  1 G5274 And undertaking, G1161   G* Eliphaz G3588 the G* Temanite G3004 says,
  2 G1487 If G2983 we take G2980 to speak G4314 to G1473 you, G2872 will you tire? G2479 But the strength G1161   G4487 of your words, G1473   G5100 who G5297 shall endure?
  3 G1487 For since G1063   G1473 you G3560 admonished G4183 many, G2532 and G5495 [2 the hands G772 3of the weak G3870 1comforted],
  4 G770 [3 the ones being weak G5037 1 and also G1817 2raised up] G4487 with words, G1119 [5in knees G5037 1and G101 4 to the ones powerless G2294 3courage G4060 2you invested],
  5 G3568 but now G1161   G2240 [2comes G1909 3upon G1473 4you G4192 1misery], G2532 and G680 touched G1473 you; G1473 and now you G4704 are hurried.
  6 G4220 Is it G3756 not G3588 that G5401 your fear G1473   G1510.2.3 is G1722 in G877 folly, G2532 and G3588   G1680 your hope, G1473   G2532 and G3588 the G2549 evil G3588   G3598 of your way? G1473  
  7 G3403 Do you remember G3767 then G5100 who G1510.6 being G2513 pure G622 was destroyed? G2228 or G4219 when G228 the true ones G3649.2 [2entirely from the root G622 1were destroyed]?
  8 G2596 As G3739 in which G5158 manner G1492 I beheld G3588 the ones G722 plowing G3588 the G824 unnatural places, G3588 then the G1161   G4687 ones sowing G1473 them G3601 [2griefs G2325 1shall harvest] G1438 for themselves.
  9 G575 By G4366.2 the order G2962 of the lord G622 they shall perish, G575 and by G1161   G4151 the breath G3709 of his anger G1473   G853 they shall be obliterated.
  10 G4598.2 The strength G3023 of the lion, G5456 and the voice G1161   G3001.1 of the lioness, G1064.1 and the prancing G1161   G1404 of dragons G4570 shall be extinguished.
  11 G3463.3 The small lion G3643.4 is destroyed G3844 by G3588   G3361 not G2192 having G2339 game; G4661.1 and the cubs G1161   G3023 of lions G3007 forsook G240 one another.
  12 G4314 [2to G1473 3me G1161 1And] G2980 it was spoken G2977.1 clandestinely G1722 in G2829 stealth; G4220 shall G3756 not G1209 [3receive G1473 1my G3588   G3775 2ear] G1808.1 extraordinary things G3844 by G1473 him,
  13 G1722 in G1602.1 amazement G575 from G3705 [3vision G1473 1my G3563.1 2nightly] G1968 falling G5401 fear G1909 upon G444 men?
  14 G5424.1 But a shuddering awe G1161   G1473 met with me, G4876   G2532 and G5156 trembling, G2532 and G3171 [4greatly G1473 1my G3588   G3747 2bones G4952.3 3quaked].
  15 G2532 And G4151 a spirit G1909 [2upon G4383 3my face G1473   G1904 1came], G5425 [6shuddered G1161 1and G1473 2my G2359 3hair G2532 4and G4561 5flesh].
  16 G450 I rose up, G2532 and G3756 knew not; G1921   G1492 I saw G2532 and G3756 [3no G1510.7.3 2was G3444 1there] appearance G4253 before G3788 my eyes, G1473   G237.1 but only G838.1 a breeze; G2532 and G5456 [2a voice G191 1I heard], saying,
  17 G5100 For what, G1063   G3361 Shall G2513 [3pure G1510.8.3 2be G1027.1 1a mortal] G1726 before G3588 the G2962 lord ? G2228 or G575 [3from G3588   G2041 4his works G1473   G273 2 be blameless G435 1 shall a man]?
  18 G1487 If G2596 [2even G3816 4his servants G1473   G3756 1he does not G4100 3trust], G2596 and even G1161   G32 considers his angels G1473   G4646 as crooked G5100 in what G1962.1 he thinks about,
  19 G3588 then the ones G1161   G2730 dwelling in G3614 houses G4080.1 of clay, G1537 of G3739 whom G2532 also G1473 we G1537 [2from out of G3588 3the G1473 4same G4081 5mortar G1510.2.4 1are] -- G3817 he smites G1473 them G4597 [2of a moth G5158 1in the manner].
  20 G2532 And G575 from G4405.1 morning G2193 until G2073 evening G3765 [2no longer G1510.2.6 1they are]; G3844 by G3588 their G3361 not G1410 being able G1473 [3themselves G1438 1to help themselves G997   G622 2they] perish.
  21 G4900.2 You raised up together G3588   G5274.1 their vestige G1722 in G1473 them; G622 they perished G3844 by G3588   G3361 [2not G2192 3having G1473 1their] G4678 wisdom.

new(i)
  1 H464 Then Eliphaz H8489 the Temanite H6030 [H8799] answered H559 [H8799] and said,
  2 H5254 [H8765] If we test H1697 to speak H3811 [H8799] with thee, wilt thou be grieved? H3201 [H8799] but who can H6113 [H8800] restrain H4405 from speaking?
  3 H3256 [H8765] Behold, thou hast instructed H7227 many, H2388 [H8762] and thou hast strengthened H7504 the weak H3027 hands.
  4 H4405 Thy words H6965 [H8686] have raised H3782 [H8802] him that was falling, H553 [H8762] and thou hast strengthened H3766 [H8802] the feeble H1290 knees.
  5 H935 [H8799] But now it hath come H3811 [H8799] upon thee, and thou faintest; H5060 [H8799] it toucheth H926 [H8735] thee, and thou art troubled.
  6 H3374 Is not this thy fear, H3690 thy confidence, H8615 thy hope, H8537 and the uprightness H1870 of thy ways?
  7 H2142 [H8798] Remember, H6 [H8804] I pray thee, who ever perished, H5355 being innocent? H375 or where H3477 were the righteous H3582 [H8738] hidden?
  8 H7200 [H8804] Even as I have seen, H2790 [H8802] they that plow H205 nothingness, H2232 [H8802] and sow H5999 wickedness, H7114 [H8799] reap the same.
  9 H5397 By the blast H433 of God H6 [H8799] they perish, H7307 and by the wind H639 of his nostrils H3615 [H8799] are they consumed.
  10 H7581 The roaring H738 of the lion, H6963 and the voice H7826 of the roaring lion, H8127 and the teeth H3715 of the young lions, H5421 [H8738] are broken.
  11 H3918 The old lion H6 [H8802] perisheth H1097 for lack H2964 of prey, H3833 and the stout lion's H1121 whelps H6504 [H8691] are scattered abroad.
  12 H1697 Now a thing H1589 [H8792] was secretly brought H241 to me, and my ear H3947 [H8799] received H8102 a whisper of it.
  13 H5587 In thoughts H2384 from the visions H3915 of the night, H8639 when deep sleep H5307 [H8800] falleth H582 on men,
  14 H6343 Fear H7122 [H8804] came H7461 upon me, and trembling, H7230 which made all H6106 my bones H6342 [H8689] to shake.
  15 H7307 Then a spirit H2498 [H8799] passed H6440 before my face; H8185 the hair H1320 of my flesh H5568 [H8762] stood up:
  16 H5975 [H8799] It stood still, H5234 [H8686] but I could not discern H4758 its form: H8544 an image H5869 was before my eyes, H1827 there was silence, H8085 [H8799] and I heard H6963 a voice, saying,
  17 H582 Shall mortal man H6663 [H8799] be more just H433 than God? H1397 shall a man H2891 [H8799] be more pure H6213 [H8802] than his maker?
  18 H539 [H8686] Behold, he put no trust H5650 in his servants; H4397 and his messengers H7760 [H8799] he charged H8417 with folly:
  19 H637 How much less H7931 [H8802] in them that dwell H1004 in houses H2563 of clay, H3247 whose foundation H6083 is in the dust, H1792 [H8762] who are crushed H6440 at the face of H6211 the moth?
  20 H3807 [H8714] They are bruised H1242 from morning H6153 to evening: H6 [H8799] they are lost H5331 for ever H7760 [H8688] without any regarding it.
  21 H3499 Doth not their excellency H5265 [H8738] which is in them depart? H4191 [H8799] they die, H2451 even without wisdom.

Wycliffe(i) 1 Forsothe Eliphat Themanytes answeride, and seide, 2 If we bigynnen to speke to thee, in hap thou schalt take it heuyli; but who may holde a word conseyued? 3 Lo! thou hast tauyt ful many men, and thou hast strengthid hondis maad feynt. 4 Thi wordis confermyden men doutynge, and thou coumfortidist knees tremblynge. 5 But now a wounde is comun on thee, and thou hast failid; it touchide thee, and thou art disturblid. 6 Where is thi drede, thi strengthe, and thi pacience, and the perfeccioun of thi weies? 7 Y biseche thee, haue thou mynde, what innocent man perischide euere, ethir whanne riytful men weren doon awei? 8 Certis rathir Y siy hem, that worchen wickidnesse, and sowen sorewis, 9 and repen tho, to haue perischid bi God blowynge, and to be wastid bi the spirit of his ire. 10 The roryng of a lioun, and the vois of a lionesse, and the teeth of `whelpis of liouns ben al to-brokun. 11 Tigris perischide, for sche hadde not prey; and the whelpis of a lioun ben distried. 12 Certis an hid word was seid to me, and myn eere took as theueli the veynes of priuy noise therof. 13 In the hidousnesse of `nyytis siyt, whanne heuy sleep is wont to occupie men, 14 drede and tremblyng helde me; and alle my boonys weren aferd. 15 And whanne the spirit `yede in my presence, the heiris of `my fleisch hadden hidousnesse. 16 Oon stood, whos chere Y knewe not, an ymage bifor myn iyen; and Y herde a vois as of softe wynd. 17 Whether a man schal be maad iust in comparisoun of God? ethir whethir a man schal be clennere than his Makere? 18 Lo! thei that seruen hym ben not stidefast; and he findith schrewidnesse in hise aungels. 19 Hou myche more thei that dwellen in housis of cley, that han an ertheli foundement, schulen be wastyd as of a mouyte. 20 Fro morewtid til to euentid thei schulen be kit doun; and for no man vndurstondith, thei schulen perische with outen ende. 21 Sotheli thei, that ben residue, schulen be takun awei; thei schulen die, and not in wisdom.
Coverdale(i) 1 Then answered Eliphas of Theman and sayde vnto him: 2 Yf we begynne to comon with the, peradueture thou wilt be myscontent, but who can witholde himself from speakynge? 3 Beholde, thou hast bene a teacher of many, and hast comforted the weery hondes. 4 Thy wordes haue set vp those that were fallen, thou hast refresshed the weake knees. 5 But now that the plage is come vpon the, thou shreckest awaye: now that it hath touched thyself, thou art faint harted. 6 Where is now thy feare of God, thy stedfastnesse, thy pacience, and the perfectnesse of thy life? 7 Considre (I praye the) who euer peryshed, beynge an innocent? Or, when were the godly destroyed? 8 As for those that plowe wickednesse (as I haue sene myself) and sowe myschefe, they reape ye same. 9 For whe God bloweth vpon them, they perysh, and are destroyed thorow the blast of his wrath. 10 The roaringe of the lyon, the cryenge off the lyonesse, & ye teth off ye lyos whelpes are broke. 11 The greate lyon perysheth, because he ca get no pray and the lyons whelpes are scatred abrode. 12 There is spoken vnto me a thynge in councell, which hath geuen a terrible sounde in myne eare, 13 with a vision in the night, when men are fallen a slepe. 14 Soch feare and drede came vpo me, that all my bones shoke. 15 And when the wynde passed ouer by me, the hayres of my flesh stode vp. 16 Then stode there one before me, whose face I knewe not: an ymage there was, and the wether was still, so that I herde this voyce: 17 Maye a man be iustified before God? Maye there eny man be iudged to be clene, by reason of his owne workes? 18 Beholde, he hath founde vnfaythfulnesse amonge his owne seruauntes, and proude disobedience amonge his angels. 19 How moch more the shal they (that dwell in houses of claye, whose foundacion is but earth) be moth eaten? 20 They shalbe destroyed from the mornynge vnto the euenynge: yee they shall perish, or euer they be awarre: 21 and be taken awaye so clene, that none of the shall remayne, but be deed, or euer they be awarre off it.
MSTC(i) 1 Then answered Eliphaz the Temanite and said unto him, 2 "If we begin to commune with thee, peradventure thou wilt be discontent; but who can withhold himself from speaking? 3 Behold, thou hast been a teacher of many, and hast comforted the weary hands. 4 Thy words have set up those that were fallen, thou hast refreshed the weak knees. 5 But now that the plague is come upon thee, thou shrinkest away: now that it hath touched thyself, thou art faint hearted. 6 Where is now thy fear of God, thy steadfastness, thy patience, and the perfectness of thy ways? 7 "Consider, I pray thee: who ever perished being an innocent? Or, when were the godly destroyed? 8 For, as I have proved by experience, they that plow iniquity and sow wretchedness, reap the same. 9 With the blast of God they perish, and with the breath of his anger are they consumed away. 10 The roaring of the lion, the voice of the lioness, and the teeth of the lion's whelps are broken. 11 The lion perisheth, for lack of prey, and the lion's whelps are scattered abroad. 12 "And unto me came the word secretly, and mine ear hath received a little thereof. 13 In the fantasies and thoughts of the visions of the night, when sleep cometh on men: 14 Fear came upon me, and dread, and made all my bones to shake. 15 And when the wind passed by before my presence it made the hairs of my flesh stand up. 16 He stood there, and I knew not his face. An image there was, before mine eyes, and in the stillness heard I a voice. 17 'Shall man be more just than God? Or shall man be purer than his maker? 18 Behold, he hath found unfaithfulness among his own servants, and proud disobedience among his angels. 19 How much more then shall they that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is but earth: which shall be consumed by the moth? 20 They shall be destroyed from morning unto the evening: yea, they shall perish everlastingly, and no man think thereon. 21 Is not their dignity taken away with them? They shall die - and not in wisdom.'
Matthew(i) 1 Then answered Eliphas the Themanyte and said vnto him: 2 Yf we beginne to commen with the peraduenture thou wilt be dyscontent, but who can withhold him selfe from speakinge? 3 Behold, thou hast bene a teacher of manye, and hast comforted the wery handes. 4 Thy wordes haue set vp those that were fallen, thou haste refreshed the weake knees. 5 But nowe that the plage is come vpon the thou shrenkest awaye: now that it hath touched thy self, thou arte faynt harted. 6 Is not this thy feare, thy stedfastnesse, thy pacience, and the perfectnesse of thy wayes? 7 Consydre (I praye the) whoeuer peryshed beynge an innocent? Or, when were the godly destroied? 8 As I haue sene them that plowe vanity and sowe malicie reape the same. 9 With the blast of God dyd they perysh, & with the breth of his anger consumed they awaye. 10 The roarynge of the lyon, the voyce of the lyonesse, and the teeth of the lyons whelpes are broken 11 The lyon perissheth, for lacke of praye & the lyons whelpes are scatered abrode. 12 And vnto me was the worde hydde, and myne eare hathe receyued a lytell therof. 13 In the phantasyes and thoughtes of the vysyons of the nyght, when slepe cometh on men: 14 feare came vpon me and drede & made my bones to shake. 15 And when the wynd passed by before my presence it made the heares of my flesshe stande vp. 16 He stode there and I knew not his face, an ymage there was before me & there was stylnes, so that I heard thys voyce. 17 Shall man be moare iust then God? Or shall man be purer then his maker? 18 Behold there is no trust to his seruauntes, and in his aungelles hath he founde frowardnes. 19 How moche moare in them that dwell in houses of claye whose foundacion is but earth, which shalbe consumed by the Moth. 20 They shalbe smytten from the mornynge vnto the euenyng yee they shall perysh euerlastynglye, and no man thincke theron. 21 Is not their dignitie taken awaye with them, they shall dye and not in wysdome.
Great(i) 1 And Eliphas the Themanyte answered, and sayde: 2 Yf we begynne to commen with the, wylt thou be discontent? but who can withhold him selfe from speakinge? 3 Behold, thou hast bene a chastener of many, and hast comforted the weery handes. 4 Thy wordes haue set vp those that were fallen, thou hast refresshed the weake, knees. 5 But now that the plage is come vpon the, thou art greued: now that it hath touched thy selfe, thou art faynt harted. 6 Is not this thy feare, thy stedfastnesse, thy pacience, and the perfectnesse of thy wayes? 7 Consydre (I praye the) whoeuer perysshed beynge an innocent? Or, when were the godly destroyed? 8 For (as I haue proued by experience) they that plowe iniquytie, & sowe wretchednesse, reape the same. 9 With the blast of God they perish, and with the breth of hys nastrels are they consumed awaye. 10 The roaryng of the lyon, and the voyce of the lyon, & the teeth of the lyons whelpes are pulled out. 11 The lyon perissheth for lacke of praye, and the lyons whelpes are scatered abrode. 12 And vnto me came the worde secretly, & myne eare hath receaueth a lytell therof. 13 In the thoughtes and visyons of the night (when slepe commeth on men) 14 feare came vpon me, and drede, which made all my bones to shake. 15 The wynde passed by, before my presence, and made the heares of my flesh to stande vp. 16 He stode there, and I knew not hys face, an ymage ther was before myne eyes, and in the stylnesse hearde I a voyce. 17 Shall man be more iust than God? Or shall a man be purer than hys maker? 18 Beholde, He founde no treuth in hys seruauntes, and in hys aungels ther was foly. 19 How moch more in them that dwell in houses of claye, and whose foundacyon is but dust: which shalbe consumed as it were with a Moth? 20 They shalbe smitten from the mornynge vnto the euenyng: yee, they shall perysh for euer, when no man thincketh theron. 21 It is not their royaltye gone awaye with them: they shal dye trulye, and not in wysdome.
Geneva(i) 1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered, and sayde, 2 If we assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieued? but who can withholde himselfe from speaking? 3 Behold, thou hast taught many, and hast strengthened the wearie hands. 4 Thy wordes haue confirmed him that was falling, and thou hast strengthened the weake knees. 5 But now it is come vpon thee, and thou art grieued: it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled. 6 Is not this thy feare, thy confidence, thy pacience, and the vprightnesse of thy wayes? 7 Remember, I pray thee: who euer perished, being an innocent? or where were the vpright destroyed? 8 As I haue seene, they that plow iniquitie, and sowe wickednesse, reape the same. 9 With the blast of God they perish, and with the breath of his nostrels are they cosumed. 10 The roaring of the Lion, and the voyce of the Lionesse, and the teeth of the Lions whelpes are broken. 11 The Lyon perisheth for lacke of pray, and the Lyons whelpes are scattered abroade. 12 But a thing was brought to me secretly, and mine eare hath receiued a litle thereof. 13 In the thoughtes of ye visions of the night, when sleepe falleth on men, 14 Feare came vpon me, and dread which made all my bones to tremble. 15 And the wind passed before me, and made the heares of my flesh to stande vp. 16 Then stoode one, and I knewe not his face: an image was before mine eyes, and in silence heard I a voyce, saying, 17 Shall man be more iust then God? or shall a man be more pure then his maker? 18 Beholde, he founde no stedfastnesse in his Seruants, and laid follie vpon his Angels. 19 Howe much more in them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, which shalbe destroyed before the moth? 20 They be destroyed from the morning vnto the euening: they perish for euer, without regarde. 21 Doeth not their dignitie goe away with them? do they not die, and that without wisdom?

