    Job 4
    •   And Eliphaz the Temanite made answer and said,
    •   If one says a word, will it be a weariness to you? but who is able to keep from saying what is in his mind?
    •   Truly, you have been a helper to others, and you have made feeble hands strong;
    •   He who was near to falling has been lifted up by your words, and you have given strength to bent knees.
    •   But now it has come on you and it is a weariness to you; you are touched by it and your mind is troubled.
    •   Is not your fear of God your support, and your upright way of life your hope?
    •   Have you ever seen destruction come to an upright man? or when were the god-fearing ever cut off?
    •   What I have seen is that those by whom trouble has been ploughed, and evil planted, get the same for themselves.
    •   By the breath of God destruction takes them, and by the wind of his wrath they are cut off.
    • 10   Though the noise of the lion and the sounding of his voice, may be loud, the teeth of the young lions are broken.
    • 11   The old lion comes to his end for need of food, and the young of the she-lion go wandering in all directions.
    • 12   A word was given to me secretly, and the low sound of it came to my ears.
    • 13   In troubled thoughts from visions of the night, when deep sleep comes on men,
    • 14   Fear came on me and shaking, and my bones were full of trouble;
    • 15   And a breath was moving over my face; the hair of my flesh became stiff:
    • 16   Something was present before me, but I was not able to see it clearly; there was a form before my eyes: a quiet voice came to my ears, saying:
    • 17   May a man be upright before God? or a man be clean before his Maker?
    • 18   Truly, he puts no faith in his servants, and he sees error in his angels;
    • 19   How much more those living in houses of earth, whose bases are in the dust! They are crushed more quickly than an insect;
    • 20   Between morning and evening they are completely broken; they come to an end for ever, and no one takes note.
    • 21   If their tent-cord is pulled up, do they not come to an end, and without wisdom?
