IYOB ANSWERS
And Iyob answers and says, ² I hear many such as these; sighers of toil - all of you. ³ Is there an end to words of wind/spirit? What reinforces you to answer? ⁴ I also word as you; O that your soul were in the stead of my soul to charm utterances against you and shake my head at you. ⁵ I strengthen you by my mouth that the moving of my lips spare you. ⁶ Though I word, my pain is not spared; and though I cease, what goes? ⁷ But now I weary; you desolate all my witnesses; ⁸ you pluck me for a witness; my emaciation rises within me and answers to my face: ⁹ in his wrath, my opponent tears me; he gnashes on me with his teeth; my tribulator sharpens his eyes on me; ¹⁰ they gape on me with their mouth; they smite me on the cheek reproachfully; they fulfill against me. ¹¹ El shuts me to the pervert and hurls me to the hands of the wicked. ¹² I am serene, and he breaks me; and he takes me by my neck and shatters me; he raises me for his target; ¹³ his archers surround me; he cleaves my reins and spares not; he pours out my bitters on the earth; ¹⁴ he breaches me at the face of breach on breach; he runs on me as the mighty. ¹⁵ I sew saq on my skin and exploit my horn in the dust; ¹⁶ my face foams with weeping and on my eyelids is the shadow of death; ¹⁷ no violence is in my palms; and my prayer is pure. ¹⁸ O earth, cover not my blood that there be no place for my cry. ¹⁹ Also now, behold, my witness in the heavens; my witness in the heights. ²⁰ My friends scorn me; but my eye drips to Elohah. ²¹ O that one reprove for the mighty with Elohah as a son of humanity for his friend! ²² When years of number come, I go the way of no return.

²⁵ How reinforcing the sayings of straightness! And what does your reproving reprove?

² Answer we not this abundance of words? - justify a man full of lips? ³ - that your lies hush men? - and when you deride, that no one shames you?

Bellows the ox over his fodder?

¹⁴ He who melts, has mercy from his friend; but he forsakes the awe of Shadday.

¹⁵ - this - the city of jumping for joy who settles confidently - who says in her heart, I - and there is no one beside me! How she becomes a desolation - a resting place for live beings! every one who passes by her hisses and wags his hand.

¹²

THE MINISTRY OF RESTORATION
Brothers, whenever a human is overtaken in backsliding, you who are spiritual, prepare such a one in the spirit of meekness; scoping yourself, lest you also are tested.

¹ My soul loathes life; I forsake my self-meditation; I word in the bitterness of my soul.

¹ To His Eminence; Yeduthun/A Laudatory: A Psalm by Asaph. My voice is to Elohim; I cry: - my voice is to Elohim; and he hearkens to me: ² in the day of my tribulation I seek Adonay; my hand runs in the night, and exhale not; my soul refuses to sigh. ³ I remember Elohim, and roar; I meditate, and my spirit languishes. Selah. ⁴ You hold my eye guards: I am agitated; I cannot word: ⁵ I fabricate the days of antiquity - the years of eternity: ⁶ I remember my strumming in the night; I meditate with my heart; my spirit searches. ⁷ Adonay - casts he off eternally? - never again to please? ⁸ - cease his mercy in perpetuity? - cease his sayings generation to generation? ⁹ - forgets El to grant charism? - in wrath shuts his tender mercies? Selah.

¹⁵ I am humbled - expiring since ladhood; I bear your terrors - perplexed; ¹⁶ your fuming passes over me; your terrors exterminate me; ¹⁷ surrounding me all day as water: they altogether surround me. ¹⁸ You far removed lover and friend from me and they whom I know into darkness.

¹⁵ and the Sabeans felled them and took them away; yes, they smote the lads with the mouth of the sword; and I - I only escaped alone to tell you. ¹⁶ While he is yet wording, another also comes and says, The fire of Elohim fell from the heavens and burned up the flocks and the lads and consumed them; and I - I only escaped alone to tell you. ¹⁷ While he is yet wording, another also comes and says, The Kesediym set out three heads and stripped the camels and took them away; yes, and smote the servants with the mouth of the sword; and I - I only escaped alone to tell you. ¹⁸ While he is yet wording, another also comes and says, Your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking wine in the house of their firstbirthed brother; ¹⁹ and behold, a great wind came from across the wilderness and touched the four corners of the house and it fell upon the lads and they are dead; and I - I only escaped alone to tell you.

