Job 15 (kjv)

Then answeredH6030 EliphazH464 the TemaniteH8489, and saidH559,2Should a wise manH2450 utterH6030 vainH7307 knowledgeH1847, and fillH4390 his bellyH990 with the east windH6921?3Should he reasonH3198 with unprofitableH5532 talkH1697? or with speechesH4405 wherewith he can do no goodH3276?4Yea, thou castest offH6565 fearH3374, and restrainestH1639 prayerH7881 beforeH6440 GodH410.5For thy mouthH6310 utterethH502 thine iniquityH5771, and thou choosestH977 the tongueH3956 of the craftyH6175.6Thine own mouthH6310 condemnethH7561 thee, and not I: yea, thine own lipsH8193 testifyH6030 against thee.7Art thou the firstH7223 H7223 manH120 that was bornH3205? or wast thou madeH2342 beforeH6440 the hillsH1389?8Hast thou heardH8085 the secretH5475 of GodH433? and dost thou restrainH1639 wisdomH2451 to thyself?9What knowestH3045 thou, that we knowH3045 not? what understandestH995 thou, which is not in us?10With us are both the grayheadedH7867 and very agedH3453 men, muchH3524 elderH3117 than thy fatherH1.11Are the consolationsH8575 of GodH410 smallH4592 with thee? is there any secretH328 thingH1697 with thee?12Why doth thine heartH3820 carry thee awayH3947? and what do thy eyesH5869 wink atH7335,13That thou turnestH7725 thy spiritH7307 against GodH410, and lettest such wordsH4405 go outH3318 of thy mouthH6310?14What is manH582, that he should be cleanH2135? and he which is bornH3205 of a womanH802, that he should be righteousH6663?15Behold, he putteth no trustH539 in his saintsH6918; yea, the heavensH8064 are not cleanH2141 in his sightH5869.16How much more abominableH8581 and filthyH444 is manH376, which drinkethH8354 iniquityH5766 H5766 like waterH4325?

17I will shewH2331 thee, hearH8085 me; and that which I have seenH2372 I will declareH5608;18Which wiseH2450 men have toldH5046 from their fathersH1, and have not hidH3582 it:19Unto whom alone the earthH776 was givenH5414, and no strangerH2114 passedH5674 amongH8432 them.20The wickedH7563 man travailethH2342 with pain all his daysH3117, and the numberH4557 of yearsH8141 is hiddenH6845 to the oppressorH6184.21A dreadfulH6343 soundH6963 is in his earsH241: in prosperityH7965 the destroyerH7703 shall comeH935 upon him.22He believethH539 not that he shall returnH7725 out of darknessH2822, and he is waitedH6822 for of the swordH2719.23He wandereth abroadH5074 for breadH3899, saying, Where is it? he knowethH3045 that the dayH3117 of darknessH2822 is readyH3559 at his handH3027.24TroubleH6862 and anguishH4691 shall make him afraidH1204; they shall prevailH8630 against him, as a kingH4428 readyH6264 to the battleH3593.25For he stretcheth outH5186 his handH3027 against GodH410, and strengthenethH1396 himself against the AlmightyH7706.26He runnethH7323 upon him, even on his neckH6677, upon the thickH5672 bossesH1354 of his bucklersH4043:27Because he coverethH3680 his faceH6440 with his fatnessH2459, and makethH6213 collops of fatH6371 on his flanksH3689.28And he dwellethH7931 in desolateH3582 citiesH5892, and in housesH1004 which no man inhabitethH3427, which are readyH6257 to become heapsH1530.29He shall not be richH6238, neither shall his substanceH2428 continueH6965, neither shall he prolongH5186 the perfectionH4512 thereof upon the earthH776.30He shall not departH5493 out of darknessH2822; the flameH7957 shall dry upH3001 his branchesH3127, and by the breathH7307 of his mouthH6310 shall he go awayH5493.31Let not him that is deceivedH8582 trustH539 in vanityH7723: for vanityH7723 shall be his recompenceH8545.32It shall be accomplishedH4390 beforeH3808 his timeH3117, and his branchH3712 shall not be greenH7488.33He shall shake offH2554 his unripe grapeH1154 as the vineH1612, and shall cast offH7993 his flowerH5328 as the oliveH2132.34For the congregationH5712 of hypocritesH2611 shall be desolateH1565, and fireH784 shall consumeH398 the tabernaclesH168 of briberyH7810.35They conceiveH2029 mischiefH5999, and bring forthH3205 vanityH205, and their bellyH990 preparethH3559 deceitH4820.
