Job 13:4 Cross References - ECB

⁴ and yet, you are patchers of falsehoods, you all - worthless healers.

¹⁶ Answer not a false witness against your friend.

⁷ Remember, I pray you, whoever destructs, being innocent? or, Where are the straight cut off? ⁸ Even as I see, they who plow mischief and seed toil, harvest thus. ⁹ By the breath of Elohah, they destruct and by the spirit/wind of his nostrils, they finish off. ¹⁰ The roaring of the lion and the voice of the roaring lion and the teeth of the whelps - all are pulled. ¹¹ Without prey, the old lion destructs, and the whelps of the roaring lion separate.

¹ Call, I beseech, if there be any who answer you; and to which of the holy do you face? ² For vexation slaughters the foolish and envy deathifies the enticed. ³ I see the foolish taking root; but suddenly I curse his habitation of rest. ⁴ His children are far from salvation - crushed in the portal, none to rescue them; ⁵ whose harvest the famished eat and even take it through the thorns and the robber gulps their valuables.

²¹ Surely now you are naught; you see my casting down and awe.

³ El - twists he judgment? Or Shadday - twists he justness? ⁴ If your children sin against him and he sends them away by the hand of their rebellion;

² I hear many such as these; sighers of toil - all of you.

⁵ Yes, the light of the wicked extinguishes and the flame of his fire illuminates not; ⁶ the light darkens in his tent and his lamp extinguishes with him; ⁷ the paces of his strength constrict and his own counsel casts him down. ⁸ For he is sent into a net by his own feet and he walks on a netting; ⁹ the snare holds him by the heel and the robber prevails against him; ¹⁰ his cord is hidden in the earth - his trap in the path. ¹¹ Terrors frighten him all around and scatter him to his feet; ¹² his strength famishes and calamity prepares at his side. ¹³ It devours the strength of his veins - the firstbirthed of death devours his veins. ¹⁴ His confidence is torn from his tent and paces him to the sovereign of terrors. ¹⁵ It tabernacles in his tent without him; sulphur is winnowed on his habitation of rest. ¹⁶ His roots wither below and above his harvest is clipped: ¹⁷ his memorial destructs from the earth and he has no name at the face of the outways: ¹⁸ he is exiled from light into darkness and chased from the world. ¹⁹ He has neither son nor posterity among his people, nor survivors in his sojournings. ²⁰ They who come after him astonish at his day as the ancients whirl away. ²¹ Surely such are the tabernacles of the wicked and this is the place of him who knows not El.

²⁷ Behold, I know the fabrications and intrigues you violate against me: ²⁸ for you say, Where is the house of the volunteer? and where are the tents - the tabernacles of the wicked? ²⁹ Ask you not of them who pass by the way? Recognize you not their signs ³⁰ - that the evil are spared to the day of calamity? - to be brought forth to the day of fury? ³¹ Who tells his way to his face? Who shalams him for what he works? ³² Yet he - he is brought to the tomb and watches in the heap: ³³ the clods of the wadi sweeten to him and he draws all humanity after him - innumerable at his face. ³⁴ How then sigh you over me in vain, seeing that treason survives in your responses?

⁶ Gratuitously you take a pledge from your brother and strip the naked of their clothing: ⁷ you give the languid no water to drink; you withhold bread from the famished. ⁸ The man of arm has the earth and the exalted face settles therein: ⁹ you send widows away empty and crush the arms of the orphan. ¹⁰ So snares surround you and sudden dread terrifies you: ¹¹ or darkness, you see not; and abundance of waters cover you. ¹² Is not Elohah in the height of the heavens? See the head of the stars - how high! ¹³ And you say, El knows what? Judges he through the dripping darkness? ¹⁴ Thick clouds are his covering that he not be seen; and he walks in the circle of the heavens. ¹⁵ Regard you the eternal way which mischievous men have trodden? ¹⁶ - who were plucked from time? - whose foundation was poured with a flood? ¹⁷ Who says to El, Turn from us? What does Shadday for them? ¹⁸ Yet he fills their houses with good; but the counsel of the wicked is far from me: ¹⁹ the just see and cheer; and the innocent deride. ²⁰ Surely our opponent is not cut off, and fire consumes them who remain. ²¹ I beseech, be accustomed with him and shalam; thereby good comes to you. ²² I beseech you, receive the torah from his mouth and set his sayings in your heart. ²³ If you return to Shadday, you are built up; remove wickedness far from your tents: ²⁴ so as to set your diggings as dust - as the rocks of the wadies of Ophir. ²⁵ Yes, Shadday becomes your diggings and silver your strengths. ²⁶ For then you have your delight in Shadday - lift your face to Elohah. ²⁷ Intreat to him and he hears you shalam your vows: ²⁸ and cut a saying and it rises to you; and the light illuminates your ways. ²⁹ When abased, say, This is arrogance! - and he saves the downcast eye; ³⁰ he rescues the island of the innocent; it escapes by the purity of your palms.

⁶⁹ the arrogant patch falsehood against me; I guard your precepts with my whole heart:

¹⁴ and they heal the breeching of my people slightly, saying, Shalom! Shalom! when there is no shalom.

²² Is there no balm in Gilad? Is there no healer there? Why ascends not the health of the daughter of my people?

¹³ - no one pleads your cause - bandages you, no bandage healers.

¹¹ Ascend into Gilad, and take balm, O virgin, the daughter of Misrayim: you abound your healers in vain for they bandage you not.

⁴ you neither strengthen the worn nor heal the sick; nor bind the broken nor restore the expelled; nor seek you the lost: and with severity and with tyranny you subjugate them.

¹³ And Ephrayim sees his sickness and Yah Hudah sees his sore; and Ephrayim goes to the Ashshuri and sends to sovereign Yareb to plead: yet he can neither heal you nor cure you of your sore.

¹⁷ And Yah Shua hears, and he words to them, The able need no healer, but they who are ill: I come not to call the just, but sinners to repentance.
