³ In every place are the eyes of Jehovah observing closely the evil and the good.

¹⁷ For mine eyes are upon all their ways, and they were not hid from my face, and their iniquity was not concealed from before mine eyes.

¹⁰ I Jehovah searching the heart, trying the reins, to give to each according to his way, according to the fruit of his doings.

⁸ Behold, the eyes of the Lord Jehovah upon the sinning kingdom, and I destroyed it from the face of the earth; only that destroying, I will not destroy the house of Jacob, says Jehovah.

⁵ Darkness shall pollute it, and the shadow of death; a cloud shall dwell upon it; the obscurations of day shall terrify it

¹⁷ For the morning altogether to them the shadow of death: if it shall be known, the terrors of the shadow of death.

³ Is not destruction to the evil one? and strangeness to those working iniquity?

⁵ The foolish shall not stand before thine eyes: thou hatedst all working vanity.

¹¹ And saying, surely the darkness shall fall upon me; and the night shone about me. ¹² Also darkness shall not darken from thee; and the night shall shine as the day: as the darkness, so the light

²⁹ The way of Jehovah is a fortress to the upright one: and destruction to those doing iniquity.

² The people going in darkness saw a great light: they dwelling in the land of the shadow of death, light shone upon them.

¹⁵ Wo to those making deep to hide counsel from Jehovah, and their work was in darkness, and they will say, Who saw us? and who knew us?

²⁴ If a man shall hide in secret places and I shall not see him, says Jehovah. Do I not fill the heavens and the earth? says Jehovah.

² If they shall break through into hades, from thence shall my hand take them; and if they shall go up to the heavens, from thence I will bring them down. ³ And if they shall hide in the head of Carmel, from thence will I search and take them; and if they shall be concealed from before mine eyes in the bottom of the sea, from thence I will command the serpent, and he bit them.

²³ And then shall I confess to them that I never knew you. Go away from me, ye working iniqnity.

²⁷ And he will say, I say to you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workmen of iniquity.

⁵ Therefore judge ye nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who also, will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and make manifest the counsels of hearts: and then shall praise be to each from God.

¹³ And there is no creation invisible before him: and all things naked and exposed, neck and face to view, to the eyes of him with whom to us is the word.

¹⁵ And the kings of the earth, and the great, and the rich, and the captains of thousands, and the powerful, and every servant, and every one free, hid themselves in caves and in rocks of the mountains; ¹⁶ And they say to the mountains and rocks, Fall upon us, and hide us from the face of him sitting upon the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

¹³ And after all coming upon us for our evil deeds, and in our great guilt, for thou our God didst withhold below our iniquities, and didst give to us an escaping according to this.

³² For not a man as I; I shall answer him, we shall come together in judgment ³³ There is not between us a reprover; he will put his hand upon us two.

⁶ And he shall announce to thee hidden things of wisdom, for they are the double for understanding. And know thou that God will set to thee from thine iniquity.

¹¹ For he knew men of vanity, and he will see iniquity; and will he not understand?

²¹ Shall he judge for a man with God? and the son of man for his neighbor?

⁷ There the upright one disputed with him; and I shall be delivered forever from my judge.

¹⁰ For this, ye men of heart, hear to me: far be it to God from doing evil; and the Almighty from iniquity. ¹¹ For the work of man shall he recompense to him, and a man shall find himself according to his way. ¹² Also surely God will not do evil, and the Almighty will not pervert judgment

¹³⁷ Just art thou, O Jehovah, and upright thy judgments.

³ A broken reed he shall not break, and bedimmed flax shall he not quench it: he shall bring forth judgment to truth.

⁵ Thus said Jehovah, What iniquity found your fathers in me that they removed far off from me, and went after vanity, and they became vain?

⁷ To thee, O Jehovah, justice, and to us shame of face, as this day to the men of Judah, and to those dwelling in Jerusalem, and to all Israel being near and being far off, in all the lands where thou didst thrust them there in their transgression which they transgressed against thee. ⁸ O Jehovah, to us shame of face, to our kings, to our chiefs, and to our fathers, that we sinned against thee. ⁹ To Jehovah our God compassion and forgivenesses, for we rebelled against him.

