Job - Chapter: 15


15:1	Then answered Eliphaz the Temanite, and said,
15:2	Should a wise man vtter vaine knowledge, and fill his belly with the East winde?
15:3	Should hee reason with vnprofitable talke? or with speeches wherewith he can doe no good?
15:4	Yea thou castest off feare, and restrainest prayer before God.
15:5	For thy mouth vttereth thine iniquitie, and thou choosest the tongue of the craftie.
15:6	Thine owne mouth condemneth thee, and not I: yea thine owne lippes testifie against thee.
15:7	Art thou the first man that was borne? or wast thou made before the hilles?
15:8	Hast thou heard the secret of God? and doest thou restraine wisedome to thy selfe?
15:9	What knowest thou that we know not? what vnderstandest thou, which is not in vs?
15:10	With vs are both the gray headed, and very aged men, much elder then thy father.
15:11	Are the consolations of God small with thee? is there any secret thing with thee?
15:12	Why doeth thine heart carie thee away? and what doe thine eyes winke at,
15:13	That thou turnest thy spirit against God, and lettest such words goe out of thy mouth?
15:14	What is man, that he should be cleane? and he which is borne of a woman, that he should be righteous?
15:15	Beholde, he putteth no trust in his Saints, yea, the heauens are not cleane in his sight.
15:16	How much more abominable and filthie is man, which drinketh iniquitie like water?
15:17	I will shew thee, heare me, and that which I haue seene, I wil declare,
15:18	Which wise men haue tolde from their fathers, and haue not hid it:
15:19	Unto whom alone the earth was giuen, and no stranger passed among them.
15:20	The wicked man trauaileth with paine all his dayes, and the number of yeeres is hidden to the oppressour.
15:21	A dreadfull sound is in his eares; in prosperitie the destroyer shall come vpon him.
15:22	He beleeueth not that he shall returne out of darkenesse, and he is waited for, of the sword.
15:23	He wandereth abroad for bread, saying, Where is it? he knoweth that the day of darkenes is ready at his hand.
15:24	Trouble and anguish shall make him afraid; they shall preuaile against him, as a king ready to the battell.
15:25	For he stretcheth out his hand against God, and strengtheneth himselfe against the Almightie.
15:26	He runneth vpon him, euen on his necke, vpon the thicke bosses of his bucklers:
15:27	Because he couereth his face with his fatnesse, and maketh collops of fat on his flankes.
15:28	And he dwelleth in desolate cities, and in houses which no man inhabiteth, which are ready to become heapes.
15:29	He shall not be rich, neither shall his substance continue, neither shall he prolong the perfection thereof vpon the earth.
15:30	He shall not depart out of darkenesse, the flame shall drie vp his branches, and by the breath of his mouth shall he goe away.
15:31	Let not him that is deceiued, trust in vanitie: for vanitie shalbe his recompence.
15:32	It shall be accomplished before his time, and his branch shall not bee greene.
15:33	He shal shake off his vnripe grape as the Uine, and shall cast off his flowre as the Oliue.
15:34	For the congregation of hypocrites shall be desolate, and fire shall consume the tabernacles of briberie.
15:35	They conceiue mischiefe, and bring forth vanitie, and their belly prepareth deceit.


15:1	Then answered Eliphaz the Temanite, and saide,
15:2	Shal a wise man speake words of ye winde, and fill his bellie with the East winde?
15:3	Shall he dispute with wordes not comely? or with talke that is not profitable?
15:4	Surely thou hast cast off feare, and restrainest prayer before God.
15:5	For thy mouth declareth thine iniquitie, seeing thou hast chosen ye tongue of the crafty.
15:6	Thine owne mouth condemneth thee, and not I, and thy lippes testifie against thee.
15:7	Art thou the first man, that was borne? and wast thou made before the hils?
15:8	Hast thou heard the secret counsell of God, and doest thou restraine wisedome to thee?
15:9	What knowest thou that we knowe not? and vnderstandest that is not in vs?
15:10	With vs are both auncient and very aged men, farre older then thy father.
15:11	Seeme the consolations of God small vnto thee? is this thing strange vnto thee?
15:12	Why doeth thine heart take thee away, and what doe thine eyes meane,
15:13	That thou answerest to God at thy pleasure, and bringest such wordes out of thy mouth?
15:14	What is man, that he should be cleane? and he that is borne of woman, that he shoulde be iust?
15:15	Beholde, he founde no stedfastnesse in his Saintes: yea, the heauens are not cleane in his sight.
15:16	How much more is man abominable, and filthie, which drinketh iniquitie like water?
15:17	I will tell thee: heare me, and I will declare that which I haue seene:
15:18	Which wise men haue tolde, as they haue heard of their fathers, and haue not kept it secret:
15:19	To whome alone the land was giuen and no stranger passed through them.
15:20	The wicked man is continually as one that traueileth of childe, and the nomber of yeeres is hid from the tyrant.
15:21	A sounde of feare is in his eares, and in his prosperitie the destroyer shall come vpon him.
15:22	He beleeueth not to returne out of darknesse: for he seeth the sworde before him.
15:23	He wandreth to and from for bread where he may: he knoweth that the day of darkenesse is prepared at hande.
15:24	Affliction and anguish shall make him afraide: they shall preuaile against him as a King readie to the battell.
15:25	For he hath stretched out his hand against GOD, and made him selfe strong against the Almightie.
15:26	Therefore God shall runne vpon him, euen vpon his necke, and against the most thicke part of his shielde.
15:27	Because he hath couered his face with his fatnesse, and hath colloppes in his flancke.
15:28	Though he dwell in desolate cities, and in houses which no man inhabiteth, but are become heapes,
15:29	He shall not be rich, neither shall his substance continue, neither shall he prolong the perfection thereof in the earth.
15:30	He shall neuer depart out of darkenesse: the flame shall drie vp his branches, and he shall goe away with the breath of his mouth.
15:31	He beleeueth not that he erreth in vanitie: therefore vanitie shalbe his change.
15:32	His branch shall not be greene, but shall be cut off before his day.
15:33	God shall destroy him as the vine her sower grape, and shall cast him off, as the oliue doeth her flowre.
15:34	For the congregation of the hypocrite shalbe desolate, and fire shall deuoure the houses of bribes.
15:35	For they conceiue mischiefe and bring foorth vanitie, and their bellie hath prepared deceite.


