Yet was this one speaking, when, another, came in and said, - A fire of God, fell out of the heavens, and burned up the sheep and the young men, and consumed them; and escaped am, only I alone, to tell thee.

Yet was this one speaking, when, another, came in and said, The Chaldeans, appointed three chiefs, and spread out against the camels, and took them, and, the young men, smote they with the edge of the sword; and escaped am, only I alone, to tell thee.

when lo! a great wind, came from over the desert, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they died, - and escaped am, only I alone, to tell thee.

In very deed, put forth, I pray thee thy hand, and smite unto his bone, and unto his flesh, - verily, unto thy face, will he curse thee.

If one attempt a word unto thee, wilt thou be impatient? But, to restrain speech, who, can endure?

But, now, it cometh upon thee, and thou despairest, It smiteth even thee, and thou art dismayed.

Remember, I pray thee, who, being innocent, hath perished, or when, the upright, have been cut off.

Call, I pray thee - is there one to answer thee? Or, to which of the holy ones, wilt thou turn?

In six troubles, he will rescue thee, and, in seven, there shall smite thee no misfortune:

In famine, he will ransom thee from death, and in battle from the power of the sword;

I have sinned, What can I do for thee, thou watcher of men? Wherefore hast thou set me as thine object of attack, or have I become, unto thee, a burden?

For inquire, I pray thee, of a former generation, and prepare thyself for the research of their fathers; -

Shall, they, not teach thee - tell thee, and, out of their memory, bring forth words?

If one destroy him out of his place, then will it disown him saying - I have not seen thee.

They who hate thee, shall be clothed with shame, but, the tent of the lawless, shall not be!

Is it seemly in thee, that thou shouldst oppress? that thou shouldst despise the labour of thine own hand, when, upon the counsel of the lawless, thou hast shone?

Remember, I pray thee, that, as clay, thou didst make me, and, unto dust, thou wilt cause me to return.

Yet, these things, thou didst hide in thy heart, I know that, this, hath been with thee!

Shall, thy pratings, cause men to hold their peace? When thou hast mocked, shall there be none to put thee to shame?

But, in very deed, oh that GOD would speak, that he would open his lips with thee:

That he would declare to thee the secrets of wisdom, for they are double to that which actually is, - -Know then that GOD could bring into forgetfulness for thee, a portion of thine iniquity.

And shalt rest, with none to put thee in terror, - and many shall entreat thy favour.

But, in very deed, ask, I pray thee, the beasts, and they will teach thee, and the bird of the heavens, and it will tell thee;

Or address the earth, and it will teach thee, and the fishes of the sea, will recount it to thee:

Wherefore, thy face, shouldst thou hide? Or count me, as an enemy to thee?

And yet upon such a one as this, hast thou opened thine eye? And, him, wouldst thou bring into judgment with thee?

If determined am his days, the number of his months, is with thee, Fixed times for him, thou hast appointed and he cannot go beyond.

Thou shouldst call, and, I, would answer thee, - For the work of thine own hand, thou shouldst long.

Thine own mouth shall condemn thee, and, not I, And, thine own lips, shall testify against thee.

Too small for thee, are the consolations of GOD? or a word spoken gently with thee?

How doth thine own heart carry thee away, and how thine eyes do roll!

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

Is there to be an end to windy words? Or what so strongly exciteth thee, that thou must respond?

Appoint it, I pray thee - be thou surety for me with thyself, Who is there that, on my side, can pledge himself?

Is it, for thy reverence, that he will accuse thee? will enter with thee into judgment?

For this cause, round about thee, are snares, and a dread startleth thee suddenly;

Or darkness - thou canst not see, and, a flood of waters, covereth thee.

Shew thyself to be one with him - I pray thee - and prosper, thereby, shall there come on thee blessing.

Accept, I beseech thee, from his mouth - instruction, - and lay up his sayings in thy heart.

So shall, the Almighty, become, thy precious ores, yea glittering silver unto thee!

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

And thou shalt decree a purpose, and it shall be fulfilled unto thee, and, upon thy ways, shall have shone a light;

Whom hast thou taught speech? Whose inspiration hath come from thee?

I cry out for help unto thee, and thou dost not answer, I stand still, and thou dost gaze at me;

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

Lo! I pray thee, I have opened my mouth, My tongue, with my palate, hath spoken,

Lo! my terror, will not startle thee, nor, my hand, upon thee, be heavy.

Lo! in this, thou hast not been right - let me answer thee, For, GOD, is greater than, man.

If there is anything to say, reply to me, Speak, for I desire to justify thee;

If not, do, thou, hearken unto me, Be silent, that I may teach thee wisdom.

For thou dost say, How can one profit by thee? How can I benefit, more than by my sin?