DouayRheims(i) 1 Then Eliphaz, the Themanite, answered, and said: 2 If we begin to speak to thee, perhaps thou wilt take it ill; but who can withhold the words he hath conceived? 3 Behold thou hast taught many, and thou hast strengthened the weary hands: 4 Thy words have confirmed them that were staggering, and thou hast strengthened the trembling knees: 5 But now the scourge is come upon thee, and thou faintest: It hath touched thee, and thou art troubled. 6 Where is thy fear, thy fortitude, thy patience, and the perfection of thy ways? 7 Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished being innocent? or when were the just destroyed? 8 On the contrary, I have seen those who work iniquity, and sow sorrows, and reap them, 9 Perishing by the blast of God, and consumed by the spirit of his wrath. 10 The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the lioness, and the teeth of the whelps of lions, are broken: 11 The tiger hath perished for want of prey, and the young lions are scattered abroad. 12 Now there was a word spoken to me in private, and my ears by stealth, as it were, received the veins of its whisper. 13 In the horror of a vision by night, when deep sleep is wont to hold men, 14 Fear seized upon me, and trembling, and all my bones were affrighted: 15 And when a spirit passed before me, the hair of my flesh stood up. 16 There stood one whose countenance I knew not, an image before my eyes, and I heard the voice, as it were, of a gentle wind. 17 Shall man be justified in comparison of God, or shall a man be more pure than his maker? 18 Behold, they that serve him are not steadfast, and in his angels he found wickedness: 19 How much more shall they that dwell in houses of clay, who have an earthly foundation, be consumed as with the moth? 20 From morning till evening they shall be cut down: and because no one understandeth, they shall perish for ever. 21 And they that shall be left, shall be taken away from them: they shall die, and not in wisdom.
KJV(i) 1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said, 2 If we assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieved? but who can withhold himself from speaking? 3 Behold, thou hast instructed many, and thou hast strengthened the weak hands. 4 Thy words have upholden him that was falling, and thou hast strengthened the feeble knees. 5 But now it is come upon thee, and thou faintest; it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled. 6 Is not this thy fear, thy confidence, thy hope, and the uprightness of thy ways? 7 Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent? or where were the righteous cut off? 8 Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same. 9 By the blast of God they perish, and by the breath of his nostrils are they consumed. 10 The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion, and the teeth of the young lions, are broken. 11 The old lion perisheth for lack of prey, and the stout lion's whelps are scattered abroad. 12 Now a thing was secretly brought to me, and mine ear received a little thereof. 13 In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falleth on men, 14 Fear came upon me, and trembling, which made all my bones to shake. 15 Then a spirit passed before my face; the hair of my flesh stood up: 16 It stood still, but I could not discern the form thereof: an image was before mine eyes, there was silence, and I heard a voice, saying, 17 Shall mortal man be more just than God? shall a man be more pure than his maker? 18 Behold, he put no trust in his servants; and his angels he charged with folly: 19 How much less in them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, which are crushed before the moth? 20 They are destroyed from morning to evening: they perish for ever without any regarding it. 21 Doth not their excellency which is in them go away? they die, even without wisdom.

Thomson(i) 1 Here Eliphaz the Thaimianite interrupting him, said, 2 Should frequent replies be made to thee in distress? But o who can bear the vehemence of thy words? 3 For if thou hast instructed many; and strengthened hands which were weak; and raised up with words them who were fainting; 4 and given courage to knees which were strengthless: 5 but now, when trouble hath come upon thee and touched thee, thou art impatient: 6 is not either thy fear grounded on folly; or thy hope? And this calamity the effect of thy conduct? 7 Recollect therefore. Who ever perished, being innocent? Or when were the righteous utterly destroyed? 8 As I have seen men ploughing improper grounds: they who sow such places shall reap sorrows. 9 By the decree of the Lord they shall perish; and by the blast of his ire be utterly consumed. 10 The strength of a lion and the roaring of a lioness and the boastful pride of dragons have been extinguished. 11 The myrmekoleon hath perished for want of food: and young lions have forsaken each other. 12 But had there been any truth in thy words; none of these evils would have happened to thee. 13 Should not my ear receive unusual things coming from him? At a dreadful sound by night, when terror appalleth men, 14 I was seized with a horror and trembling, which gave a violent shog to my bones. 15 A wind indeed blew full in my face, and my hair stood erect and my flesh quivered. 16 I started up, but could perceive nothing: I looked, but there was no form before my eyes. I only heard a sound and a voice, saying: 17 "What! can a mortal be pure before the Lord, or a man by his works be blameless?" 18 If in his servants he placeth not confidence, and in his angels perceiveth some blemish: 19 how should he treat them who dwell in houses of clay, [of which clay we indeed are] but as worms? 20 but from morning till noon: and they are no more. 21 Because they could not help themselves they were destroyed. For he blowed on them and they withered: they perished because they had not wisdom.

Brenton(i) 1 Then Eliphaz the Thaemanite answered and said, 2 Hast thou been often spoken to in distress? but who shall endure the force of thy words? 3 For whereas thou hast instructed many, and hast strengthened the hands of the weak one, 4 and hast supported the failing with words, and hast imparted courage to feeble knees. 5 Yet now that pain has come upon thee, and touched thee, thou art troubled. 6 Is not thy fear founded in folly, thy hope also, and the mischief of thy way? 7 Remember then who has perished, being pure? or when were the true-hearted utterly destroyed? 8 Accordingly as I have seen men ploughing barren places, and they that sow them will reap sorrows for themselves. 9 They shall perish by the command of the Lord, and shall be utterly consumed by the breath of his wrath. 10 The strength of the lion, and the voice of the lioness, and the exulting cry of serpents are quenched. 11 The old lion has perished for want of food, and the lions' whelps have forsaken one another. 12 But if there had been any truth in thy words, none of these evils would have befallen thee. Shall not mine ear receive excellent revelations from him? 13 But as when terror falls upon men, with dread and a sound in the night, 14 horror and trembling seized me, and caused all my bones greatly to shake. 15 And a spirit came before my face; and my hair and flesh quivered. 16 I arose and perceived it not: I looked, and there, was no form before my eyes: but I only heard a breath and a voice, saying, 17 What, shall a mortal be pure before the Lord? or a man be blameless in regard to his works? 18 Whereas he trust not in his servants, and perceives perverseness in his angels. 19 But as for them that dwell in houses of clay, of whom we also are formed of the same clay, he smites them like a moth. 20 And from the morning to evening they no longer exist: they have perished, because they cannot help themselves. 21 For he blows upon them, and they are withered: they have perished for lack of wisdom.
Brenton_Greek(i) 1 Υπολαβὼν δὲ Ἐλιφὰζ ὁ Θαιμανίτης, λέγει,
2 Μὴ πολλάκις σοι λελάληται ἐν κόπῳ; ἰσχὺν δὲ ῥημάτων σου τίς ὑποίσει; 3 Εἰ γὰρ σὺ ἐνουθέτησας πολλοὺς, καὶ χεῖρας ἀσθενοῦς παρεκάλεσας, 4 ἀσθενοῦντάς τε ἐξανέστησας ῥήμασι, γόνασί τε ἀδυνατοῦσι θάρσος περιέθηκας. 5 Νῦν δὲ ἥκει ἐπὶ σὲ πόνος καὶ ἥψατό σου, σὺ ἐσπούδασας. 6 Πότερον οὐχ ὁ φόβος σού ἐστιν ἐν ἀφροσύνῃ, καὶ ἡ ἐλπίς σου καὶ ἡ κακία τῆς ὁδοῦ σου; 7 Μνήσθητι οὖν, τίς καθαρὸς ὢν ἀπώλετο, ἢ πότε ἀληθινοὶ ὁλόῤῥιζοι ἀπώλοντο; 8 Καθʼ ὃν τρόπον εἶδον τοὺς ἀροτριῶντας τὰ ἄτοπα, οἱ δὲ σπείροντες αὐτὰ ὀδύνας θεριοῦσιν ἑαυτοῖς. 9 Ἀπὸ προστάγματος Κυρίου ἀπολοῦνται, ἀπὸ δὲ πνεύματος ὀργῆς αὐτοῦ ἀφανισθήσονται.
10 Σθένος λέοντος, φωνὴ δὲ λεαίνης, γαυρίαμα δὲ δρακόντων ἐσβέσθη. 11 Μυρμηκολέων ὤλετο παρὰ τὸ μὴ ἔχειν βορὰν, σκύμνοι δὲ λεόντων ἔλιπον ἀλλήλους.
12 Εἰ δέ τι ῥῆμα ἀληθινὸν ἐγεγόνει ἐν λόγοις σου, οὐθὲν ἄν σοι τούτων κακὸν ἀπήντησε· πότερον οὐ δέξεταί μου τὸ οὖς ἐξαίσια παρʼ αὐτοῦ; 13 Φόβοι δὲ καὶ ἠχὼ νυκτερινή ἐπιπίπτων φόβος ἐπʼ ἀνθρώπους, 14 φρίκη μοι συνήντησε καὶ τρόμος, καὶ μεγάλως μου τὰ ὀστᾶ διέσεισε, 15 καὶ πνεῦμα ἐπὶ πρόσωπόν μου ἐπῆλθεν, ἔφριξαν δέ μου τρίχες καὶ σάρκες. 16 Ἀνέστην καὶ οὐκ ἐπέγνων, εἶδον καὶ οὐκ ἦν μορφὴ πρὸ ὀφθαλμῶν μου, ἀλλʼ ἢ αὔραν καὶ φωνὴν ἤκουον. 17 Τί γάρ; μὴ καθαρὸς ἔσται βροτὸς ἐναντίον τοῦ Κυρίου; ἢ ἀπὸ τῶν ἔργων αὐτοῦ ἄμεμπτος ἀνήρ; 18 Eἰ κατὰ παίδων αὐτοῦ οὐ πιστεύει, κατὰ δὲ ἀγγέλων αὐτοῦ σκολιόν τι ἐπενόησε.
19 τοὺς δὲ κατοικοῦντας οἰκίας πηλίνας, ἐξ ὧν καὶ αὐτοὶ ἐκ τοῦ αὐτοῦ πηλοῦ ἐσμεν, ἔπαισεν αὐτοὺς σητὸς τρόπον, 20 καὶ ἀπὸ πρωῒθεν μέχρι ἑσπέρας οὐκ ἔτι εἰσὶ, παρὰ τὸ μὴ δύνασθαι αὐτοὺς ἑαυτοῖς βοηθῆσαι, ἀπώλοντο. 21 Ἐνεφύσησε γὰρ αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐξηράνθησαν, ἀπώλοντο παρὰ τὸ μὴ ἔχειν αὐτοὺς σοφίαν.
Leeser(i) 1 Then answered Eliphaz the Themanite, and said, 2 If we essay to address a word to thee, wilt thou be wearied? yet who is able to refrain from speaking? 3 Behold, thou hast ere this corrected many, and weak hands thou wast wont to strengthen. 4 Him that stumbled thy words used to uphold, and to sinking knees thou gavest vigor. 5 Yet now, when it cometh to thee, thou art wearied: it toucheth even thee, and thou art terrified. 6 Is not then thy fear of God still thy confidence, thy hope equal to the integrity of thy ways? 7 Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent? or where were the righteous destroyed? 8 Even as I have seen, that those who plough wrong-doing, and sow trouble, have to reap the same. 9 Before the breathing of God they perish, and before the breath of his nostrils they come to their end. 10 The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion, and the teeth of the young lions, are broken. 11 The old lion perisheth for lack of prey, and the whelps of the lioness have to scatter themselves abroad. 12 But to me a word came by stealth, and my ear took in a scarcely perceptible whisper thereof. 13 In intense thoughts out of visions of the night, when deep sleep falleth on men: 14 Dread came over me, with trembling, and it caused all my bones to shudder. 15 Then flitted a spirit past before my face; the hair of my body stood up: 16 It stood still, but I could not recognize its form; a figure was before my eyes, a slight whisper, then a louder voice I heard, saying, 17 Can a mortal be more righteous than God? or can a man be more pure than his Maker? 18 Behold, in his servants he putteth no trust, and his angels he chargeth with folly: 19 How much less in those that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed till they come to be eaten by the moth? 20 From morning to evening are they broken to pieces: without laying it to heart they perish for ever. 21 Behold, their excellency which is in them is torn away: they die, and this without wisdom.
YLT(i) 1 And Eliphaz the Temanite answereth and saith: — 2 Hath one tried a word with thee? —Thou art weary! And to keep in words who is able? 3 Lo, thou hast instructed many, And feeble hands thou makest strong. 4 The stumbling one do thy words raise up, And bowing knees thou dost strengthen. 5 But now, it cometh in unto thee, And thou art weary; It striketh unto thee, and thou art troubled. 6 Is not thy reverence thy confidence? Thy hope—the perfection of thy ways?
7 Remember, I pray thee, Who, being innocent, hath perished? And where have the upright been cut off? 8 As I have seen—ploughers of iniquity, And sowers of misery, reap it! 9 From the breath of God they perish, And from the spirit of His anger consumed. 10 The roaring of a lion, And the voice of a fierce lion, And teeth of young lions have been broken. 11 An old lion is perishing without prey, And the whelps of the lioness do separate.
12 And unto me a thing is secretly brought, And receive doth mine ear a little of it. 13 In thoughts from visions of the night, In the falling of deep sleep on men, 14 Fear hath met me, and trembling, And the multitude of my bones caused to fear. 15 And a spirit before my face doth pass, Stand up doth the hair of my flesh; 16 It standeth, and I discern not its aspect, A similitude is over-against mine eyes, Silence! and a voice I hear: 17 `Is mortal man than God more righteous? Than his Maker is a man cleaner? 18 Lo, in His servants He putteth no credence, Nor in His messengers setteth praise.' 19 Also—the inhabitants of houses of clay, (Whose foundation is in the dust, They bruise them before a moth.) 20 From morning to evening are beaten down, Without any regarding, for ever they perish. 21 Hath not their excellency been removed with them? They die, and not in wisdom!
JuliaSmith(i) 1 And Eliphaz the Temanite will answer and say, 2 Trying the word to thee shalt thou be weary? who shall be able to with hold in speaking? 3 Behold, thou didst instruct many, and thou wilt strengthen the weak hands. 4 Thy words will raise up the weak and thou wilt strengthen the bent knees. 5 But now it shall come to thee and thou wilt be wearied; it will touch even to thee, and thou wilt tremble. 6 Is not thy fear, thy confidence, thy hope, and the integrity of thy ways? 7 Remember now, who perished, he being innocent? and where were the upright cut off? 8 According to what I saw, they ploughing iniquity and sowing labor shall reap it 9 By the breath of God they shall perish, and from the spirit of his anger they shall be finished. 10 The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the lion, and the teeth of the young lions were broken. 11 The lion perished from failure of prey, and the sons of the lioness shall be scattered. 12 And a word shall be brought to me by stealth, and mine ear will take a transient sound from it 13 In thoughts, from visions of the night, in the falling of deep sleep upon men, 14 Fear met me, and trembling, and caused the multitude of my bones to tremble. 15 And the spirit will glide before my face; the hair of my flesh will stand erect: 16 It will stand, and I shall not recognize its appearance: a form before mine eyes; I shall hear stillness and a voice: 17 Shall a man be just above God? If a man shall be pure above him making him? 18 Behold, in his servants he will not trust, and upon his messengers he will set folly: 19 Also those dwelling in houses of clay which their foundation in the dust, being crushed before the moth. 20 From morning to evening they will be struck; from not setting to superintend they will perish. 21 Did not their remainder in them remove? They will die, and not in wisdom.
Darby(i) 1 And Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said, 2 If a word were essayed to thee, wouldest thou be grieved?

