Job 22:1

22:1

Then Eliphaz
<0464>

the Temanite
<08489>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Job 16:1-22

16:1

Then Job
<0347>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

16:2

I have heard
<08085> (8804)

many such things
<07227>_:

miserable
<05999>

comforters
<05162> (8764)

[are] ye all. {miserable: or, troublesome}

16:3

Shall vain
<07307>

words
<01697>

have an end
<07093>_?

or what emboldeneth
<04834> (8686)

thee that thou answerest
<06030> (8799)_?

{vain...: Heb. words of wind}

16:4

I also could speak
<01696> (8762)

as ye [do]: if
<03863>

your soul
<05315>

were
<03426>

in my soul's
<05315>

stead, I could heap up
<02266> (8686)

words
<04405>

against you, and shake
<05128> (8686)

mine head
<07218>

at
<01119>

you.

16:5

[But] I would strengthen
<0553> (8762)

you with
<01119>

my mouth
<06310>_,

and the moving
<05205>

of my lips
<08193>

should asswage
<02820> (8799)

[your grief].

16:6

Though I speak
<01696> (8762)_,

my grief
<03511>

is not asswaged
<02820> (8735)_:

and [though] I forbear
<02308> (8799)_,

what am I eased
<01980> (8799)_?

{what...: Heb. what goeth from me?}

16:7

But now he hath made me weary
<03811> (8689)_:

thou hast made desolate
<08074> (8689)

all my company
<05712>_.

16:8

And thou hast filled me with wrinkles
<07059> (8799)_,

[which] is a witness
<05707>

[against me]: and my leanness
<03585>

rising up
<06965> (8799)

in me beareth witness
<06030> (8799)

to my face
<06440>_.

16:9

He teareth
<02963> (8804)

[me] in his wrath
<0639>_,

who hateth
<07852> (8799)

me: he gnasheth
<02786> (8804)

upon me with his teeth
<08127>_;

mine enemy
<06862>

sharpeneth
<03913> (8799)

his eyes
<05869>

upon me.

16:10

They have gaped
<06473> (8804)

upon me with their mouth
<06310>_;

they have smitten
<05221> (8689)

me upon the cheek
<03895>

reproachfully
<02781>_;

they have gathered
<04390> (8691)

themselves together
<03162>

against me.

16:11

God
<0410>

hath delivered
<05462> (8686)

me to the ungodly
<05760>_,

and turned me over
<03399> (8804)

into the hands
<03027>

of the wicked
<07563>_.

{hath...: Heb. hath shut me up}

16:12

I was at ease
<07961>_,

but he hath broken me asunder
<06565> (8770)_:

he hath also taken
<0270> (8804)

[me] by my neck
<06203>_,

and shaken me to pieces
<06327> (8770)_,

and set me up
<06965> (8686)

for his mark
<04307>_.

16:13

His archers
<07228>

compass me round about
<05437> (8799)_,

he cleaveth
<06398> (0)

my reins
<03629>

asunder
<06398> (8762)_,

and doth not spare
<02550> (8799)_;

he poureth out
<08210> (8799)

my gall
<04845>

upon the ground
<0776>_.

16:14

He breaketh
<06555> (8799)

me with breach
<06556>

upon
<06440>

breach
<06556>_,

he runneth
<07323> (8799)

upon me like a giant
<01368>_.

16:15

I have sewed
<08609> (8804)

sackcloth
<08242>

upon my skin
<01539>_,

and defiled
<05953> (8782)

my horn
<07161>

in the dust
<06083>_.

16:16

My face
<06440>

is foul
<02560> (8777)

with weeping
<01065>_,

and on my eyelids
<06079>

[is] the shadow of death
<06757>_;

16:17

Not for [any] injustice
<02555>

in mine hands
<03709>_:

also my prayer
<08605>

[is] pure
<02134>_.

16:18

O earth
<0776>_,

cover
<03680> (8762)

not thou my blood
<01818>_,

and let my cry
<02201>

have no place
<04725>_.

16:19

Also now, behold, my witness
<05707>

[is] in heaven
<08064>_,

and my record
<07717>

[is] on high
<04791>_.

{on high: Heb. in the high places}

16:20

My friends
<07453>

scorn
<03887> (8688)

me: [but] mine eye
<05869>

poureth out
<01811> (8804)

[tears] unto God
<0433>_.

{scorn me: Heb. are my scorners}

16:21

O that one might plead
<03198> (8686)

for a man
<01397>

with God
<0433>_,

as a man
<0120>

[pleadeth] for his neighbour
<01121> <07453>_!

{neighbour: or, friend}

16:22

When a few
<04557>

years
<08141>

are come
<0857> (8799)_,

then I shall go
<01980> (8799)

the way
<0734>

[whence] I shall not return
<07725> (8799)_.

{a few...: Heb. years of number}
