Job 15 — GMV

15 Verse 1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said, ^{Verse 2} Will a wise man give for answer a mere breath of wisdom? ^{Verse 3} Reasoning with improper sayings, ^{Verse 4} Hast not thou moreover cast off fear, ^{Verse 5} Thou art guilty by the words of thy mouth, ^{Verse 6} Let thine own mouth, and not me, reprove thee: ^{Verse 7} What! art thou the first man that was born? ^{Verse 8} Or hast thou heard the ordinance of the Lord? ^{Verse 9} For what knowest thou, that we know not? ^{Verse 10} Truly among us are both the old and very aged man, ^{Verse 11} Thou hast been scourged for but few of thy sins: ^{Verse 12} What has thy heart dared? ^{Verse 13} That thou hast vented thy rage before the Lord, ^{Verse 14} For who, being a mortal, is such that he shall be blameless? ^{Verse 15} Forasmuch as he trusts not his saints; ^{Verse 16} Alas then, abominable and unclean is man, ^{Verse 17} But I will tell thee, hearken to me; ^{Verse 18} Things wise men say, and their fathers have not hidden. ^{Verse 19} To them alone the earth was given, ^{Verse 20} All the life of the ungodly is spent in care, ^{Verse 21} And his terror is in his ears: ^{Verse 22} Let him not trust that he shall return from darkness, ^{Verse 23} And he has been appointed to be food for vultures; ^{Verse 24} Distress also and anguish shall come upon him: ^{Verse 25} For he has lifted his hands against the Lord, ^{Verse 26} And he has run against him with insolence, ^{Verse 27} For he has covered his face with his fat, ^{Verse 28} And let him lodge in desolate cities, ^{Verse 29} Neither shall he at all grow rich, nor shall his substance remain: ^{Verse 30} Neither shall he in anywise escape the darkness: ^{Verse 31} Let him not think that he shall endure; ^{Verse 32} His harvest shall perish before the time, ^{Verse 33} And let him be gathered as the unripe grape before the time, ^{Verse 34} For death is the witness of an ungodly man, ^{Verse 35} And he shall conceive sorrows,
