Job’s Final Defense Continued
Job’s Final Defense Continued
- so[fn] how could I look closely upon a virgin?
- 2 is the portion of God from above or[fn] the heritage of Shaddai from on high?
- 3 the evil one and ruin for the workers of mischief?
- 4 and count all my steps?
- 5 and my foot has hastened to deceit,
- 6 the balance of justice, and let God know my blamelessness.
- 7 and my heart has walked after my eyes,
- and my hand has clung to a spot,
- 8 and let my crops be rooted out.
- 9 and at my neighbor’s doorway I have lain in wait,
- 10 and let other men kneel over her,
- 11 is a shameful act, and that is[fn]
- 12 is a fire that will consume up to Abaddon, and it would uproot all my crop.
- 13 [fn] female slave’s case when their complaint was against me,
- 14 [fn] what shall I do when God rises up? And when he enquires, how shall I answer him?
- 15 who made me in the womb make them? And did not one fashion us in the womb?
- 16 the desire of the poor from them, or[fn] I have caused the widow’s eyes to fail,
- 17 [fn] and the orphan has not eaten from it
- 18 [fn][fn] me like a father, and from my mother’s womb I guided her[fn]),
- 19 the one who perishes because of no clothing or[fn] that there is no covering for the poor,
- 20 or[fn] by means of my sheep’s fleece he has warmed himself,
- 21 because I saw my supporters at the gate,
- 22 then let my shoulder blade fall from my shoulder, and let my arm be broken from its socket.
- 23 was a dread for me, and[fn] because of his majesty.
- 24 or[fn] I have called fine gold my security,
- 25 was great or[fn] because my hand found a fortune,
- 26 the sun when it shone or[fn] at the moon moving in splendor,
- 27 [fn] and[fn]
- 28 is an iniquity to be judged, for I have deceived God above.
- 29 the ruin of the one who hated me or[fn] have exulted when evil overtook him—
- 30 [fn] I have not allowed my mouth to sin, to ask his life with a curse.
- 31 [fn] ‘[fn] someone[fn] had not been satisfied with his meat’?
- 32 I have opened my door to the traveler.
- 33 [fn] my transgressions as other human beings to hide my iniquity in my bosom
- 34 the great multitude, and the contempt of clans terrified me,
- so that I kept quiet, I did not go out of the doorway?
- 35 [fn][fn] someone hearing me! Here is my signature;
- let Shaddai answer me!
- [fn] the written communication that[fn] has written,
- 36 [fn] carry it on my shoulder; I would bind it on me like a crown.
- 37 I would approach him like a noble.
- 38 and its furrows have wept together,
- 39 or[fn] I have caused the breath of its owners to die,
- 40 and noxious weeds in place of barley.”
- The words of Job are ended.
