'Man' in the Bible

There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job; and this man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God and abstained from evil.

And his substance was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she-asses, and very many servants; and this man was greater than all the children of the east.

And Jehovah said to Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God and abstaineth from evil?

And Jehovah said to Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God and abstaineth from evil? and still he remaineth firm in his integrity, though thou movedst me against him, to swallow him up without cause.

And Satan answered Jehovah and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life;

To the man whose way is hidden, and whom +God hath hedged in?

Shall mortal man be more just than +God? Shall a man be purer than his Maker?

For vexation killeth the foolish man, and envy slayeth the simple.

For man is born to trouble, as the sparks fly upwards.

Behold, happy is the man whom +God correcteth; therefore despise not the chastening of the Almighty.

Hath not man a life of labour upon earth? and are not his days like the days of a hireling?

What is man, that thou makest much of him? and that thou settest thy heart upon him?

Behold, God will not cast off a perfect man, neither will he take evil-doers by the hand.

Of a truth I know it is so; but how can man be just with God?

The earth is given over into the hand of the wicked man; he covereth the faces of its judges. If not, who then is it?

For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him; that we should come together in judgment.

Hast thou eyes of flesh? or seest thou as man seeth?

Should not the multitude of words be answered? and should a man of much talk be justified?

For he knoweth vain men, and seeth wickedness when man doth not consider it;

Yet a senseless man will make bold, though man be born like the foal of a wild ass.

I am to be one that is a derision to his friend, I who call upon +God, and whom he will answer: a derision is the just upright man.

In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the spirit of all flesh of man.

Behold, he breaketh down, and it is not built again; he shutteth up a man, and there is no opening.

Will it be well if he should search you out? or as one mocketh at a man, will ye mock at him?

This also shall be my salvation, that a profane man shall not come before his face.

Man, born of woman, is of few days, and full of trouble.

Who can bring a clean man out of the unclean? Not one!

But a man dieth, and is prostrate; yea, man expireth, and where is he?

So man lieth down, and riseth not again; till the heavens be no more, they do not awake, nor are raised out of their sleep.

(If a man die, shall he live again?) all the days of my time of toil would I wait, till my change should come:

The waters wear the stones, the floods thereof wash away the dust of the earth; and thou destroyest the hope of man.

Should a wise man answer with windy knowledge, and fill his belly with the east wind,

Art thou the first man that was born? and wast thou brought forth before the hills?

What is man, that he should be pure? and he that is born of a woman, that he should be righteous?

How much less the abominable and corrupt, man, that drinketh unrighteousness like water!

All his days the wicked man is tormented, and numbered years are allotted to the violent.

And he dwelleth in desolate cities, in houses that no man inhabiteth, which are destined to become heaps.

God hath delivered me over to the iniquitous man, and hurled me into the hands of the wicked.

He breaketh me with breach upon breach; he runneth upon me like a mighty man.

Oh that there were arbitration for a man with +God, as a son of man for his friend!

But as for you all, pray come on again; and I shall not find one wise man among you.

Surely, such are the dwellings of the unrighteous man, and such the place of him that knoweth not God.

Knowest thou not this, that of old, since man was placed upon earth,

The exultation of the wicked is short, and the joy of the ungodly man but for a moment?

This is the portion of the wicked man from God, and the heritage appointed to him by God.

As for me, is my complaint to a man? or wherefore should not my spirit be impatient?

The clods of the valley are sweet unto him; and every man followeth suit after him, as there were innumerable before him.

Can a man be profitable to God? surely it is unto himself that the wise man is profitable.

But the powerful man, he had the land; and the man of high rank dwelt in it.

There would an upright man reason with him; and I should be delivered for ever from my judge.

He draweth also the mighty with his power; he riseth up, and no man is sure of life.

And how should man be just with God? Or how should he be clean that is born of a woman?

How much less man, a worm, and the son of man, a worm!

This is the portion of the wicked man with God, and the heritage of the violent, which they receive from the Almighty: --

Man putteth an end to the darkness, and exploreth to the utmost limit, the stones of darkness and of the shadow of death.

Man putteth forth his hand upon the flinty rock, he overturneth the mountains by the root.

Man knoweth not the value thereof; and it is not found in the land of the living.

And unto man he said, Lo, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.

But there is a spirit which is in man; and the breath of the Almighty giveth them understanding.

That ye may not say, We have found out wisdom; God will make him yield, not man.

Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person; neither will I give flattery to man.

Behold, I will answer thee in this, thou art not right; for +God is greater than man.

For God speaketh once, and twice, and man perceiveth it not --

That he may withdraw man from his work, and hide pride from man.

If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man his duty;

He shall pray unto +God, and he will receive him with favour; and he shall see his face with shoutings, and he will render unto man his righteousness.

Lo, all these things worketh God twice, thrice, with man,

What man is like Job? he drinketh up scorning like water,

For he hath said, It profiteth not a man if he delight himself in God.

All flesh would expire together, and man would return to the dust.

How then to him that accepteth not the persons of princes, nor regardeth the rich man more than the poor? for they are all the work of his hands.

For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he seeth all his steps.

For he doth not long consider a man, to bring him before God in judgment.

When he giveth quietness, who then will disturb? and when he hideth his face, who shall behold him? and this towards a nation, or towards a man alike;

That the ungodly man reign not, that the people be not ensnared.

Men of understanding will say to me, and a wise man who heareth me:

Thy wickedness may affect a man as thou art, and thy righteousness a son of man.

All men look at it; man beholdeth it afar off.

Which the skies pour down and drop upon man abundantly.

He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work.

Shall it be told him if I would speak? if a man so say, surely he shall be swallowed up.

Gird up now thy loins like a man; and I will demand of thee, and inform thou me.

To cause it to rain on the earth, where no one is; on the wilderness wherein there is not a man;

Gird up now thy loins like a man: I will demand of thee, and inform thou me.
