Job 4:1 And Eliphas the Themanite aunswered, & sayde: Job 4:2 If we assay to come with thee, wilt thou be discontent? But who can withhold him selfe from speaking? Job 4:3 Beholde, thou hast ben an instructer of many, & hast strenghtned the weery handes: Job 4:4 Thy wordes haue set vp him that was falling, thou hast refreshed the weake knees. Job 4:5 But nowe it is come vpon thee, and thou art greeued: it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled. Job 4:6 Was not thy feare according to thy hope? and the perfectnesse of thy wayes according to thy expectation? Job 4:7 Consider I pray thee who euer perished beyng an innocent? or when were the godly destroyed? Job 4:8 For as I haue proued by experience, they that plow iniquitie & sow wretchednesse, reape the same. Job 4:9 With the blast of God they perishe, with the breath of his nostrels are they consumed away. Job 4:10 The roring of the lion, and the voyce of the lion, and the teeth of the lions whelpes are pulled out. Job 4:11 The lion perisheth for lake of pray, & the lions whelpes are scattered abrode. Job 4:12 But wheras a thing was hyd from me, yet myne care hath receaued a litle therof. Job 4:13 In the thoughtes and visions of the night when sleepe commeth on men, Job 4:14 Feare came vpon me & dread, which made all my bones to shake. Job 4:15 The winde passed by before my presence, and made the heeres of my fleshe to stande vp. Job 4:16 He stoode thereon and I knewe not his face, an image there was before myne eyes, and in the stilnesse hearde I a voyce. Job 4:17 Shall man be more iust then God? or shall a man be purer then his maker? Job 4:18 Beholde, he founde not trueth in his seruauntes, and in his angels there was folly: Job 4:19 Howe much more in them that dwel in houses of clay, and whose foundation is but dust, which shall be consumed as it were with a moth? Job 4:20 They shalbe smitten from the morning vnto the euening: yea they shall perishe for euer, when no man regardeth them. Job 4:21 Is not their royaltie gone away with them? they shall dye truely, and not in wysdome.