¹⁷ There the wicked cease from commotion; and there the wearied of force rest;

³ thus I inherit moons of vanity and nights of toil are numbered to me.

¹⁶ I spurn; I live not eternally; let me decease; for my days are vanity.

⁵ when Shadday was yet with me; when my lads surrounded me; ⁶ when I bathed my steps with butter and the rock poured me rivulets of oil; ⁷ when I went out to the portal through the city; when I prepared my settlement in the broadway! ⁸ The lads saw me and hid themselves and the aged rose and stood; ⁹ governors refrained uttering and set their palm on their mouth; ¹⁰ the eminent hid their voice and their tongue adhered to their palate. ¹¹ When the ear heard, it called me blithesome; and when the eye saw, it gave me witness; ¹² because I rescued them who cried - the humble and the orphan and whoever had no helper. ¹³ The blessing of him who was ready to destruct came on me; and I caused the heart of the widow to shout. ¹⁴ I enrobed justness and it enrobed me; my judgment was as a mantle and a turban; ¹⁵ I was eyes to the blind and feet to the lame; ¹⁶ - a father to the needy. I probed contentions that I knew not; ¹⁷ I broke the molars of the wicked and cast the prey from his teeth. ¹⁸ And I said, I expire in my nest and my days abound as the sand. ¹⁹ My root spreads to the waters and the dew stays overnight on my clippings. ²⁰ My honor is new within me and my bow changes in my hand. ²¹ To me they hearken and wait and hush at my counsel. ²² After my words they reiterated not; and my utterances dropped on them; ²³ they awaited me as for the rain; they gaped their mouth as for the after rain. ²⁴ I laughed on them, they trusted not; and the light of my face they felled not. ²⁵ I chose their way, and settled as head; and tabernacled as a sovereign in the troops, as one who sighs over the mourners.

⁶ I belabor with my sighing; all night my bed swims: I flow my bedstead with my tears; ⁷ my eye is motheaten in vexation - antiquates because of all my tribulators.

¹¹ My son, neither spurn the discipline of Yah Veh nor abhor his reproof: ¹² for whom Yah Veh loves, he reproves - even as a father the son who pleases him.

⁴
THE TONGUE OF THE DISCIPLED
Adonay Yah Veh gives me the tongue of the discipled, to know how to reinforce a word to the weary: he wakens morning by morning; he wakens my ear to hear as the discipled:

¹³ And I also, in smiting you, I stroke you - desolate you because of your sins.

²¹ I go out full and Yah Veh turns me back. Why call me Noomiy, seeing Yah Veh answers against me and Shadday vilifies me?

¹⁷ you renew your witnesses against me and abound your vexation with me; changes and hostility are against me.

²⁰ my bone adheres to my skin and to my flesh and I escape with the skin of my t`eeth.

¹⁵ He gave them their petition and sent emaciation to their soul:

²⁴ my knees falter through fasting; my flesh emaciates of ointment;

¹⁶ So Adonay - Adonay Sabaoth sends emaciation among his fatness; and under his honor he burns a burning as the burning of a fire:

¹⁶ From the uttermost wing of the earth we hear songs - the splendor of the just: and I say, My emaciation! My emaciation! Woe to me! the coverters covert; yes, the coverters covert:

²⁷ to present to himself a glorious ecclesia - not having stain or wrinkle or any such; but that it be holy and unblemished.

¹⁶ for it rises; you hunt me as a roaring lion; you turn back; you show yourself marvellous in me; ¹⁷ you renew your witnesses against me and abound your vexation with me; changes and hostility are against me.

²⁴ Why hide your face and fabricate me for your enemy?

²⁷ You also set my feet in the stocks and guard all my paths; you engrave on the roots of my feet;

⁴ He tears his soul in his wrath. Is the earth forsaken for your sake? Is the rock removed from its place?

¹¹ He kindles his wrath against me and fabricates me as one of his tribulators.

¹⁶ With profaners, jeerers at bakings, they gnash on me with their teeth.

¹² The wicked intrigues against the just and gnashes on him with his teeth.

²² I beseech, discern this, you who forget Elohah, lest I tear in pieces and there be no one to rescue.

¹⁶ All your enemies gasp their mouth against you; they hiss and gnash the teeth; they say, We swallowed her! Surely this is the day we awaited! We found! We saw!