²⁰ Surely, O man, who art thou replying against God? Shall the formation say to him having formed, Why hest thou made me so

³⁰ For this Jehovah the God of Israel said, Saying, I said, Thy house and the house of thy father shall go before me even forever: and now Jehovah said, Far be it for me; for them honoring me I will honor, and they despising me shall be contemned. ³¹ Behold, the days coming and I cut off thy seed and the seed of thy father's house from being old in thy house. ³² And thou lookedst upon the straits of the habitation in all which shall seem good with Israel; and an old man shall not be in thy house all the days. ³³ And a man I will not cut off to thee from mine altar to finish thine eyes and to cause thy soul to pine away: and all the increase of thy house, the men, shall die. ³⁴ And this the sign to thee which shall come to thy two sons to Hophni and Phinehas: in one day they two shall die. ³⁵ And I raised up to me a faithful priest, as in my heart and in my soul he shall do: and I built to him a faithful house; and he went before my Messiah all the days. ³⁶ And it was all being left in thy house shall go to worship to him for a piece of silver and a round of bread; and he said, Add me to one of the priesthoods to eat a morsel of bread.

²⁸ And Samuel will say to him, Jehovah rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and gave it to thy neighbor being good above thee.

⁷ Go say to Jeroboam, Thus said Jehovah God of Israel, Because I raised thee up from the midst of the people, and I will give thee chief over my people Israel, ⁸ And I will rend the kingdom from the house of David, and I will give it to thee: and thou wert not as my servant David who watched my commands and who went after me with all his heart to do only the straight in mine eyes;

¹⁴ And Jehovah raised up to him a king over Israel who will cut off the house of Jeroboam that day: and what? also now

² How long will ye, grieve my soul, and crush me with words?

⁹ Thou shalt rule them with a rod of iron; as a potter's vessel shalt thou break them in pieces. kings, and be instructed, ye judging the land.

⁴ He shall judge the poor of the people, and save to the sons of the needy, and he will break in pieces him oppressing.

⁵ They will break in pieces thy people, O Jehovah, and they will afflict thine inheritance.

⁷ Raising up the poor from the dust, he will lift up the needy from the dunghill. ⁸ To sit with the nobles, with the nobles of his people.

²⁰ Thou a mallet to me, a weapon of war: and I broke the nations in pieces with thee, and I destroyed kingdoms with thee; ²¹ And I broke in pieces with thee the horse and his rider; and I broke in pieces with thee the chariot and its charioteer; ²² And I broke in pieces with thee man and woman; and I broke in pieces with thee the old man and the boy; and I broke in pieces with thee the young man and the virgin; ²³ And I broke in pieces with thee the shepherd and his flock; and I broke in pieces with thee the husbandman and his yoke; and I broke in pieces with thee the prefects and the rulers.

²¹ And he changes the times and the seasons; removing kings and setting up kings; giving wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those knowing understanding.

³⁴ Thou wert seeing even till a stone was cut out not with hands, and striking against the image upon the feet of iron and burnt clay, and breaking them in pieces. ³⁵ At that time were beaten small at once, the iron, the burnt clay, the brass, the silver and the gold, and they were as the chaff of the threshing-floor of summer; and the wind lifted them up and all place was not found for them: and the stone striking against the image was for a great rock, and filled all the earth.

²⁸ Pharsin; Thy kingdom was divided, and it shall be given to the Medes and to Persia. ²⁹ At that time Belshazzar said, and they clothed Daniel with purple, and a necklace of gold upon his neck, and they cried out concerning him, for him to rule the third in the kingdom. ³⁰ In that night Belshazzar king of the Chaldeans was killed. ³¹ And Darius the Median received the kingdom, as the son of two and sixty years.

²⁰ In a moment shall they die, and the middle of the night shall the people be moved and pass away: and the mighty shall be removed with not a hand.

