  • : 04 . And his sons <1121 ben > went <1980 halak > and feasted <4960 mishteh > [ in their ] houses <1004 bayith > , every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > his day <3117 yowm > ; and sent <7971 shalach > and called <7121 qara> > for their three <7969 shalowsh > sisters <0269 >achowth > to eat <0398 >akal > and to drink <8354 shathah > with them .
  • : 05 And it was so , when <3588 kiy > the days <3117 yowm > of [ their ] feasting <4960 mishteh > were gone <5362 naqaph > about <5362 naqaph > , that Job <0347 >Iyowb > sent <7971 shalach > and sanctified <6942 qadash > them , and rose <7925 shakam > up early <7925 shakam > in the morning <1242 boqer > , and offered <5927 <alah > burnt <5930 <olah > offerings [ according ] to the number <4557 micpar > of them all <3605 kol > : for Job <0347 >Iyowb > said <0559 >amar > , It may <0194 >uwlay > be that my sons <1121 ben > have sinned <2398 chata> > , and cursed <1288 barak > God <0430 >elohiym > in their hearts <3824 lebab > . Thus <3602 kakah > did <6213 <asah > Job <0347 >Iyowb > continually .
  • : 06 . Now there was a day <3117 yowm > when the sons <1121 ben > of God <0430>elohiym > came <0935 bow> > to present <3320 yatsab > themselves before <5921 <al > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > , and Satan <7854 satan > came <0935 bow> > also <1571 gam > among <8432 tavek > them .
  • : 07 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto Satan <7854 satan > , Whence <0370 >aiyn > comest <0935 bow> > thou ? Then Satan <7854 satan > answered <6030 <anah > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > , and said <0559 >amar > , From going <7751 shuwt > to and fro <7751 shuwt > in the earth <0776 >erets > , and from walking <1980 halak > up and down in it .
  • : 08 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto Satan <7854 satan > , Hast thou considered my servant <5650 <ebed > Job <0347 >Iyowb > , that [ there is ] none <0369 >ayin > like <3644 k@mow > him in the earth <0776 >erets > , a perfect <8535 tam > and an upright <3477 yashar > man <0376 >iysh > , one that feareth <3373 yare> > God <0430 >elohiym > , and escheweth <5493 cuwr > evil <7451 ra< > ?
  • : 09 Then Satan <7854 satan > answered <6030 <anah > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > , and said <0559 >amar > , Doth Job <0347 >Iyowb > fear <3372 yare> > God <0430 >elohiym > for nought <2600 chinnam > ?
  • : 10 Hast not thou made an hedge <7753 suwk > about <1157 b@<ad > him , and about <1157 b@<ad > his house <1004 bayith > , and about <1157 b@<ad > all <3605 kol > that he hath on every <5437 cabab > side <5439 cabiyb > ? thou hast blessed <1288 barak > the work <4639 ma<aseh > of his hands <3027 yad > , and his substance <4735 miqneh > is increased <6555 parats > in the land <0776 >erets > .
  • : 11 But put <7971 shalach > forth <7971 shalach > thine hand <3027 yad > now <4994 na> > , and touch <5060 naga< > all <3605 kol > that he hath , and he will curse <1288 barak > thee to thy face <6440 paniym > .
  • : 12 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto Satan <7854 satan > , Behold <2009 hinneh > , all <3605 kol > that he hath [ is ] in thy power <3027 yad > ; only <3535 kibsah > upon himself put <7971 shalach > not forth <7971 shalach > thine hand <3027 yad > . So Satan <7854 satan > went <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > from the presence <6440 paniym > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .
  • : 13 . And there was a day <3117 yowm > when his sons <1121 ben > and his daughters <1121 ben > [ were ] eating <0398 >akal > and drinking <8354 shathah > wine <3196 yayin > in their eldest <1060 b@kowr > brother s <0251 >ach > house <1004 bayith > :

  • : 02 I will say <0559 >amar > unto God <0433 >elowahh > , Do not condemn <7561rasha< > me ; shew <3045 yada< > me wherefore thou contendest with me .
  • : 03 [ Is it ] good <2896 towb > unto thee that thou shouldest oppress <6231 <ashaq > , that thou shouldest despise <3988 ma>ac > the work <3018 y@giya< > of thine hands <3709 kaph > , and shine <3313 yapha< > upon the counsel <6098 <etsah > of the wicked <7563 rasha< > ?