¹⁰ he is to me as a bear lurking - a lion in coverts:

¹⁴ For I am to Ephrayim as a roaring lion and as a whelp to the house of Yah Hudah: I - I tear and go away; I bear away; and no one rescues:

¹
THE CALL TO YISRA EL TO RETURN TO YAH VEH
Come, and return to Yah Veh: for he tears, and he heals us; he smites, and he binds us:

⁸ Cheer not against me, O my enemy: when I fall, I rise; when I sit in darkness Yah Veh is my light.

⁵⁴
STEPHANOS IS STONED
They hear these and are cut to the heart; and they gnash on him with their teeth:

²⁴ And Sidqi Yah the son of Kenaanah comes near and smites Michah Yah on the cheek and says, Where passes the Spirit of Yah Veh from me to word to you?

²³ And Sidqi Yah the son of Kenaanah comes near and smites Michah Yah on the cheek, and says, Which way passes the Spirit of Yah Veh from me to word to you?

¹³ they gape on me with their mouths as a tearing and a roaring lion.

¹⁶ For dogs surround me; the witness of vilifiers surround me: my hands and my feet as a lion. ¹⁷ I scribe all my bones; they look and see me;

¹⁵ And in my limping they cheer and gather together; the smiters gather against me and I know it not; they rip and hush not.

²¹ yes, they enlarge their mouth against me and say, Aha, aha, our eye sees!

²¹ They troop against the soul of the just and innocent blood, thet judge wicked:

⁶
A MESSIANIC PROPHECY
I give my back to the smiters and my cheeks to them who balden; I hide not my face from shame and spitting;

³⁰ he gives his cheek to his smiter; he satiates with reproach.

¹
THE BIRTH OF THE ETERNAL DOMINATOR
Now, troop together, O daughter of troops: he sets a siege against us: with a scion on the cheek they smite the judge of Yisra El.

⁶⁷ - then they spit in his face and punch him. And others slap him,

³⁵ and the people stand observing. and also the archs with them sneer, wording, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be the Messiah, the select of Elohim. ³⁶ And the warriors also mock him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar,

²² And when he says thus, one of the attendants present gives Yah Shua a slap, saying, Answer you the archpriest thus?

²⁷ For of a truth, against your holy lad Yah Shua whom you anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilatos with the goyim and the people of Yisra El gathered together,

² - and the archpriest Hanan Yah orders those standing by him to strike him on the mouth.

²⁰ For you tolerate if anyone enslaves you, if anyone devours, if anyone takes, if anyone exalts himself, if anyone flogs you on the face.

¹⁸ and you tell this day how you work good with me: how Yah Veh shut me into your hand, and you slaughtered me not:

¹³
THE FIRST TEST OF IYOB
And so be it, a day his sons and his daughters are eating and drinking wine in the house of their firstbirthed brother; ¹⁴ and an angel comes to Iyob and says, The oxen were plowing and the she burros tending at their hands;

⁷
THE SECOND TEST OF IYOB
And Satan goes from the face of Yah Veh and smites Iyob with evil ulcers from the sole of his foot to his scalp.

¹⁴ Behold, he despoils with mischief and conceives toil and births falsehood:

¹² Give me not to the soul of my tribulators; for false witnesses rise against me - such as exhale violence.

⁸ And you shut me not in the hand of the enemy; you stand my feet in an expanse:

¹⁶
YAH SHUA STAKED
So then he delivers him to them to stake: and they take Yah Shua, and lead him away:

³² For Elohim locked them all together in distrust to mercy them all.

⁷
THE THORN OF PAULOS
And lest I be superciliously exalted through the excellence of the apocalypses, I was given a thorn in the flesh - an angel of Satan to punch me, lest I be superciliously exalted. ^{Numbers 33:55, Joshua 23:13, Judges 2:3, Ezekiel El 28:24, Nahum 1:10}

² And seven sons and three daughters are birthed to him; ³ and his chattel: seven thousand flocks and three thousand camels and five hundred yoke of oxen and five hundred she burros and a mighty great servantry; so that this man is the greatest of all the men of the east.

²⁶ I neither serenified, nor had I rest, nor rested I; yet commotion came.

¹⁰ The roaring of the lion and the voice of the roaring lion and the teeth of the whelps - all are pulled.

¹² Am I a sea or a monster that you set a guard over me?

²⁰ I sinned; what do I to you, O you guardian of humanity? Why set me as a target against you, so that I am a burden to myself?

