<TITLE>Job 04</TITLE><BR>Job 4<BR>1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said,<BR>2 If we assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieved? but who can withhold himself from speaking?<BR>3 Behold, thou hast instructed many, and thou hast strengthened the weak hands.<BR>4 Thy words have upholden him that was falling, and thou hast strengthened the feeble knees.<BR>5 But now it is come upon thee, and thou faintest; it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled.<BR>6 Is not this thy fear, thy confidence, thy hope, and the uprightness of thy ways?<BR>7 Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent? or where were the righteous cut off?<BR>8 Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same.<BR>9 By the blast of God they perish, and by the breath of his nostrils are they consumed.<BR>10 The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion, and the teeth of the young lions, are broken.<BR>11 The old lion perisheth for lack of prey, and the stout lion's whelps are scattered abroad.<BR>12 Now a thing was secretly brought to me, and mine ear received a little thereof.<BR>13 In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falleth on men,<BR>14 Fear came upon me, and trembling, which made all my bones to shake.<BR>15 Then a spirit passed before my face; the hair of my flesh stood up:<BR>16 It stood still, but I could not discern the form thereof: an image was before mine eyes, there was silence, and I heard a voice, saying,<BR>17 Shall mortal man be more just than God? shall a man be more pure than his maker?<BR>18 Behold, he put no trust in his servants; and his angels he charged with folly:<BR>19 How much less in them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, which are crushed before the moth?<BR>20 They are destroyed from morning to evening: they perish for ever without any regarding it.<BR>21 Doth not their excellency which is in them go away? they die, even without wisdom.<BR><BR><BR>
