1 Then answered H6030 W-VQY3MS Eliphaz H464 EMS the Temanite H8489 TMP , and said H559 W-VQY3MS ,
2 Should a wise H2450 I-AMS man utter H6030 VQY3MS vain H7307 NFS knowledge H1847 CFS , and fill H4390 W-VPY3MS his belly H990 CFS-3MS with the east wind H6921 NMP ?
3 Should he reason H3198 VHFA with unprofitable H5532 VQY3MS talk H1697 B-NMS ? or with speeches H4405 W-NFP wherewith he can do no H3808 NADV good H3276 VHY3MS ?
4 Yea H637 CONJ , thou H859 PPRO-2MS castest off H6565 VHY2MS fear H3374 NFS , and restrainest H1639 W-VQY2MS prayer H7881 NFS before H6440 L-CMP God H410 NMS .
5 For H3588 CONJ thy mouth H6310 CMS-2MS uttereth H502 VPY3MS thine iniquity H5771 CMS-2MS , and thou choosest H977 W-VQY2MS the tongue H3956 L-CMS of the crafty H6175 AMP .
6 Thine own mouth H6310 CMS-2MS condemneth H7561 VHY3MS-2MS thee , and not H3808 W-NPAR I H589 PPRO-1MS : yea , thine own lips H8193 W-CFD-2MS testify H6030 VQY3MP against thee .
7 Art thou the first H7223 D-AMS man H120 NMS that was born H3205 VNY2MS ? or wast thou made H2342 VUQ2MS before H6440 WL-CMP the hills H1389 NFP ?
8 Hast thou heard H8085 VQY2MS the secret H5475 DB-CMS of God H433 EDS ? and dost thou restrain H1639 W-VQY2FS wisdom H2451 NFS to H413 PREP-2MS thyself ?
9 What H4100 IPRO knowest H3045 VQQ2MS thou , that we know H3045 VQY1MP not H3808 W-NPAR ? what understandest H995 VQY2MS thou , which H1931 PPRO-3MS is not H3808 W-NPAR in H5973 PREP-1MP us ?
10 With us are both H1571 CONJ the grayheaded H7867 VQPMS and H1571 CONJ very aged men H3453 AMS , much elder H3524 AMS than thy father H1 M-CMS-2MS .
11 Are the consolations H8575 CMP of God H410 EDS small H4592 D-AMS with H4480 PREP-2MS thee ? is there any secret H328 L-ADV thing H1697 W-NMS with H5973 PREP-2FS thee ?
12 Why H4100 IPRO doth thine heart H3820 CMS-2MS carry thee away H3947 VQY3MS-2MS ? and what H4100 IPRO do thy eyes H5869 CMD-2MS wink at H7335 VQY3MP-3FP ,
13 That H3588 CONJ thou turnest H7725 VHY2MS thy spirit H7307 CMS-2MS against H413 PREP God H410 EDS , and lettest such words H4405 CFP-3FP go out H3318 W-VHQ2MS of thy mouth H6310 M-CMS-2MS ?
14 What H4100 IGAT is man H582 NMS , that H3588 CONJ he should be clean H2135 VQY3MS ? and he which is born H3205 VWCMS of a woman H802 NFS , that H3588 CONJ he should be righteous H6663 VQY3MS ?
15 Behold H2005 IJEC , he putteth no trust H539 VHY3MS in his saints H6918 B-JMS-3MS ; yea , the heavens H8064 W-NMP are not H3808 NADV clean H2141 VQQ3MP in his sight H5869 B-CMD-3MS .
16 How much more H637 CONJ abominable H8581 VNPMS and filthy H444 W-VNPMS is man H376 NMS , which drinketh H8354 VQPMS iniquity H5766 NFS like water H4325 KD-NMP ?
17 I will show H2331 VPI1MS-2MS thee , hear H8085 VQI2MS me ; and that H2088 W-PMS which I have seen H2372 VQQ1MS I will declare H5608 W-VPI1MS ;
18 Which H834 RPRO wise H2450 AMP men have told H5046 VHY3MP from their fathers H1 M-CMP-3MP , and have not H3808 W-NPAR hid H3582 VPQ3MP it :
19 Unto whom alone H905 L-CMS-3MP the earth H776 D-GFS was given H5414 VNQ3FS , and no H3808 W-NPAR stranger H2114 VQPMS passed H5674 VQQ3MS among H8432 B-CMS-3MP them .
