CHAP. XV.
1 Eliphaz reproueth Iob of impiety in iustifying himselfe. 17 He proueth by Tradition the vnquietnes of wicked men.
1Then answered Eliphaz the Temanite, and said,
2Should a wise man vtter vaine knowledge, and fill his belly with the East winde?2
3Should hee reason with vnprofitable talke? or with speeches wherewith he can doe no good?
4Yea thou castest off feare, and restrainest prayer before God.4
5For thy mouth vttereth thine iniquitie, and thou choosest the tongue of the craftie.5
6Thine owne mouth condemneth thee, and not I: yea thine owne lippes testifie against thee.
7Art thou the first man that was borne? or wast thou made before the hilles?
8Hast thou heard the secret of God? and doest thou restraine wisedome to thy selfe?8
9What knowest thou that we know not? what vnderstandest thou, which is not in vs?
10With vs are both the gray headed, and very aged men, much elder then thy father.
11Are the consolations of God small with thee? is there any secret thing with thee?
12Why doeth thine heart carie thee away? and what doe thine eyes winke at,
13That thou turnest thy spirit against God, and lettest such words goe out of thy mouth?
14What is man, that he should be cleane? and he which is borne of a woman, that he should be righteous?14
15Beholde, he putteth no trust in his Saints, yea, the heauens are not cleane in his sight.15
16How much more abominable and filthie is man, which drinketh iniquitie like water?
17I will shew thee, heare me, and that which I haue seene, I wil declare,
18Which wise men haue tolde from their fathers, and haue not hid it:
19Unto whom alone the earth was giuen, and no stranger passed among them.
21A dreadfull sound is in his eares; in prosperitie the destroyer shall come vpon him.21
22He beleeueth not that he shall returne out of darkenesse, and he is waited for, of the sword.
25For he stretcheth out his hand against God, and strengtheneth himselfe against the Almightie.
26He runneth vpon him, euen on his necke, vpon the thicke bosses of his bucklers:
27Because he couereth his face with his fatnesse, and maketh collops of fat on his flankes.
31Let not him that is deceiued, trust in vanitie: for vanitie shalbe his recompence.
32It shall be accomplished before his time, and his branch shall not bee greene.32
33He shal shake off his vnripe grape as the Uine, and shall cast off his flowre as the Oliue.
35They conceiue mischiefe, and bring forth vanitie, and their belly prepareth deceit.35
