욥기 4장 NASB
- 1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered
- 2 "If one ventures a word with you will you become impatient? But who can refrain from speaking?
- 3 "Behold you have admonished many And you have strengthened weak hands.
- 4 "Your words have helped the tottering to stand And you have strengthened feeble knees.
- 5 "But now it has come to you and you are impatient; It touches you and you are dismayed.
- 6 "Is not your fear of God your confidence And the integrity of your ways your hope?
- 7 "Remember now who ever perished being innocent? Or where were the upright destroyed?
- 8 "According to what I have seen those who plow iniquity And those who sow trouble harvest it.
- 9 "By the breath of God they perish And by the blast of His anger they come to an end.
- 10 "The roaring of the lion and the voice of the fierce lion And the teeth of the young lions are broken.
- 11 "The lion perishes for lack of prey And the whelps of the lioness are scattered.
- 12 "Now a word was brought to me stealthily And my ear received a whisper of it.
- 13 "Amid disquieting thoughts from the visions of the night When deep sleep falls on men
- 14 Dread came upon me and trembling And made all my bones shake.
- 15 "Then a spirit passed by my face; The hair of my flesh bristled up.
- 16 "It stood still but I could not discern its appearance; A form was before my eyes; There was silence then I heard a voice:
- 17 'Can mankind be just before God? Can a man be pure before his Maker?
- 18 'He puts no trust even in His servants; And against His angels He charges error.
- 19 'How much more those who dwell in houses of clay Whose foundation is in the dust Who are crushed before the moth!
- 20 'Between morning and evening they are broken in pieces; Unobserved they perish forever.
- 21 'Is not their tent-cord plucked up within them? They die yet without wisdom.'