¹⁵ He formed their heart together, understanding all their works.

⁸ All of them holding the sword, being trained to war: each his sword upon his thigh from terror in the night

¹ The burden of Moab. For in the night the city of Moab was destroyed, perishing; for in the night the wall of Moab was destroyed, perishing.

¹⁸ And I come to gather together all nations and tongues, their works and their purposes; and they came and saw my glory.

² And they will not say to their heart, I remembered all their evil: now their doings surrounded them; they were before my face.

⁷ Jehovah sware by the pride of Jacob, If I will forget forever all their works.

¹² And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is of life: and the dead were judged from the things written in the books, according to their works.

³⁰ And Jehovah will save Israel in that day, from the hand of Egypt: and Israel will see the Egyptians dead upon the lip of the sea

⁹ But killing, thou shalt kill him; thy hand shall be upon him for the first to put him to death, and the hand of all the people at last. ¹⁰ And stone him with stones and he died, for he sought to thrust thee away from Jehovah thy God, having brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of servants. ¹¹ And all Israel shall hear, and shall fear, and they shall not add to do this evil in the midst of thee.

²¹ And all the men of his city stoned him with stones, and he died: and put thou away evil from the midst of thee, and all Israel shall hear and shall fear.

¹¹ Thus said Jehovah, Behold me raising up evil against thee from thy house, and I took thy wives before thine eyes and gave to thy neighbor, and he lay with thy wives before the eyes of this sun. ¹² For thou didst in secret: and I will do this word before all Israel, and before the sun.

¹⁰ The just one shall rejoice as seeing vengeance: he shall wash his footsteps in the blood of the unjust one. ¹¹ And man shall say, Truly, fruit to the just one: truly there is a God judging in the earth.

²⁴ And they went forth and saw the carcasses of the men transgressing against me: for their worm shall not die, and their fire shall not be quenched; and they were an abhorrence to all flesh.

²⁰ Them having sinned rebuke before all, that the rest also have fear.

²⁴ Some men's sins are manifest, going before to judgment; and also to some they follow in the train.

⁹ And weep for her, and lament over her, shall the kings of the earth having been debauched with her, and having led an insolent life, when they see the smoke of her burning, ¹⁰ Standing from far off for fear of her torture, saying, Woe, woe, the great city Babylon, the strong city! for in one hour thy judgment came.

²⁰ Rejoice over her, O heaven, and the holy sent, and the prophets; for God judged your judgment of her.

¹¹ I lamented that I made Saul for king, for he turned back from after me, and my words he set not up. And it will kindle to Samuel, and he will cry to Jehovah all the night

⁵ For they will not understand for the doing of Jehovah, and for the work of his hands; he will destroy them and he will not build them up.

⁴³ Who the wise and will watch these, and they shall understand the mercies of Jehovah.

⁵ And those turning to their winding ways, Jehovah will cause them to go with those working iniquity: peace upon Israel.

²⁹ For that they hated knowledge, and chose not the fear of Jehovah: ³⁰ They desired not for my counsels: and derided all my reproofs.

³ . The ox knew his possessor, and the ass his lord's stall: Israel knew not; my people understood not

¹² And there was the harp and the lyre, the drum and the pipe, and the wine of their drinking's: but the work of Jehovah they will not look at, and the work of his hands they saw not

⁶ And those departing from after Jehovah, and who sought not Jehovah, and asked not for him.

¹⁵ And now, set now your heart from this day and upward, before setting stone upon stone in the temple of Jehovah. ¹⁶ Who were ye coming to the heap of twenty and it was ten? coming to the wine-vat to draw fifty of the wine-press, and there was twenty? ¹⁷ I struck you with blasting and with yellowness and with hail in all the work of your hands; and none with you to me, says Jehovah. ¹⁸ Set now your heart from this day and upward, from the twenty and fourth day to the ninth, from the day that the temple of Jehovah was founded, set ye your heart ¹⁹ Is the seed yet in the storehouse? and even the vine and the fig tree, and the pomegranate and the olive tree bore not: from this day will I praise.

