there are yet words for God}
36:3
I will fetch
<05375> (8799)
my knowledge
<01843>
from afar
<07350>_,
and will ascribe
<05414> (8799)
righteousness
<06664>
to my Maker
<06466> (8802)_.
36:4
For truly
<0551>
my words
<04405>
[shall] not [be] false
<08267>_:
he that is perfect
<08549>
in knowledge
<01844>
[is] with thee.
36:5
Behold, God
<0410>
[is] mighty
<03524>_,
and despiseth
<03988> (8799)
not [any: he is] mighty
<03524>
in strength
<03581>
[and] wisdom
<03820>_.
{wisdom: Heb. heart}
36:6
He preserveth not the life
<02421> (8762)
of the wicked
<07563>_:
but giveth
<05414> (8799)
right
<04941>
to the poor
<06041>_.
{poor: or, afflicted}
36:7
He withdraweth
<01639> (8799)
not his eyes
<05869>
from the righteous
<06662>_:
but with kings
<04428>
[are they] on the throne
<03678>_;
yea, he doth establish
<03427> (8686)
them for ever
<05331>_,
and they are exalted
<01361> (8799)_.
36:8
And if [they be] bound
<0631> (8803)
in fetters
<02131>_,
[and] be holden
<03920> (8735)
in cords
<02256>
of affliction
<06040>_;
36:9
Then he sheweth
<05046> (8686)
them their work
<06467>_,
and their transgressions
<06588>
that they have exceeded
<01396> (8691)_.
36:10
He openeth
<01540> (8799)
also their ear
<0241>
to discipline
<04148>_,
and commandeth
<0559> (8799)
that they return
<07725> (8799)
from iniquity
<0205>_.
36:11
If they obey
<08085> (8799)
and serve
<05647> (8799)
[him], they shall spend
<03615> (8762)
their days
<03117>
in prosperity
<02896>_,
and their years
<08141>
in pleasures
<05273>_.
36:12
But if they obey
<08085> (8799)
not, they shall perish
<05674> (8799)
by the sword
<07973>_,
and they shall die
<01478> (8799)
without knowledge
<01847>_.
{perish: Heb. pass away}
36:13
But the hypocrites
<02611>
in heart
<03820>
heap up
<07760> (8799)
wrath
<0639>_:
they cry
<07768> (8762)
not when he bindeth
<0631> (8804)
them.
36:14
They
<05315>
die
<04191> (8799)
in youth
<05290>_,
and their life
<02416>
[is] among the unclean
<06945>_.
{They...: Heb. Their soul dieth} {unclean: or, sodomites}
36:15
He delivereth
<02502> (8762)
the poor
<06041>
in his affliction
<06040>_,
and openeth
<01540> (8799)
their ears
<0241>
in oppression
<03906>_.
{poor: or, afflicted}
36:16
Even so would he have removed
<05496> (8689)
thee out of the strait
<06310> <06862>
[into] a broad place
<07338>_,
where
<08478>
[there is] no straitness
<04164>_;
and that which should be set
<05183>
on thy table
<07979>
[should be] full
<04390> (8804)
of fatness
<01880>_.
{that...: Heb. the rest of thy table}
36:17
But thou hast fulfilled
<04390> (8804)
the judgment
<01779>
of the wicked
<07563>_:
judgment
<01779>
and justice
<04941>
take hold
<08551> (8799)
[on thee]. {take...: or, should uphold thee}
36:18
Because [there is] wrath
<02534>_,
[beware] lest he take thee away
<05496> (8686)
with [his] stroke
<05607>_:
then a great
<07230>
ransom
<03724>
cannot deliver
<05186> (8686)
thee. {deliver...: Heb. turn thee aside}
36:19
Will he esteem
<06186> (8799)
thy riches
<07769>_?
[no], not gold
<01222>_,
nor all the forces
<03981>
of strength
<03581>_.
36:20
Desire
<07602> (8799)
not the night
<03915>_,
when people
<05971>
are cut off
<05927> (8800)
in their place.