15:1	Then answered Eliphas the Themanite, and said:
15:2	Shal a wyse mans answer be the scyence of the wynde, and fil any mans Bely as it were with the wynde of the east?
15:3	Shal he reproue wt a word, that is nothyng worth: and speake the thinges, which can do no good?
15:4	As for shame, thou hast sett it asyde, elles woldest thou not make so many wordes before God:
15:5	but thy wyckednesse teacheth thy mouth, and so thou hast chosen the a craftye tonge.
15:6	Thyne awne mouth condempneth the, and not I: yee, thyne awne lyppes shape an answer agaynst the.
15:7	Art thou the fyrste man, that euer was borne? Or, wast thou made before the hylles?
15:8	hast thou hearde the secrete councell of God, that all wysdome is to lytle for the?
15:9	What knowest thou, that we knowe not? And what vnderstandest thou, but we can the same?
15:10	With vs are both olde and aged men, yee, soch as haue lyued longer then thy father.
15:11	Thynckest thou it a small thynge of the consolacyons of God? with the is a lyenge word.
15:12	Why doth thyne hert so be wytch the? And wherfore wynckest thou wyth thyne eyes,
15:13	that thy mynde is so puft vp agaynst God, and lettest soch wordes go oute of thy mouth?
15:14	What is man, that he shulde be cleane? what hath he (which is borne of a woman) wherby he myght be righteous?
15:15	Behold, he doth not trust hys saynctes: yee, the very heauens are not cleane in hys syght.
15:16	Howe moch more then an abhomynable and vyle man, which drincketh wickednesse lyke water?
15:17	I wyll tell the, heare me: and I wyll shewe the that I haue sene:
15:18	which wyse men haue tolde, and hath not bene hyd from their fathers
15:19	vnto whom onely the earthe was geuen, and no straunger went amonge them.
15:20	The vngodly soroweth all the dayes of hys lyfe as it were a woman with a childe, and the nombre of a tyrauntes yeares is vnknowne.
15:21	A fearfull sounde is euer in hys eares, and when it is peace, yet feareth he destruccyon.
15:22	He beleueth neuer to be delyuered oute of darckenes, for the swearde is alwaye before hys eyes.
15:23	When he goeth forth to get his lyuying, he seeth plainely, that the daye of darcknesse is at hande.
15:24	Sorowe and carefulnesse wyll make hym afrayed, and compasse hym rounde aboute, lyke as it were a kynge with hys hoost ready to the batayll.
15:25	For he hath stretched out hys hande agaynst God, and armed hym selfe agaynst the almyghtye,
15:26	He runneth proudly vpon hym, and with a styff necke fyghteth he agaynst hym:
15:27	where as he couereth hys face with fatnesse, and maketh hys body well lykynge.
15:28	Therfore shall hys dwellynge be in desolate cyties, and in houses which no man inhabyteth, but are become heapes of stones.
15:29	He shall not be riche, nether shall hys substaunce contynue, ner encrease vpon earthe.
15:30	He shall neuer come oute of darcknesse, the flame shall drye vp hys braunches: with the blast of the mouth of God shall he be taken awaye.
15:31	He beleueth not that he is in vanyte, and yet he is out of the waye, and vanyte shalbe hys recompence.
15:32	He shall perysh, afore hys tyme be worne out, and hys braunche shall not be grene.
15:33	He shalbe pluckt of as an vntymely grape from the vyne, & shall lett his floure fall, as the olyue doth.
15:34	For the congregacyyon of ypocrites shalbe desolate and vnfrutefull, and the fyre shall consume the houses of soch as are gredy to receaue giftes.
15:35	He conceaueth trauayle, and beareth vanyte, and theyr bodye bryngeth forth disceate.