¹⁷ though he crushes me with a whirling and abounds my wounds gratuitously;

²⁶ He runs on him - on his neck - on the thick bosses of his shields;

³ when his lamp halaled on my head; when by his light I walked the darkness;

¹⁸ And I said, I expire in my nest and my days abound as the sand. ¹⁹ My root spreads to the waters and the dew stays overnight on my clippings.

¹⁹ though you crushed us in the place of monsters and covered us with the shadow of death.

⁴ he wears out my flesh and my skin; he breaks my bones;

¹¹ he turns aside my ways and tears me; he sets me desolate; ¹² he bends his bow and stations me as a target for the arrow;

⁷ They apprehend you by your palm; you crush and split all their shoulder: and when they lean on you, you break and shake all their loins.

⁴⁴ And whoever falls on this stone crushes: but on whomever it falls, pulverizes. ^{Isaiah 8:14}

⁴ who laid down their own necks for my soul: to whom, not only I eucharistize, but also all the ecclesiae of the goyim:

²³ the masters of arrows embitter him and shoot and oppose him:

²⁰ Yah Veh wills to not forgive him; for then the wrath and the jealousy of Yah Veh fumes against that man; and all the oaths inscribed in this scroll crouch upon him; and Yah Veh wipes his name from under the heavens:

⁴ for the arrows of Shadday are within me, whereof the poison drinks up my spirit; the terrors of Elohah line up against me.

¹⁰ And yet it is my sighing; I jump with pangs; he spares not: for I conceal not the sayings of the Holy One.

²⁷ - see for myself - my eyes see and not a stranger; though my reins finish off within my bosom.

²⁵ - drawn and comes from his body; yes, the lightning sword comes from his gall; with terrors on him.

¹² If he turns not, he sharpens his sword; he bends his bow and prepares ¹³ - prepares the instruments of death for him; he heats his arrows for them who pursue.

¹¹ My eyes finish off with tears; my inwards foam; my liver pours on the earth for the breech of the daughter of my people; because the infants and the sucklings languish in the broadways of the city.

¹³ he has the sons of his quiver enter my reins.

¹¹ So - I live - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh because you foul my holies with all your abominations and with all your abhorrences, I also diminish you; neither my eye spares nor I compassion.

³² - Who indeed spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how indeed, with him, grants he us not also charism with all?

⁵ and spared not the ancient cosmos; but guarded Noach the eighth - a preacher of justness; bringing in the cataclysm on the cosmos of the irreverent;

⁸ - and he smites them leg to flank with a great stroke: and he descends and settles in the cleft of the rock Etam.

⁷ Abyss calls to abyss at the voice culverts; all your breakers and your waves pass over me.

³ surely he turns against me - turns his hand all the day: ⁴ he wears out my flesh and my skin; he breaks my bones; ⁵ he builds against me and surrounds me with rosh and travail;

⁷ they run as the mighty; they ascend the wall as men of war; and every man marches on his ways: and they neither entangle their paths

³⁴ - and Yaaqov rips his clothes and puts saq on his loins and mourns for his son many days.

¹⁰ Yah Veh - his contenders terrify; from the heavens he thunders on them: Yah Veh rules the finality of the earth; he gives his sovereign strength and exalts the horn of his anointed.

²⁷ And so be it, Ach Ab hears those words, and he rips his clothes and sets saq on his flesh and fasts and lies down in saq and walks gently.

¹⁹ He casts me into the clay and I become as dust and ashes.

⁵ may the enemy pursue and overtake my soul; yes, trample my life on the earth and tabernacle my honor in the dust. Selah.

⁵ Lift not your horn to the heights or word with an impudent neck:

¹⁰ All the horns of the wicked I cut off; and exalt the horns of the just.

¹² And in that day, Adonay Yah Veh Sabaoth calls to weeping and to chopping and to baldness and to girding with sackcloth:

⁷ and my eye is dim of vexation and all my forms as a shadow;

⁹ grant me charism, O Yah Veh, for I tribulate; my eye, my soul and my belly are motheaten with vexation.

³ When I hush, my bones become worn through my roaring all day long:

³ I belabored of my calling; my throat scorches; my eyes finish off as I await my Elohim.