  • : 05 [ Are ] thy days <3117 yowm > as the days <3117 yowm > of man <0582 >enowsh > ? [ are ] thy years <8141 shaneh > as man s <1397 geber > days <3117 yowm > ,
  • : 06 That thou enquirest <1245 baqash > after <0310 >achar > mine iniquity <5771 <avon > , and searchest <1875 darash > after <0310 >achar > my sin <2403 chatta>ah > ?

  • : 13 And these <0428 >el - leh > [ things ] hast thou hid <6845 tsaphan > in thine heart <3824 lebab > : I know <3045 yada< > that this <2063 zo>th > [ is ] with thee .
  • : 14 . If <0518 >im > I sin <2398 chata> > , then thou markest <8104 shamar > me , and thou wilt not acquit <5352 naqah > me from mine iniquity <5771 <avon > .
  • : 15 If <0518 >im > I be wicked <7561 rasha< > , woe <0480 >al@lay > unto me ; and [ if <0518 >im > ] I be righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > , [ yet ] will I not lift <5375 nasa> > up my head <7218 ro>sh > .

  • : 16 For it increaseth <1342 ga>ah > . Thou huntest <6679 tsuwd > me as a fierce <7826 shachal > lion <7826 shachal > : and again <7725 shuwb > thou shewest thyself marvellous <6381 pala> > upon me .
  • : 17 Thou renewest <2318 chadash > thy witnesses <5707 <ed > against <5048 neged > me , and increasest <7235 rabah > thine indignation <3708 ka<ac > upon me ; changes <2487 chaliyphah > and war <6635 tsaba> > [ are ] against <5973 <im > me .
  • : 18 Wherefore <4100 mah > then hast thou brought <3318 yatsa> > me forth <3318 yatsa> > out of the womb <7358 rechem > ? Oh that I had given <1478 gava< > up the ghost <1478 gava< > , and no <3808 lo> > eye <5869 <ayin > had seen <7200 ra>ah > me !

  • : Job 11
  • : 01 . Then answered <6030 <anah > Zophar <6691 Tsowphar > the Naamathite <5284 Na<amathiy > , and said <0559 >amar > ,

  • : 03 Should thy lies <0907 bad > make men <4962 math > hold <2790 charash > their peace <2790 charash > ? and when thou mockest <3932 la<ag > , shall no <0369 >ayin > man make thee ashamed <3637 kalam > ?
  • : 04 For thou hast said <0559 >amar > , My doctrine <3948 leqach > [ is ] pure <2134 zak > , and I am clean <1249 bar > in thine eyes <5869 <ayin > .
  • : 05 But oh that God <0433 >elowahh > would speak <1696 dabar > , and open <6605 pathach > his lips <8193 saphah > against <5973 <im > thee ;

  • : 08 [ It is ] as high <1363 gobahh > as heaven <8064 shamayim > ; what <4100 mah > canst thou do <6466 pa<al > ? deeper <6013 <amoq > than <4480 min > hell <7585 sh@>owl > ; what <4100 mah > canst thou know <3045 yada< > ?

  • : 03 Who <4310 miy > [ is ] he that hideth <5956 <alam > counsel <6098 <etsah > without <1097 b@liy > knowledge <1847 da<ath > ? therefore <3651 ken > have I uttered <5046 nagad > that I understood <0995 biyn > not ; things too wonderful <6381 pala> > for me , which I knew <3045 yada< > not .
  • : 04 Hear <8085 shama< > , I beseech <4994 na> > thee , and I will speak <1696 dabar > : I will demand <7592 sha>al > of thee , and declare <3045 yada< > thou unto me .

  • : 08 Therefore take <3947 laqach > unto you now <6258 <attah > seven <7651 sheba< > bullocks <6499 par > and seven <7651 sheba< > rams <0352 >ayil > , and go <3212 yalak > to my servant <5650 <ebed > Job <0347 >Iyowb > , and offer <5927 <alah > up for yourselves a burnt <5930 <olah > offering ; and my servant <5650 <ebed > Job <0347 >Iyowb > shall pray <6419 palal > for you : for him will I accept <5375 nasa> > : lest <1115 biltiy > I deal <6213 <asah > with you [ after <0310 >achar > your ] folly <5039 n@balah > , in that ye have not spoken <1696 dabar > of me [ the thing which is ] right <3559 kuwn > , like my servant <5650 <ebed > Job <0347 >Iyowb > .