³¹ In that day, whoever shall be upon the house, and his goods in the house, let him not go down to take them away: and he in the fields, likewise let him not turn back behind. ³² Remember Lot's wife.

³⁸ But Paul deemed worthy, having withdrawn from them from Pamphylia, and not having come with them to the work, not to take him with them.

¹⁰ For Demas has forsaken me, having loved the time now, and has gone to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia.

³⁹ And we are not of drawing down to perdition; but of faith to the acquisition of the soul.

²³ And it will be in these many days, and the king of Egypt will die: and the sons of Israel will groan, from the work; and they will cry out, and their supplication will go up to God from the work. ²⁴ And God will hear their groaning, and God will remember his covenant with Abraham, with Isaak and with Jacob.

⁷ And Jehovah will say, Seeing, I saw the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and I heard their cry from the face of their pressers; and I knew their pains.

⁹ And now behold the cry of the sons of Israel came to me: and also I saw the oppression which the Egyptians oppressed them.

²³ If afflicting, thou shalt afflict him, if crying, he shall cry to me, hearing, I will hear his cry. ²⁴ And my anger kindling, I killed you with the sword; and your wives were widows, and your sons orphans. ²⁵ If thou shalt lend silver to my people being poor with thee, thou shalt not be to him, as lending; ye shall not put interest upon him. ²⁶ If taking in pledge, thou shalt take in pledge the garment of thy friend, at the going down of the sun thou shalt turn it back to him. ²⁷ For it is his covering alone; his garment for his nakedness in which he shall lie; and it was when he shall cry to me, and I heard, for I am compassionate.

⁹ Thou didst send away widows empty, and the arms of the orphans will be broken. ¹⁰ For this, snares are round about thee, and sudden fear will terrify thee;

¹² From the city men will groan, and the soul of the wounded will cry out: and God will not set folly.

¹² For I shall deliver the poor crying, and the orphan, and none helping to him. ¹³ The praise of him perishing will come upon me, and I shall cause the heart of the widow to rejoice.

¹⁹ If I shall see one perishing from not being clothed, and no covering to the needy; ²⁰ If his loins did not praise me, and he will be warmed from the fleece of my sheep

⁹ From the multitude of oppressions they will cry out: they will cry out from the arm of the many.

⁵ From the oppression of the poor, from the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, Jehovah will say; I will set with salvation, he will puff at him.

⁷ For the vineyard of Jehovah of armies is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah the plant of his pleasures: and he will wait for judgment, and behold bloodshed; for justice, and behold a cry.

⁴ Behold, the hire of laborers having reaped your farms, withheld by you, cries out, and the cries of the reapers have entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.

¹ And it will be when the king sat in his house, and Jehovah gave rest to him from round about from all his enemies.

⁹ And it will be in the fourth year to king Hezekiah, this the seventh year to Hoshea son of Elah, king of Isreel, Shalmaneser, king of Assur, came up against Shomeron and pressed, upon it. ¹⁰ And he will take it from the end of three years: in the sixth year to Hezekiah, this the ninth year to Hoshea, king of Israel, Shomeron was taken. ¹¹ And the king of Assur will carry Israel into exile to Assur, and put them in Halah and Habor, the river of Gihon, and the cities of the Medes: ¹² Because they heard not to the voice of Jehovah their God, and they will pass by his covenant, all which Moses commanded, the servant of Jehovah, and they heard not and did not

¹⁴ Also all the chiefs of the priests and the people multiplied to Transgress transgression according to all the abominations of the nations; and they will defile the house of Jehovah which he consecrated in Jerusalem. ¹⁵ And Jehovah the God of their fathers will send to them by the hand of his messengers, rising early and sending; for he compassionated upon his people, and upon his dwelling: ¹⁶ For they will be mocking upon the messengers of God, and despising his words, and scoffing at his prophets, even to the bringing up the wrath of Jehovah against his people, even to no healing. ¹⁷ And he will bring against them the king of the Chaldeans, and he will kill their chosen with the sword in the house of the holy place, and he pitied not over young man and virgin, old man and the gray-headed: he gave all into his hand.