³ For my days finish off as smoke and my bones scorch as a burning: ⁴ my heart is smitten and withers as herbage; so that I forget to eat my bread: ⁵ by reason of the voice of my sighing my bones adhere to my flesh:

⁹ For I eat ashes as bread and mix my drink with weeping

³ the cords of death surround me and the straits of sheol find me: I find tribulation and grief:

¹⁴ As many astonish at you; his visage so ruined by man; and his form by the sons of humanity:

¹⁶ I weep for these; my eye - my eye cascades with water, because the sigher to restore my soul is far from me; my sons desolate, for the enemy prevails mightily.

¹
THE PRAYER OF YONAH, THE ANSWER OF YAH VEH
And Yonah prays to Yah Veh his Elohim from the inwards of the fish, ² and says, Because of my tribulation I call to Yah Veh; and he answers me: from the belly of sheol I cry; and you hear my voice: ³ for you cast me into the deep, midst the seas; and the rivers surround me: all your breakers and your waves pass over me. ⁴ Then I - I say, I am expelled from your eyes; yet I look again toward your holy manse: ⁵ the waters surround me to the soul; the abyss surrounds me; the reeds bind around my head: ⁶ I descend to the bases of the mountains; the earth with her bars around me eternally: yet you ascend my life from the pit of ruin, O Yah Veh my Elohim. ⁷ When my soul languishes within me I remember Yah Veh: and my prayer comes in to you - into your holy manse. ⁸ They who observe vain vanities forsake their own mercy; ⁹ and I sacrifice to you with the voice of spread hands; I shalam what I vow: salvation is of Yah Veh. ¹⁰ And Yah Veh says to the fish, and it vomits Yonah on the dry.

³⁴ and words to them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful to death: abide here, and watch.

⁵ if you seek El early and seek charism of Shadday; ⁶ if you are pure and straight; surely now he wakes for you and shalams the habitation of rest of your justness.

¹⁴ if mischief be in your hand, remove it far away; tabernacle no wickedness in your tents.

²⁰ The wicked writhes all his days and the number of years is hidden to the tyrant.

³⁴ For the witness of profaners sterilizes; and fire consumes the tents of bribery:

²⁷ Behold, I know the fabrications and intrigues you violate against me: ²⁸ for you say, Where is the house of the volunteer? and where are the tents - the tabernacles of the wicked?

⁵ Is not your evil great? - your perversity endless? ⁶ Gratuitously you take a pledge from your brother and strip the naked of their clothing: ⁷ you give the languid no water to drink; you withhold bread from the famished. ⁸ The man of arm has the earth and the exalted face settles therein: ⁹ you send widows away empty and crush the arms of the orphan.

⁶ I uphold my justness and slacken not; my heart reproaches me not all my days: ⁷ My enemy is as the wicked and he who rises against me as the wicked.

¹² because I rescued them who cried - the humble and the orphan and whoever had no helper. ¹³ The blessing of him who was ready to destruct came on me; and I caused the heart of the widow to shout. ¹⁴ I enrobed justness and it enrobed me; my judgment was as a mantle and a turban; ¹⁵ I was eyes to the blind and feet to the lame; ¹⁶ - a father to the needy. I probed contentions that I knew not; ¹⁷ I broke the molars of the wicked and cast the prey from his teeth.

