    Job 22
    •   Then Eliphaz the Themanite answered, and said:
    •   Can man be compared with God, even though he were of perfect knowledge?
    •   What doth it profit God if thou be just? or what dost thou give him if thy way be unspotted?
    •   Shall he reprove thee for fear, and come with thee into judgment:
    •   And not for thy manifold wickedness and thy infinite iniquities?
    •   For thou hast taken away the pledge of thy brethren without cause, and stripped them naked of their clothing.
    •   Thou hast not given water to the weary, thou hast withdrawn bread from the hungry.
    •   In the strength of thy arm thou didst possess the land, and being the most mighty thou holdest it.
    •   Thou hast sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless thou hast broken in pieces.
    • 10   Therefore art thou surrounded with snares, and sudden fear troubleth thee.
    • 11   And didst thou think that thou shouldst not see darkness, and that thou shouldst not be covered with the violence of overflowing waters?
    • 12   Dost not thou think that God is higher than heaven, and is elevated above the height of the stars?
    • 13   And thou sayst: What doth God know? and he judgeth as it were through a mist.
    • 14   The clouds are his covert, and he doth not consider our things, and he walketh about the poles of heaven.
    • 15   Dost thou desire to keep the path of ages, which wicked men have spurned?
    • 16   Who were taken away before their time, and a flood hath overthrown their foundation.
    • 17   Who said to God: Depart from us: and looked upon the Almighty as if he could do nothing:
    • 18   Whereas he had filled their houses with good things: whose way of thinking be far from me.
    • 19   The just shall see, and shall rejoice, and the innocent shall laugh them to scorn.
    • 20   Is not their exaltation cut down, and hath not fire devoured the remnants of them?
    • 21   Submit thyself then to him, and be at peace: and thereby thou shalt have the best fruits.
    • 22   Receive the law of his mouth, and lay up his words in thy heart.
    • 23   If thou wilt return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, and shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacle.
    • 24   He shall give for earth flint, and for flint torrents of gold.
    • 25   And the Almighty shall be against thy enemies, and silver shall be heaped together for thee.
    • 26   Then shalt thou abound in delights in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face to God.
    • 27   Thou shalt pray to him, and he will hear thee, and thou shalt pay vows.
    • 28   Thou shalt decree a thing, and it shall come to thee, and light shall shine in thy ways.
    • 29   For he that hath been humbled, shall be in glory: and he that shall bow down his eyes, he shall be saved.
    • 30   The innocent shall be saved, and he shall be saved by the cleanness of his hands.
