'Man' in the Bible

A man there hath been in the land of Uz -- Job his name -- and that man hath been perfect and upright -- both fearing God, and turning aside from evil.

and his substance is seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred pairs of oxen, and five hundred she-asses, and a service very abundant; and that man is greater than any of the sons of the east.

And Jehovah saith unto the Adversary, 'Hast thou set thy heart against My servant Job because there is none like him in the land, a man perfect and upright, fearing God, and turning aside from evil?'

And Jehovah saith unto the Adversary, 'Hast thou set thy heart unto My servant Job because there is none like him in the land, a man perfect and upright, fearing God and turning aside from evil? and still he is keeping hold on his integrity, and thou dost move Me against him to swallow him up for nought!'

And the Adversary answereth Jehovah and saith, 'A skin for a skin, and all that a man hath he doth give for his life.

To a man whose way hath been hidden, And whom God doth shut up?

'Is mortal man than God more righteous? Than his Maker is a man cleaner?

For man to misery is born, And the sparks go high to fly.

Lo, the happiness of mortal man, God doth reprove him: And the chastisement of the Mighty despise not,

Is there not a warfare to man on earth? And as the days of an hireling his days?

What is man that Thou dost magnify him? And that Thou settest unto him Thy heart?

I have sinned, what do I to Thee, O watcher of man? Why hast Thou set me for a mark to Thee, And I am for a burden to myself -- and what?

Truly I have known that it is so, And what -- is man righteous with God?

But if a man like myself -- I answer him, We come together into judgment.

Eyes of flesh hast Thou? As man seeth -- seest Thou?

As the days of man are Thy days? Thy years as the days of a man?

Is a multitude of words not answered? And is a man of lips justified?

And empty man is bold, And the colt of a wild ass man is born.

In whose hand is the breath of every living thing, And the spirit of all flesh of man.'

Lo, He breaketh down, and it is not built up, He shutteth against a man, And it is not opened.

Is it good that He doth search you, If, as one mocketh at a man, ye mock at Him?

Man, born of woman! Of few days, and full of trouble!

And a man dieth, and becometh weak, And man expireth, and where is he?

And man hath lain down, and riseth not, Till the wearing out of the heavens they awake not, Nor are roused from their sleep.

If a man dieth -- doth he revive? All days of my warfare I wait, till my change come.

Stones have waters worn away, Their outpourings wash away the dust of earth, And the hope of man Thou hast destroyed.

Doth a wise man answer with vain knowledge? And fill with an east wind his belly?

The first man art thou born? And before the heights wast thou formed?

What is man that he is pure, And that he is righteous, one born of woman?

Also -- surely abominable and filthy Is man drinking as water perverseness.

And he reasoneth for a man with God, And a son of man for his friend.

Return, and come in, I pray you, And I find not among you a wise man.

This hast thou known from antiquity? Since the placing of man on earth?

This is the portion of a wicked man from God. And an inheritance appointed him by God.

I -- to man is my complaint? and if so, wherefore May not my temper become short?

Sweet to him have been the clods of the valley, And after him every man he draweth, And before him there is no numbering.

To God is a man profitable, Because a wise man to himself is profitable?

As to the man of arm -- he hath the earth, And the accepted of face -- he dwelleth in it.

And what? is man righteous with God? And what? is he pure -- born of a woman?

How much less man -- a grub, And the son of man -- a worm!

This is the portion of wicked man with God, And the inheritance of terrible ones From the Mighty they receive.

A stream hath broken out from a sojourner, Those forgotten of the foot, They were low, from man they wandered.

Man hath not known its arrangement, Nor is it found in the land of the living.

And He saith to man: -- 'Lo, fear of the Lord, that is wisdom, And to turn from evil is understanding.'

Surely a spirit is in man, And the breath of the Mighty One Doth cause them to understand.

Lest ye say, We have found wisdom, God doth thrust him away, not man.

Let me not, I pray you, accept the face of any, Nor unto man give flattering titles,

Lo, in this thou hast not been righteous, I answer thee, that greater is God than man.

To turn aside man from doing, And pride from man He concealeth.

If there is by him a messenger, An interpreter -- one of a thousand, To declare for man his uprightness:

He maketh supplication unto God, And He accepteth him. And he seeth His face with shouting, And He returneth to man His righteousness.

Lo, all these doth God work, Twice -- thrice with man,

Who is a man like Job? He drinketh scoffing like water,

For he hath said, 'It doth not profit a man, When he delighteth himself with God.'

For the work of man he repayeth to him, And according to the path of each He doth cause him to find.

Expire doth all flesh together, And man to dust returneth.

For He doth not suffer man any more, To go unto God in judgment,

And He giveth rest, and who maketh wrong? And hideth the face, and who beholdeth it? And in reference to a nation and to a man, It is the same.

From the reigning of a profane man, From the snares of a people;

Let men of heart say to me, And a wise man is hearkening to me.

For a man like thyself is thy wickedness, And for a son of man thy righteousness.

All men have looked on it, Man looketh attentively from afar.

Which clouds do drop, They distil on man abundantly.

Into the hand of every man he sealeth, For the knowledge by all men of His work.

Is it declared to Him that I speak? If a man hath spoken, surely he is swallowed up.

Gird, I pray thee, as a man, thy loins, And I ask thee, and cause thou Me to know.

To cause it to rain on a land -- no man, A wilderness -- no man in it.

Gird, I pray thee, as a man, thy loins, I ask thee, and cause thou Me to know.