¹ I cut a covenant with my eyes; and what - discern I a virgin? ² What is the allotment of Elohah from above? What is the inheritance of Shadday from the heights? ³ Is not calamity to the wicked? - a strangeness to the doers of mischief? ⁴ Sees he not my ways? - scribes all my paces? ⁵ If I walk with vanity or my foot hastens to deceit ⁶ weigh me in a balance of justness; Elohah knows my integrity. ⁷ If my step spreads from the way and my heart walks after my eyes; if any blemish adheres to my palms; ⁸ then have me seed and another eat: yes, uproot my offspring. ⁹ If a woman enticed my heart or I lurked at the portal of my friend; ¹⁰ then have my woman grind to another and others kneel to her. ¹¹ For this is intrigue; yes, a judicial perversity: ¹² a fire that consumes to Abaddon and roots out all my produce. ¹³ If I spurn the judgment of my servant or of my maid when they contend with me ¹⁴ What then work I when El rises? When he visits, what respond I? ¹⁵ He who worked me in the belly worked he not also him? - that one who prepared us in the womb? ¹⁶ If I withhold the poor from their desire, or finish off the eyes of the widow; ¹⁷ or eat my morsel myself alone and the orphan eats not; ¹⁸ - for as a father he grew up with me from my youth - led her from the belly of my mother. ¹⁹ If I have seen any destruct for want of robe or the needy without covering; ²⁰ if neither his loins blessed me nor heated with the fleece of my lambs; ²¹ if I shook my hand against the orphan when I saw my help in the portal; ²² then may my shoulder fall from the blade and my arm break at the stem: ²³ for calamity from El is a dread to me and by reason of his exalting I am not able. ²⁴ If I set gold my hope or said to the ore, My confidence! ²⁵ if I cheer because my valuables are great and because my hand found much; ²⁶ if I see the light when it halals or the moon walking in esteem; ²⁷ and my heart covertly duped or my mouth kiss my hand; ²⁸ this also is a judicial perversity: for I denied El above. ²⁹ If I cheer at the calamity of my hater, or waken when evil finds him; ³⁰ I give not my palate to sin by asking him to oath his soul. ³¹ If not, men of my tent, say you, Who gives that we have of his flesh - we are not satisfied. ³² The sojourner stayed not overnight in the outways; I opened my doors to the wayward. ³³ If I covered my rebellions as humanity by hiding my perversity in my bosom; ³⁴ then I dread a great multitude - and the disrespect of families terrify me - and I hush and go not from the portal. ³⁵ Who gives that someone hear me! Behold, my mark! Shadday, answer me! Man of contention, scribe a scroll! ³⁶ If not, I lift it on my shoulder and fasten it to me as a crown. ³⁷ I tell him my paces; as an eminent I go near him. ³⁸ If my soil cries against me, and the furrows weep together; ³⁹ if I have eaten the produce without silver or caused the masters to expire their soul; ⁴⁰ may thorns grow instead of wheat and stinkweed instead of barley. The words of Iyob are consummated.

³ O Yah Veh my Elohim, If I worked this; if there is wickedness in my palms; ⁴ if I dealt evil to him who shalamed with me; or rescued my tribulator in vain: ⁵ may the enemy pursue and overtake my soul; yes, trample my life on the earth and tabernacle my honor in the dust. Selah.

¹⁷ All this comes to us: yet we neither forgot you nor falsified in your covenant ¹⁸ nor apostatized our heart nor stretched our steps from your way: ¹⁹ though you crushed us in the place of monsters and covered us with the shadow of death. ²⁰ If we forget the name of our Elohim or spread our palms to a strange el; ²¹ is this not probed by Elohim? - for he knows the concealments of the heart.

¹⁸ If I see mischief in my heart Adonay hears me not: ¹⁹ surely Elohim hears; he hearkens to the voice of my prayer.

⁸ The sacrifice of the wicked is an abhorrence to Yah Veh; and the prayer of the straight is his pleasure.

⁶ Neither their webs become clothes, nor cover they themselves with their works: their works are works of mischief and the deed of violence is in their palms.

⁸ and humanity and animal covers with saq and calls out severely to Elohim: yes, every man turns from his evil way and from the violence in their palms.

⁸
COSMIC MANNERS AND COSTUME
So I will that men pray in every place lifting hands of mercy apart from wrath and reasoning.

¹¹ and now you are cursed from the soil - which gapes her mouth to take the blood of your brother from your hand:

⁵ and neither cover their perversity nor wipe away their sin from your face: for they vex you in front of the builders.

⁹ Hears El his cry when tribulation overcomes him?

¹⁵ And in spreading your palms, I conceal my eyes from you: yes, your abounding prayers I hear not: your hands are filled with blood.

²¹ For, behold, Yah Veh comes from his place to visit on the settlers of the earth for their perversity: and the earth exposes her blood, and no more covers her slaughtered.

⁹ Then you call and Yah Veh answers; you cry and he says, Behold - I. If you turn aside the yoke pole from your midst - the spreading of the finger and wording mischief; ¹⁰ and if you produce your soul to the famished and satisfy the humbled soul; then your light rises in obscurity and your darkness as the noon;

²⁹ O earth! Earth! Earth! Hear the word of Yah Veh!

⁷ For her blood is in her midst; she sets it on the clearing of a rock; she pours it not on the earth, to cover it with dust;

³ You ask and take not because you ask evily to spend it in your pleasures. ⁴ You adulterers and adulteresses, know you not that the friendship of the cosmos is enmity with Elohim? So whoever wills to be a friend of the cosmos is seated - an enemy of Elohim.

