ULT by section JOB 4:1

The Book of Job 4

4 And Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said,

2 If a word is tried with you, will you tire?

But to refrain from a word, who is able?

3 Behold, you have instructed many,

you have strengthened weak hands.

4 Your words have upheld the one stumbling,

and buckling knees you have strengthened.

5 But now it comes to you and you tire;

it touches you and you panic.

6 Is not your fear your confidence,

your hope, even the integrity of your ways?

7 Remember, now: Who, he being innocent, has perished?

And when were the righteous destroyed?

8 According to what I have seen, the ones plowing misery

and sowing trouble reap it.

9 By the breath of God they perish,

and by the blast of his nose they cease to be.

10 The roar of the lion! The voice of the fierce lion!

But the teeth of the young lions are broken.

11 The strong lion perishes for lack of prey,

and the cubs of the lioness are scattered.

12 Now a word was confided to me,

and my ear received a whisper of it.

13 In troubling thoughts from visions of the night,

in the falling of deep sleep upon men,

14 fear happened to me, and trembling,

and it frightened all my bones.

15 And a spirit was gliding before my face;

the hair of my flesh was bristling.

16 It was standing still, but I was not recognizing its appearance.

An image was in front of my eyes.

There was silence, then I heard a voice:

17 ‘Will a man be more righteous than God?

If a man will be more pure than his Maker?’

18 Behold, he does not trust in his servants,

and he charges his angels with folly.

19 How much less dwellers in houses of clay

that have their foundation in the dust!

They crumble them before a moth!

20 From morning to evening they are destroyed;

they perish forever without anyone noticing.

21 Is not their tent cord pulled up away from them?

They will die, and not in wisdom.
