4:1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered :
4:2 “If someone should attempt a word with you, will you be impatient ? But who can refrain from speaking ?
4:3 Look , you have instructed many ; you have strengthened feeble hands .
4:4 Your words have supported those who stumbled , and you have strengthened the knees that gave way .
4:5 But now the same thing comes to you, and you are discouraged ; it strikes you, and you are terrified .
4:6 Is not your piety your confidence , and your blameless ways your hope ?
4:7 Call to mind now : Who , being innocent , ever perished ? And where were upright people ever destroyed ?
4:8 Even as I have seen , those who plow iniquity and those who sow trouble reap the same.
4:9 By the breath of God they perish , and by the blast of his anger they are consumed .
4:10 There is the roaring of the lion and the growling of the young lion , but the teeth of the young lions are broken .
4:11 The mighty lion perishes for lack of prey , and the cubs of the lioness are scattered .