⁵⁰ If you humble my daughters, or if you take women beside my daughters - no man is with us - see Elohim is witness between me and between you.

⁵ And he says to them, Yah Veh is witness against you and his anointed is witness this day, that you find not aught in my hand. And they say, He is witness.

² Dominion and dread are with him; he works shalom in his heights.

⁵ Who is as Yah Veh our Elohim? Who lofts in his settlement?

PAULOS DESIRES TO VISIT ROME
For Elohim is my witness - whom I liturgize in my spirit in the evangelism of his Son; as unceasingly I make remembrance of you always in my prayers;

THE SELECTION OF YISRA EL BY ELOHIM
I word the truth in Messiah; I lie not; my conscience also co-witnesses in the Holy Spirit;

²³ And I call Elohim for a witness upon my soul, so as to spare you, I came no more to Corinth.

³¹ The Elohim and Father of our Adonay Yah Shua Messiah who is eulogized to the eons, knows that I lie not.

⁵ For we never ever became in fawning words exactly as you know; nor in a pretext of avarice; as Elohim witnesses:

¹⁰ You and Elohim are witnesses, how mercifully and justly and unblameably we became among you who trust:

⁴ I am as one ridiculed by his friend, who calls on Elohah and he answers him; he ridicules the just, the integrious. ⁵ He who prepares to waver with his feet is as a flambeau disrespected in the thoughts of him who relaxes.

⁴ I also word as you; O that your soul were in the stead of my soul to charm utterances against you and shake my head at you.

² If not, mockeries are with me and my eye is stayed in their rebelling?

⁴ instead of my love, they are my satans; but I - prayer:

² I pour my meditation at his face; I tell my tribulation to his face:

⁴ Yes, he dominated over the angel and prevailed by weeping and was granted charism: he found him in Beth El and there he worded with us; ⁵ even Yah Veh Elohim Sabaoth; Yah Veh is his memorial.

¹¹ And they fill full with mindlessness; and talk thoroughly one with another of what to do to Yah Shua. ¹²
YAH SHUA SELECTS TWELVE APOSTLES
And so be it, in those days, he goes to a mountain to pray, and continues all night in prayer to Elohim.

⁷ - who in the days of his flesh when he offered petitions and entreaties, with mighty crying and tears to him who was able to save him from death and was heard by his revering; ^{Psalm 19:9}

³⁴ He turns aside his scion from me; his terror frightens me not; ³⁵ I word, and awe him not; but not so with me.

³ Yet I word to Shadday and I desire to reprove El:

²² And you call and I - I respond; or, I word and you answer me.

³ Who gives that I know - that I find him - that I come to his place! ⁴ O that I line up my judgment at his face and fill my mouth with reproofs. ⁵ O that I know the utterances he answers me and discern what he says to me. ⁶ Contends he against me with his abundant force? No; but he sets it in me. ⁷ There the straight reprove him; and in perpetuity, I slip away from my judge.

³⁵ Who gives that someone hear me! Behold, my mark! Shadday, answer me! Man of contention, scribe a scroll!

¹ Yah Veh answers Iyob and says, ² Contends the reprover with Shadday? Whoever reproves Elohah, answer! ³
IYOB ANSWERS YAH VEH
And Iyob answers Yah Veh and says, ⁴ Behold, I am abased; What respond I to you? I set my hand to my mouth. ⁵ I worded once; but I answer not: yes, twice; but not again.

¹⁰ What became? its name is already called; and know that it is humanity: he is not able to plead his cause with him who is mightier than he.

⁹ Ho to him who strives with his Former! - a potsherd among the potsherds of the soil. Says the morter to the Former, What work you? Or of your deeds, No hands?

²⁰ Yet so, O humanity, who are you to contradict Elohim? Says the molded to the molder, Why made you me thus?

⁹ the cloud finishes off and goes; thus he who descends to sheol ascends not again; ¹⁰ he neither returns to his house, nor his place recognizes him again.

⁵ Seeing his days are appointed, the number of his months are with you, you work his statutes and he passes not;

¹⁰ the mighty dies and decays; yes, humanity expires - and where is he?

¹⁴ If the mighty die, enlivens he? All the days of my hostility, I wait - until my change comes.

⁵ and they awe the heights with terrors in the way; and the almond tree flourishes; and the locust becomes a burden; and desire breaks down because humanity goes to his eternal house and the choppers turn around the streets:
