| 1 | Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered, and said, |
| 2 | If we assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieued? But who can withhold himselfe from speaking? |
| 3 | Beholde, Thou hast instructed many, and thou hast strengthened the weake hands. |
| 4 | Thy words haue vpholden him that was falling, and thou hast strengthened the feeble knees. |
| 5 | But now it is come vpon thee, and thou faintest, it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled. |
| 6 | Is not this thy feare, thy confidence; the vprightnesse of thy wayes and thy hope? |
| 7 | Remember, I pray thee, who euer perished, being innocent? or where were the righteous cut off? |
| 8 | Euen as I haue seene, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickednsse, reape the same. |
| 9 | By the blast of God they perish, and by the breath of his nostrils are they consumed. |
| 10 | The roaring of the Lyon, and the voice of the fierce Lyon, and the teeth of the yong Lyons are broken. |
| 11 | The old Lyon perisheth for lacke of pray, and the stout Lyons whelpes are scattered abroad. |
| 12 | Nowe a thing was secretly brought to me, and mine eare receiued a litle thereof. |
| 13 | In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deepe sleepe falleth on men: |
| 14 | Feare came vpon me, and trembling, which made all my bones to shake. |
| 15 | Then a spirit passed before my face: the haire of my flesh stood vp. |
| 16 | It stood still, but I could not discerne the forme thereof: an image was before mine eyes, there was silence, and I heard a voyce, saying, |
| 17 | Shall mortall man be more iust then God? shall a man bee more pure then his maker? |
| 18 | Behold, hee put no trust in his seruants; and his Angels hee charged with folly: |
| 19 | Howe much lesse on them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, which are crushed before the moth. |
| 20 | They are destroyed from morning to euening: they perish for euer, without any regarding it. |
| 21 | Doeth not their excellencie which is in them, goe away? they die, euen without wisedome. |
