[1] “However, Job, please hear my speech,
and listen to all my words.
[2] See now, I have opened my mouth.
My tongue has spoken in my mouth.
[3] My words will utter the uprightness of my heart.
That which my lips know they will speak sincerely.
[4] The Spirit of God has made me,
and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.
[5] If you can, answer me.
Set your words in order before me, and stand up.
[6] Behold, I am toward God even as you are.
I am also formed out of the clay.
[7] Behold, my terror will not make you afraid,
neither will my pressure be heavy on you. [8] “Surely you have spoken in my hearing,
I have heard the voice of your words, saying,
[9] ‘I am clean, without disobedience.
I am innocent, neither is there iniquity in me.
[10] Behold, he finds occasions against me.
He counts me for his enemy.
[11] He puts my feet in the stocks.
He marks all my paths.’ [12] “Behold, I will answer you. In this you are not just,
for God is greater than man.
[13] Why do you strive against him,
because he doesn’t give account of any of his matters?
[14] For God speaks once,
yes twice, though man pays no attention.
[15] In a dream, in a vision of the night,
when deep sleep falls on men,
in slumbering on the bed,
[16] then he opens the ears of men,
and seals their instruction,
[17] that he may withdraw man from his purpose,
and hide pride from man.
[18] He keeps back his soul from the pit,
and his life from perishing by the sword. [19] “He is chastened also with pain on his bed,
with continual strife in his bones,
[20] so that his life abhors bread,
and his soul dainty food.
[21] His flesh is so consumed away that it can’t be seen.
His bones that were not seen stick out.
[22] Yes, his soul draws near to the pit,
and his life to the destroyers. [23] “If there is beside him an angel,
an interpreter, one among a thousand,
to show to man what is right for him,
[24] then God is gracious to him, and says,
‘Deliver him from going down to the pit,
I have found a ransom.’
[25] His flesh will be fresher than a child’s.
He returns to the days of his youth.
[26] He prays to God, and he is favorable to him,
so that he sees his face with joy.
He restores to man his righteousness.
[27] He sings before men, and says,
‘I have sinned, and perverted that which was right,
and it didn’t profit me.
[28] He has redeemed my soul from going into the pit.
My life will see the light.’ [29] “Behold, God does all these things,
twice, yes three times, with a man,
[30] to bring back his soul from the pit,
that he may be enlightened with the light of the living.
[31] Mark well, Job, and listen to me.
Hold your peace, and I will speak.
[32] If you have anything to say, answer me.
Speak, for I desire to justify you.
[33] If not, listen to me.
Hold your peace, and I will teach you wisdom.”
King James Version
[1] Wherefore, H199 Job, H347 I pray thee, hear H8085 my speeches, H4405
And hearken H238 to all my words. H1697
[2] Behold, now I have opened H6605 my mouth, H6310
My tongue H3956 hath spoken H1696 in my mouth. H2441§
[3] My words H561 shall be of the uprightness H3476 of my heart: H3820
And my lips H8193 shall utter H4448 knowledge H1847 clearly. H1305
[4] The Spirit H7307 of God H410 hath made H6213 me,
And the breath H5397 of the Almighty H7706 hath given me life. H2421
[5] If thou canst H3201 answer H7725 me,
Set thy words in order H6186 before H6440 me, stand up. H3320
[6] Behold, I am according to thy wish§ H6310 in God’s H410 stead:
I also am formed H7169 out of the clay. H2563§
[7] Behold, my terror H367 shall H1204 not H3808 make thee afraid, H1204
Neither shall my hand H405 be heavy H3513 upon thee.
[8] Surely thou hast spoken H559 in mine hearing, H241§
And I have heard H8085 the voice H6963 of thy words, H4405 saying,
[9] I am clean H2134 without transgression, H6588
I am innocent; H2643 neither is there iniquity H5771 in me.
[10] Behold, he findeth H4672 occasions H8569 against H5921 me,
He counteth H2803 me for his enemy, H341
[11] He putteth H7760 my feet H7272 in the stocks, H5465
He marketh H8104 all H3605 my paths. H734
[12] Behold, in this thou art not just: H6663 I will answer H6030 thee,
that God H433 is greater H7235 than man. H582
[13] Why dost thou strive H7378 against him?
For he giveth not account§ H6030 of any of his matters. H1697
[14] For H3588 God H410 speaketh H1696 once, H259
Yea twice, H8147 yet man perceiveth H7789 it not.
