H8085 [H8798]
Hear
H4405
my words,
H2450
O ye wise
H238 [H8685]
men; and give ear
H3045 [H8802]
to me, ye that have knowledge.
3
H241
For the ear
H974 [H8799]
trieth
H4405
words,
H2441
as the roof of the mouth
H2938 [H8799]
tasteth
H398 [H8800]
food.
4
H977 [H8799]
Let us choose
H4941
for ourselves what is right:
H3045 [H8799]
let us know
H2896
among ourselves what is good.
5
H347
For Job
H559 [H8804]
hath said,
H6663 [H8804]
I am righteous:
H410
and God
H5493 [H8689]
hath taken away
H4941
my judgment.
6
H3576 [H8762]
Should I lie
H4941
against my right?
H2671
my wound
H605 [H8803]
is incurable
H6588
without revolt.
8
H732 [H8804]
Who goeth
H2274
in company
H6466 [H8802]
with the workers
H205
of nothingness,
H3212 [H8800]
and walketh
H7562
with wicked
H582
men.
9
H559 [H8804]
For he hath said,
H5532 [H8799]
It profiteth
H1397
a man
H7521 [H8800]
nothing that he should delight
H430
himself with God.
10
H8085 [H8798]
Therefore hearken
H582
to me, ye men
H3824
of understanding:
H2486
far be it
H410
from God,
H7562
that he should do wickedness;
H7706
and from the Almighty,
H5766
that he should commit distortion.
11
H6467
For the work
H120
of a man
H7999 [H8762]
he shall render
H376
to him, and cause every man
H4672 [H8686]
to find
H734
according to his ways.
12
H551
Yea, surely
H410
God
H7561 [H8686]
will not do wickedly,
H7706
neither will the Almighty
H5791 [H8762]
pervert
H4941
judgment.
13
H6485 [H8804]
Who hath given him a charge
H776
over the earth?
H7760 [H8804]
or who hath disposed
H8398
the whole world?
14
H7760 [H8799]
If he should set
H3820
his heart
H622 [H8799]
upon man, if he should gather
H7307
to himself his spirit
H5397
and his breath;
15
H1320
All flesh
H1478 [H8799]
would expire
H3162
together,
H120
and man
H7725 [H8799]
would turn again
H6083
to dust.
16
H998
If now thou hast understanding,
H8085 [H8798]
hear
H238 [H8685]
this: give ear
H6963
to the voice
H4405
of my words.
17
H8130 [H8802]
Shall even he that hateth
H4941
right
H2280 [H8799]
govern?
H7561 [H8686]
and wilt thou condemn
H3524
him that is most
H6662
just?
18
H559 [H8800]
Is it fit to say
H4428
to a king,
H1100
Thou art worthless?
H5081
and to princes,
H7563
Ye are wicked?
19
H5375 [H8804]
How much less to him that accepteth
H6440
not the persons
H8269
of princes,
H5234 [H8765]
nor regardeth
H7771
the rich
H6440
more than
H1800
the poor?
H4639
for they all are the work
H3027
of his hands.
20
H7281
In a moment
H4191 [H8799]
they shall die,
H5971
and the people
H1607 [H8792]
shall be troubled
H2676 H3915
at midnight,
H5674 [H8799]
and pass away:
H47
and the mighty
H5493 [H8686]
shall be taken away
H3027
without hand.
21
H5869
For his eyes
H1870
are upon the ways
H376
of man,
H7200 [H8799]
and he seeth
H6806
all his goings.
22
H2822
There is no darkness,
H6757
nor shadow of death,
H6466 [H8802]
where the workers
H205
of nothingness
H5641 [H8736]
may hide themselves.
23
H7760 [H8799]
For he will not lay
H376
upon man
H1980 [H8800]
more than right; that he should enter
H4941
into judgment
H410
with God.
24
H7489 [H8799]
He shall break in pieces
H3524
mighty men
H2714
without number,
H5975 [H8686]
and set
H312
others in their stead.
25
H5234 [H8686]
Therefore he knoweth
H4566
their works,
H2015 [H8804]
and he overturneth
H3915
them in the night,
H1792 [H8691]
so that they are allowed to be crushed.
26
H5606 [H8804]
He striketh
H8478
them as
H7563
wicked men
H4725
in the open
H7200 [H8802]
sight of others;
27
H5493 [H8804]
Because they turned back
H310
from him,
H7919 [H8689]
and would not consider
H1870
any of his ways:
28
H6818
So that they cause the shriek
H1800
of the poor
H935 [H8687]
to come
H8085 [H8799]
to him, and he heareth
H6818
the shriek
H6041
of the depressed.
29
H8252 [H8686]
When he giveth quietness,
H7561 [H8686]
who then can make trouble?
H5641 [H8686]
and when he hideth
H6440
his face,
H7789 [H8799]
who then can behold
H1471
him? whether it be done against a nation,
H120
or against a man
H3162
only:
30
H120 H2611
That the hypocrite
H4427 [H8800]
may not reign,
H5971
lest the people
H4170
should be ensnared.
31
H559 [H8736]
Surely hast any one said
H410
to God,
H5375 [H8804]
I have borne
H2254 [H8799]
chastisement, I will not offend any more:
32
H2372 [H8799]
That which I envision
H1107
not
H3384 [H8685]
teach
H6466 [H8804]
thou me: if I have done
H5766
distortion,
H3254 [H8686]
I will do no more.
33
H7999 [H8762]
Should it be according to thy mind? he will recompense
H3588 H3988 [H8804]
it, whether thou shalt refuse,
H977 [H8799]
or whether thou shalt choose;
H1696 [H8761]
and not I: therefore speak
H3045 [H8804]
what thou knowest.
34
H582
Let men
H3824
of understanding
H559 [H8799]
tell
H2450
me, and let a wise
H1397
man
H8085 [H8802]
hearken to me.
35
H347
Job
H1696 [H8762]
hath spoken
H1847
without knowledge,
H1697
and his words
H7919 [H8687]
were without prudence.