Shall a man be purer than his Maker? 18 Lo, he trusteth not his servants, and his angels he chargeth with folly: 19 How much more them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed as the moth! 20 From morning to evening are they smitten: without any heeding it, they perish for ever. 21 Is not their tent-cord torn away in them? they die, and without wisdom.

ASV(i) 1 Then answered Eliphaz the Temanite, and said, 2 If one assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieved?
But who can withhold himself from speaking? 3 Behold, thou hast instructed many,
And thou hast strengthened the weak hands. 4 Thy words have upholden him that was falling,
And thou hast made firm the feeble knees. 5 But now it is come unto thee, and thou faintest;
It toucheth thee, and thou art troubled. 6 Is not thy fear [of God] thy confidence,
[And] the integrity of thy ways thy hope? 7 Remember, I pray thee, who [ever] perished, being innocent?
Or where were the upright cut off? 8 According as I have seen, they that plow iniquity,
And sow trouble, reap the same. 9 By the breath of God they perish,
And by the blast of his anger are they consumed. 10 The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion,
And the teeth of the young lions, are broken. 11 The old lion perisheth for lack of prey,
And the whelps of the lioness are scattered abroad.
12 Now a thing was secretly brought to me,
And mine ear received a whisper thereof. 13 In thoughts from the visions of the night,
When deep sleep falleth on men, 14 Fear came upon me, and trembling,
Which made all my bones to shake. 15 Then a spirit passed before my face;
The hair of my flesh stood up. 16 It stood still, but I could not discern the appearance thereof;
A form was before mine eyes:
[There was] silence, and I heard a voice, [saying], 17 Shall mortal man be more just than God?
Shall a man be more pure than his Maker? 18 Behold, he putteth no trust in his servants;
And his angels he chargeth with folly: 19 How much more them that dwell in houses of clay,
Whose foundation is in the dust,
Who are crushed before the moth! 20 Betwixt morning and evening they are destroyed:
They perish for ever without any regarding it. 21 Is not their tent-cord plucked up within them?
They die, and that without wisdom.

JPS_ASV_Byz(i) 1 Then answered Eliphaz the Temanite, and said: 2 If one venture a word unto thee, wilt thou be weary? But who can withhold himself from speaking? 3 Behold, thou hast instructed many, and thou hast strengthened the weak hands. 4 Thy words have upholden him that was falling, and thou hast strengthened the feeble knees. 5 But now it is come upon thee, and thou art weary; it toucheth thee, and thou art affrighted. 6 Is not thy fear of God thy confidence, and thy hope the integrity of thy ways? 7 Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent? Or where were the upright cut off? 8 According as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow mischief, reap the same. 9 By the breath of God they perish, and by the blast of His anger are they consumed. 10 The lion roareth, and the fierce lion howleth - yet the teeth of the young lions are broken. 11 The old lion perisheth for lack of prey, and the whelps of the lioness are scattered abroad. 12 Now a word was secretly brought to me, and mine ear received a whisper thereof. 13 In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falleth on men, 14 Fear came upon me, and trembling, and all my bones were made to shake. 15 Then a spirit passed before my face, that made the hair of my flesh to stand up. 16 It stood still, but I could not discern the appearance thereof; a form was before mine eyes; I heard a still voice: 17 'Shall mortal man be just before God? Shall a man be pure before his Maker? 18 Behold, He putteth no trust in His servants, and His angels He chargeth with folly; 19 How much more them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed before the moth! 20 Betwixt morning and evening they are shattered; they perish for ever without any regarding it. 21 Is not their tent-cord plucked up within them? They die, and that without wisdom.'
Rotherham(i) 1 Then responded Eliphaz the Temanite, and said:–– 2 If one attempt a word unto thee, wilt thou be impatient? But, to restrain speech, who, can endure? 3 Lo! thou hast admonished many, and, slack hands, hast thou been wont to uphold: 4 Him that was stumbling, have thy words raised up, and, sinking knees, hast thou strengthened. 5 But, now, it cometh upon thee, and thou despairest, It smiteth even thee, and thou art dismayed. 6 Is not, thy reverence, thy confidence? And is not, thy hope, the very integrity of thy ways?
7 Remember, I pray thee, who, being innocent, hath perished, or when, the upright, have been cut off. 8 So far as I have seen, They who plow for iniquity and sow misery, reap the same: 9 By the blast of GOD, they perish, And, by the breath of his nostrils, are they consumed: 10 [Notwithstanding] the roaring of the lion, and the noise of the howling lion, yet, the teeth of the fierce lions, are broken: 11 The strong lion perishing for lack of prey, Even the whelps of the lioness, are scattered.
12 But, unto me, something was brought by stealth,––and mine ear caught a whispering of the same: 13 When there were thoughts, from visions of the night,––When deep sleep falleth upon men, 14 Dread, came upon me, and trembling, The multitude of my bones, it put in dread: 15 Then, a spirit, over my face, floated along, The hair of my flesh bristled–up: 16 It stood still, but I could not distinguish its appearance, I looked, but there was no form before mine eyes,––A whispering voice, I heard:–– 17 Shall, mortal man, be more just than GOD? Or a man be more pure than, his Maker? 18 Lo! in his own servants, he trusteth not, and, his own messengers, he chargeth with error: 19 How much more the dwellers in houses of clay, which, in the dust, have their foundation, which are crushed sooner than a moth: 20 Betwixt morning and evening, are they broken in pieces, With none to save, they utterly perish: 21 Is not their tent–rope within them, torn away? They die, disrobed of wisdom!
CLV(i) 1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said: 2 If someone tries a word with you, would you tire? Yet who can restrain from declarations? 3 Behold, you have disciplined many, And you always fortified the slacking hands. 4 Your declarations raised the one stumbling, And you made the bowing knees resolute. 5 But now it is coming on you, and you tire; It is touching unto you, and you panic. 6 Is not your pious fear your confidence, And your flawless ways your expectation? 7 Remember, I pray, who that is innocent perishes? And where then are the upright suppressed? 8 Just as I have seen, those who plow lawlessness And those who sow misery are harvesting it. 9 By the breath of Eloah are they perishing, And by the spirit of His nostrils are they being finished. 10 There is the roaring of the lion and the voice of the black lion, Yet the teeth of the sheltered lions are broken out;" 11 The long-maned lion is perishing from lack of prey, And the cubs of the lioness are parted away. 12 Now a word was brought stealthily to me, And my ear took hold of a little buzz of it. 13 In disquieting thoughts from visions of the night, In that stupor which falls on mortals, 14 Alarm befell me and quivering, And it made the multitude of my bones afraid. 15 Then a spirit passed on before my face; The hair of my flesh bristled. 16 Something stood there, yet I could not recognize its appearance; A representation was in front of my eyes; It was still, and I heard a voice. 17 Is a mortal more righteous than Eloah? Or is a master more pure than His Maker? 18 Behold, if He places no faith in His servants, And He charges His messengers with impropriety, 19 How much more so those who tabernacle in houses of clay, Whose foundation is in the soil? Forces crush them like a moth. 20 From morning to evening they are being pounded; Without being regarded, they perish permanently. 21 Has not their tent-cord been lugged out from them? They die, but not with wisdom.
BBE(i) 1 And Eliphaz the Temanite made answer and said, 2 If one says a word, will it be a weariness to you? but who is able to keep from saying what is in his mind? 3 Truly, you have been a helper to others, and you have made feeble hands strong; 4 He who was near to falling has been lifted up by your words, and you have given strength to bent knees. 5 But now it has come on you and it is a weariness to you; you are touched by it and your mind is troubled. 6 Is not your fear of God your support, and your upright way of life your hope? 7 Have you ever seen destruction come to an upright man? or when were the god-fearing ever cut off? 8 What I have seen is that those by whom trouble has been ploughed, and evil planted, get the same for themselves. 9 By the breath of God destruction takes them, and by the wind of his wrath they are cut off. 10 Though the noise of the lion and the sounding of his voice, may be loud, the teeth of the young lions are broken. 11 The old lion comes to his end for need of food, and the young of the she-lion go wandering in all directions. 12 A word was given to me secretly, and the low sound of it came to my ears. 13 In troubled thoughts from visions of the night, when deep sleep comes on men, 14 Fear came on me and shaking, and my bones were full of trouble; 15 And a breath was moving over my face; the hair of my flesh became stiff: 16 Something was present before me, but I was not able to see it clearly; there was a form before my eyes: a quiet voice came to my ears, saying: 17 May a man be upright before God? or a man be clean before his Maker? 18 Truly, he puts no faith in his servants, and he sees error in his angels; 19 How much more those living in houses of earth, whose bases are in the dust! They are crushed more quickly than an insect; 20 Between morning and evening they are completely broken; they come to an end for ever, and no one takes note. 21 If their tent-cord is pulled up, do they not come to an end, and without wisdom?
MKJV(i) 1 And Eliphaz the Temanite answered: 2 Shall one try a word with you, you who are weary? But who can hold back with words? 3 Behold, you have instructed many, and you have made the weak hands strong. 4 Your words have upheld him who was falling, and you have made strong the feeble knees. 5 But now it has come upon you, and you faint. It touches you, and you are troubled. 6 Is not your reverence your hope? Is not your hope the uprightness of your ways? 7 Remember, please, who ever perished, being innocent? Or where were the righteous cut off? 8 As I have seen, the ones who plow iniquity and sow wickedness reap the same. 9 By the blast of God they perish, and by the breath of His nostrils they are destroyed. 10 The roar of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion, and the teeth of the young lions, are broken. 11 The strong lion perishes for lack of prey, and the strong lion's cubs are scattered abroad. 12 And a word was secretly brought to me, and my ear received a little of it. 13 In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falls upon men, 14 fear came upon me, and trembling, which made all my bones shake. 15 And a spirit passed before my face; the hair of my flesh stood up. 16 It stood still, but I could not tell the form of it. An image was before my eyes; silence; then I heard a voice, 17 Shall mortal man be more just than God? Shall a man be more pure than his Maker? 18 Behold, He puts no trust in His servants, and His angels He charges with folly! 19 How much less in those who live in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed before the moth? 20 They are destroyed from morning till evening; they perish forever without anyone caring. 21 Is not their tent cord plucked up within them?

The mighty more pure than his Worker? 18 Behold, he puts no trust in his servants; and he sets his angels with braggadocio; 19 yes, they who tabernacle in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust crush at the face of the moth 20 - crushed from morning to evening; they destruct in perpetuity without setting: 21 those remaining pull stakes - they die, even without wisdom.