¹⁴ Behold, he will pull down and it shall not be built up: he will shut up against man and it shall not be opened.

⁸ Behold, I shall go before, and he is not; and behind, I shall not understand for him. ⁹ The left hand in his working, and I shall not behold: he will cover himself on the right hand, and I shall not see.

¹³ And he is in one, and who shall turn him back? and his soul desired, and he will do.

¹ And Job will add to lift up his parable, and say, ² Who will give me as the months of old, as the days God will watch me? ³ In his causing his light to shine upon my head, before his light I shall go through darkness;

¹ To the overseer; chanting of David.

⁹ Thou wilt not cover thy face from me; thou wilt not turn away thy servant in anger: thou, wert my help; thou wilt not leave me and thou wilt not forsake me, my God saving me.

⁷ O Jehovah, in thy good will thou didst cause strength to stand for my mountain: thou didst cover thy face, I was in trepidation.

⁷ Quickly answer me, O Jehovah: my spirit failed: thou wilt not hide thy face from me: I was made like those going down to the pit.

³ And it was in that day Jehovah gave rest to thee from thy toil and from thy trouble, and from the hard service which was served upon thee. ⁴ And thou tookest up this parable against the king of Babel, and thou saidst, How did he oppressing, cease! oppression ceased. ⁵ Jehovah broke in pieces the rod of the unjust, the rod of the rulers. ⁶ Striking the peoples in wrath a blow not removed, bringing down the nations in anger; pursuing, not sparing. ⁷ All the earth rested, having quiet: they broke forth a rejoicing. ⁸ Also the cypresses rejoiced at thee, the cedars of Lebanon: From that time thou wert laid down, he cutting off will not come up against us.

³ The mind placed upon thee thou wilt form peace, peace, because he trusted in thee.

¹⁷ And the work of justice was peace, and the service of justice, rest and confidence, even to forever.

⁸ And it was the nation and kingdom which shall not serve him, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babel, and which shall not give his neck in the yoke of the king of Babel, with the sword and with famine and with death I will review upon that nation, says Jehovah, even to my finishing them by his hand.

²⁷ Peace I leave to you, my peace I give to you: not as the world gives, give I to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be timid.

³¹ What then shall we say to these? if God with us, who against us? ³² Who truly spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, and how not with him will he freely give us all? ³³ Who shall demand payment for the chosen of God? God justifying. ³⁴ Who, he condemning Christ having died, and rather also raised again, who is at the right hand of God, and who intercedes for us.

⁷ And the peace of God, surpassing all understanding, shall watch your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

²⁸ And the king will consult and make two calves of gold, and he will say to them, Much for you going up to Jerusalem: behold thy gods, Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt ²⁹ And he will set up the one in the house of God, and the one he gave in Dan. ³⁰ And this word will be for sin: and the people will go before the one, even to Dan.

⁹ But they heard not, and Manasseh will cause them to go astray to do evil more than the nations which Jehovah destroyed from the face of the sons of Israel.

²¹ For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he will see all his steps.

⁸ The unjust shall walk round about as the rising of a tempest to the sons of man.

² In the increasing of the just the people will rejoice: and in the ruling of the unjust one the people will groan. ³ A man loving wisdom will gladden his father: and he feeding harlots shall destroy riches. ⁴ A king in judgment shall establish the land: and a man of presents shall overthrow it ⁵ A man making smooth against his neighbor spreads a net for his steps. ⁶ In the transgression of an evil man is a snare: and the just one shall rejoice and be glad: ⁷ The just one knew the judgment of the poor: the unjust one will not understand knowledge. ⁸ Men of derision will kindle up a city: and the wise will turn away anger. ⁹ A wise man contending with a foolish man and raging and laughing, and no rest. ¹⁰ Men of bloods will hate the upright one: and the upright will seek his soul. ¹¹ The foolish one will bring forth all his spirit; and the wise one will restrain it back. ¹² A ruler listening to the word of falsehood, all serving him are unjust

¹⁸ Wisdom is good above the instruments of encounter: and one sinning will destroy much good.

