Job: 4
1. Then Eliphaz the Temanite replied to Job:
2. "Will you be patient and let me say a word? For who could keep from speaking out?
3. "In the past you have encouraged many a troubled soul to trust in God; you have supported those who were weak.
4. Your words have strengthened the fallen; you steadied those who wavered.
5. But now when trouble strikes, you faint and are broken.
6. Does your reverence for God give you no confidence? Shouldn't you believe that God will care for those who are upright?
7. "Stop and think! Does the innocent person perish? When has the upright person been destroyed?
8. My experience shows that those who plant trouble and cultivate evil will harvest the same.
9. They perish by a breath from God. They vanish in a blast of his anger.
10. Though they are fierce young lions, they will all be broken and destroyed.
11. The fierce lion will starve, and the cubs of the lioness will be scattered.
12. "This truth was given me in secret, as though whispered in my ear.
13. It came in a vision at night as others slept.
14. Fear gripped me; I trembled and shook with terror.
15. A spirit swept past my face. Its wind sent shivers up my spine.
16. It stopped, but I couldn't see its shape. There was a form before my eyes, and a hushed voice said,
17. `Can a mortal be just and upright before God? Can a person be pure before the Creator?'
18. "If God cannot trust his own angels and has charged some of them with folly,
19. how much less will he trust those made of clay! Their foundation is dust, and they are crushed as easily as moths.
20. They are alive in the morning, but by evening they are dead, gone forever without a trace.
21. Their tent collapses; they die in ignorance.
Job: 5
1. "You may cry for help, but no one listens. You may turn to the angels, but they give you no help.
2. Surely resentment destroys the fool, and jealousy kills the simple.
3. From my experience, I know that fools who turn from God may be successful for the moment, but then comes sudden disaster.
4. Their children are abandoned far from help, with no one to defend them.
5. Their harvests are stolen, and their wealth satisfies the thirst of many others, not themselves!
6. But evil does not spring from the soil, and trouble does not sprout from the earth.
7. People are born for trouble as predictably as sparks fly upward from a fire.
8. "My advice to you is this: Go to God and present your case to him.
9. For he does great works too marvelous to understand. He performs miracles without number.
10. He gives rain for the earth. He sends water for the fields.
11. He gives prosperity to the poor and humble, and he takes sufferers to safety.
12. He frustrates the plans of the crafty, so their efforts will not succeed.
13. He catches those who think they are wise in their own cleverness, so that their cunning schemes are thwarted.
14. They grope in the daylight as though they were blind; they see no better in the daytime than at night.
15. He rescues the poor from the cutting words of the strong. He saves them from the clutches of the powerful.
16. And so at last the poor have hope, and the fangs of the wicked are broken.
17. "But consider the joy of those corrected by God! Do not despise the chastening of the Almighty when you sin.
18. For though he wounds, he also bandages. He strikes, but his hands also heal.
19. He will rescue you again and again so that no evil can touch you.
20. He will save you from death in time of famine, from the power of the sword in time of war.
21. You will be safe from slander and will have no fear of destruction when it comes.
22. You will laugh at destruction and famine; wild animals will not terrify you.
23. You will be at peace with the stones of the field, and its wild animals will be at peace with you.
24. You will know that your home is kept safe. When you visit your pastures, nothing will be missing.
25. Your children will be many; your descendants will be as plentiful as grass!
26. You will live to a good old age. You will not be harvested until the proper time!
27. "We have found from experience that all this is true. Listen to my counsel, and apply it to yourself."
Job: 6
1. Then Job spoke again:
2. "If my sadness could be weighed and my troubles be put on the scales,
3. they would be heavier than all the sands of the sea. That is why I spoke so rashly.
4. For the Almighty has struck me down with his arrows. He has sent his poisoned arrows deep within my spirit. All God's terrors are arrayed against me.
5. Don't I have a right to complain? Wild donkeys bray when they find no green grass, and oxen low when they have no food.
6. People complain when there is no salt in their food. And how tasteless is the uncooked white of an egg!
7. My appetite disappears when I look at it; I gag at the thought of eating it!
8. "Oh, that I might have my request, that God would grant my hope.
9. I wish he would crush me. I wish he would reach out his hand and kill me.
10. At least I can take comfort in this: Despite the pain, I have not denied the words of the Holy One.
11. But I do not have the strength to endure. I do not have a goal that encourages me to carry on.
12. Do I have strength as hard as stone? Is my body made of bronze?
13. No, I am utterly helpless, without any chance of success.
14. "One should be kind to a fainting friend, but you have accused me without the slightest fear of the Almighty.
15. My brother, you have proved as unreliable as a seasonal brook that overflows its banks in the spring
16. when it is swollen with ice and melting snow.
17. But when the hot weather arrives, the water disappears. The brook vanishes in the heat.
18. The caravans turn aside to be refreshed, but there is nothing there to drink, and so they perish in the desert.
19. With high hopes, the caravans from Tema and from Sheba stop for water,
20. but finding none, their hopes are dashed.
21. You, too, have proved to be of no help. You have seen my calamity, and you are afraid.
22. But why? Have I ever asked you for a gift? Have I begged you to use any of your wealth on my behalf?
23. Have I ever asked you to rescue me from my enemies? Have I asked you to save me from ruthless people?
24. "All I want is a reasonable answer--then I will keep quiet. Tell me, what have I done wrong?
25. Honest words are painful, but what do your criticisms amount to?
26. Do you think your words are convincing when you disregard my cry of desperation?
27. You would even send an orphan into slavery or sell a friend.
28. Look at me! Would I lie to your face?
29. Stop assuming my guilt, for I am righteous. Don't be so unjust.
30. Do you think I am lying? Don't I know the difference between right and wrong?
