Eliphaz Speaks: Job Has Sinned
1Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered:
2“If one attempts a word with you, will you be impatient?
But who can keep from speaking? # Job 32:18–20
3Surely you have instructed many,
and you have strengthened the weak hands. # Isa 35:3
4Your words have raised up him who was falling, # Heb 12:12
and you have fortified the feeble knees.
5But now it comes upon you, # Job 19:21 and you are weary;
it reaches even you, and you are terrified.
6Is not your reverence your confidence? # Pr 3:26
And the integrity # Job 1:1 of your ways your hope?
7“Remember now, who being innocent ever perished?
Or where were the upright ever wiped out? # Ps 37:25
8Just like I have seen, those who plow iniquity
and sow trouble, reap the same. # Pr 22:8; Gal 6:7–8
9By the breath of God they perish, # Job 15:30; Isa 30:33
and by the blast of His anger they are destroyed.
10The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion,
and the teeth of the young lions are broken. # Job 29:17; Ps 58:6
11The old lion perishes for lack of prey, # Ps 34:10
and the cubs of the lioness are scattered.
12“Now a word was brought to me secretly,
and my ear received a whisper of it. # Job 26:14
13Amid disquieting thoughts from night visions,
when deep sleep # Ge 2:21; 15:12 falls on mortals,
14terror and trembling came to me,
which made all my bones shake. # Hab 3:16
15A breath of wind was passing before my face,
and the hair on my body was standing up.
16It stood still,
but I could not recognize its appearance;
a form was in front of my eyes,
there was stillness, then I heard a voice # 1Ki 19:12 saying:
17‘Can a mortal be more righteous than God? # Job 9:2; 25:4
Can a man be more pure than his maker?
18He does not trust in His servants,
and He charges His angels with error;
19Even more, those who dwell in houses of clay,
whose foundation is in the dust, # Ge 2:7; Job 10:9
who are crushed before the moth.
20They are broken in pieces from morning to evening;
they perish forever # Job 20:7 without anyone regarding it.
21Are not their tent ropes plucked up,
so they die, even without wisdom?’ # Job 36:12