¹¹ Ephraim was oppressed, he was broken in judgment because he was willing to go after the command.

¹¹ I will give to thee a king in mine anger, and I will take away in my wrath.

¹⁶ The laws of Omri will be observed, and all the work of the house of Ahab, and ye will go in their counsels; so that I shall give thee for a desolation, and her inhabitants for hissing, and ye shall bear the reproach of my People.

⁴ Who being opposed and lifted up above all called God, or which is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God. ⁵ Remember ye not, that, yet being with you, I spake these to you ⁶ And now ye know the withholding for him to be revealed in his time. ⁷ For the mystery of iniquity is already energetic: only he withholding, even till he be out of the midst. ⁸ And then shall the Lawless one be revealed, whom the Lord will destroy with the spirit of his mouth, and leave unemployed in the splendor of his arrival: ⁹ Whose arrival is according to the energy of Satan in all power and signs and wonders of falsehood, ¹⁰ And in all deceit of iniquity in the lost; because they received not the love of the truth, for them to be saved. ¹¹ And for this, God shall send them the energy of error, for them to believe in falsehood:

³ And I saw one of his heads as slaughtered to death; and his deathblow was healed: and the whole earth wondered after the beast. ⁴ And they worshipped the dragon which gave power to the wild beast: and they worshipped the wild beast, saying, Who like the beast? who shall be able to war with him

¹¹ And I saw another wild beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. ¹² And all the powers of the first beast he does before him, and he makes the earth and all dwelling in it that they should worship the first wild beast, whose death-blow was healed. ¹³ And he does great signs, that also he might make fire come down from heaven to the earth before men, ¹⁴ And he deceives them dwelling upon earth by the signs which were given him to do before the wild beast; saying to them dwelling upon earth, to make an image to the wild beast, who has the blow of the sword, and he lived.

⁴¹ I also will go hostile with them, and I brought them into the land of their enemies; if then their uncircumcised heart shall be humbled, and then they shall be satisfied with their iniquity;

¹³ And after all coming upon us for our evil deeds, and in our great guilt, for thou our God didst withhold below our iniquities, and didst give to us an escaping according to this. ¹⁴ Shall we turn back to break thy commands and to contract marriage with the people of these abonminations? Wilt thou not be angry with us even to finishing, for not a remaining and escaping.

³³ And thou art just for all brought upon us; for thou didst the truth and we were evil: ³⁴ And our kings, our chiefs, our priests and our fathers, they did not thy law, and they attended not to thy commands and thy testimonies which thou didst testify against them. ³⁵ And they in their kingdom, and in thy great goodness which thou gavest to them, and in the broad and fat land which thou gavest before them, served not thee, and turned not back from their evil works. ³⁶ Behold, we this day are servants, and the land which thou gavest to our fathers to eat its fruit and its goodness, behold, we are servants upon it: ³⁷ And its produce being much for the kings whom thou gavest over us in our sins: and ruling over our bodies and upon our cattle according to their will, and we in great straits. ³⁸ And for all this we cut out faithfulness, and write; and upon the sealing, our chiefs, our Levites, and our priests

²⁷ He will look upon men, and he shall say, I sinned, and I perverted the right, and it was not fitting to me;

³ And Job will answer Jehovah, and say, ⁴ Behold, I was vile; what shall I turn back to thee? I put my hand to my mouth. ⁵ Once I sake, and I will not answer: and twice, and I will not add.

⁶ For this, I shall melt away, and I lamented in dust and ashes.

¹⁸ Hearing, I heard Ephraim being thrust away: Thou didst correct me, and I shall be corrected as a calf not being taught: turn me back and I shall be turned back, for thou Jehovah my God. ¹⁹ For after my being turned back I was comforted; and after my knowing I struck upon the thigh: I was ashamed and also disgraced for I bore the reproach of my youth.

