³ The day shall perish I shall bring forth in it, and the night said, A male was conceived. ⁴ That day shall be darkness; God shall not search it out from above, and the light shall not shine upon it. ⁵ Darkness shall pollute it, and the shadow of death; a cloud shall dwell upon it; the obscurations of day shall terrify it ⁶ That night darkness shall take it; it shall not be joined upon the days of the year; it shall not come into the number of months. ⁷ Behold, that night shall be hard; no rejoicing shall be in it ⁸ They cursing the day shall curse it, they being ready to rouse up the sea monster. ⁹ The stars of its twilight shall he dark; it shall wait for light, and none; and it shall not look upon the eyelashes of the dawn., ¹⁰ Because it shut not up the doors of my belly; and shall it hide the labor of mine eyes? ¹¹ Wherefore shall I not die from the womb? and I came forth from the belly, and I shall expire. ¹² Why did the knees anticipate me? and wherefore the breasts that I shall suck? ¹³ For now I lay down and I shall rest; I slept: then there will be rest to me. ¹⁴ With kings and counselors of the earth building the wastes for themselves; ¹⁵ Or with chiefs, gold to them, filling their houses with silver: ¹⁶ Or as a hidden abortion I shall not be; as children they saw not light. ¹⁷ There the unjust ceased to be angry, and the weary in strength shall rest. ¹⁸ They being bound, rested together; they heard not the voice of the taskmaster. ¹⁹ The little and the great, he is there; and the servant being free from his lord. ²⁰ Wherefore shall light be given to him toiling, and life to the bitter of soul? ²¹ Waiting for death, and it is not; and they will dig more than for hidden treasures; ²² Rejoicing with joy when they find the grave; ²³ To a man whose way was hid, and God will hedge about him? ²⁴ For my sighing will come before any bread, and my groanings shall be poured put as waters. ²⁵ For I feared a fear, and it will come upon me, and what I was afraid of will come to me. ²⁶ I was not secure, and I rested not, and I was not quiet; and trouble will come.

³ Behold, thou didst instruct many, and thou wilt strengthen the weak hands. ⁴ Thy words will raise up the weak and thou wilt strengthen the bent knees.

⁴ For the arrows of the Almighty are with me, which their anger drank up my spirit: the terrors of God will be prepared for me.

⁹ And God will, and he will crush me; will he let his hand remain, and will he cut me off?

² How long wilt thou speak these things? and the great spirit of the words of thy mouth?

¹ My soul was weary in my life; I shall leave upon me my complaint; I shall speak in the bitterness of my soul

³ For the ear will try words, and the palate will taste of food ⁴ We will choose to us judgment: we shall know between ourselves what is good. ⁵ For Job said, I was just: and God removed my judgment ⁶ Shall I speak falsehood against my judgment? mine arrow was desperate without transgression. ⁷ What man as Job he will drink scoffing as water? 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.

² Who this darkening counsel in words without knowledge?

⁵ Once I sake, and I will not answer: and twice, and I will not add.

⁸ Wilt thou also annul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me so that thou shalt be just?

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

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.

¹ Ephraim fed upon the wind, and he pursued the east wind: all the day he multiplied falsehood and destruction; and they will cut out a covenant with Assur, and oil will be brought to Egypt

³⁷ For by thy words shalt thou be justified, and by thy words shalt thou be condemned.

¹⁴ That we be no more babes, tossed about, and carried around by every wind of doctrine, in the playing at dice of men, in craft, with the artifice of deceit;

²² Every widow and orphan ye shall not afflict. 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.

⁹ Thou didst send away widows empty, and the arms of the orphans will be broken.

³ They will lead away the ass of the orphans, and they will take for pledge, the widow's ox.

⁹ They will strip the orphan from the breast, and take a pledge for the poor.

¹² For I shall deliver the poor crying, and the orphan, and none helping to him.

¹⁷ And eating my morsel alone, and the orphan ate not from it;

²¹ If I lifted up my hand against the orphan when I shall see, my help in the gate:

¹⁵ He dug a pit, and he will dig it out, and he will fall into the pitfall he will make.

⁶ They prepared a net for my steps; my soul was bent down: they dug a pit before me, they fell into the midst of it. Silence.

³ Judge ye the poor one, and the orphan: do justice to the humble one and the poor one

¹⁰ Thou shalt not remove the old bound; and into the field of the orphans thou shalt not come: ¹¹ For he redeeming them, he is strong; he will contend their contention with thee.

²⁰ Shall evil be requited for good? for they dug a pit for my soul. Remember my standing before thee to speak good for them, to turn back thy wrath from them.

²² A cry shall be heard from their houses, for thou shalt bring upon them a trap suddenly, for they dug a pit to take me, and hid snares for my feet

⁷ They made light of father and mother in thee: they did with violence to the stranger in the midst of thee: they oppresed the orphan and the widow in thee.

³ And for my people they cast the lot: and they will give the boy for a harlot, and they sold the girl for wine; and they will drink

¹⁰ Also she being carried away captive went into captivity: also her young children shall be dashed in pieces at the head of every street, and upon her honored ones they cast the lot, and all her great ones were bound in chains.

⁵ And I came near to you for judgment: and I was a swift witness against those practicing magic, and against those committing adultery, and against those swearing to falsehood, and against those oppressing the hire of the hireling, the widow and the orphan, and those turning aside the stranger, and they feared not me, said Jehovah of armies.

²⁷ Religion pure and unpolluted before God and the Father is this, To take a view of the orphans and widows in their pressure, to keep himself free from stain from the world.

³ And by covetousness with feigned words shall trade in you: to whom judgment since a long while is not inactive, and their perdition sleeps not.

³ Shall thy empty talks cause men to be silent? and wilt thou deride and none making ashamed?

⁴ If my lips shall speak iniquity, and my tongue if it shall murmur deceit

³ My sayings the uprightness of my heart, and my lips spake knowledge purely.

⁴ For truly my words are not falsehood: the perfect of knowledge with thee.

¹⁰ But ye all shall turn back, and come ye now, and I shall not find a wise one among you.

¹⁰ For he knew the way with me,: he tried me.; I shall come forth as gold.

⁴ If my lips shall speak iniquity, and my tongue if it shall murmur deceit ⁵ Far be it to me if I shall justify you: till I expire I will not remove my integrity from me. ⁶ My justice I held fast, and I will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach from my days.

⁵ For Job said, I was just: and God removed my judgment

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

¹⁸ And ye turned back and saw between the just to the unjust, and between him serving God and to him serving him not

⁶ Shall that unseasoned be eaten without salt? if there is taste in purslain slime?

⁸ Surely thou spakest in mine ear and I will hear the voice of thy words. ⁹ I am clean without transgression; I am fair, and no iniquity to me. ¹⁰ Behold, he will find enmity against me, and he will reckon me for an enemy to him. ¹¹ He will set my feet in the stocks, he will watch all my paths. ¹² Behold, this thou wert not just: I will answer thee, for God will be great above man.

³ Who this hiding counsel without knowledge? for this, I announced, and I shall not understand; wonders above me, and I shall not know. ⁴ Hear, now, and I will speak: I will ask thee and make thou known to me. ⁵ By the hearing of the ear I heard of thee: and now mine eyes saw thee: ⁶ For this, I shall melt away, and I lamented in dust and ashes.

¹⁴ And firm food is of the perfected, of them by habit having the senses exercised for the separation of good and evil.
