For now it will be heavy above the sand of the seas: for this my words were rash.

For the arrows of the Almighty are with me, which their anger drank up my spirit: the terrors of God will be prepared for me.

Shall the wild ass bray at grass? if the ox will low over his provender?

Who will give my asking shall come? and will God give my expectation?

And God will, and he will crush me; will he let his hand remain, and will he cut me off?

And it will yet be my consolation, and I shall exult in pain: he will not spare; for I hid not the words of of the Holy One.

To him melting, mercy from his friend; and he will forsake the fear of the Almighty.

Being darkened because of ice, upon them the snow will be hid:

In the time they will flow of they became extinct: in its heat they were extinguished from their place.

The paths of their way will turn aside; they will go up into desolation and perish.

They were ashamed for trusting; they came even to it, they will be put to shame.

each ye me, and I will be silent: and what I erred in, cause me to understand.

How forcible were words of uprightness! and what will reproving from you prove?

Will ye purpose to reprove words, and for the spirit of the words of him despairing?

But ye will cause the orphans to fall, and ye will dig for your friend.

As the servant will gape for the shadow, and as the hireling will wait for his work:

My days were swift above a weaver's shuttle, and will finish with no more of hope.

The cloud will end and will go away: thus he shall go down to hades and shall not come up.

Also I will not restrain my mouth; I will speak in the straitness of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.

Am I the sea, or a dragon, that thou wilt set a watch over me?

And thou didst terrify me with dreams, and thou wilt make me afraid with visions:

And my soul will choose strangling; death rather than my bones.

What is man that thou wilt magnify him? and that thou wilt set thy heart to him?

And thou wilt review him for the mornings, and thou wilt try him for the moments.

How long wilt thou not look away from me? wilt thou not desist from me even to my swallowing down my spittle?

And why wilt thou not lift up my transgression and pass over mine iniquity? for now I shall lie down to the dust; and thou soughtest me and I was not

And Bildad the Shuhite will answer and say,

How long wilt thou speak these things? and the great spirit of the words of thy mouth?

Will God pervert judgment? and if the Almighty will pervert justice?

If thy sons sinned to him, and he will send them away by the hand of their transgression;

If thou wert pure and upright, for now he will awake for thee and requite the habitation of thy justice.

While yet in its greenness it shall not break off, and it will dry up before grass.

It was moist before the sun, and its sprout will come forth upon his garden.

Behold, God will not reject the blameless one, and he will not take hold upon the hand of those doing evil:

And Job will answer and say,

Moving the earth from her place, and her pillars will tremble;

Saying to the sun, and it shall not rise; and for the stars he will seal them up

Behold, he will pass by me, and I shall not see: and he will glide on and I shall not understand for him.

Behold, he will catch and who shall turn him? and who shall say to him, What wilt thou do?

God will not turn back his anger, the helpers of pride bowed down under him.

Whom, if I was just, I shall not answer; I will make supplication to my judge.

If I called and he will answer me, I shall not believe that he will give ear to my voice.

Who will assail me with tempest, and he multiplied my wounds without cause.

He will not give me to draw in my spirit, for he will fill me with bitterness.

If I shall be just, my mouth shall condemn me: I am blameless, and he will declare me perverse.

If the scourge shall fall suddenly, he will deride at the trial of the innocent

The earth was given into the hand of the unjust one: he will cover the faces of her judges; if not now, who is it?

They glided along with the ships of desire: as the eagle will pounce upon food.

If my saying, I will forget my complaint, I will let go my face, and I will be cheerful:

I was afraid of all my pains, I knew that thou wilt not acquit me.

Then thou wilt immerse me in the ditch, and my garments abhorred me.

There is not between us a reprover; he will put his hand upon us two.

He will take away his rod from me, and his truth shall not make me afraid.

I will speak, and I shall not fear him; but not so am I with myself.

Saying to God, Thou wilt not condemn me; make known to me for what thou wilt contend with me.

Is it good to thee that thou wilt oppress, that thou wilt despise the labor of thy hinds, and thou didst shine upon the counsels of the unjust?

Were eyes of flesh to thee? or wilt thou see as man saw?

That thou wilt seek for mine iniquity, and wilt search out for my sins?

Upon thy knowledge that I will not do evil; and none delivering from thy hand.

Thy hands formed me, and they will work me together round about; and thou wilt swallow me down.

Remember now, thou didst make me as day; and thou wilt turn me back to dust.

Wilt thou not weigh me out as milk, and coagulate me as cheese?

Thou wilt clothe me with skin and flesh, and thou wilt hedge me with bones and sinews.

If I sinned; and thou didst watch me, and thou wilt not acquit me from mine iniquity.

And shall it be lifted up? Thou wilt hunt me as the lion, and thou wilt turn back, thou wilt show thyself wonderful upon me.

Thou wilt renew thy testimonies before me, and thou wilt increase thy wrath upon me; changes and war with me.

Is it not my days few? He will cease; he will turn from me, and I shall be cheerful a little,

And Zophar the Naamathite will answer and say,

Shall thy empty talks cause men to be silent? and wilt thou deride and none making ashamed?

And thou wilt say, My instruction is pure, and I was clean in thine eyes.

And who Will give God speaking, and he will open his lips with thee?

And he shall announce to thee hidden things of wisdom, for they are the double for understanding. And know thou that God will set to thee from thine iniquity.

The heavens being high, what wilt thou do? Hades being deep, what wilt thou know?

For he knew men of vanity, and he will see iniquity; and will he not understand?

And man being empty will be without heart: and man will be born a wild ass's colt

And Job will answer and say,

I shall be he laughing at his neighbor, calling to God, and he will answer him: the just blameless one being laughed at

The tents to those oppressing will be secure, and confidence to those provoking God to anger: whom God will bring into his hand

Behold, he will pull down and it shall not be built up: he will shut up against man and it shall not be opened.

Behold, he will hold back upon the waters, and they will dry up: and he will send them forth and they will overturn the earth.

Leading away counselors stripped off and he will make foolish the judges

He loosed the bonds of kings, and he will gird upon their loins a girdle.

Leading away priests stripped off, and he will overthrow the mighty.

Removing the lip to the faithful, and he will take discernment of old men.

Revealing deep things from darkness, and he will bring to light the shadow of death.

Making great to the nations, and he will destroy them: he spread out to the nations, and he will guide them.

Taking away the heart of the heads of the people of the earth, and he will cause them to wander in a waste, not a way.

They will feel darkness and not light, and he will cause them to wander as one intoxicated.

Behold all mine eye saw, and mine ear heard, and it will understand for it

But I will speak to the Almighty; I shall delight to plead before God.

Who will give silence? Ye shall be silent, and it shall be to you for wisdom.

Will ye speak wickedness for God? and will ye speak deceit to him?

Will ye accept his face? will ye contend for God?

Is it good that he shall search you out?, or as he mocking against a man; will ye mock against him?

Reproving, he will reprove you if in secret ye lift up faces.

Be silent from me and I will speak what shall pass upon me.

If he shall slay me shall I not hope? only I will prove my ways to his face.

Who is he will contend with me? for now shall I be silent and expire;

Only two things thou wilt not do with me: then I shall not hide from thy face.

And call and I will answer, and I shall speak, and turn thou to me.