EJ2000(i) 1 ¶ Then Eliphaz, the Temanite, answered and said, 2 If we attempt to commune with thee, thou wilt be grieved. But who can withhold himself from speaking? 3 Behold, thou hast instructed many, and thou hast strengthened the weak hands. 4 Thy words have upheld the one that was falling, and thou hast strengthened the feeble knees. 5 But now that it is come upon thee, thou art grieved; it touches thee, and thou art troubled. 6 Is not this thy fear, thy confidence, thy hope, and the integrity of thy ways? 7 ¶ Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent? Or where were the righteous cut off? 8 Even as I have seen, those that plow iniquity and sow wickedness, reap the same. 9 By the breath of God they perish, and by the spirit of his anger they are consumed. 10 The roaring of the lion and the voice of the fierce lion and the teeth of the young lions, are broken. 11 The old lion perishes for lack of prey, and the stout lion’s whelps are scattered abroad. 12 ¶ Now the matter was also hidden from me, but my ear has perceived a little of it. 13 In imaginations of visions of the night, when deep sleep falls upon men, 14 fear came upon me and trembling, which made all my bones to shake. 15 Then a spirit passed before me which caused the hair of my flesh to stand up. 16 A ghost stood in front of me, whose face I did not recognize, and I heard it say, 17 Shall mortal man be more just than God? Shall a man be more pure than his maker? 18 Behold, he put no trust in his slaves, and his angels he charged with folly. 19 How much more with those that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who shall be crushed by the moth! 20 They are destroyed from morning to evening; they perish for ever without anyone regarding it. 21 Does their beauty perish with them? They die and do not know.
CAB(i) 1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said, 2 Have you been often spoken to in distress? But who shall endure the force of your words? 3 For seeing you have instructed many, and have strengthened the hands of the weak one, 4 and have supported the failing with words, and have imparted courage to feeble knees. 5 Yet now that pain has come upon you, and touched you, you are troubled. 6 Is not your fear founded in folly, your hope also, and the mischief of your way? 7 Remember then who has perished, being pure? Or when were the true-hearted utterly destroyed? 8 Accordingly, as I have seen men plowing barren places, and they that sow them will reap sorrows for themselves. 9 They shall perish by the command of the Lord, and shall be utterly consumed by the breath of His wrath. 10 The strength of the lion, and the voice of the lioness, and the exulting cry of serpents are quenched. 11 The old lion has perished for want of food, and the lions' whelps have forsaken one another. 12 But if there had been any truth in your words, none of these evils would have befallen you. Shall not my ear receive excellent revelations from Him? 13 But as when terror falls upon men, with dread and a sound in the night, 14 horror and trembling seized me, and caused all my bones greatly to shake. 15 And a spirit came before my face; and my hair and flesh quivered. 16 I arose and perceived it not. I looked, and there was no form before my eyes: but I only heard a breath and a voice, saying, 17 What, shall a mortal be pure before the Lord? Or a man be blameless in regard to his works? 18 Since he trusts not in his servants, and perceives perverseness in his angels. 19 But as for them that dwell in houses of clay, of whom we also are formed of the same clay, He smites them like a moth. 20 And from the morning to evening they no longer exist — they have perished, because they cannot help themselves. 21 For He blows upon them, and they are withered: they have perished for lack of wisdom.
LXX2012(i) 1 Then Eliphaz the Thaemanite answered and said, 2 Hast you been often spoken to in distress? but who shall endure the force of your words? 3 For whereas you have instructed many, and have strengthened the hands of the weak one, 4 and have supported the failing with words, and have imparted courage to feeble knees. 5 Yet now [that] pain has come upon you, and touched you, you are troubled. 6 Is not your fear [founded] in folly, your hope also, and the mischief of your way? 7 Remember then who has perished, being pure? or when were the true-hearted utterly destroyed? 8 Accordingly as I have seen men plowing barren places, and they that sow them will reap sorrows for themselves. 9 They shall perish by the command of the Lord, and shall be utterly consumed by the breath of his wrath. 10 The strength of the lion, and the voice of the lioness, and the exulting cry of serpents are quenched. 11 The old lion has perished for lack of food, and the lions' whelps have forsaken one another. 12 But if there had been any truth in your words, none of these evils would have befallen you. Shall not mine ear receive excellent [revelations] from him? 13 But [as when] terror falls upon men, with dread and a sound in the night, 14 horror and trembling seized me, and caused all my bones greatly to shake. 15 And a spirit came before my face; and my hair and flesh quivered. 16 I arose and perceived it not: I looked, and there, was no form before my eyes: but I only heard a breath and a voice, [saying], 17 What, shall a mortal be pure before the Lord? or a man be blameless in regard to his works? 18 Whereas he trust not in his servants, and perceives perverseness in his angels. 19 But [as for] them that dwell in houses of clay, of whom we also are formed of the same clay, he smites them like a moth. 20 And from the morning to evening they no longer exist: they have perished, because they can’t help themselves. 21 For he blows upon them, and they are withered: they have perished for lack of wisdom.
NSB(i) 1 ELIPHAZ THE TEMANITE REPLIED TO JOB: 2 »If someone tries to talk to you, will you become impatient? But who can keep from talking? 3 »Look, you have instructed many people. When hands were weak, you made them strong. 4 »When someone stumbled, you lifted him up with your words. When knees were weak, you gave them strength. 5 »But trouble comes to you, and you are impatient. It touches you, and you panic. 6 »Does your respect for God give you confidence and your lifetime of integrity give you hope? 7 »Now think about this: Which innocent person ever died an untimely death? Find me a decent person who has been destroyed. 8 »When I saw those who plowed wickedness and planted misery, they gathered its harvest. 9 »God destroys them with his breath and kills them with a blast of his anger. 10 »The roar of the lion and the growl of the ferocious lion are loud. The young lions have had their teeth knocked out. 11 »The old lions die without any prey to eat, and the cubs of the lioness are scattered.« 12 Eliphaz of Teman continued: »I was told something secretly and heard something whispered in my ear. 13 »I am with disturbing thoughts from visions in the night, when deep sleep falls on people. 14 »Fear and trembling came over me, and all my bones shook. 15 »A spirit passed in front of me. It made my hair stand on end. 16 »Something stood there. I could not tell what it was. A vague image was in front of my eyes. I heard a soft voice say: 17 »Can any mortal be righteous to God? Can any human being be pure to his maker? 18 »You see God does not trust his own servants. He accuses his angels of making mistakes. 19 »How much more will he accuse those who live in clay houses that have their foundation in the dust? Those houses can be crushed quicker than a moth! 20 »From morning to evening, they are shattered. They will disappear forever without anyone noticing. 21 »Have the ropes of their tent been loosened? Will they die without wisdom?«
ISV(i) 1 Eliphaz: the Innocent Don’t SufferIn reply, Eliphaz from Teman answered: 2 “Will you get offended if somebody tries to talk to you? Who can keep from speaking at a time like this? 3 Look! You’ve admonished many people, and you’ve strengthened feeble hands. 4 A word from you has supported those who have stumbled, and has strengthened faltering knees. 5 “But now it’s your turn, and you’re the one who is worn out! Now it’s striking you, and you’re dismayed! 6 “Your fear of God has been your confidence, hasn’t it? The integrity of your life has been your hope, hasn’t it? 7 Now please think: Who has ever perished when they’re innocent? Where have the upright been destroyed? 8 It’s been my experience that those who plow the soil of iniquity and those who sow the seed of trouble will reap their harvest! 9 They perish by the breath of God; they are consumed by the storm that is his anger. 10 “The lioness may roar, and the lion cub may growl; but even the ivory teeth of the full grown lion are broken. 11 Full grown lions die when they cannot find prey; that’s when the lion cubs are scattered. 12 “A message was confided to me; my ear caught a whisper of it. 13 Disquieting thoughts from dreams at night; when deep sleep falls on everyone. 14 A fear fell upon me, along with trembling that caused all my bones to shake in terror. 15 A spirit glided past me and made the hair on my skin to bristle. 16 It remained standing, but I couldn’t recognize its appearance. A form appeared before my eyes; At first there was silence, and then this voice: 17 ‘Can a mortal person be more righteous than God? Or can the purity of the valiant exceed that of his maker?’ 18 “Indeed, since he doesn’t trust his servants, since he charges his angels with error, 19 how much less confidence does he have in those who dwell in houses of clay; who were formed from a foundation in dust and can perish like a moth? 20 They are defeated between morning and evening; they perish forever—and no one notices! 21 Their wealth perishes with them, doesn’t it? They die, and do so without having wisdom, don’t they?”
LEB(i) 1 Then* Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said, 2 "If someone would test a word with you, would you be offended? But* who can refrain from speaking? 3 Look, you have instructed many, and you have strengthened weak hands. 4 Your words have raised up the one who stumbles, and you have strengthened knees giving way. 5 But now it has come to you, and you are worn out; it touches you, and you are horrified. 6 Is not your fear in God your confidence? Is not your hope even* the integrity of your ways? 7 "⌊Think⌋* now, who has perished who is innocent? Or* where are the upright destroyed? 8 Just as I have seen, plowers of mischief and sowers of trouble will reap it. 9 By* the breath of God they perish, and by* the blast of his anger they come to an end. 10 The roar of the lion and the voice of a lion in its prime, and the teeth of the young lions are broken. 11 The lion is perishing without* prey, and the lion's whelps are scattered. 12 "And a word came stealing to me, and my ear received the whisper from it. 13 Amid troubling thoughts from night visions, at the falling of deep sleep on men, 14 dread met me, and trembling, and it made many of my bones shake. 15 And a spirit glided before my face; the hair of my flesh* bristled. 16 It stood still, but* I could not recognize its appearance; a form was ⌊before⌋* my eyes; there was a hush, and I heard a voice: 17 'Can a human being be more righteous than God, or can a man be more pure than his Maker? 18 Look, he does not trust in his servants and he charges his angels with error. 19 How much more dwellers in clay houses, whose foundation is in the dust? They are crushed like a moth. 20 ⌊Between morning and evening⌋* they are destroyed; without anyone regarding it they perish forever. 21 Is not their tent cord pulled up within them? They die, but* not in* wisdom.'
BSB(i) 1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite replied: 2 “If one ventures a word with you, will you be wearied? Yet who can keep from speaking? 3 Surely you have instructed many, and have strengthened their feeble hands. 4 Your words have steadied those who stumbled; you have braced the knees that were buckling. 5 But now trouble has come upon you, and you are weary. It strikes you, and you are dismayed. 6 Is your reverence not your confidence, and the uprightness of your ways your hope? 7 Consider now, I plead: Who, being innocent, has ever perished? Or where have the upright been destroyed? 8 As I have observed, those who plow iniquity and those who sow trouble reap the same. 9 By the breath of God they perish, and by the blast of His anger they are consumed. 10 The lion may roar, and the fierce lion may growl, yet the teeth of the young lions are broken. 11 The old lion perishes for lack of prey, and the cubs of the lioness are scattered. 12 Now a word came to me secretly; my ears caught a whisper of it. 13 In disquieting visions in the night, when deep sleep falls on men, 14 fear and trembling came over me and made all my bones shudder. 15 Then a spirit glided past my face, and the hair on my body bristled. 16 It stood still, but I could not discern its appearance; a form loomed before my eyes, and I heard a whispering voice: 17 ‘Can a mortal be more righteous than God, or a man more pure than his Maker? 18 If God puts no trust in His servants, and He charges His angels with error, 19 how much more those who dwell in houses of clay, whose foundations are in the dust, who can be crushed like a moth! 20 They are smashed to pieces from dawn to dusk; unnoticed, they perish forever. 21 Are not their tent cords pulled up, so that they die without wisdom?’

MLV(i) 1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said, 2 If a man tries to speak with you, will you be grieved? But who can withhold himself from speaking? 3 Behold, you have instructed many and you have strengthened the weak hands. 4 Your words have upheld him who was falling and you have made firm the feeble knees.
5 But now it comes to you and you faint. It touches you and you are troubled.
6 Is not your fear of God your confidence, the integrity of your ways your hope? 7 I beseech you, remember those who perished, being innocent? Or where were the upright cut off?
8 According to what I have seen, those who plow wickedness and sow trouble, reap the same. 9 By the breath of God they perish and by the blast of his anger they are consumed. 10 The roaring of the lion and the voice of the fierce lion and the teeth of the young lions, are broken. 11 The old lion perishes for lack of prey and the cubs of the lioness are scattered abroad.
12 Now a thing was secretly brought to me and my ear received a whisper of it. 13 In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falls on men, 14 fear came upon me and trembling, which made all my bones to shake. 15 Then a spirit passed before my face; the hair of my flesh stood up. 16 It stood still, but I could not discern the appearance of it. A form was before my eyes.
There was silence and I heard a voice, saying, 17 Shall mortal man be more just than God? Shall a man be more pure than his maker? 18 Behold, he puts no trust in his servants and he charges his messengers with error.
19 How much more those who dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed before the moth! 20 Between morning and evening they are destroyed. They perish forever without any regarding it. 21 Is not their tent-cord plucked up within them? They die and that without wisdom.

VIN(i) 1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered, 2 "If someone tries to talk to you, will you become impatient?

And where have the upright been cut off? 8 Just as I have seen, those who plow lawlessness And those who sow misery are harvesting it. 9 By the breath of God they perish, and by the blast of his anger they are consumed. 10 The lion roareth, and the fierce lion howleth - yet the teeth of the young lions are broken. 11 The old lion perisheth for lack of prey, and the whelps of the lioness are scattered. 12 Now a thing was secretly brought to me; my ear received a whisper of it. 13 In imaginations of visions of the night, when deep sleep falls upon men, 14 fear and trembling met me, and made my many bones dread. 15 A spirit glided past me and made the hair on my skin to bristle. 16 It stood still, but I could not tell the form of it. An image was before my eyes; silence; then I heard a voice, 17 Can a mortal be more righteous than God? or can a man be more pure than his Maker? 18 Look, he does not trust in his servants and he charges his angels with error. 19 How much more, those who dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed before the moth! 20 Between morning and evening they are destroyed; without anyone regarding it they perish forever. 21 "Have the ropes of their tent been loosened? Will they die without wisdom?"
Luther1545(i) 1 Da antwortete Eliphas von Theman und sprach: 2 Du hast's vielleicht nicht gerne, so man versucht, mit dir zu reden; aber wer kann sich's enthalten? 3 Siehe, du hast viele unterweiset und lasse Hände gestärkt; 4 deine Rede hat die Gefallenen aufgerichtet, und die bebenden Kniee hast du bekräftiget. 5 Nun es aber an dich kommt, wirst du weich; und nun es dich trifft, erschrickst du. 6 Ist das deine (Gottes-)Furcht, dein Trost, deine Hoffnung und deine Frömmigkeit? 7 Lieber, gedenke, wo ist ein Unschuldiger umkommen, oder wo sind die Gerechten je vertilget? 8 Wie ich wohl gesehen habe, die da Mühe pflügten und Unglück säeten und ernten sie auch ein, 9 daß sie durch den Odem Gottes sind umkommen und vom Geist seines Zorns vertilget. 10 Das Brüllen der Löwen und die Stimme der großen Löwen und die Zähne der jungen Löwen sind zerbrochen. 11 Der Löwe ist umkommen, daß er nicht mehr raubet, und die Jungen der Löwin sind zerstreuet. 12 Und zu mir ist kommen ein heimlich Wort, und mein Ohr hat ein Wörtlein aus demselben empfangen. 13 Da ich Gesichte betrachtete in der Nacht, wenn der Schlaf auf die Leute fällt, 14 da kam mich Furcht und Zittern an, und alle meine Gebeine erschraken. 15 Und da der Geist vor mir überging, stunden mir die Haare zu Berge an meinem Leibe. 16 Da stund ein Bild vor meinen Augen, und ich kannte seine Gestalt nicht; es war stille, und ich hörete eine Stimme: 17 Wie mag ein Mensch gerechter sein denn Gott, oder ein Mann reiner sein, denn der ihn gemacht hat? 18 Siehe, unter seinen Knechten ist keiner ohne Tadel, und in seinen Boten findet er Torheit. 19 Wie viel mehr, die in den leimenen Häusern wohnen und welche auf Erden gegründet sind, werden von den Würmern gefressen werden. 20 Es währet von Morgen bis an den Abend, so werden sie ausgehauen; und ehe sie es gewahr werden, sind sie gar dahin; 21 und ihre Übrigen vergehen und sterben auch unversehens.

Nochtans wie zal zich van woorden kunnen onthouden? 3 Zie, gij hebt velen onderwezen, en gij hebt slappe handen gesterkt; 4 Uw woorden hebben den struikelende opgericht, en de krommende knieën hebt gij vastgesteld; 5 Maar nu komt het aan u, en gij zijt verdrietig; het raakt tot u, en gij wordt beroerd. 6 Was niet uw vreze Gods uw hoop, en de oprechtheid uwer wegen uw verwachting? 7 Gedenk toch, wie is de onschuldige, die vergaan zij; en waar zijn de oprechten verdelgd? 8 Maar gelijk als ik gezien heb: die ondeugd ploegen, en moeite zaaien, maaien dezelve. 9 Van den adem Gods vergaan zij, en van het geblaas van Zijn neus worden zij verdaan. 10 De brulling des leeuws, en de stem des fellen leeuws, en de tanden der jonge leeuwen worden verbroken. 11 De oude leeuw vergaat, omdat er geen roof is, en de jongens eens oudachtigen leeuws worden verstrooid. 12 Voorts is tot mij een woord heimelijk gebracht, en mijn oor heeft een weinigje daarvan gevat; 13 Onder de gedachten van de gezichten des nachts, als diepe slaap valt op de mensen; 14 Kwam mij schrik en beving over, en verschrikte de veelheid mijner beenderen. 15 Toen ging voorbij mijn aangezicht een geest; hij deed het haar mijns vleses te berge rijzen. 16 Hij stond, doch ik kende zijn gedaante niet; een beeltenis was voor mijn ogen; er was stilte, en ik hoorde een stem, zeggende: 17 Zou een mens rechtvaardiger zijn dan God? Zou een man reiner zijn dan zijn Maker? 18 Zie, op Zijn knechten zou Hij niet vertrouwen; hoewel Hij in Zijn engelen klaarheid gesteld heeft. 19 Hoeveel te min op degenen, die lemen huizen bewonen, welker grondslag in het stof is? Zij worden verbrijzeld voor de motten. 20 Van den morgen tot den avond worden zij vermorzeld; zonder dat men er acht op slaat, vergaan zij in eeuwigheid. 21 Verreist niet hun uitnemendheid met hen? Zij sterven, maar niet in wijsheid.