36:21
Take heed
<08104> (8734)_,
regard
<06437> (8799)
not iniquity
<0205>_:
for this hast thou chosen
<0977> (8804)
rather than affliction
<06040>_.
36:22
Behold, God
<0410>
exalteth
<07682> (8686)
by his power
<03581>_:
who teacheth
<03384> (8688)
like him?
36:23
Who hath enjoined
<06485> (8804)
him his way
<01870>_?
or who can say
<0559> (8804)_,
Thou hast wrought
<06466> (8804)
iniquity
<05766>_?
36:24
Remember
<02142> (8798)
that thou magnify
<07679> (8686)
his work
<06467>_,
which men
<0582>
behold
<07891> (8790)_.
36:25
Every man
<0120>
may see
<02372> (8804)
it; man
<0582>
may behold
<05027> (8686)
[it] afar off
<07350>_.
36:26
Behold, God
<0410>
[is] great
<07689>_,
and we know
<03045> (8799)
[him] not, neither can the number
<04557>
of his years
<08141>
be searched out
<02714>_.
36:27
For he maketh small
<01639> (8762)
the drops
<05198>
of water
<04325>_:
they pour down
<02212> (8799)
rain
<04306>
according to the vapour
<0108>
thereof:
36:28
Which the clouds
<07834>
do drop
<05140> (8799)
[and] distil
<07491> (8799)
upon man
<0120>
abundantly
<07227>_.
36:29
Also can [any] understand
<0995> (8799)
the spreadings
<04666>
of the clouds
<05645>_,
[or] the noise
<08663>
of his tabernacle
<05521>_?
36:30
Behold, he spreadeth
<06566> (8804)
his light
<0216>
upon it, and covereth
<03680> (8765)
the bottom
<08328>
of the sea
<03220>_.
{bottom: Heb. roots}
36:31
For by them judgeth
<01777> (8799)
he the people
<05971>_;
he giveth
<05414> (8799)
meat
<0400>
in abundance
<04342> (8688)_.
36:32
With clouds
<03709>
he covereth
<03680> (8765)
the light
<0216>_;
and commandeth
<06680> (8762)
it [not to shine] by [the cloud] that cometh betwixt
<06293> (8688)_.
36:33
The noise
<07452>
thereof sheweth
<05046> (8686)
concerning it, the cattle
<04735>
also concerning the vapour
<05927> (8802)_.
{the vapour: Heb. that which goeth up}
37:1
At this
<02063>
also my heart
<03820>
trembleth
<02729> (8799)_,
and is moved out
<05425> (8799)
of his place
<04725>_.
37:2
Hear
<08085> (8798)
attentively
<08085> (8800)
the noise
<07267>
of his voice
<06963>_,
and the sound
<01899>
[that] goeth out
<03318> (8799)
of his mouth
<06310>_.
{Hear...: Heb. Hear in hearing}
37:3
He directeth
<03474> (8765)
it
<08281> (8799)
under the whole heaven
<08064>_,
and his lightning
<0216>
unto the ends
<03671>
of the earth
<0776>_.
{lightning: Heb. light} {ends: Heb. wings}
37:4
After
<0310>
it a voice
<06963>
roareth
<07580> (8799)_:
he thundereth
<07481> (8686)
with the voice
<06963>
of his excellency
<01347>_;
and he will not stay
<06117> (8762)
them when his voice
<06963>
is heard
<08085> (8735)_.
37:5
God
<0410>
thundereth
<07481> (8686)
marvellously
<06381> (8737)
with his voice
<06963>_;
great things
<01419>
doeth
<06213> (8802)
he, which we cannot comprehend
<03045> (8799)_.
37:6
For he saith
<0559> (8799)
to the snow
<07950>_,
Be thou
<01933> (8798)
[on] the earth
<0776>_;
likewise to the small
<04306>
rain
<01653>_,
and to the great
<04306>
rain
<01653>
of his strength
<05797>_.