[15] In a dream, H2472 in a vision H2384 of the night, H3915
When deep H8639 sleep falleth H5307 upon H5921 men, H582
In slumberings H8572 upon H5921 the bed; H4904
[16] Then H227 he openeth H1540 the ears H241§ of men, H582
And sealeth H2856 their instruction, H4561
[17] That he may withdraw H5493 man H120 from his purpose, H4639§
And hide H3680 pride H1466 from man. H1397
[18] He keepeth back H2820 his soul H5315 from the pit, H7845
And his life H2416 from perishing H5674 by the sword. H7973§
[19] He is chastened H3198 also with pain H4341 upon H5921 his bed, H4904
And the multitude H7230 H7379 of his bones H6106 with strong H386 pain:
[20] So that his life H2416 abhorreth H2092 bread, H3899
And his soul H5315 dainty H8378 meat. H3978§
[21] His flesh H1320 is consumed away, H3615 that it cannot be seen; H7210
And his bones H6106 that were not seen H7200 stick out. H8192 H8205
[22] Yea, his soul H5315 draweth near H7126 unto the grave, H7845
And his life H2416 to the destroyers. H4191
[23] If there H3426 be a messenger H4397 with him,
An interpreter, H3887 one H259 among a thousand, H505
To shew H5046 unto man H120 his uprightness: H3476
[24] Then he is gracious H2603 unto him, and saith, H559
Deliver H6308 him from going down H3381 to the pit: H7845
I have found H4672 a ransom. H3724§
[25] His flesh H1320 shall be fresher H7375 than a child’s: H5290
He shall return H7725 to the days H3117 of his youth: H5934
[26] He shall pray H6279 unto God, H433 and he will be favourable H7521 unto him:
And he shall see H7200 his face H6440 with joy: H8643
For he will render H7725 unto man H582 his righteousness. H6666
[27] He looketh H7789 upon H5921 men, H582 and if any say, H559
I have sinned, H2398§ and perverted H5753 that which was right, H3477
And it profited H7737 me not;
[28] He will deliver H6299 his soul H5315§ from going H5674 into the pit, H7845
And his life H2416 shall see H7200 the light. H216
[29] Lo, all these things worketh H6466 God H410
Oftentimes H6471§ H7969 with H5973 man, H1397
[30] To bring back H7725 his soul H5315 from H4480 the pit, H7845
To be enlightened H215 with the light H216 of the living. H2416
[31] Mark well, H7181 O Job, H347 hearken H8085 unto me:
Hold thy peace, H2790 and I will speak. H1696
[32] If thou hast H3426 any thing to say, H4405 answer H7725 me:
Speak, H1696 for H3588 I desire H2654 to justify H6663 thee.
[33] If not, hearken H8085 unto me:
Hold thy peace, H2790 and I shall teach H502 thee wisdom. H2451

G3165 [5] Ἐὰν G1437 δύνῃ, G1410 δός G1325 μοι G3427 ἀπόκρισιν G612 πρὸς G4314 ταῦτα· G5023 ὑπόμεινον, G5278 στῆθι G2476 κατ’ G2596 ἐμὲ G1691 καὶ G2532 ἐγὼ G1473 κατὰ G2596 σέ.

G3700 [29] Ἰδοὺ G2400 πάντα G3956 ταῦτα G5023 ἐργᾶται G2038 ὁ G3588 ἰσχυρὸς G2478 ὁδοὺς G3598 τρεῖς G5140 μετὰ G3326 ἀνδρός. G435 [30] Ἀλλ’ G235 ἐρρύσατο G4506 τὴν G3588 ψυχήν G5590 μου G3450 ἐκ G1537 θανάτου, G2288 ἵνα G2443 ἡ G3588 ζωή G2222 μου G3450 ἐν G1722 φωτὶ G5457 αἰνῇ G134 αὐτόν. G846 [31] Ἐνωτίζου, G1801 Ιωβ, G2492 καὶ G2532 ἄκουέ G191 μου· G3450 κώφευσον, καὶ G2532 ἐγώ G1473 εἰμι G1510 λαλήσω. G2980 [32] Εἰ G1487 εἰσὶν G1526 λόγοι, G3056 ἀποκρίθητί G611 μοι· G3427 λάλησον, G2980 θέλω G2309 γὰρ G1063 δικαιωθῆναί G1344 σε. G4571 [33] Εἰ G1487 μή, G3361 σὺ G4771 ἄκουσόν G191 μου· G3450 κώφευσον, καὶ G2532 διδάξω G1321 σε G4571 σοφίαν. G4678
