Job 33 — WBMS
33Verse 1Therefore, Job, hear thou my speeches, and hearken to all my words.Verse 2Lo! I have opened my mouth, my tongue shall speak in my cheeks.Verse 3Of simple heart be my words, and my lips shall speak clean sentence.Verse 4The spirit of God made me, and the breathing of Almighty God quick-ened me.Verse 5If thou mayest, answer thou to me, and stand thou against my face.Verse 6Lo! God made me as and thee; and also I am formed of the same clay.Verse 7Nevertheless my miracle, that is, knowing given of God, either by miracle, to me, make thee not afeared, and mine eloquence be not grievous to thee.Verse 8Thou saidest in mine hearing, and I heard the voice of thy words,Verse 9I am clean, and without guilt, and unwemmed, and wickedness is not in me.Verse 10For God found quarrels in me, therefore he deemed me enemy to himself.Verse 11He hath set [or put] my feet in a stock; he kept all my paths.Verse 12Therefore this thing it is, in which thou art not made just; I shall answer to thee, that God is more than man.Verse 13Thou, Job, strivest against God, that not at all thy words [he] answered to thee.Verse 14God speaketh once, and the second time he rehearseth not the same thing.Verse 15God speaketh by a dream in the vision of night, when sleep falleth on men, and when they sleep in their bed.Verse 16Then he openeth the ears of men, and he teacheth them, and teacheth prudence or discipline;Verse 17that he turn away a man from these things which he made, and deliver him from pride;Verse 18and that he deliver his soul from corruption, and his life, that it go not into sword.Verse 19Also God blameth a man by sorrow in his bed, and he maketh all the bones of him for to wax rotten.Verse 20Bread is made abominable to him in his life, and the meat, that before was to him desirable, loathed to his soul after.Verse 21His flesh shall fail for rot, and his bones, that were covered, shall be made naked.Verse 22His soul shall nigh to corruption, and his life to things bringing death.Verse 23If an angel, one of a thousand, is speaking for him, that he show the equity of man,Verse 24God shall have mercy on him, and shall say, Deliver thou him, that he go not down into corruption; I have found in what thing I shall do mercy to him.Verse 25His flesh is wasted with torments; turn he again to the days of his young waxing age.Verse 26He shall beseech God, and he shall be quemeful to him; and he shall see his face in perfect joy, and he shall yield to man his rightfulness [or rightwiseness].Verse 27He shall behold men, and he shall say, I have sinned, and verily I have trespassed; and I have not received, as I was worthy.Verse 28Forsooth he hath delivered his soul, that it should not go into perish-ing, but that he living should see light.Verse 29Lo! God worketh all these things in three times by all men;Verse 30that he again-call their souls from corruption, and enlighten them in the light of living men.Verse 31Job, take heed, and hear thou me, and be thou still, while I speak.Verse 32But if thou hast ready what thou shalt speak, answer thou to me, speak; for I will or desire, that thou appear just.Verse 33That if thou hast not, hear thou me; be thou still, and I shall teach thee wisdom.