⁷ To thee, O Jehovah, justice, and to us shame of face, as this day to the men of Judah, and to those dwelling in Jerusalem, and to all Israel being near and being far off, in all the lands where thou didst thrust them there in their transgression which they transgressed against thee. ⁸ O Jehovah, to us shame of face, to our kings, to our chiefs, and to our fathers, that we sinned against thee. ⁹ To Jehovah our God compassion and forgivenesses, for we rebelled against him. ¹⁰ We heard not to the voice of Jehovah our God to go in his laws which he gave before us in the hand of his servants the prophets ¹¹ And all Israel passed by thy Laws, and departing not to hear to thy voice; and the curse will be poured upon us, and the oath which was written in the law of Moses the servant of God, for we sinned against him. ¹² And he will set up his words which he spake against us, and against our judges who judged us to bring against us a great evil: which was not done under all the heavens according to what was done in Jerusalem. ¹³ As that written in the law of Moses all this evil came upon us, and we supplicated not the face of Jehovah our God to turn back from our iniquities and to understand in thy truth. ¹⁴ And Jehovah will watch for evil, and will bring it upon us: for Jehovah our God is just upon all his works which he did: and we heard not to his voice.

⁹ The anger of Jehovah I will bear, for I sinned against him till he shall maintain my contention, and do my judgment: he will bring me forth to the light, I shall look upon his justice.

² Saying to God, Thou wilt not condemn me; make known to me for what thou wilt contend with me.

¹¹ And who teacheth us from the cattle of the earth, and he will make us wise above the birds of the heavens?

¹² Who will understand errors? acquit me from hidden things.

⁴ O Jehovah, cause me to know thy ways; teach me thy paths. ⁵ Cause me to tread in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art God saving me; on thee I waited all the day.

⁸ I will make thee wise, and teach thee in the way. which thou shalt go: I will counsel mine eyes upon thee.

²³ Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me and know my thoughts: ²⁴ And see if the way of pain is in me, and guide me in the eternal way.

⁸ Cause me to hear thy mercy in the morning; for in thee I trusted: cause me to know the way that I shall go; for to thee I lifted up my soul. ⁹ Deliver me from mine enemies, O Jehovah: to thee I covered myself. ¹⁰ Teach me to do thine acceptance, for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; thou wilt guide me into a land of uprightness.

¹³ He covering his transgression shall not prosper: but he confessing and forsaking, shall be compassionated.

⁸ Do ye therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to, say in yourselves, We have a father A braham : for I say to you, That God is able to raise children to Abraham of these stones. ⁹ And also the axe is already laid at the root of the trees: therefore every tree not making good fruit is cut down, and cast into fire. ¹⁰ And the crowds asked him, saying, What therefore shall we do? ¹¹ And he having answered, says to them, He having two coats, let him impart to him having none; and he having food, let him do likewise. ¹² And publicans came to be immersed, and said to him, Teacher, what shall we do? ¹³ And he said to them, Do nothing more than that appointed you ¹⁴ And they making war asked him, saying, And what shall do? And he said to them, Shake none violently, neither make slanderous accusation; and be content with your pay.

²² For you to put away according to the former mode of life the old man, corrupted according to the eager desires of deceit;

²⁵ Wherefore falsehood ye having put away, speak the truth each with his neighbor: for ye are members one of another. ²⁶ Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your fit of anger: ²⁷ Neither give place to the accuser. ²⁸ He stealing let him steal no more: and rather let him be wearied from fatigue, working good with the hands, that he have to impart to him having need.

¹² Behold, he will catch and who shall turn him? and who shall say to him, What wilt thou do?

³¹ He being deceived shall not trust in vanity: for vanity shall be his compensation.

⁴ He rent his soul in his anger: shall the earth be forsaken for thee? and shall the rock be removed from its place?

⁵ If thou shalt be able to turn back to me, set in order before me, stand forth.

³² If there be words, turn back to me: speak, for I desired to justify thee.