20 The wicked man H7563 AMS travaileth with pain H2342 VTPMS all H3605 NMS his days H3117 CMP , and the number H4557 W-CMS of years H8141 NFP is hidden H6845 VNP3MP to the oppressor H6184 LD-AMS .
21 A dreadful H6343 NMP sound H6963 CMS is in his ears H241 B-CMD-3MS : in prosperity H7965 BD-NMS the destroyer H7703 VQPMS shall come upon H935 VQY3MS-3MS him .
22 He believeth H539 VHY3MS not H3808 NADV that he shall return H7725 VQFC out of H4480 PREP-1MS darkness H2822 NMS , and he H1931 PPRO-3MS is waited for H6822 W-VWPMS of H413 PREP the sword H2719 GFS .
23 He H1931 PPRO-3MS wandereth abroad H5074 VQPMS for bread H3899 LD-NMS , saying , Where H346 is it ? he knoweth H3045 VQQ3MS that H3588 CONJ the day H3117 NMS of darkness H2822 NMS is ready H3559 NMS at his hand H3027 B-CFS-3MS .
24 Trouble H6862 AMS and anguish H4691 W-NFS shall make him afraid H1204 VPY3MP-3MS ; they shall prevail against H8630 VQY2MS-3MS him , as a king H4428 K-NMS ready H6264 AMS to the battle H3593 LD-NMS .
25 For H3588 CONJ he stretcheth out H5186 VQQ3MS his hand H3027 CFS-3MS against H413 PREP God H410 EDS , and strengtheneth himself H1396 VHY3MS against H413 PREP the Almighty H7706 EDS .
26 He runneth H7323 VQY3MS upon H413 PREP-3MS him , even on his neck H6677 B-NMS , upon the thick H5672 B-CMS bosses H1354 CMP of his bucklers H4043 CMP-3MS :
27 Because H3588 CONJ he covereth H3680 VPQ3MS his face H6440 CMS-3MS with his fatness H2459 B-CMS-3MS , and maketh H6213 W-VQY3MS collops of fat H6371 NFS on H5921 PREP his flanks H3689 NMS .
28 And he dwelleth in H7931 W-VQY3MS desolate H3582 VNPFP cities H5892 GFP , and in houses which H1004 NMP no H3808 NADV man inhabiteth H3427 VQY3MP , which H834 RPRO are ready H6257 VTQ3MP to become heaps H1530 L-NMP .
29 He shall not H3808 ADV be rich H6238 VQY3MS , neither H3808 W-NADV shall his substance H2428 CMS-3MS continue H6965 VQY3MS , neither H3808 ADV shall he prolong H5186 VQY3MS the perfection H4512 CMS-3MP thereof upon the earth H776 LD-NFS .
30 He shall not H3808 ADV depart H5493 VQY3MS out of H4480 PREP-1MS darkness H2822 NMS ; the flame H7957 NFS shall dry up H3001 VPY3FS his branches H3127 CFS-3MS , and by the breath H7307 B-CMS of his mouth H6310 CMS-3MS shall he go away H5493 W-VQY3MS .
31 Let not H408 NPAR him that is deceived H8582 VNQ3MS trust H539 VHI3MS in vanity H7723 BD-NMS : for H3588 CONJ vanity H7723 NMS shall be H1961 VQY3FS his recompense H8545 CFS-3MS .
32 It shall be accomplished H4390 VNY3FS before H3808 ADV his time H3117 CMS-3MS , and his branch H3712 W-CFS-3MS shall not H3808 NADV be green H7488 VPQ3FS .
33 He shall shake off H2554 VQY3MS his unripe grape H1154 CMS-3MS as the vine H1612 KD-NMS , and shall cast off H7993 W-VHI3MS his flower H5328 CFS-3MS as the olive H2132 KD-NMS .
34 For H3588 CONJ the congregation H5712 CFS of hypocrites H2611 NMS shall be desolate H1565 AMS , and fire H784 W-NMS shall consume H398 VQQ3FS the tabernacles H168 CMP of bribery H7810 NMS .
35 They conceive H2029 VQFA mischief H5999 NMS , and bring forth H3205 W-VQFA vanity H205 NMS , and their belly H990 W-CFS-3MP prepareth H3559 VHY3FS deceit H4820 NFS .
