Now, Elisha, being seated in his house, and, the elders, seated with him, - when he had sent a man from before him, ere yet the messenger could come in unto him, he himself, said unto the elders - Do ye see how this son of a murderer hath sent to take away my head? See! when the messenger is coming in, close ye the door, and press him back with the door, is not the sound of his lord's feet behind him?

And there again came to be war with Gath, - where was a man of great stature, whose fingers and toes, six on each hand and foot, were four and twenty, and, he also, had been born unto the giant.

And he strengthened the fortified places, - and put therein captains, and stores of food, and oil and wine;

Yea, forty years, didst thou sustain them in the desert, they lacked nothing, - their mantles, waxed not old and, their feet, swelled not.

and they captured fortified cities and a fat soil, and took possession of houses full of every good thing, wells digged, vineyards and oliveyards and fruit-trees, in abundance, - so they did eat and were filled and became fat, and luxuriated in thy great goodness.

But, they, in their kingdom, and in thine abundant goodness which thou gavest them, and in the broad and fat land which thou didst set before them, did not serve thee, neither turned they from their wicked doings.

Then said Haman unto King Ahasuerus, There is a certain people, scattered abroad and dispersed among the peoples, throughout all the provinces of thy kingdom, - whose laws, are diverse from every people, and, the laws of the king, they observe not, for the king, therefore, it is not fit, to suffer them.

So the accuser went forth from the presence of Yahweh, - and smote Job with a sore boil, from the sole of his foot, unto his crown.

For, in the face of my food, my sighing, cometh in, and, poured out like the water, are my groans:

My soul hath refused to touch, Those things, are like disease in my food.

They have passed away with boats of paper-reed, like a vulture which rusheth upon food.

For ruin, there is contempt, in the thought of the man at ease, - ready, for such as are of faltering foot!

Doth not, the ear, try, words? even as, the palate, tasteth for itself, food?

And thou dost put - in the stocks - my feet, and observest all my paths, Against the roots of my feet, thou dost cut out a bound;

For he is thrust into a net by his own feet, and, upon a trap, he marcheth;

Round about, terrors have startled him, and have driven him to his feet.

His food, in his stomach, is changed, the gall of adders, within him!

Of his steps, my foot taketh hold, His way, have I kept, and not swerved;

Lo! as wild asses in the wilderness, they go forth with their work, eager seekers for prey, the waste plain, yieldeth them food for their young;

He hath sunken a shaft, away from the inhabitants; Places forsaken by the foot, they hang down, away from men, sway to and fro;

Eyes, became I to the, blind, and, feet to the lame, was, I!

Who used to pluck off the mallow by the bushes, with the root of the broom for their food;

On my right hand, the young brood rose up, - My feet, they thrust aside, and cast up against me their earthworks of destruction;

Verily I walked not in falsity, nor did my foot haste unto deceit: -

He putteth - in the stocks - my feet, He watcheth all my paths.

So that his life maketh loathsome his food, and his soul, dainty meat;

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.

For, by those things, he executeth judgment on peoples, He giveth food in abundance:

Who prepareth for the Raven his nourishment, - when his young ones - unto GOD - cry out, when they wander for lack of food?

And hath forgotten, that, a foot, may crush them, - or, the wild beast, tread on them!

From thence, he searcheth out food, far away, his eyes do pierce;

Shouldst give him dominion over the works of thy hands, - All things, shouldst have put under his feet:

The nations, have sunk, in the pit they had made, In the net which they had hidden, is caught their own foot.

Are all the workers of iniquity, without knowledge? devouring my people as they devour food! Upon Yahweh, have they not called.

Their own fat heart , have they shut up, - With their mouth, have they spoken proudly.

Then he stretched out the heaven, and came down, - and, thick gloom, was under his feet;

Planting my feet like hinds' feet , yea, on my high places, he caused me to stand:

I crushed them, and they were unable to rise, They fell under my feet.

For dogs have surrounded me, - An assembly of evil doers, have encircled me, They have pierced my hands and my feet,

Mine eyes, are continually unto Yahweh, - for, he, bringeth, out of the net, my feet.

My foot standeth in a level place, In the convocations, will I bless Yahweh.

And hast not shut me up in the hand of the foe, Thou hast given standing, in a roomy place, unto my feet.

Let not the foot of pride reach me, nor, the hand of the lawless, scare me away.

For, like grass, soon shall they wither, and, like green herbage, shall they fade.

Trust in Yahweh, and do good, Dwell in the land, and feed on fidelity;

For I said, Lest they rejoice over me! When my feet were tottering, against me, have they magnified themselves:

So he brought me up, Out of the destroying pit, Out of the swampy mire, - And set, upon a cliff, my feet, Making firm my steps:

My tears have been my food day and night, While it hath been said unto me all the day, Where is thy God?

He will subjugate, Peoples under us, and, Tribes of men beneath our feet.

Are the workers of iniquity, without knowledge? Devouring my people, as they devour food? Upon God, have they not called.

For thou hast rescued my soul from death, Wilt thou not rescue my feet from stumbling? That I may walk to and fro, before God, In the light of life.

The righteous man will rejoice when he hath seen an avenging, His feet, will he bathe in the blood of the lawless one: -

They, may prowl about for food, - And, if they are not satisfied, then let them whine!

He turned the sea into dry land, Through the stream, crossed they over on foot, There did we rejoice in him:

Who hath set our soul among the living, And hath not suffered, our foot, to slip.

That thou mayest bathe thy foot in blood, - The tongue of thy dogs, from the foes, hath its portion.

But they put in my food - poison! And, for my thirst, they gave for my drink - vinegar!

Thou, didst crush the heads of the Sea-Monster, Thou didst give him to be food, for the people of the deserts;

They put GOD to the proof in their heart, By asking food to their mind:

Lo! he hath smitten a rock, And waters, have gushed out, Yea, torrents, have rushed along, - Food also, can he give? Or provide flesh for his people?

The food of the mighty, each one did eat, Nourishment, sent he them to the full;

They had not turned away from what they had longed for, Yet was their food in their mouth,

Thou hast fed them with the food of tears, And hast caused them to drink the water of weeping in threefold abundance.

Then would he feed them from the marrow of the wheat, Yea, out of the rock - with honey, would I satisfy thee.

Righteousness, before him, shall march long, - That he may make, into a way, the steps of its feet.

On hands, will they bear thee up, Lest thou strike, against a stone, thy foot;
