Job - ch 15 v 1 - 20
- And Eliphaz the Themanite, answered, and said:
- Will a wise man answer as if he were speaking in the wind, and fill his stomach with burning heat?
- Thou reprovest him by words, who is not equal to thee, and thou speakest that which is not good for thee.
- As much as is in thee, thou hast made void fear, and hast taken away prayers from before God.
- For thy iniquity hath taught thy mouth, and thou imitatest the tongue of blasphemers.
- Thy own mouth shall condemn thee, and not I: and thy own lips shall answer thee.
- Art thou the first man that was born, or wast thou made before the hills ?
- Hast thou heard God's counsel, and shall his wisdom be inferior to thee?
- What knowest thou that we are ignorant of? what dost thou understand that we know not?
- There are with us also aged and ancient men, much elder than thy fathers.
- Is it a great matter that God should comfort thee? but thy wicked words hinder this.
- Why doth thy heart elevate thee, and why dost thou stare with thy eyes, as if they were thinking great things ?
- Why doth thy spirit swell against God, to utter such words out of thy mouth ?
- What is man that he should be without spot, and he that is born of a woman that he should appear just?
- Behold among his saints none is unchangeable, and the heavens are not pure in his sight.
- How much more is man abominable, and unprofitable, who drinketh iniquity like water?
- I will shew thee, hear me : and I mill tell thee what I have seen.
- Wise men confess and hide not their fathers.
- To whom alone the earth was given, and no stranger hath passed among them.
- The wicked man is proud all his days, and the number of the years of his tyranny is uncertain.