¹¹ For the work of man shall he recompense to him, and a man shall find himself according to his way.

¹¹ Who anticipated me, and I will recompense? under all the heavens it is to me.

³⁰ If his sons shall forsake my law, and not go in my judgments; ³¹ If they shall profane my laws and watch not my commands; ³² And I reviewed their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with blows.

⁶ All which Jehovah delighted in he did, in the heavens and in the earth, in the seas and all the depths.

³¹ Behold, the just shall be requited in the earth: much more the unjust one and the sinning.

⁹ Wo to him striving with him forming him! the potsherd with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him forming it, What wilt thou make? and thy work, No hands to it?

¹² Saying, That these last worked one hour, and thou hast made them equal to us, having borne the burden and heat of the day. ¹³ And he, having answered, said to one of them, Friend, I injure thee not; didst not thou agree with me for a drachma? ¹⁴ Take thine and retire: and I will to give to this last, as also to thee. ¹⁵ Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with my things? Or is thine eye evil because I am good

³⁵ Or who first gave to him, and it shall be given back to him?

⁶ Even though just with God to return pressure to them pressing you; ⁷ And to you being pressed a release with us, in the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with the angels of his power,

² For if the word spoken by angels was firm, and every transgression and bad instruction received the just payment of reward;

²⁶ Having deemed the reproach of Christ greater riches than treasures in Egypt: for he looked to the payment of reward.

² Hear, ye wise, my words; and ye knowing, give ear to me.

⁴ We will choose to us judgment: we shall know between ourselves what is good.

¹⁰ For this, ye men of heart, hear to me: far be it to God from doing evil; and the Almighty from iniquity.

¹⁶ If now understanding, hear this: give ear to the voice of my words.

² According to your knowledge I knew also: I fall not more than you.

² Shall a wise one answer knowledge of wind, and fill his belly with the east wind?

¹⁶ And Job will open his mouth in vain; he will bind together words without knowledge.

² Who this darkening counsel in words without knowledge?

³ Who this hiding counsel without knowledge? for this, I announced, and I shall not understand; wonders above me, and I shall not know.

⁶ The tents to those oppressing will be secure, and confidence to those provoking God to anger: whom God will bring into his hand

⁷ Wherefore shall the unjust live? They grew old, also they were strong in power.

¹⁶ God relaxed my heart, and the Almighty caused me to tremble.

¹ Wherefore were not times hidden from the Almighty,? and they knowing him saw not his days.

⁸ Going for company with those working iniquity, and to go with men of injustice? ⁹ For he said, It will not profit a man in delighting himself with God.

³ Thou didst try my heart; thou didst review the night; thou didst refine me, thou wilt find nothing: I purposed, my mouth shall not pass by.

² Prove me, O Jehovah, and try me; refine my reins and my heart

¹¹ Behold, we esteem those enduring happy. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and ye see the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very compassionate and merciful.

²³ For the sin of divination, rebellion; and deceit, and the family gods of stubbornness. Because thou didst reject the word of Jehovah, and he will reject thee from being king.

² How long wilt thou speak these things? and the great spirit of the words of thy mouth? ³ Will God pervert judgment? and if the Almighty will pervert justice?

² Shall not the multitude of words be answered? and shall a man of lips be justified? ³ Shall thy empty talks cause men to be silent? and wilt thou deride and none making ashamed?

² Also to-day is my complaint bitter: my hand heavy over my groaning,

²³ It shall be clapped upon him with their hands, and it shall be hissed upon him from his place.

² Didst thou reckon this for judgment thou saidst, My justice is above God? ³ For thou wilt say, What shall it profit to thee? what shall I profit from my sin?

⁷ And it will be after Jehovah spake these words to Job, and Jehovah will say to Eliphaz the Temanite, Mine anger was kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye spake not the right before me as my servant Job.

¹⁹ If ye shall be willing and hear, ye shall eat the good of the land. ²⁰ And if ye shall refuse and rebel, ye shall be eaten by the sword: for the mouth of Jehovah spake.