  1 H6030 H8799 Toen antwoordde H464 Elifaz H8489 , de Themaniet H559 H8799 , en zeide:
  2 H1697 Zo wij een woord H5254 H8765 opnemen H413 tegen H3811 H8799 u, zult gij verdrietig zijn H4310 ? Nochtans wie H4405 zal zich van woorden H3201 H8799 kunnen H6113 H8800 onthouden?
  3 H2009 Zie H7227 , gij hebt velen H3256 H8765 onderwezen H7504 , en gij hebt slappe H3027 handen H2388 H8762 gesterkt;
  4 H4405 Uw woorden H3782 H8802 hebben den struikelende H6965 H8686 opgericht H3766 H8802 , en de krommende H1290 knieen H553 H8762 hebt gij vastgesteld;
  5 H3588 Maar H6258 nu H935 H8799 komt het H413 aan H3811 H8799 u, en gij zijt verdrietig H5060 H8799 ; het raakt H5704 tot H926 H8735 u, en gij wordt beroerd.
  6 H3808 Was niet H3374 uw vreze H3690 [Gods] uw hoop H8537 , en de oprechtheid H1870 uwer wegen H8615 uw verwachting?
  7 H2142 H8798 Gedenk H4994 toch H4310 , wie H1931 is H5355 de onschuldige H6 H8804 , die vergaan zij H375 ; en waar H3477 zijn de oprechten H3582 H8738 verdelgd?
  8 H834 [Maar] gelijk als H7200 H8804 ik gezien heb H205 : die ondeugd H2790 H8802 ploegen H5999 , en moeite H2232 H8802 zaaien H7114 H8799 , maaien dezelve.
  9 H4480 Van H5397 den adem H433 Gods H6 H8799 vergaan zij H4480 , en van H7307 het geblaas H639 van Zijn neus H3615 H8799 worden zij verdaan.
  10 H7581 De brulling H738 des leeuws H6963 , en de stem H7826 des fellen leeuws H8127 , en de tanden H3715 der jonge leeuwen H5421 H8738 worden verbroken.
  11 H3918 De oude leeuw H6 H8802 vergaat H4480 , omdat H1097 er geen H2964 roof H1121 is, en de jongens H3833 eens oudachtigen leeuws H6504 H8691 worden verstrooid.
  12 H413 Voorts is tot H1697 mij een woord H1589 H8792 heimelijk gebracht H241 , en mijn oor H8102 heeft een weinigje H4480 daarvan H3947 H8799 gevat;
  13 H5587 Onder de gedachten H4480 van H2384 de gezichten H3915 des nachts H8639 , als diepe slaap H5307 H8800 valt H5921 op H582 de mensen;
  14 H7122 H8804 Kwam H6343 mij schrik H7461 en beving H6342 H8689 over, en verschrikte H7230 de veelheid H6106 mijner beenderen.
  15 H2498 H8799 H5921 Toen ging voorbij H6440 mijn aangezicht H7307 een geest H5568 H0 ; hij deed H8185 het haar H1320 mijns vleses H5568 H8762 te berge rijzen.
  16 H5975 H8799 Hij stond H5234 H8686 , doch ik kende H4758 zijn gedaante H3808 niet H8544 ; een beeltenis H5048 was voor H5869 mijn ogen H1827 ; er was stilte H8085 H8799 , en ik hoorde H6963 een stem, [zeggende]:
  17 H582 Zou een mens H6663 H8799 rechtvaardiger H4480 zijn dan H433 God H518 ? H1397 Zou een man H2891 H8799 reiner H4480 zijn dan H6213 H8802 zijn Maker?
  18 H2005 Zie H5650 , op Zijn knechten H3808 zou Hij niet H539 H8686 vertrouwen H4397 ; hoewel Hij in Zijn engelen H8417 klaarheid H7760 H8799 gesteld heeft.
  19 H637 Hoeveel te min H2563 [op] degenen, die lemen H1004 huizen H7931 H8802 bewonen H834 , welker H3247 grondslag H6083 in het stof H1792 H8762 is? Zij worden verbrijzeld H6440 voor H6211 de motten.
  20 H4480 Van H1242 den morgen H5704 tot H6153 den avond H3807 H8714 worden zij vermorzeld H4480 H1097 ; zonder H7760 H8688 dat men er acht op slaat H6 H8799 , vergaan zij H5331 in eeuwigheid.
  21 H5265 H8738 Verreist H3808 niet H3499 hun uitnemendheid H4191 H8799 met hen? Zij sterven H3808 , maar niet H2451 in wijsheid.
Giguet(i) 1 ¶ Or, Eliphaz le Thémanite répondit: 2 Est-ce que tu parles pour la première fois depuis que tu souffres? Qui supportera la violence de tes discours? 3 Car si tu as consolé beaucoup d’affligés, si tu as raffermi des mains défaillantes, 4 Si par tes paroles, tu as ranimé des faibles, si tu as donné du courage à ceux dont les genoux fléchissaient, 5 Maintenant que le mal t’a visité et t’a saisi, d’où vient que tu en es tout accablé? 6 Ta terreur n’est-elle pas insensée, ton angoisse montre-t-elle autre chose que la méchanceté de tes voies? 7 ¶ Recueille tes souvenirs; qui donc étant resté pur a péri? Quel homme sincère a été détruit radicalement? 8 Comme ceux qui labouraient et ensemençaient des contrées vaines et que j’ai vu moissonner pour eux des douleurs? 9 Ceux-là seront anéantis par l’ordre de Dieu; ils seront effacés par le souffle de sa colère. 10 Ainsi la force du lion, les rugissements de la lionne, l’audace des dragons s’éteignent. 11 Ainsi le fourmilion meurt, faute d’un brin d’herbe, et les lionceaux quittant leur mère, se dispersent. 12 ¶ S’il y a quelque chose de vrai dans tes paroles, il n’en est résulté aucun soulagement à tes maux. Et moi, dois-je négliger les avertissements extraordinaires qui, de la part du Seigneur, sont venus à mes oreilles? 13 Ecoute: comme l’effroi se répandait parmi les hommes pendant l’horreur et les bruits sinistres de la nuit, 14 Un tremblement, un frisson me saisirent, et mes os s’entrechoquèrent. 15 Et un esprit se posa sur mon visage, et mes cheveux et mes chairs en frémirent. 16 Je me levai et ne vis rien; je reconnus qu’il n’y avait aucune forme devant mes yeux; et je sentis un souffle et j’entendis une voix, et elle disait: 17 Quoi donc! Est-ce qu’un mortel sera pur devant le Seigneur? Est-ce qu’un homme sera irréprochable en ses œuvres, 18 Puisque Dieu ne peut se fier à ses serviteurs et qu’il découvre des défauts à ses anges? 19 Il écrase comme des vermisseaux ceux qui habitent des maisons de boue, de cette boue d’où nous avons été tirés. 20 L’aurore se lève sur eux et le soir ils ne sont plus; pour n’avoir pu s’aider eux-mêmes, ils ont péri. 21 Car Dieu d’un souffle les a desséchés, et ils sont morts parce qu’ils manquaient de sagesse.
DarbyFR(i) 1
Et Éliphaz, le Thémanite, répondit et dit: 2 Si nous essayons de t'adresser une parole, en seras-tu irrité? Mais qui pourrait se retenir de parler? 3 Voici, tu en as enseigné beaucoup, et tu as fortifié les mains languissantes; 4 Tes paroles ont tenu droit celui qui chancelait, et tu as affermi les genoux qui ployaient; 5 Mais maintenant le malheur est venu sur toi, et tu es irrité; il t'atteint, et tu es troublé. 6 Ta crainte de Dieu n'est-elle pas ta confiance, et l'intégrité de tes voies, ton espérance? 7
Souviens-toi, je te prie, qui a péri étant innocent? et où les hommes droits ont-ils été détruits? 8 Selon ce que j'ai vu, ceux qui labourent l'iniquité et qui sèment la misère, la moissonnent. 9 Ils périssent par le souffle de +Dieu, et sont consumés par le souffle de ses narines. 10 Le rugissement du lion et la voix du lion rugissant sont étouffés, et les dents des jeunes lions sont brisées; 11 Le fort lion périt faute de proie, et les petits de la lionne sont dispersés. 12
Une parole vint à moi secrètement, et mon oreille en saisit la susurration. 13 Au milieu des pensées que font naître les visions de la nuit, quand un sommeil profond tombe sur les hommes, 14 La frayeur vint sur moi, et le frisson, et elle fit trembler la multitude de mes os; 15 Et un esprit passa devant moi: les cheveux de ma chair se dressèrent. 16 Il se tint là; je ne reconnus pas son apparence: une forme était devant mes yeux. J'entendis un léger murmure et une voix: 17 Un mortel sera-t-il plus juste que +Dieu, l'homme sera-t-il plus pur que celui qui l'a fait? 18 Voici, il ne se fie pas à ses serviteurs, et ses anges il les charge de folie; 19 Combien plus à ceux qui habitent dans des maisons d'argile dont le fondement est dans la poussière, qui sont écrasés comme la teigne! 20 Du matin au soir, ils sont frappés; ils périssent pour toujours sans qu'on y fasse attention. 21 Leurs cordes ne leur sont-elles pas arrachées? Ils meurent, et sans sagesse.
Martin(i) 1 Alors Eliphas Témanite prit la parole, et dit : 2 Si nous entreprenons de te parler, te fâcheras-tu ? mais qui pourrait s'empêcher de parler ? 3 Voilà, tu en as enseigné plusieurs, et tu as renforcé les mains lâches. 4 Tes paroles ont affermi ceux qui chancelaient, et tu as fortifié les genoux qui pliaient. 5 Et maintenant que ceci t'est arrivé, tu t'en fâches! il t'a atteint, et tu en es tout troublé. 6 Ta piété n'a-t-elle pas été ton espérance ? et l'intégrité de tes voies n'a-t-elle pas été ton attente ? 7 Rappelle, je te prie, dans ton souvenir, où est l'innocent qui ait jamais péri, et où les hommes droits ont-ils jamais été exterminés ? 8 Mais j'ai vu que ceux qui labourent l'iniquité, et qui sèment l'outrage, les moissonnent. 9 Ils périssent par le souffle de Dieu, et ils sont consumés par le vent de ses narines. 10 Il étouffe le rugissement du lion, et le cri d'un grand lion, et il arrache les dents des lionceaux. 11 Le lion périt par faute de proie, et les petits du vieux lion sont dissipés. 12 Mais quant à moi, une parole m'a été adressée en secret, et mon oreille en a entendu quelque peu. 13 Pendant les pensées diverses des visions de la nuit, quand un profond sommeil saisit les hommes, 14 Une frayeur et un tremblement me saisirent qui étonnèrent tous mes os. 15 Un esprit passa devant moi, et mes cheveux en furent tout hérissés. 16 Il se tint là, mais je ne connus point son visage; une représentation était devant mes yeux, et j'ouïs une voix basse qui disait : 17 L'homme sera-t-il plus juste que Dieu ? l'homme sera-t-il plus pur que celui qui l'a fait ? 18 Voici, il ne s'assure point sur ses serviteurs, et il met la lumière dans ses Anges : 19 Combien moins s'assurera-t-il en ceux qui demeurent dans des maisons d'argile; en ceux dont le fondement est dans la poussière, et qui sont consumés à la rencontre d'un vermisseau ? 20 Du matin au soir ils sont brisés, et, sans qu'on s'en aperçoive, ils périssent pour toujours. 21 L'excellence qui était en eux, n'a-t-elle pas été emportée ? Ils meurent sans être sages.
Segond(i) 1 Eliphaz de Théman prit la parole et dit: 2 Si nous osons ouvrir la bouche, en seras-tu peiné? Mais qui pourrait garder le silence? 3 Voici, tu as souvent enseigné les autres, Tu as fortifié les mains languissantes, 4 Tes paroles ont relevé ceux qui chancelaient, Tu as affermi les genoux qui pliaient. 5 Et maintenant qu'il s'agit de toi, tu faiblis! Maintenant que tu es atteint, tu te troubles! 6 Ta crainte de Dieu n'est-elle pas ton soutien? Ton espérance, n'est-ce pas ton intégrité? 7 Cherche dans ton souvenir: quel est l'innocent qui a péri? Quels sont les justes qui ont été exterminés? 8 Pour moi, je l'ai vu, ceux qui labourent l'iniquité Et qui sèment l'injustice en moissonnent les fruits; 9 Ils périssent par le souffle de Dieu, Ils sont consumés par le vent de sa colère, 10 Le rugissement des lions prend fin, Les dents des lionceaux sont brisées; 11 Le lion périt faute de proie, Et les petits de la lionne se dispersent. 12 Une parole est arrivée furtivement jusqu'à moi, Et mon oreille en a recueilli les sons légers. 13 Au moment où les visions de la nuit agitent la pensée, Quand les hommes sont livrés à un profond sommeil, 14 Je fus saisi de frayeur et d'épouvante, Et tous mes os tremblèrent. 15 Un esprit passa près de moi.... Tous mes cheveux se hérissèrent.... 16 Une figure d'un aspect inconnu était devant mes yeux, Et j'entendis une voix qui murmurait doucement: 17 L'homme serait-il juste devant Dieu? Serait-il pur devant celui qui l'a fait? 18 Si Dieu n'a pas confiance en ses serviteurs, S'il trouve de la folie chez ses anges, 19 Combien plus chez ceux qui habitent des maisons d'argile, Qui tirent leur origine de la poussière, Et qui peuvent être écrasés comme un vermisseau! 20 Du matin au soir ils sont brisés, Ils périssent pour toujours, et nul n'y prend garde; 21 Le fil de leur vie est coupé, Ils meurent, et ils n'ont pas acquis la sagesse.

SE(i) 1 Y respondió Elifaz el temanita, y dijo: 2 Si probáremos a hablarte, te será molesto; pero ¿quién podrá detener las palabras? 3 He aquí, tú enseñabas a muchos, y las manos flacas corroborabas. 4 Al que vacilaba, enderezaban tus palabras, y las rodillas de los que arrodillaban esforzabas. 5 Mas ahora que a ti te ha venido, te es molesto; y cuando ha llegado hasta ti, te turbas. 6 ¿Es éste tu temor, tu confianza, tu esperanza, y la perfección de tus caminos? 7 Acuérdate ahora, ¿quién haya sido inocente que se perdiese? Y ¿adónde los rectos han sido cortados? 8 Como yo he visto que los que aran iniquidad y siembran injuria, la siegan. 9 Perecen por el aliento de Dios, y por el espíritu de su furor son consumidos. 10 El bramido del león, y la voz del león, y los dientes de los leoncillos son arrancados. 11 El león viejo perece por falta de presa, y los hijos del león son esparcidos. 12 El negocio también me era a mí oculto; mas mi oído ha percibido algo de ello. 13 En imaginaciones de visiones nocturnas, cuando el sueño cae sobre los hombres, 14 me sobrevino un espanto y un temblor, que estremeció todos mis huesos. 15 Y un espíritu que pasó por delante de mí, hizo que se erizara el vello de mi carne. 16 Se paró un fantasma delante de mis ojos, cuyo rostro yo no conocí, y quedo, oí que decía: 17 ¿Por ventura será el hombre más justo que Dios? ¿Será el varón más limpio que el que lo hizo? 18 He aquí que en sus siervos no confía, y en sus ángeles halló locura. 19 Cuánto más en los que habitan en casas de lodo, cuyo fundamento está en el polvo, y que serán quebrantados de la polilla! 20 De la mañana a la tarde son quebrantados, y se pierden para siempre, sin haber quien lo considere. 21 ¿Su hermosura, no se pierde con ellos mismos?

Y ¿en dónde los rectos fueron cortados? 8 Como yo he visto, los que aran iniquidad Y siembran injuria, la siegan. 9 Perecen por el aliento de Dios, Y por el espíritu de su furor son consumidos. 10 El bramido del león, y la voz del león, Y los dientes de los leoncillos son quebrantados. 11 El león viejo perece por falta de presa, Y los hijos del león son esparcidos. 12 El negocio también me era á mí oculto; Mas mi oído ha percibido algo de ello. 13 En imaginaciones de visiones nocturnas, Cuando el sueño cae sobre los hombres, 14 Sobrevínome un espanto y un temblor, Que estremeció todos mis huesos: 15 Y un espíritu pasó por delante de mí, Que hizo se erizara el pelo de mi carne. 16 Paróse un fantasma delante de mis ojos, Cuyo rostro yo no conocí, Y quedo, oí que decía: 17 ¿Si será el hombre más justo que Dios? ¿Si será el varón más limpio que el que lo hizo? 18 He aquí que en sus siervos no confía, Y notó necedad en sus ángeles 19 Cuánto más en los que habitan en casas de lodo, Cuyo fundamento está en el polvo, Y que serán quebrantados de la polilla! 20 De la mañana á la tarde son quebrantados, Y se pierden para siempre, sin haber quien lo considere. 21 ¿Su hermosura, no se pierde con ellos mismos?

Y ¿adónde los rectos han sido cortados? 8 Como yo he visto que los que aran iniquidad y siembran injuria, la siegan. 9 Perecen por el aliento de Dios, y por el espíritu de su furor son consumidos. 10 El bramido del león, y la voz del león, y los dientes de los leoncillos son arrancados. 11 El león viejo perece por falta de presa, y los hijos del león son esparcidos. 12 ¶ El negocio también me era a mí oculto; mas mi oído ha percibido algo de ello. 13 En imaginaciones de visiones nocturnas, cuando el sueño cae sobre los hombres, 14 me sobrevino un espanto y un temblor, que estremeció todos mis huesos. 15 Y un espíritu que pasó por delante de mí, hizo que se erizara el vello de mi carne. 16 Se paró un fantasma delante de mis ojos, cuyo rostro yo no conocí, y quedo, oí que decía: 17 ¿Por ventura será el hombre más justo que Dios? ¿Será el varón más limpio que el que lo hizo? 18 He aquí que en sus siervos no confía, y en sus ángeles halló locura. 19 ¡Cuánto más en los que habitan en casas de lodo, cuyo fundamento está en el polvo, y que serán quebrantados de la polilla! 20 De la mañana a la tarde son quebrantados, y se pierden para siempre, sin haber quien lo considere. 21 ¿Su hermosura, no se pierde con ellos mismos?