{likewise...: Heb. and to the shower of rain, and to the showers of rain of his strength}
37:7
He sealeth up
<02856> (8799)
the hand
<03027>
of every man
<0120>_;
that all men
<0582>
may know
<03045> (8800)
his work
<04639>_.
37:8
Then the beasts
<02416>
go
<0935> (8799)
into
<01119>
dens
<0695>_,
and remain
<07931> (8799)
in their places
<04585>_.
37:9
Out of the south
<02315>
cometh
<0935> (8799)
the whirlwind
<05492>_:
and cold
<07135>
out of the north
<04215>_.
{south: Heb. chamber} {north: Heb. scattering winds}
37:10
By the breath
<05397>
of God
<0410>
frost
<07140>
is given
<05414> (8799)_:
and the breadth
<07341>
of the waters
<04325>
is straitened
<04164>_.
37:11
Also by watering
<07377>
he wearieth
<02959> (8686)
the thick cloud
<05645>_:
he scattereth
<06327> (8686)
his bright
<0216>
cloud
<06051>_:
{his...: Heb. the cloud of his light}
37:12
And it is turned
<02015> (8693)
round about
<04524>
by his counsels
<08458>_:
that they may do
<06467>
whatsoever he commandeth
<06680> (8762)
them upon the face
<06440>
of the world
<08398>
in the earth
<0776>_.
37:13
He causeth it to come
<04672> (8686)_,
whether for correction
<07626>_,
or for his land
<0776>_,
or for mercy
<02617>_.
{correction: Heb. a rod}
37:14
Hearken
<0238> (8685)
unto this, O Job
<0347>_:
stand still
<05975> (8798)_,
and consider
<0995> (8708)
the wondrous
<06381> (8737)
works of God
<0410>_.
37:15
Dost thou know
<03045> (8799)
when God
<0433>
disposed
<07760> (8800)
them, and caused the light
<0216>
of his cloud
<06051>
to shine
<03313> (8689)_?
37:16
Dost thou know
<03045> (8799)
the balancings
<04657>
of the clouds
<05645>_,
the wondrous works
<04652>
of him which is perfect
<08549>
in knowledge
<01843>_?
37:17
How thy garments
<0899>
[are] warm
<02525>_,
when he quieteth
<08252> (8687)
the earth
<0776>
by the south
<01864>
[wind]?
37:18
Hast thou with him spread out
<07554> (8686)
the sky
<07834>_,
[which is] strong
<02389>_,
[and] as a molten
<03332> (8716)
looking glass
<07209>_?
37:19
Teach
<03045> (8685)
us what we shall say
<0559> (8799)
unto him; [for] we cannot order
<06186> (8799)
[our speech] by reason
<06440>
of darkness
<02822>_.
37:20
Shall it be told
<05608> (8792)
him that I speak
<01696> (8762)_?
if a man
<0376>
speak
<0559> (8804)_,
surely he shall be swallowed up
<01104> (8792)_.
37:21
And now [men] see
<07200> (8804)
not the bright
<0925>
light
<0216>
which [is] in the clouds
<07834>_:
but the wind
<07307>
passeth
<05674> (8804)_,
and cleanseth
<02891> (8762)
them.
37:22
Fair weather
<02091>
cometh
<0857> (8799)
out of the north
<06828>_:
with God
<0433>
[is] terrible
<03372> (8737)
majesty
<01935>_.
{Fair...: Heb. Gold}
37:23
[Touching] the Almighty
<07706>_,
we cannot find him out
<04672> (8804)_:
[he is] excellent
<07689>
in power
<03581>_,
and in judgment
<04941>_,
and in plenty
<07230>
of justice
<06666>_:
he will not afflict
<06031> (8762)_.
37:24
Men
<0582>
do therefore fear
<03372> (8804)
him: he respecteth
<07200> (8799)
not any [that are] wise
<02450>
of heart
<03820>_.
