1 Then Eliphaz H464 EMS the Temanite H8489 D-LMS answered H6030 W-VQY3MS and said H559 W-VQY3MS ,
2 Can a man H1397 NMS be profitable H5532 VQY3MS unto God H410 IL-NMS , as he that H3588 CONJ is wise H7919 M-VHPMS may be profitable H5532 VQY3MS unto H5921 PREP-3MP himself ?
3 Is it any pleasure H2656 D-NMS to the Almighty H7706 L-EDS , that H3588 CONJ thou art righteous H6663 VQY2MS ? or H518 W-PART is it gain H1215 NMS to him , that H3588 CONJ thou makest thy ways perfect H8552 VHY2MS ?
4 Will he reprove H3198 VHY3MS-2MS thee for fear H3374 DM-CFS-2MS of thee ? will he enter H935 VQY3MS with H5973 PREP-2MS thee into judgment H4941 BD-NMS ?
5 Is not H3808 I-NADV thy wickedness H7451 CFS-2MS great H7227 AFS ? and thine iniquities H5771 L-CMP-2MS infinite H369 W-ADV ?
6 For H3588 CONJ thou hast taken a pledge H2254 VQY2MS from thy brother H251 CMP-2MS for naught H2600 ADV , and stripped H6584 VHY2MS the naked H6174 AMP of their clothing H899 W-CMP .
7 Thou hast not H3808 NADV given water H4325 OMD to the weary H5889 AMS to drink H8248 VHY2MS , and thou hast withheld H4513 VQY2MS bread H3899 NMS from the hungry H7457 WM-AMS .
8 But as for the mighty H2220 NFS man H376 W-NMS , he had the earth H776 D-GFS ; and the honorable man H5375 W-VWCMS dwelt H3427 VQY3MS in it .
9 Thou hast sent widows away H7971 VPQ2MS empty H7387 ADV , and the arms H2220 W-CFP of the fatherless H3490 NMP have been broken H1792 VUY3MS .
10 Therefore H5921 PREP snares H6341 NMP are round about H5439 ADV-2MS thee , and sudden H6597 ADV fear H6343 NMS troubleth H926 W-VPY3MS-2MS thee ;
11 Or H176 CONJ darkness H2822 NMS , that thou canst not H3808 ADV see H7200 VQY2MS ; and abundance H8229 W-CFS of waters H4325 OMD cover H3680 VPY3FS-2MS thee .
12 Is not H3808 I-NADV God H433 NAME-4MS in the height H1363 CMS of heaven H8064 NMS ? and behold H7200 W-VQI2MS the height H7218 NMS of the stars H3556 NMP , how H3588 CONJ high they are H7311 VQQ3MP !
13 And thou sayest H559 W-VQQ2MS , How H4100 IPRO doth God H410 EDS know H3045 VQQ3MS ? can he judge H8199 VQY3MS through H1157 D-PREP the dark cloud H6205 NMS ?
14 Thick clouds H5645 NMP are a covering H5643 NMS to him , that he seeth H7200 VQY3MS not H3808 W-NPAR ; and he walketh H1980 VTY3MS in the circuit H2329 W-CMS of heaven H8064 NMP .
15 Hast thou marked H8104 VQY2MS the old H5769 NMS way H734 D-CMS which H834 RPRO wicked H205 NMS men H4962 CMP have trodden H1869 VQQ3MP ?
16 Which H834 RPRO were cut down H7059 VUQ3MP out of H3808 W-NPAR time H6256 NMS , whose foundation H3247 CMS-3MP was overflown H3332 VHY3MS with a flood H5104 NMS :
17 Which said H559 D-VQPMP unto God H410 L-NMS , Depart H5493 VQI2MS from H4480 M-PREP-3MS us : and what H4100 W-IPRO can the Almighty H7706 EDS do H6466 VQY3MS for them ?
18 Yet he H1931 W-PPRO-3MS filled H4390 VPQ3MS their houses H1004 CMP-3MP with good H2896 AMS things : but the counsel H6098 W-CFS of the wicked H7563 AMP is far H7368 AMP from H4480 PREP-1MS me .
19 The righteous H6662 AMP see H7200 VQY3MP it , and are glad H8055 W-VQY3MP : and the innocent H5355 W-AMS laugh them to scorn H3932 VQY3MS .
20 Whereas H518 PART our substance H7009 CMS-1MP is not H3808 NADV cut down H3582 VNQ3MS , but the remnant H3499 W-CMS-3MP of them the fire H784 NMS consumeth H398 VQQ3FS .
21 Acquaint H5532 VHI2MS now H4994 IJEC thyself with H5973 PREP-3MS him , and be at peace H7999 W-VQI2MS : thereby good H2896 NFS shall come H935 VQY3FS-2MS unto thee .
22 Receive H3947 VQI2MS , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , the law H8451 NFS from his mouth H6310 M-CMS-3MS , and lay up H7760 W-VQI2MS his words H561 CMP-3MS in thine heart H3824 B-CMS-2MS .
23 If H518 PART thou return H7725 VQY2MS to H5704 PREP the Almighty H7706 EDS , thou shalt be built up H1129 VNY2MS , thou shalt put away iniquity H5766 NFS far H7368 VHY2MS from thy tabernacles H168 M-CMS-2MS .
24 Then shalt thou lay up H7896 W-VQI2MS gold H1220 NMS as H5921 PREP dust H6083 NMS , and the gold of Ophir H211 LFS as the stones H6697 WB-CMS of the brooks H5158 NMP .
25 Yea , the Almighty H7706 EDS shall be H1961 W-VQQ3MS thy defense H1220 CMP-2MS , and thou shalt have plenty H8443 NFP of silver H3701 W-CMS .
26 For H3588 CONJ then H227 ADV shalt thou have thy delight H6026 VTY2MS in H5921 PREP the Almighty H7706 EDS , and shalt lift up H5375 W-VQY2MS thy face H6440 CMP-2MS unto H413 PREP God H433 NAME-4MS .
27 Thou shalt make thy prayer H6279 VHY2MS unto H413 PREP-3MS him , and he shall hear H8085 W-VQY3MS-2MS thee , and thou shalt pay H7999 VPY2MS thy vows H5088 W-CMP-2MS .
28 Thou shalt also decree H1504 W-VQY2MS a thing H562 NMS , and it shall be established H6965 W-VQI3MS unto thee : and the light H216 NMS shall shine H5050 VQQ3MS upon H5921 W-PREP thy ways H1870 CMP-2MS .
29 When H3588 CONJ men are cast down H8213 VHQ3MP , then thou shalt say H559 W-VQY3FS , There is lifting up H1466 NFS ; and he shall save H3467 VHY3MS the humble person H5869 NMD .
30 He shall deliver H4422 VPY3MS the island H336 NADV of the innocent H5355 AMS : and it is delivered H4422 W-VNQ3MS by the pureness H1252 B-CMS of thine hands H3709 CFD-2MS .