Por kush mund t'i ndalë fjalët? 3 Ja ti ke mësuar shumë prej tyre dhe ua ke fortësuar duart e lodhura; 4 fjalët e tua u kanë dhënë zemër të lëkundurve dhe kanë forcuar gjunjët që gjunjëzohen. 5 Por tani që e keqja të zuri ty, nuk je në gjendje të veprosh; të ka goditur ty, dhe ti e ke humbur fare. 6 Mëshira jote a nuk është vallë besimi yt, dhe ndershmëria e sjelljes sate, shpresa jote? 7 Mbaje mend: cili i pafajmë është zhdukur vallë, dhe a janë shkatërruar vallë njerëzit e ndershëm? 8 Ashtu siç e kam parë unë vetë, ata që lërojnë paudhësinë dhe mbjellin mjerimin, vjelin frytet e tyre. 9 Me frymën e Perëndisë ata vdesin, era e zemërimit të tij i tret ata. 10 Vrumbullima e luanit, zëri i luanit të egër dhe dhëmbët e luanëve të vegjël janë thyer. 11 Luani vdes për mungesë gjahu dhe të vegjlit e luaneshës shpërndahen. 12 Një fjalë më ka ardhur fshehurazi dhe veshi im ka zënë pëshpëritjen e saj. 13 Midis mendimeve të vizioneve të natës, kur një gjumë i rëndë bie mbi njerëzit, 14 më pushtoi një llahtari e madhe dhe një rrëqethje që bëri të dridhen gjithë kockat e mia. 15 Një frymë më kaloi përpara, dhe m'u ngritën përpjetë qimet e trupit. 16 Ai u ndal, por nuk munda ta dalloj pamjen e tij; një figurë më rrinte para syve; kishte heshtje, pastaj dëgjova një zë që thoshte: 17 "A mund të jetë një i vdekshëm më i drejtë se Perëndia? A mund të jetë një njeri më i pastër se Krijuesi i tij? 18 Ja, ai nuk u zë besë as shërbëtorëve të tij, dhe gjen madje të meta edhe tek engjëjt e tij; 19 aq më tepër tek ata që banojnë në shtëpi prej argjile, themelet e të cilave janë në pluhur, dhe shtypen si një tenjë. 20 Nga mëngjesi deri në mbrëmje shkatërrohen; zhduken për fare, dhe asnjeri nuk i vë re. 21 Litarin e çadrës së tyre vallë a nuk ua këpusin? Ata vdesin, por pa dituri"".
RST(i) 1 И отвечал Елифаз Феманитянин и сказал: 2 если попытаемся мы сказать к тебе слово, – не тяжело ли будет тебе? Впрочем кто может возбранить слову! 3 Вот, ты наставлял многих и опустившиеся руки поддерживал, 4 падающего восставляли слова твои, и гнущиеся колени ты укреплял. 5 А теперь дошло до тебя, и ты изнемог; коснулось тебя, и ты упал духом. 6 Богобоязненность твоя не должна ли быть твоею надеждою, и непорочность путей твоих – упованием твоим? 7 Вспомни же, погибал ли кто невинный, и где праведные бывали искореняемы? 8 Как я видал, то оравшие нечестие и сеявшие зло пожинают его; 9 от дуновения Божия погибают и от духа гнева Его исчезают. 10 Рев льва и голос рыкающего умолкает , и зубы скимнов сокрушаются; 11 могучий лев погибает без добычи, и дети львицы рассеиваются. 12 И вот, ко мне тайно принеслось слово, и ухо мое приняло нечто от него. 13 Среди размышлений о ночных видениях, когда сон находит на людей, 14 объял меня ужас и трепет и потряс все кости мои. 15 И дух прошел надо мною; дыбом стали волосы на мне. 16 Он стал, – но я не распознал вида его, – только облик был пред глазами моими; тихое веяние, – и я слышу голос: 17 человек праведнее ли Бога? и муж чище ли Творцасвоего? 18 Вот, Он и слугам Своим не доверяет и в Ангелах Своих усматривает недостатки: 19 тем более – в обитающих в храминах из брения, которых основание прах, которые истребляются скорее моли. 20 Между утром и вечером они распадаются; не увидишь, как они вовсе исчезнут. 21 Не погибают ли с ними и достоинства их? Они умирают, не достигнув мудрости.
Arabic(i) 1 فاجاب اليفاز التيماني وقال 2 ان امتحن احد كلمة معك فهل تستاء. ولكن من يستطيع الامتناع عن الكلام. 3 ها انت قد ارشدت كثيرين وشددت ايادي مرتخية. 4 قد اقام كلامك العاثر وثبت الركب المرتعشة. 5 والآن اذ جاء عليك ضجرت. اذ مسّك ارتعت. 6 أليست تقواك هي معتمدك ورجاؤك كمال طرقك. 7 اذكر من هلك وهو بري واين أبيد المستقيمون. 8 كما قد رايت ان الحارثين اثما والزارعين شقاوة يحصدونها. 9 بنسمة الله يبيدون وبريح انفه يفنون. 10 زمجرة الاسد وصوت الزئير وانياب الاشبال تكسرت. 11 الليث هالك لعدم الفريسة واشبال اللبوة تبددت 12 ثم اليّ تسللت كلمة فقبلت اذني منها ركزا. 13 في الهواجس من رؤى الليل عند وقوع سبات على الناس 14 اصابني رعب ورعدة فرجفت كل عظامي. 15 فمرّت روح على وجهي. اقشعر شعر جسدي. 16 وقفت ولكني لم اعرف منظرها. شبه قدام عينيّ. سمعت صوتا منخفضا 17 أالانسان ابرّ من الله ام الرجل اطهر من خالقه. 18 هوذا عبيده لا يأتمنهم والى ملائكته ينسب حماقة. 19 فكم بالحري سكان بيوت من طين الذين اساسهم في التراب ويسحقون مثل العث. 20 بين الصباح والمساء يحطمون. بدون منتبه اليهم الى الابد يبيدون 21 أما انتزعت منهم طنبهم. يموتون بلا حكمة
Bulgarian(i) 1 Тогава теманецът Елифаз отговори и каза: 2 Ако се опитаме да ти кажем нещо, ще ти дотегне ли? Но кой може се сдържи да не говори? 3 Ето, ти си наставил мнозина и отслабнали ръце си укрепил. 4 Думите ти са изправили препъващия се и уморени колене си укрепил. 5 А сега това те връхлетя и ти дотяга; докосва се до теб и се смущаваш. 6 Не е ли твоят страх от Бога упованието ти и непорочността на пътищата ти — надеждата ти? 7 Спомни си сега — кой някога невинен е погинал и праведни къде изтребени били са? 8 Според както аз видял съм, които измама орат и страдание сеят, това и после жънат. 9 От Божия дъх те погиват и от полъха на ноздрите Му се довършват. 10 Реването на лъва и на ревящия гласът замлъкват и зъбите на лъвчетата се строшават. 11 Лъвът загива от липса на плячка и малките на лъвицата се разпръсват. 12 А до мен достигна скришно дума и ухото ми от нея шепот долови. 13 Сред мислите от нощните видения, когато дълбок сън хората напада, 14 ужас ме обзе и потреперих, и всичките ми кости се разтресоха. 15 Тогава дух премина пред лицето ми и космите на тялото ми се изправиха. 16 Застана — но аз изгледа му не познах — като образ пред очите ми, мълчание, и чувам глас: 17 Може ли смъртен човек да е по-праведен от Бога? Може ли човек да е по-чист от Създателя си? 18 Той на слугите Си не се доверява и ангелите Си в заблуда обвинява, 19 а колко повече онези, които живеят в къщи от кал, чиято основа е в пръстта, и които се смазват по-бързо от молеца! 20 От сутринта до вечерта се съсипват, без някой да забележи, погиват завинаги. 21 Щом се дръпнат въжетата на шатрите им, те умират; и то умират без мъдрост.
Croatian(i) 1 Tad prozbori Elifaz Temanac i reče: 2 "Možeš li podnijeti da ti progovorim? Ali tko se može uzdržat' od riječi! 3 Eto, mnoge ljude ti si poučio, okrijepio si iznemogle mišice; 4 riječju svojom klonule si pridizao, ojačavao si koljena klecava. 5 A kad tebe stiže, klonuo si duhom, na tebe kad pade, čitav si se smeo! 6 Zar pobožnost tvoja nadu ti ne daje, neporočnost tvoja životu ufanje? 7 TÓa sjeti se: nevin - propade li kada? Kada su zatrti bili pravednici? 8 Iz iskustva zborim: nesrećom tko ore i nevolju sije, nju će i požeti. 9 Od daha Božjega oni pogibaju, na gnjevni mu disaj nestaju sa zemlje. 10 Rika lavlja, urlik leopardov krše se k'o zubi u lavića. 11 Lav ugiba jer mu nesta plijena, rasuli se mladi lavičini. 12 Tajna riječ se meni objavila, šapat njen je uho moje čulo. 13 Noću, kada snovi duh obuzmu i san dubok kad na ljude pada, 14 strah i trepet mene su svladali, kosti moje žestoko se stresle. 15 Dah mi neki preko lica prođe, digoše se dlake na mom tijelu. 16 Stajao je netko - lica mu ne poznah - ali likom bješe pred očima mojim. Posvuda tišina; uto začuh šapat: 17 'Zar je smrtnik koji pred Bogom pravedan? Zar je čovjek čist pred svojim Stvoriteljem? 18 Ni slugama svojim više ne vjeruje, i anđele svoje za grijeh okrivljuje - 19 kako ne bi onda goste stanova glinenih kojima je temelj u prahu zemaljskom. Gle, kao moljce njih sveudilj satiru: 20 od jutra do mraka u prah pretvore, nestaju zasvagda - nitko i ne vidi. 21 Iščupan je kolčić njihova šatora, pogibaju skoro, mudrost ne spoznavši.'
BKR(i) 1 Jemuž odpovídaje Elifaz Temanský, řekl: 2 Počneme-li mluviti s tebou, neponeseš-liž toho těžce? Ale kdož by se zdržeti mohl, aby neměl mluviti? 3 Aj, učívals mnohé, a rukou opuštěných jsi posiloval. 4 Padajícího pozdvihovals řečmi svými, a kolena zemdlená jsi zmocňoval. 5 Nyní pak, jakž toto přišlo na tebe, těžce to neseš, a jakž tě dotklo, předěšen jsi. 6 Nebylo-liž náboženství tvé nadějí tvou, a upřímost cest tvých očekáváním tvým? 7 Rozpomeň se, prosím, kdo jest kdy nevinný zahynul? Aneb kde upřímí vyhlazeni jsou? 8 Jakož jsem já vídal ty, kteříž orali nepravost, a rozsívali převrácenost, že ji i žali. 9 Od dchnutí Božího hynou, a duchem prchlivosti jeho v nic obracíni bývají. 10 Řvání lva a hlas lvice a zubové mladých lvíčat setříni bývají. 11 Hyne lev, že nemá loupeže, a lvíčata mladá rozptýlena bývají. 12 Nebo i tajně doneslo se mne slovo, a pochopilo ucho mé něco maličko toho. 13 V přemyšlováních z vidění nočních, když připadá tvrdý sen na lidi, 14 Strach připadl na mne a lekání, kteréž předěsilo všecky kosti mé. 15 Duch zajisté před tváří mou šel, tak že vlasové vstávali na těle mém. 16 Zastavil se, ale neznal jsem tváři jeho; tvárnost jen byla před očima mýma. Mezi tím mlče, slyšel jsem hlas: 17 Zdaliž může člověk spravedlivějším býti než Bůh, aneb muž čistším nad toho, kterýž ho učinil? 18 Ano mezi služebníky jeho není dokonalosti, a při andělích svých zanechal nedostatku. 19 Čím více při těch, kteříž bydlejí v domích hliněných, jejichž základ jest na prachu, a setříni bývají snáze než mol. 20 Od jitra až do večera stíráni bývají, a kdož toho nerozvažují, na věky zahynou. 21 Zdaliž nepomíjí sláva jejich s nimi? Umírají, ale ne v moudrosti.
Danish(i) 1 Da svarede Elifas, Themaniten, og sagde: 2 Om man vilde forsøge et Ord paa dig, skulde du vel kedes derved men hvo kan holde sig fra at tale? 3 Se, du har undervist mange og styrket de trætte Hænder; 4 dine Ord have oprejst den faldne, Og du har styrket de bøjede Knæ: 5 men nu det kommer til dig, da kedes du derved; det rammer dig, Og du forfærdes! 6 Var ikke din Gudsfrygt dit Haab og dine Vejes Renhed din Fortrøstning? 7 Kære, tænk dig om, hvor er en uskyldig gaaet til Grunde eller hvor ere de oprigtige udslettede? 8 Saa vidt jeg har set, komme de, som pløje Uret, og de, som udsaa Møje, til at høste ind derefter: 9 De omkomme for Guds Aande og fortæres af hans Vredes Aand. 10 Løvens Brøl og den grumme Løves Røst høre op, og de unge Løvers Tænder ere knuste; 11 Løven omkommer af lvlangel paa Rov, og Løvindens Unger adspredes. 12 Men mig, er et Ord tilbragt hemmeligt, og mit Øre fattede en sagte Lyd deraf 13 i Tanker, fremkaldte ved Syner om Natten, naar dyb Søvn falder paa Folk; 14 da kom Frygt og Bævelse paa mig og bragte mine Ben til at skælve; 15 og en Aand gik frem for mit Ansigt; Haarene rejste sig paa mit Legeme; 16 den blev staaende, og jeg kunde ikke kende dens Skikkelse; der svævede et Billede for mine Øjne; det var stille, og jeg hørte en Røst: 17 Mon et Menneske kan holdes retfærdigt for Gud monne en Mand være ren for den, som skabte ham? 18 Se, han tror ikke paa sine Tjenere, og sine Engle tillægger han Daarskab, 19 endsige da dem, som bo i Lerhuse, og hvis Grundvold er i Støvet; man kan støde dem smaa før Møl; 20 fra Morgen og indtil Aften sønderknuses de; uden at der er nogen, som lægger det paa Hjerte, gaa de til Grunde. 21 Farer ikke deres Herlighed, som var i dem bort? ja, de dø, men ikke i Visdom.

