Job 33 📜 📕 ↷
Elihu Rebukes Job
1 HEAR therefore Job my sayings, and harken to all my words.📜💬📚
2 Behold I have opened my mouth, let my tongue speak within my jaws.📜💬📚
3 My words are of my simple heart, and my lips shall speak a pure sentence.📜💬📚
4 The Spirit of God made me, and the breadth of the Omnipotent gave me life.📜💬📚
5 If thou canst, answer me, and stand against my face.📜💬📚
6 Behold God hath made me also even as thee, and of the same clay I also was formed.📜💬📚
7 But yet let not my miracle terrify thee, and let not my eloquence be burdenous to thee.📜💬📚
8 Thou therefore hast said in my ears, and I have heard the voice of thy words:📜💬📚
9 I am clean, and without sin: unspotted, and there is no iniquity in me.📜💬📚
10 Because he hath found quarrels in me, therefore hath he thought me his enemy.📜💬📚
11 He hath put my feet in the stocks, he hath observed all my ways.📜💬📚
12 This therefore is it, wherein thou art not justified: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.📜💬📚
13 Doest thou contend against him because he hath not answered thee to all words?📜💬📚
14 God, speaketh once, and repeateth not the self-same the second time.📜💬📚
15 By a dream in a vision by night, when heavy sleep falleth upon men, and they sleep in their bed.📜💬📚
16 Then doth he open the ears of men, and teaching instructeth them with discipline.📜💬📚
17 That he may turn a man from these things, which he doth, and may deliver him from pride:📜💬📚
18 Delivering his soul from corruption: and his life, that it pass not unto the sword.📜💬📚
19 He rebuketh also by sorrow in the bed, and he maketh all his bones to wither.📜💬📚
20 Bread is become abominable to him in his life, and to his soul the meat before desired.📜💬📚
21 His flesh shall consume, and the bones that had been covered, shall be made naked.📜💬📚
22 His soul hath approached to corruption, and his life to things causing death.📜💬📚
23 If there shall be an Angel speaking for him, one of thousands, to declare man's equity.📜💬📚
24 He shall have mercy on him, and shall say: deliver him, that he descend not into corruption: I have found wherein I may be propitious to him.📜💬📚
25 His flesh is consumed with punishments, let it return to the days of his youth.📜💬📚
26 He shall beseech God, and he will be pacified towards him: and he shall see his face in jubilation, and he will render to a man his justice.📜💬📚
27 He shall behold men, and shall say: I have sinned, and indeed I have offended, and as I was worthy, I have not received.📜💬📚
28 He hath delivered his soul that it should not go into death, but living should see the light.📜💬📚
29 Behold all these things doth God work three times in every one.📜💬📚
30 That he may reclaim their souls from corruption, and illuminate them with the light of the living.📜💬📚
31 Attend Job, and hear me: and hold thy peace, whilst I speak.📜💬📚
32 But if thou hast what to speak, answer me, speak, for I would thee to appear just.📜💬📚
33 And if thou have not, hear me: hold thy peace, & I will teach thee wisdom.📜💬📚
