Job 16:17 Cross References - ECB

¹⁷ no violence is in my palms; and my prayer is pure.

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