Esperanto(i) 1 Kaj ekparolis Elifaz, la Temanano, kaj diris: 2 Se oni provos diri al vi vorton, tio eble estos por vi turmenta? Sed kiu povas deteni sin de parolado? 3 Jen vi multajn instruis, Kaj manojn senfortigxintajn vi refortigis; 4 Falantojn restarigis viaj vortoj, Kaj fleksigxantajn genuojn vi fortigis; 5 Kaj nun, kiam tio trafis vin, vi perdis la forton; GXi ektusxis vin, kaj vi ektimis. 6 CXu ne via timo antaux Dio estas via konsolo? CXu la virteco de viaj vojoj ne estas via espero? 7 Rememoru do, cxu pereis iu senkulpa? Kaj kie virtuloj estis ekstermitaj? 8 Kiel mi vidis, tiuj, kiuj plugis pekojn kaj semis malbonagojn, Tiuj ilin rikoltas; 9 De la ekblovo de Dio ili pereas, Kaj de la ekspiro de Lia kolero ili malaperas. 10 La kriado de leono kaj la vocxo de leopardo silentigxis, Kaj la dentoj de junaj leonoj rompigxis; 11 Leono pereis pro manko de mangxajxo, Kaj idoj de leonino diskuris. 12 Kaj al mi kasxe alvenis vorto, Kaj mia orelo kaptis parteton de gxi. 13 Dum meditado pri la vizioj de la nokto, Kiam profunda dormo falas sur la homojn, 14 Atakis min teruro kaj tremo, Kaj cxiuj miaj ostoj eksentis timon. 15 Kaj spirito traflugis antaux mi, Kaj la haroj sur mia korpo rigidigxis. 16 Staris bildo antaux miaj okuloj, sed mi ne povis rekoni gxian aspekton; Estis silento, kaj mi ekauxdis vocxon, dirantan: 17 CXu homo estas pli justa ol Dio? CXu viro estas pli pura ol lia Kreinto? 18 Vidu, al Siaj servantoj Li ne konfidas, Kaj Siajn angxelojn Li trovas mallauxdindaj: 19 Des pli koncerne tiujn, Kiuj logxas en argilaj dometoj, Fonditaj sur tero, Kaj kiujn formangxas vermoj. 20 De la mateno gxis la vespero ili disfalas, Pereas por cxiam, kaj neniu tion atentas. 21 La fadeno de ilia vivo estas distrancxita; Ili mortas, kaj ne en sagxeco.
Finnish(i) 1 Ja Eliphas Temanilainen vastasi ja sanoi, 2 Jos joku sinun kanssas rupeis puhumaan: mitämaks et sinä sitä kärsi; mutta kuka taitaa vaiti olla? 3 Katso, sinä olet monta neuvonut, ja vahvistanut väsyneitä käsiä. 4 Sinun puhees on ojentanut langenneita, ja vapisevaisia polvia vahvistanut. 5 Mutta että se nyt tulee sinun päälles, niin sinä väsyit, ja että se lankesi sinun päälles, niin sinä peljästyit. 6 Tämäkö on sinun (Jumalan) pelkos, sinun uskallukses, sinun toivos ja sinun vakuutes? 7 Muistele nyt, kussa joku viatoin on hukkunut? eli kussa hurskaat ovat joskus hävinneet? 8 Niinkuin minä kyllä nähnyt olen, ne jotka kyntävät vääryyden, ja onnettomuuden kylvävät, sitä he myös niittävät. 9 He ovat Jumalan puhalluksen kautta kadonneet, ja hänen vihansa hengeltä hukatut. 10 Jalopeuran kiljumus, ja julma jalopeuran ääni, ja nuorten jalopeurain hampaat ovat lovistetut. 11 Vanha jalopeura hukkuu, ettei hänellä ole saalista; ja jalopeuran pojat hajoitetaan. 12 Ja minun tyköni on tullut salainen sana; ja minun korvani on saanut vähäisen siitä. 13 Kuin minä ajattelin yönäkyjä, kuin uni lankee ihmisten päälle, 14 Niin pelko ja vavistus tuli minun päälleni, ja kaikki minun luuni peljätettiin; 15 Ja henki meni minun sivuitseni; kaikki minun karvani nousivat ruumiissani. 16 Silloin seisoi kuva minun silmäini edessä, jonka kasvoja en minä tuntenut; ja minä kuulin hiljaisen hyminän äänen: 17 Kuinka on ihminen hurskaampi kuin JumaIa? eli joku mies puhtaampi kuin se, joka hänen tehnyt on? 18 Katso, palveliainsa seassa ei löydä hän uskollisuutta ja enkeleissänsä löytää hän tyhmyyden: 19 Kuinka enemmin niissä jotka asuvat savihuoneissa, niissä jotka ovat perustetut maan päälle, jotka toukkain tavalla murentuvat? 20 Se pysyy aamusta ehtoosen asti, niin he muserretaan; ja ennenkuin he sen havaitsevat, he ijankaikkisesti hukkuvat. 21 Eikö heidän jälkeenjääneensä pois oteta? he kuolevat, vaan ei viisaudessa.
FinnishPR(i) 1 Silloin teemanilainen Elifas lausui ja sanoi: 2 "Ethän pane pahaksesi, jos sinulle puhutaan? Kuka voi vaitikaan olla? 3 Katso, monta sinä olet ojentanut, ja hervonneita käsiä olet vahvistanut; 4 sanasi ovat nostaneet kompastunutta, ja rauenneita polvia olet voimistanut. 5 Mutta nyt, kun itseäsi kova kohtaa, sinä tuskastut, kun se sinuun sattuu, sinä kauhistut. 6 Eikö jumalanpelkosi ole sinun uskalluksesi ja nuhteeton vaelluksesi sinun toivosi? 7 Ajattele, kuka viaton on koskaan hukkunut, ja missä ovat rehelliset joutuneet perikatoon? 8 Minkä minä olen nähnyt, niin ne, jotka vääryyttä kyntävät ja turmiota kylvävät, ne sitä niittävätkin. 9 Jumalan henkäyksestä he hukkuvat, hänen vihansa hengestä he häviävät. 10 Leijonan ärjyntä, jalopeuran ääni vaiennetaan, ja nuorten leijonain hampaat murskataan; 11 jalopeura menehtyy saaliin puutteesta, ja naarasleijonan pennut hajaantuvat. 12 Ja minulle tuli salaa sana, korvani kuuli kuiskauksen, 13 kun ajatukset liikkuivat öisissä näyissä, kun raskas uni oli vallannut ihmiset. 14 Pelko ja vavistus yllättivät minut, peljästyttivät kaikki minun luuni. 15 Tuulen henkäys hiveli kasvojani, ihoni karvat nousivat pystyyn. 16 Siinä seisoi-sen näköä en erottanut-haamu minun silmäini edessä; minä kuulin kuiskaavan äänen: 17 'Onko ihminen vanhurskas Jumalan edessä, onko mies Luojansa edessä puhdas? 18 Katso, palvelijoihinsakaan hän ei luota, enkeleissäänkin hän havaitsee vikoja; 19 saati niissä, jotka savimajoissa asuvat, joiden perustus on maan tomussa! He rusentuvat kuin koiperhonen; 20 ennenkuin aamu ehtooksi muuttuu, heidät muserretaan. Kenenkään huomaamatta he hukkuvat ainiaaksi. 21 Eikö niin: heidän telttanuoransa irroitetaan, ja he kuolevat, viisaudesta osattomina.'"
Haitian(i) 1 Elifaz, moun Teman an, pran lapawòl, li di konsa: 2 -Jòb, si m' pale avè ou, ou p'ap fache, vye frè? Mwen pa ka pa pale. 3 Yon lè, se ou ki te konn moutre moun anpil bagay, se ou ki te konn bay moun fòs lè yo fèb. 4 Pawòl nan bouch ou te yon ankourajman pou moun ki te dekouraje. Ou te ede yo kanpe sou de pye yo ankò. 5 Koulye a, paske se tou pa ou, ou pèdi tèt ou. Malè tonbe sou ou, w'ap depale. 6 W'ap sèvi Bondye, ou fèt pou genyen l' konfyans. Ou mennen bak ou byen, ou pa fèt pou dekouraje. 7 Repase tèt ou byen. Ou janm konnen yon inonsan ki mouri mal? Ou janm wè yo touye yon moun ki mache dwat? 8 M'ap di sa m' wè ak je m': Moun ki kouve mechanste nan kè yo epi k'ap mache bay moun lapenn, se mechanste ak lapenn yo rekòlte. 9 Lè Bondye fache, li soufle sou yo, yo mouri. Lè van tanpèt Bondye a leve, yo disparèt. 10 Mechan yo rele kou lyon, yo gwonde kou bèt sovaj. Men, Bondye fèmen bouch yo, li kase dan nan bouch yo. 11 Yo mouri tankou lyon ki pa jwenn bèt pou yo manje. Tout pitit yo gaye nan bwa. 12 Yon lè, mwen tande Bondye t'ap pale tou dousman nan zòrèy mwen. Mwen pa t' fin tande nèt sa li t'ap di. 13 Tankou yon move rèv nan mitan lannwit, li mete yon bann vye lide nan tèt mwen. M' pa ka dòmi tèlman mwen pè. 14 Mwen pran tranble, mwen santi yon frison mache nan tout kò m'. Tout zo nan kò m' ap krake. 15 Yon souf pase bò figi m', tout cheve nan tèt mwen kanpe. 16 Mwen rete konsa mwen wè yon moun kanpe devan m'. Mwen pa t' rekonèt ki moun li ye. Men, fòm moun lan te la devan je m'. Mwen pa tande yon ti bri menm. Apre sa, mwen tande yon vwa ki t'ap pale tou dousman, li t'ap di: 17 Ki moun ki ka di li mache dwat devan Bondye? Ki moun ki san repwòch devan Bondye ki kreye l' la? 18 Bondye pa janm fin fye sèvitè l' yo nèt. Ata zanj li yo, li jwenn bagay pou l' repwoche yo. 19 Ale wè atò pou moun ki fèt ak labou, pou moun ki soti nan pousyè tè, pou moun yo kapab kraze tankou poudbwa! 20 Yon sèl jou kont pou yo tounen pousyè, yo disparèt nèt. Pesonn pa wè sa. 21 Yo rete konsa yo kase kòd. Yo mouri san yo pa janm rive fin gen bon konprann.
Hungarian(i) 1 És felele a témáni Elifáz, és monda: 2 Ha szólni próbálunk hozzád, zokon veszed-é? De hát ki bírná türtõztetni magát a beszédben? 3 Ímé sokakat oktattál, és a megfáradott kezeket megerõsítetted; 4 A tántorgót a te beszédeid fentartották, és a reszketõ térdeket megerõsítetted; 5 Most, hogy rád jött [a sor], zokon veszed; hogy téged ért [a baj,] elrettensz! 6 Nem bizodalmad-é a te istenfélelmed, s nem reménységed- é utaidnak becsületessége? 7 Emlékezzél, kérlek, ki az, a ki elveszett ártatlanul, és hol töröltettek el az igazak? 8 A mint én láttam, a kik hamisságot szántanak és gonoszságot vetnek, ugyanazt aratnak. 9 Az Istennek lehelletétõl elvesznek, az õ haragjának szelétõl elpusztulnak. 10 Az oroszlán ordítása, a sakál üvöltése, és az oroszlán-kölykök fogai megsemmisülnek. 11 Az agg oroszlán elvész, ha nincs martaléka, a nõstény oroszlán kölykei elszélednek. 12 Szó lopódzék hozzám, s valami nesz üté meg abból fülemet. 13 Éjjeli látásokon való töprengések között, mikor mély álom fogja el az embereket. 14 Félelem szálla rám, és rettegés, s megreszketteté minden csontomat. 15 Valami szellem suhant el elõttem, s testemnek szõre felborzolódék. 16 Megálla, de ábrázatját föl nem ismerém, egy alak vala szemeim elõtt, mély csend, és [ilyen] szót hallék: 17 Vajjon a halandó igaz-é Istennél: az õ teremtõje elõtt tiszta-é az ember? 18 Ímé az õ szolgáiban sem bízhatik és az õ angyalaiban is talál hibát: 19 Mennyivel inkább a sárházak lakosaiban, a kiknek fundamentumok a porban van, és könnyebben szétnyomhatók a molynál?! 20 Reggeltõl estig gyötrõdnek, s a nélkül, hogy észrevennék, elvesznek örökre. 21 Ha kiszakíttatik belõlök sátoruk kötele, nem halnak-é meg, és pedig bölcsesség nélkül?
Indonesian(i) 1 Lalu berbicaralah Elifas, katanya: "Ayub, kesalkah engkau bila aku bicara? Tak sanggup aku berdiam diri lebih lama. 2 (4:1) 3 Banyak orang telah kauberi pelajaran, dan mereka yang lemah telah kaukuatkan. 4 Kata-katamu yang memberi semangat, membangunkan orang yang tersandung, lemas dan penat. 5 Tetapi kini engkau sendiri ditimpa duka; kau terkejut, dan menjadi putus asa. 6 Bukankah engkau setia kepada Allah; bukankah hidupmu tiada cela? Jika begitu, sepantasnyalah engkau yakin dan tak putus asa. 7 Pikirlah, pernahkah orang yang tak bersalah ditimpa celaka dan musibah? 8 Aku tahu dari pengamatan bahwa orang yang membajak ladang kejahatan, dan menabur benih bencana bagai biji tanaman, akan menuai celaka dan kesusahan! 9 Bagai badai, begitulah murka Allah membinasakan mereka hingga punah! 10 Orang jahat mengaum dan meraung, bagaikan singa mereka menggerung. Tetapi Allah membungkam mereka serta mematahkan gigi-giginya. 11 Mereka mati seperti singa kekurangan makanan, sehingga anak-anaknya bercerai-berai tak keruan. 12 Pernah suatu wahyu sampai kepadaku, bagaikan bisikan halus dalam telingaku. 13 Tidurku terganggu dan terusik olehnya, seperti mendapat mimpi yang buruk di malam buta. 14 Aku pun terkejut dan menggigil gentar; seluruh tubuhku bergundang, gemetar. 15 Angin sepoi menyentuh wajahku, maka tegaklah bulu romaku. 16 Suatu sosok berdiri di hadapanku; kutatap, tetapi ia asing bagiku. Lalu kudengar bunyi suara memecah heningnya suasana, 17 'Mungkinkah manusia tanpa salah di hadapan Allah? Mungkinkah ia tidak bercela di mata Penciptanya? 18 Bahkan hamba-hamba Allah di surga, tak dapat dipercayai oleh-Nya. Bahkan pada malaikat-malaikat-Nya didapati-Nya kesalahan dan cela. 19 Apalagi makhluk dari tanah liat makhluk debu yang dapat dipencet seperti ngengat! 20 Makhluk itu hidup di waktu pagi, lalu mati terlantar di senja hari, dan untuk selamanya ia tak diingat lagi. 21 Maka hilanglah segala yang dimiliki; ia pun mati tanpa beroleh akal budi.'
Italian(i) 1 ED Elifaz Temanita rispose, e disse: 2 Se noi imprendiamo a parlarti, ti sarà egli molesto? Ma pur chi potrebbe rattener le parole? 3 Ecco, tu correggevi molti, E rinforzavi le mani rimesse. 4 I tuoi ragionamenti ridirizzavano quelli che vacillavano, E tu raffermavi le ginocchia che piegavano. 5 Ma ora che il male ti è avvenuto, tu te ne affanni; Ora ch’è giunto fino a te, tu ne sei smarrito. 6 La tua pietà non è ella stata la tua speranza, E l’integrità delle tue vie la tua aspettazione? 7 Deh! rammemorati, quale innocente perì mai, Ed ove furono gli uomini diritti mai distrutti? 8 Siccome io ho veduto che quelli che arano l’iniquità, E seminano la perversità, la mietono. 9 Essi periscono per l’alito di Dio, E son consumati dal soffiar delle sue nari. 10 Il ruggito del leone, e il grido del fier leone son ribattuti; E i denti de’ leoncelli sono stritolati. 11 Il vecchio leone perisce per mancamento di preda, E i figli della leonessa son dissipati. 12 Or mi è stata di nascosto significata una parola, E l’orecchio mio ne ha ritenuto un poco. 13 Fra le immaginazioni delle visioni notturne, Quando il più profondo sonno cade sopra gli uomini, 14 Mi è venuto uno spavento ed un tremito, Che ha spaventate tutte quante le mie ossa. 15 Ed uno spirito è passato davanti a me, Che mi ha fatto arricciare i peli della mia carne; 16 Egli si è fermato, ed io non ho riconosciuto il suo aspetto; Una sembianza è stata davanti agli occhi miei, Ed io ho udita una voce sommessa che diceva: 17 L’uomo sarebbe egli giustificato da Dio? L’uomo sarebbe egli giudicato puro dal suo fattore? 18 Ecco, egli non si fida ne’ suoi servitori, E scorge della temerità ne’ suoi Angeli. 19 Quanto più in coloro che abitano in case di fango, Il cui fondamento è nella polvere, E che son ridotti in polvere, esposti a’ vermi? 20 Dalla mattina alla sera sono stritolati, E periscono in perpetuo, senza che alcuno vi ponga mente. 21 L’eccellenza ch’era in loro non si diparte ella? Muoiono, ma non con sapienza.
ItalianRiveduta(i) 1 Allora Elifaz di Teman rispose disse: 2 "Se provassimo a dirti una parola ti darebbe fastidio? Ma chi potrebbe trattener le parole? 3 Ecco tu n’hai ammaestrati molti, hai fortificato le mani stanche; 4 le tue parole hanno rialzato chi stava cadendo, hai raffermato le ginocchia vacillanti; 5 e ora che il male piomba su te, tu ti lasci abbattere; ora ch’è giunto fino a te, sei tutto smarrito. 6 La tua pietà non è forse la tua fiducia, e l’integrità della tua vita la speranza tua? 7 Ricorda: quale innocente perì mai? e dove furono gli uomini retti mai distrutti? 8 Io per me ho visto che coloro che arano iniquità e seminano tormenti, ne mietono i frutti. 9 Al soffio di Dio essi periscono, dal vento del suo corruccio son consumati. 10 Spenta è la voce del ruggente, sono spezzati i denti dei leoncelli. 11 Perisce per mancanza di preda il forte leone, e restan dispersi i piccini della leonessa. 12 Una parola m’è furtivamente giunta, e il mio orecchio ne ha còlto il lieve sussurro. 13 Fra i pensieri delle visioni notturne, quando un sonno profondo cade sui mortali, 14 uno spavento mi prese, un tremore che mi fece fremer tutte l’ossa. 15 Uno spirito mi passò dinanzi, e i peli mi si rizzarono addosso. 16 Si fermò, ma non riconobbi il suo sembiante; una figura mi stava davanti agli occhi e udii una voce sommessa che diceva: 17 "Può il mortale esser giusto dinanzi a Dio? Può l’uomo esser puro dinanzi al suo Fattore? 18 Ecco, Iddio non si fida de’ suoi propri servi, e trova difetti nei suoi angeli; 19 quanto più in quelli che stanno in case d’argilla, che han per fondamento la polvere e son schiacciati al par delle tignuole! 20 Tra la mattina e la sera sono infranti; periscono per sempre, senza che alcuno se ne accorga. 21 La corda della lor tenda, ecco, è strappata, e muoion senza posseder la sapienza".
Korean(i) 1 데만 사람 엘리바스가 대답하여 가로되 2 누가 네게 말하면 네가 염증이 나겠느냐 ? 날지라도 누가 참고 말하지 아니하겠느냐 ? 3 전에 네가 여러 사람을 교훈하였고 손이 늘어진 자면 강하게 하였고 4 넘어져 가는 자를 말로 붙들어 주었고 무릎이 약한 자를 강하게 하였거늘 5 이제 이 일이 네게 임하매 네가 답답하여 하고 이 일이 네게 당하매 네가 놀라는구나 6 네 의뢰가 경외함에 있지 아니하냐 ? 네 소망이 네 행위를 완전히 함에 있지 아니하냐 ? 7 생각하여 보라 ! 죄없이 망한 자가 누구인가 정직한 자의 끊어짐이 어디 있는가 8 내가 보건대 악을 밭갈고 독을 뿌리는 자는 그대로 거두나니 9 다 하나님의 입기운에 멸망하고 그 콧김에 사라지느니라 10 사자의 우는 소리와 사나운 사자의 목소리가 그치고 젊은 사자의 이가 부러지며 11 늙은 사자는 움킨 것이 없어 죽고 암사자의 새끼는 흩어지느니라 12 무슨 말씀이 내게 가만히 임하고 그 가는 소리가 내 귀에 들렸었나니 13 곧 사람이 깊이 잠들 때쯤 하여서니라 내가 그 밤의 이상으로 하여 생각이 번거로울 때에 14 두려움과 떨림이 내게 이르러서 모든 골절이 흔들렸었느니라 15 그 때에 영이 내 앞으로 지나매 내 몸에 털이 주뼛하였었느니라 16 그 영이 서는데 그 형상을 분변치는 못하여도 오직 한 형상이 내 눈 앞에 있었느니라 그 때 내가 종용한 중에 목소리를 들으니 이르기를 17 인생이 어찌 하나님보다 의롭겠느냐 ? 사람이 어찌 그 창조하신 이보다 성결하겠느냐 ? 18 하나님은 그 종이라도 오히려 믿지 아니하시며 그 사자라도 미련하다 하시나니 19 하물며 흙 집에 살며 티끌로 터를 삼고 하루살이에게라도 눌려 죽을 자이겠느냐 ? 20 조석 사이에 멸한 바 되며 영원히 망하되 생각하는 자가 없으리라 21 장막 줄을 그들에게서 뽑지 아니하겠느냐 ? 그들이 죽나니 지혜가 있느니라
Lithuanian(i) 1 Temanas Elifazas atsakydamas tarė: 2 “Jei kalbėsime tau, gal tau ir nepatiks, tačiau kas gali susilaikyti nekalbėjęs? 3 Tu daugelį pamokei ir sustiprinai jų pailsusias rankas. 4 Klumpantį tavo žodžiai palaikė, linkstančius jo kelius tu sutvirtinai. 5 Dabar tai užgriuvo tave, ir tu nusilpai; tai palietė tave, ir tu sunerimęs. 6 Ar tai tavo baimė, pasitikėjimas, viltis ir tiesumas tavo kelių? 7 Pagalvok, kas, būdamas nekaltas, pražuvo? Ar teisusis buvo sunaikintas? 8 Kiek esu matęs, kas aparė blogį ir pasėjo piktadarystes, tai ir nupjovė. 9 Nuo Dievo pūstelėjimo jie žuvo; Jo rūstybės kvapas juos sunaikino. 10 Liūto riaumojimas ir piktos liūtės balsas nutildomi, jaunų liūtų dantys išdaužomi. 11 Senas liūtas žūva, neradęs grobio, ir liūtės jaunikliai išsisklaido. 12 Paslaptis mane aplankė ir mano ausis ją nugirdo. 13 Mąstant apie nakties regėjimus, kai gilus miegas buvo apėmęs žmones, 14 mane apėmė išgąstis ir drebėjimas, ir visi mano kaulai tirtėjo. 15 Dvasia praėjo pro mano veidą, ir mano plaukai pasišiaušė. 16 Ji stovėjo, tačiau jos neatpažinau. Pavidalas buvo prieš mano akis; buvo tylu, ir aš išgirdau balsą: 17 ‘Ar mirtingas žmogus gali būti teisesnis už Dievą? Ar jis gali būti tyresnis už savo Kūrėją? 18 Savo tarnais Jis nepasitiki ir mato angelų klaidas. 19 Juo labiau tie, kurie gyvena molio namuose, kurių pamatai­dulkės. Jie sunyks kandžių suėsti. 20 Jie naikinami nuo ryto iki vakaro ir pražūna niekieno nepastebimi. 21 Argi jų didybė nepranyksta? Jie miršta tiesos nesuvokdami’ ”.
PBG(i) 1 Tedy odpowiedział Elifas Temańczyk, i rzekł: 2 Jeźli będziemy mówili z tobą, nie będzie ci to przykro? Ale któż się może od mówienia zatrzymać? 3 Otoś ich wiele uczył, i ręceś mdłe potwierdzał. 4 Upadającego wspierały mowy twoje, a kolana zemdlone posilałeś. 5 A teraz, gdy to na cię przyszło, niecierpliwie znosisz, a iż cię dotknęło, trwożysz sobą. 6 Azaż pobożność twoja nie była ufnością twoją, a uprzejmość spraw twoich oczekiwaniem twojem? 7 Wspomnij proszę, kto kiedy niewinny zginął? albo gdzieby ludzie szczerzy zniszczeli? 8 Jakom widał, że ci, którzy orali złość, i rozsiewali przewrotność, toż też zasię żęli. 9 Bo tchnieniem Bożem giną, a od ducha gniewu jego niszczeją. 10 Ryk lwi, i głos lwicy, i zęby lwiąt wytrącają. 11 Lew ginie, iż nie ma łupu, i szczenięta lwie rozproszone bywają. 12 Nadto doszło mię słowo potajemnie, i pojęło ucho moje cokolwiek z niego. 13 W rozmyślaniu widzenia nocnego, gdy przypada twardy sen na ludzi, 14 Zdjął mię strach i lękanie, które wszystkie kości moje przestraszyło. 15 A duch szedł przed twarzą moją, tak, iż włosy wstały na ciele mojem. 16 Stanął, a nie znałem twarzy jego, kształt tylko jakiś był przed oczyma memi; uciszyłem się, i słyszałem głos mówiący: 17 Izali człowiek może być sprawiedliwszy niżeli Bóg; albo mąż czystszy niż Stworzyciel jego? 18 Oto w sługach jego niemasz doskonałości, a w Aniołach swoich znalazł niedostatek; 19 Daleko więcej w tych, co mieszkają w domach glinianych, których grunt jest na prochu, i starci bywają snadniej niżeli mól. 20 Od poranku aż do wieczora bywają starci; a iż tego nie uważają, na wieki zginą. 21 Azaż zacność ich nie pomija z nimi? umierają, ale nie w mądrości.
Portuguese(i) 1 Então respondeu Elifaz, o temanita, e disse: 2 Se alguém intentar falar-te, enfadarte-ás? Mas quem poderá conter as palavras? 3 Eis que tens ensinado a muitos, e tens fortalecido as mãos fracas. 4 As tuas palavras têm sustentado aos que cambaleavam, e os joelhos desfalecentes tens fortalecido. 5 Mas agora que se trata de ti, te enfadas; e, tocando-te a ti, te desanimas. 6 Porventura não está a tua confiança no teu temor de Deus, e a tua esperança na integridade dos teus caminhos? 7 Lembra-te agora disto: qual o inocente que jamais pereceu? E onde foram os rectos destruídos? 8 Conforme tenho visto, os que lavram iniquidade e semeiam o mal segam o mesmo. 9 Pelo sopro de Deus perecem, e pela rajada da sua ira são consumidos. 10 Cessa o rugido do leão, e a voz do leão feroz; os dentes dos leõezinhos se quebram. 11 Perece o leão velho por falta de presa, e os filhotes da leoa andam dispersos. 12 Ora, uma palavra se me disse em segredo, e os meus ouvidos perceberam um sussurro dela. 13 Entre pensamentos nascidos de visões nocturnas, quando cai sobre os homens o sono profundo, 14 sobrevieram-me o espanto e o tremor, que fizeram estremecer todos os meus ossos. 15 Então um espírito passou por diante de mim; arrepiaram-se os cabelos do meu corpo. 16 Parou ele, mas não pude discernir a sua aparência; um vulto estava diante dos meus olhos; houve silêncio, então ouvi uma voz que dizia: 17 Pode o homem mortal ser justo diante de Deus? Pode o varão ser puro diante do seu Criador? 18 Eis que Deus não confia nos seus servos, e até a seus anjos atribui loucura; 19 quanto mais aos que habitam em casas de lodo, cujo fundamento está no pó, e que são esmagados pela traça! 20 Entre a manhã e a tarde são destruídos; perecem para sempre sem que disso se faça caso. 21 Se dentro deles é arrancada a corda da sua tenda, porventura não morrem, e isso sem atingir a sabedoria?
Norwegian(i) 1 Da tok Elifas fra Teman til orde og sa: 2 Om en prøvde å tale et ord til dig, vilde du da ta det ille op? Men hvem kan vel holde sine ord tilbake? 3 Du har selv vist mange til rette, og maktløse hender styrket du; 4 dine ord reiste den snublende op, og synkende knær gjorde du sterke. 5 Men nu, når det gjelder dig selv, blir du utålmodig, når det rammer dig, blir du forferdet. 6 Er ikke din gudsfrykt din tillit, din ulastelige ferd ditt håp? 7 Tenk efter: Hvem omkom uskyldig, og hvor gikk rettskafne til grunne? 8 Efter det jeg har sett, har de som pløide urett og sådde nød, også høstet det. 9 De omkom for Guds ånde, og for hans vredes pust blev de til intet. 10 Løvens brøl og dens fryktelige røst hørtes ikke lenger, og ungløvenes tenner blev knust. 11 Løven omkom av mangel på rov, og løvinnens unger blev adspredt. 12 Og til mig stjal sig et ord; det lød for mitt øre som en hvisken, 13 under skiftende tanker ved nattlige syner, når dyp søvn faller på menneskene. 14 Frykt og beven kom over mig, så alle mine ben tok til å skjelve. 15 Og en ånd fór forbi mitt åsyn; hårene på mitt legeme reiste sig. 16 Den blev stående, men jeg skjelnet ikke klart hvorledes den så ut - det var en skikkelse som stod der for mine øine; jeg hørte en stille susen og en røst: 17 Er et menneske rettferdig for Gud, eller en mann ren for sin skaper? 18 Se, på sine tjenere stoler han ikke, og hos sine engler finner han feil*, / {* d.e. ufullkommenhet.} 19 hvor meget mere da hos dem som bor i hus av ler, og som har sin grunnvoll i støvet - de som knuses lettere enn møll. 20 Fra morgen til aften - så er de sønderslått; uten at nogen akter på det, går de til grunne for alltid. 21 Blir ikke teltsnoren dradd ut* hos dem? De dør, men ikke i visdom. / {* så deres jordiske telt (2KO 5, 1.) faller sammen.}
Romanian(i) 1 Elifaz din Teman a luat cuvîntul şi a zis: 2 ,,Dacă vom îndrăzni să-ţi vorbim, te vei supăra? Dar cine ar putea să tacă? 3 De multeori tu ai învăţat pe alţii, şi ai întărit mînile slăbite. 4 Cuvintele tale au ridicat pe cei ce se clătinau, şi ai întărit genunchii cari se îndoiau. 5 Şi acum, cînd este vorba de tine, eşti slab! Acum, cînd eşti atins tu, te turburi! Nu este frica ta de Dumnezeu sprijinul tău? 6 Nădejdea ta, nu -i neprihănirea ta? 7 Adu-ţi aminte, te rog: care nevinovat a perit? Cari oameni neprihăniţi au fost nimiciţi? 8 După cîte am văzut eu, numai cei ce ară fărădelegea şi samănă nelegiuirea îi seceră roadele! 9 Aceia pier prin suflarea lui Dumnezeu, nimiciţi de vîntul mîniei Lui. 10 Mugetul leilor încetează, dinţii puilor de lei sînt zdrobiţi! 11 Leul bătrîn piere din lipsă de pradă, şi puii leoaicei se risipesc. 12 Un cuvînt s'a furişat pînă la mine, şi urechea mea i -a prins sunetele uşoare. 13 În clipa cînd vedeniile de noapte frămîntă gîndul, cînd oamenii sînt cufundaţi într'un somn adînc, 14 m'a apucat groaza şi spaima, şi toate oasele mi-au tremut. 15 Un duh a trecut pe lîngă mine... Tot părul mi s'a sbîrlit ca ariciul... 16 Un chip cu o înfăţişare necunoscută era înaintea ochilor mei. Şi am auzit un glas care şoptea încetişor: 17 ,,Fi-va omul fără vină înaintea lui Dumnezeu? Fi-va el curat înaintea Celui ce l -a făcut? 18 Dacă n'are încredere Dumnezeu nici în slujitorii Săi, dacă găseşte El greşeli chiar la îngerii Săi, 19 cu cît mai mult la cei ce locuiesc în case de lut, cari îşi trag obîrşia din ţărînă, şi pot fi zdrobiţi ca un vierme! 20 De dimineaţă pînă seara sînt zdrobiţi, pier pentru totdeauna, şi nimeni nu ţine seama de ei. 21 Li se taie firul vieţii: mor, şi tot n'au căpătat înţelepciunea!
Ukrainian(i) 1 І відповів теманянин Еліфаз та й сказав: 2 Коли спробувать слово до тебе, чи мука не буде ще більша? Та хто стримати зможе слова? 3 Таж ти багатьох був навчав, а руки ослаблі зміцняв, 4 того, хто спотикавсь, підіймали слова твої, а коліна тремткі ти зміцняв! 5 А тепер, як нещастя на тебе найшло, то ти змучився, тебе досягло воно і ти налякався... 6 Хіба не була богобійність твоя за надію твою, за твоє сподівання невинність доріг твоїх? 7 Пригадай но, чи гинув невинний, і де праведні вигублені? 8 Як я бачив таких, що орали були беззаконня, та сіяли кривду, то й жали її: 9 вони гинуть від подиху Божого, і від духу гнівного Його погибають! 10 Левине ричання й рик лютого лева минає, і левчукам вилущаються зуби. 11 Гине лев, як немає здобичі, і левенята левиці втікають. 12 І закрадається слово до мене, і моє ухо почуло ось дещо від нього. 13 у роздумуваннях над нічними видіннями, коли міцний сон обіймає людей, 14 спіткав мене жах та тремтіння, і багато костей моїх він струсонув, 15 і дух перейшов по обличчі моїм, стало дуба волосся на тілі моїм... 16 Він стояв, але я не пізнав його вигляду, образ навпроти очей моїх був, і тихий голос почув я: 17 Хіба праведніша людина за Бога, хіба чоловік за свойого Творця є чистіший? 18 Таж рабам Своїм Він не йме віри, і накладає вину й на Своїх Анголів! 19 Що ж тоді мешканці глиняних хат, що в поросі їхня основа? Як міль, вони будуть розчавлені! 20 Вони товчені зранку до вечора, і без помочі гинуть назавжди... 21 Слава їхня минається з ними, вони помирають не в мудрості!...