I, will answer thee plainly, and thy friends with thee.

Restrain thyself for me a little, and I will shew thee, that, yet - for GOD, there is justification,

For, of a truth - not false, are my words, One of competent knowledge, is with thee.

Yea he might even have allured thee - out of the mouth of straitness, into a wide space - no narrowness there, - and, the food set down on thy table, should have been full of fatness.

Because there is wrath, beware lest he take thee away with a stroke, Then let not, a great ransom, mislead thee.

Gird, I pray thee - like a strong man - thy loins, that I may ask thee, and inform thou me:

Have the gates of death been disclosed to thee? And, the gates of the death-shade, couldst thou descry?

Canst thou lift up, to the thick cloud, thy voice, and the overflow of waters cover thee?

Canst thou send forth the lightnings, so that they go, and say to thee, Behold us?

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

Lo! I am of no account, what shall I reply to thee? My hand, have I laid on my mouth:

Gird, I pray thee - as a strong man - thy loins, I will ask thee, and inform thou me.

Deck thyself, I pray thee, with majesty and grandeur, Yea, with dignity and splendour, thou shalt clothe thyself;

And, even I myself, will praise thee, in that thine own right hand can bring thee salvation.

Behold, I pray thee, the Hippopotamus, which I made with thee, Grass - like the ox, he eateth;

Behold, I pray thee, his strength in his loins, and his force, in the muscles of his belly;

Will he multiply unto thee supplications, or will he speak unto thee softly?

Will he solemnise a covenant with thee? Wilt thou take him for a life-long servant?

I know that, all things, thou canst do, and that no purpose can be withholden from thee.

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

By the hearing of the ear, had I heard thee, but, now, mine own eye, hath seen thee.

And it came to pass, after Yahweh had spoken these words unto Job, that Yahweh, said unto Eliphaz the Temanite, Kindled is mine anger against thee and against thy two friends, for ye have not spoken concerning me the thing that is right, like my servant Job.

Let me tell of a decree, - Yahweh, hath said unto me, My son, thou art, I, to-day, have begotten thee:

Attend to the voice of my cry, my King and my God, for, unto thee, do I pray.

O Yahweh! in the morning, shalt thou hear my voice, In the morning, will I set in order unto thee, and keep watch;

But, I, in the abounding of thy lovingkindness, will enter thy house, I will bow down towards thy holy temple, in reverence of thee:

Declare them guilty, O God, Let them fall by their own counsels, - Into the throng of their own transgressions, thrust them down, For they have rebelled against thee: -

That all may rejoice who seek refuge in thee, to times age-abiding, may shout in triumph, that thou wilt protect them, and they may leap for joy in thee who are lovers of thy Name.

For, in death, is no remembrance of thee, - In hades, who shall give thanks unto thee?

O Yahweh my God, in thee, have I sought refuge, - Save me from all my pursuers, and deliver me:

When, the assembly of peoples, gather round thee, then, above it - on high, do thou return!

Let the wrong of the lawless, I pray thee, come to an end, and establish thou him that is righteous, - for, a trier of hearts and reins, is God the righteous one.

I will rejoice and exult in thee, I will praise in song, thy Name, O most High.

When mine enemies turned back, they stumbled and perished from before thee;

Thus let them who know thy Name, put confidence in thee, that thou hast not forsaken the searchers for thee, O Yahweh.

Rise! Yahweh! let man not prevail, let the nations be judged before thee.

Thou hast seen! For, thou, mischief and misery, dost discern, to requite with thine own hand, Unto thee, doth, the unfortunate one, give himself up, To the fatherless, thou thyself, hast become a helper.

Preserve me, O GOD, for I have sought refuge in thee.

Thou wilt cause me to know, the path of life, - Fulness of joys before thee, Pleasures at thy right hand evermore.

I, have called upon thee, for thou wilt answer me, O GOD, - Incline thine ear unto me, Hear thou my speech:

I, in righteousness, shall behold thy face, Shall be satisfied when awakened by a vision of thee.

I will love thee, O Yahweh my strength!

For, as for thee, an oppressed people, thou didst save, but, looks that were lofty, layedst thou low;

For, by thee, I ran through a troop, and, by my God, I leapt over a wall.

For this cause, will I praise thee among the nations, O Yahweh, and, to thy Name, will I sweep the strings: -

The words of my mouth, and the soft utterance of my heart, shall come with acceptance, before thee, O Yahweh, my Rock and my Redeemer!

Yahweh answer thee, in the day of distress, The Name of the God of Jacob give thee safety;

Send thy help out of the sanctuary, and, out of Zion, sustain thee;

Give thee according to thy heart, and, all thy purposes, fulfil.
