And he said unto her, As one of the base women speaketh, speakest thou? Blessing, shall we accept from God, and, misfortune, shall we not accept? In all this, Job sinned not with his lips.

At once are prisoners at peace, they hear not the voice of a driver:

Then, a spirit, over my face, floated along, The hair of my flesh bristled-up:

Thus to the poor hath come hope, and, perversity, hath shut her mouth.

Lo! as for this, we have searched it out - so, it is, Hear it, and know, thou, for thyself.

The earth, hath been given into the hand of a lawless one, The faces of her judges, he covereth, If not, then who is it?

Hear, I pray you, the argument of my mouth, and, to the pleadings of my lips, give heed: -

Hear ye patiently my speech, and be my declaration in your ears.

I will tell thee - hear me, Since this I have seen, I must needs declare it.

The correction meant to confound me, I must hear, but, the spirit - out of my understanding, will give me a reply.

Hear ye patiently my words, and let this be your consolation:

His bull, covereth, and causeth not aversion, His cow safely calveth, and casteth not her young;

Thou shalt make entreaty unto him, and he will hear thee, and, thy vows, shalt thou pay;

His outcry, will GOD hear, when there cometh upon him distress?

Let my wife, grind to another, and, over her, let others bend!

Surely, from my youth, he grew up to me, as to a father, and, from my birth, I acted as guide to her:

Oh that I had one to hear me, Lo! my crossmark, May, the Almighty, answer me! And would that, a book, mine opponent had written!

But, in very deed, hear, I pray thee, Job, my discourse, and, to all my words, give thou ear.

Hear, ye wise men, my words, and, ye who know, give ear unto me;

If then thou hast understanding, hear this, Give thou ear to the teaching of my words: -

Look at the heavens and see, - and survey the skies - they are higher than thou.

Howbeit, vanity, will GOD not hear, Yea, the Almighty, will not regard it.

Hear! oh hear! the raging of his voice, A growling sound also, out of his mouth, goeth forth;

And said - Hitherto, shalt thou come, and no further, - and, here, shalt thou set a limit to the majesty of thy waves?

Out of whose womb, came forth the ice? And, the hoar-frost of the heavens, who hath given it birth?

Canst thou bring forth the signs of the Zodiac each in its season? Or, the Bear and her Young, canst thou lead?

Canst thou bind the wild-ox, so that - with the ridge - shall run his cord? Or will he harrow the furrows after thee?

For she leaveth - to the earth - her eggs, and, on the dust, she letteth them be warmed;

Dealing hardly with her young, as none-of hers, In vain, her labour, without dread.

For GOD hath suffered her to forget wisdom, and given her no share in understanding.

What time, on high, she vibrateth her wings, she laugheth at the horse and his rider.

Hear thou, I pray thee, and, I, will speak, I will ask thee, and inform thou me.
