Job 4 (ASV Interlinear Bible)

1Then answered Eliphaz the Temanite, and said,

2If one assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieved?

But who can withhold himself from speaking?

3Behold, thou hast instructed many,

And thou hast strengthened the weak hands.

4Thy words have upholden him that was falling,

And thou hast made firm the

feeble knees.

5But now it is come unto thee, and thou

Or, art grieved

faintest;

It toucheth thee, and thou art troubled.

6Is not thy fear of God thy confidence,

And the integrity of thy ways thy hope?

7Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent?

Or where were the upright cut off?

8According as I have seen, they that plow iniquity,

And sow

trouble, reap the same.

9By the breath of God they perish,

And by the blast of his anger are they consumed.

10The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion,

And the teeth of the young lions, are broken.

11The old lion perisheth for lack of prey,

And the whelps of the lioness are scattered abroad.

12Now a thing was

secretly brought to me,

And mine ear received a whisper thereof.

13In thoughts from the visions of the night,

When deep sleep falleth on men,

14Fear came upon me, and trembling,

Which made all my bones to shake.

15Then

Or, a breath passed over

a spirit passed before my face;

The hair of my flesh stood up.

16It stood still, but I could not discern the appearance thereof;

A form was before mine eyes:

Or, I heard a still voice

There was silence, and I heard a voice, saying,

Shall a man

18Behold, he putteth no trust in his servants;

And his angels he chargeth with folly:

Whose foundation is in the dust,

Who are crushed

They perish for ever without any regarding it.

Or, Is not their excellency which is in them removed?

Is not their tent-cord plucked up within them?

They die, and that without wisdom.
