Now, Eyob, mark my words,
listen to all I urge.
2Here am I with open mouth,
here is my tongue talking,
3my heart uttering what is right and true,
and my speech utterly sincere.
5Answer me, if you can;
stand up and argue with me.
6You and I before God are the same;
I too am formed of clay;
4God’s spirit made me,
and the Almighty breathes life into me.
7No fear of me need scare you;
I will not be hard on you.
8You argued, in my hearing,
for I heard you claim--
9‘I am pure and sinless,
innocent and guiltless: 10 but God picks a quarrel with me,
he treats me as his enemy,
he fastens logs to my feet,
he watches every step I take;
12and if I cry, he will not answer:
no, God conceals himself from men.’
13Now, why complain of him
for never answering your cry?
14God has one mode of speech;
yes, and if man heeds it not, another.
15In dreams, in visions of the night,
when men fall into trances,
slumbering on their beds,
16he reveals things to them,
and sends them awful warnings,
17to draw them back from evil,
and make them give up pride,
18to save their souls from death,
their lives from rushing on their doom.
19Or, man is chastened on a bed of pain,
his limbs are all benumbed.
20till his soul turns from food,
and even dainty dishes he abhors;
21his flesh grows lean and foul,
his bones stick out;
22his life is on the verge of death,
near the destroying angels.
23But another angel comes to his aid,
one of God’s thousand angels;
he tells the man his faults,
24and then in pity intercedes for him,
that his life may be saved from death,
since he has found a ransom for the man.
25Then his flesh turns fresher than a child’s,
his early strength returns;
26he prays to God and wins his 26 favour,
he worships in his presence joyfully;
he tells men how God saved him,
27singing aloud to others,
‘I sinned, I went astray,
but he has not punished me;
28he saved my soul from death,
and let me see the dear light of the living.’
29Now God does all this over and again,
twice, thrice, for men,
30to bring them back from death
into the sunshine of life.”
