THEN Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said,</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013391">2</a>. If we assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieved?  but who can withhold himself from speaking?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013392">3</a>. Behold, thou hast instructed many, and thou hast strengthened the weak hands.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013393">4</a>. Thy words have upholden him that was falling, and thou hast strengthened the feeble knees.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013394">5</a>. But now it is come upon thee, and thou faintest; it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013395">6</a>. Is not this thy fear, thy confidence, thy hope, and the uprightness of thy ways?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013396">7</a>. Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent?  or where were the righteous cut off?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013397">8</a>. Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013398">9</a>. By the blast of God they perish, and by the breath of his nostrils are they consumed.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013399">10</a>. The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion, and the teeth of the young lions, are broken.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013400">11</a>. The old lion perisheth for lack of prey, and the stout lion's whelps are scattered abroad.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013401">12</a>. Now a thing was secretly brought to me, and mine ear received a little thereof.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013402">13</a>. In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falleth on men,</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013403">14</a>. Fear came upon me, and trembling, which made all my bones to shake.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013404">15</a>. Then a spirit passed before my face; the hair of my flesh stood up:</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013405">16</a>. 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,</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013406">17</a>. Shall mortal man be more just than God?  shall a man be more pure than his maker?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013407">18</a>. Behold, he put no trust in his servants; and his angels he charged with folly:</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013408">19</a>. How much less in them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, which are crushed before the moth?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013409">20</a>. They are destroyed from morning to evening: they perish for ever without any regarding it.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013410">21</a>. Doth not their excellency which is in them go away?  they die, even without wisdom.</li>
