twg_000000006537 | plentifully declared the thing as it is? : To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee? : Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof. : Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering. : He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing. | 60 | gutenberg | unknown |

twg_000000006581 | that I kept silence, and went not out of the door? : Oh that one would hear me! behold, my desire is, that the Almighty would answer me, and that mine adversary had written a book. : Surely I would take it upon my shoulder, and bind it as a crown to me. : I would declare unto him the | 60 | gutenberg | unknown |
twg_000000006582 | number of my steps; as a prince would I go near unto him. : If my land cry against me, or that the furrows likewise thereof complain; : If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, or have caused the owners thereof to lose their life: : Let thistles grow instead of wheat, and cockle instead of barley.

twg_000000006583 | words of Job are ended. : So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes. : Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram: against Job was his wrath kindled, because he justified himself rather than God. : Also against his three friends | 60 | gutenberg | unknown |

twg_000000006586 | do the aged understand judgment. : Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will shew mine opinion. : Behold, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasons, whilst ye searched out what to say. : Yea, I attended unto you, and, behold, there was none of you that convinced Job, or that answered his words: : | 60 | gutenberg | unknown |
twg_000000006587 | Lest ye should say, We have found out wisdom: God thrusteth him down, not man. : Now he hath not directed his words against me: neither will I answer him with your speeches. : They were amazed, they answered no more: they left off speaking. : When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still, and answered no | 60 | gutenberg | unknown |
twg_000000006588 | more;) : I said, I will answer also my part, I also will shew mine opinion. : For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me. : Behold, my belly is as wine which hath no vent; it is ready to burst like new bottles. : I will speak, that I may be refreshed: I will open | 60 | gutenberg | unknown |
twg_000000006589 | my lips and answer. : Let me not, I pray you, accept any mans person, neither let me give flattering titles unto man. : For I know not to give flattering titles; in so doing my maker would soon take me away. : Wherefore, Job, I pray thee, hear my speeches, and hearken to all my words. : Behold, now | 60 | gutenberg | unknown |

twg_000000006592 | clean without transgression, I am innocent; neither is there iniquity in me. : Behold, he findeth occasions against me, he counteth me for his enemy, : He putteth my feet in the stocks, he marketh all my paths. : Behold, in this thou art not just: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man. : Why dost thou | 60 | gutenberg | unknown |
twg_000000006593 | strive against him? for he giveth not account of any of his matters. : For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not. : In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed; : Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction, : That | 60 | gutenberg | unknown |

twg_000000006598 | soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living. : Mark well, O Job, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I will speak. : If thou hast anything to say, answer me: speak, for I desire to justify thee. : If not, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I shall teach thee wisdom. : | 60 | gutenberg | unknown |
twg_000000006599 | Furthermore Elihu answered and said, : Hear my words, O ye wise men; and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge. : For the ear trieth words, as the mouth tasteth meat. : Let us choose to us judgment: let us know among ourselves what is good. : For Job hath said, I am righteous: and God hath taken | 60 | gutenberg | unknown |
