Job30:17 My bones are pierced in me in the night season: and my sinews take no rest.
Job30:18 By the great force of my disease is my garment changed: it bindeth me about as the collar of my coat.
Job30:19 He hath cast me into the mire, and I am become like dust and ashes.
Job30:20 I cry unto thee, and thou dost not hear me: I stand up, and thou regardest me not.
Job30:21 Thou art become cruel to me: with thy strong hand thou opposest thyself against me.
Job30:22 Thou liftest me up to the wind; thou causest me to ride upon it, and dissolvest my substance.
Job30:23 For I know that thou wilt bring me to death, and to the house appointed for all living.
Job30:24 Howbeit he will not stretch out his hand to the grave, though they cry in his destruction.
Job30:25 Did not I weep for him that was in trouble? was not my soul grieved for the poor?
Job30:26 When I looked for good, then evil came unto me: and when I waited for light, there came darkness.
Job30:27 My bowels boiled, and rested not: the days of affliction prevented me.
Job30:28 I went mourning without the sun: I stood up, and I cried in the congregation.
Job30:29 I am a brother to dragons, and a companion to owls.
Job30:30 My skin is black upon me, and my bones are burned with heat.
Job30:31 My harp also is turned to mourning, and my organ into the voice of them that weep.
Job31:1 I made a covenant with mine eyes; why then should I think upon a maid?
Job31:2 For what portion of God is there from above? and what inheritance of the Almighty from on high?
Job31:3 Is not destruction to the wicked? and a strange punishment to the workers of iniquity?
Job31:4 Doth not he see my ways, and count all my steps?
Job31:5 If I have walked with vanity, or if my foot hath hasted to deceit;
Job31:6 Let me be weighed in an even balance that God may know mine integrity.
Job31:7 If my step hath turned out of the way, and mine heart walked after mine eyes, and if any blot hath cleaved to mine hands;
Job31:8 Then let me sow, and let another eat; yea, let my offspring be rooted out.
Job31:9 If mine heart have been deceived by a woman, or if I have laid wait at my neighbour's door;
Job31:10 Then let my wife grind unto another, and let others bow down upon her.
Job31:11 For this is an heinous crime; yea, it is an iniquity to be punished by the judges.
Job31:12 For it is a fire that consumeth to destruction, and would root out all mine increase.
Job31:13 If I did despise the cause of my manservant or of my maidservant, when they contended with me;
Job31:14 What then shall I do when God riseth up? and when he visiteth, what shall I answer him?
Job31:15 Did not he that made me in the womb make him? and did not one fashion us in the womb?
Job31:16 If I have withheld the poor from their desire, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail;
Job31:17 Or have eaten my morsel myself alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof;
Job31:18 (For from my youth he was brought up with me, as with a father, and I have guided her from my mother's womb;)
Job31:19 If I have seen any perish for want of clothing, or any poor without covering;
Job31:20 If his loins have not blessed me, and if he were not warmed with the fleece of my sheep;
Job31:21 If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, when I saw my help in the gate:
Job31:22 Then let mine arm fall from my shoulder blade, and mine arm be broken from the bone.
Job31:23 For destruction from God was a terror to me, and by reason of his highness I could not endure.
Job31:24 If I have made gold my hope, or have said to the fine gold, Thou art my confidence;
Job31:25 If I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because mine hand had gotten much;
Job31:26 If I beheld the sun when it shined, or the moon walking in brightness;
Job31:27 And my heart hath been secretly enticed, or my mouth hath kissed my hand:
Job31:28 This also were an iniquity to be punished by the judge: for I should have denied the God that is above.
Job31:29 If I rejoiced at the destruction of him that hated me, or lifted up myself when evil found him:
Job31:30 Neither have I suffered my mouth to sin by wishing a curse to his soul.
Job31:31 If the men of my tabernacle said not, Oh that we had of his flesh! we cannot be satisfied.
Job31:32 The stranger did not lodge in the street: but I opened my doors to the traveller.
Job31:33 If I covered my transgressions as Adam, by hiding mine iniquity in my bosom:
Job31:34 Did I fear a great multitude, or did the contempt of families terrify me, that I kept silence, and went not out of the door?
Job31:35 Oh that one would hear me! behold, my desire is, that the Almighty would answer me, and that mine adversary had written a book.
Job31:36 Surely I would take it upon my shoulder, and bind it as a crown to me.
Job31:37 I would declare unto him the number of my steps; as a prince would I go near unto him.
Job31:38 If my land cry against me, or that the furrows likewise thereof complain;
Job31:39 If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, or have caused the owners thereof to lose their life:
Job31:40 Let thistles grow instead of wheat, and cockle instead of barley. The words of Job are ended.
Job32:1 So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.
Job32:2 Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram: against Job was his wrath kindled, because he justified himself rather than God.
Job32:3 Also against his three friends was his wrath kindled, because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job.
Job32:4 Now Elihu had waited till Job had spoken, because they were elder than he.
Job32:5 When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, then his wrath was kindled.
Job32:6 And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and ye are very old; wherefore I was afraid, and durst not shew you mine opinion.
Job32:7 I said, Days should speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom.
Job32:8 But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.
Job32:9 Great men are not always wise: neither do the aged understand judgment.
Job32:10 Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will shew mine opinion.
Job32:11 Behold, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasons, whilst ye searched out what to say.
Job32:12 Yea, I attended unto you, and, behold, there was none of you that convinced Job, or that answered his words:
Job32:13 Lest ye should say, We have found out wisdom: God thrusteth him down, not man.
Job32:14 Now he hath not directed his words against me: neither will I answer him with your speeches.
Job32:15 They were amazed, they answered no more: they left off speaking.
Job32:16 When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still, and answered no more;)
Job32:17 I said, I will answer also my part, I also will shew mine opinion.
Job32:18 For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me.
Job32:19 Behold, my belly is as wine which hath no vent; it is ready to burst like new bottles.
Job32:20 I will speak, that I may be refreshed: I will open my lips and answer.
Job32:21 Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person, neither let me give flattering titles unto man.
Job32:22 For I know not to give flattering titles; in so doing my maker would soon take me away.
Job33:1 Wherefore, Job, I pray thee, hear my speeches, and hearken to all my words.
Job33:2 Behold, now I have opened my mouth, my tongue hath spoken in my mouth.
Job33:3 My words shall be of the uprightness of my heart: and my lips shall utter knowledge clearly.
