(YLT)
Job
22
:
1
And Eliphaz the Temanite answereth and saith: --
(YLT)
Job
22
:
2
To God is a man profitable, Because a wise man to himself is profitable?
(YLT)
Job
22
:
3
Is it a delight to the Mighty One That thou art righteous? is it gain, That thou makest perfect thy ways?
(YLT)
Job
22
:
4
Because of thy reverence Doth He reason with thee? He entereth with thee into judgment:
(YLT)
Job
22
:
5
Is not thy wickedness abundant? And there is no end to thine iniquities.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
6
For thou takest a pledge of thy brother for nought, And the garments of the naked Thou dost strip off.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
7
Thou causest not the weary to drink water, And from the hungry thou withholdest bread.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
8
As to the man of arm -- he hath the earth, And the accepted of face -- he dwelleth in it.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
9
Widows thou hast sent away empty, And the arms of the fatherless are bruised.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
10
Therefore round about thee are snares, And trouble thee doth fear suddenly.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
11
Or darkness -- thou dost not see, And abundance of waters doth cover thee.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
12
Is not God high in heaven? And see the summit of the stars, That they are high.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
13
And thou hast said, 'What -- hath God known? Through thickness doth He judge?
(YLT)
Job
22
:
14
Thick clouds are a secret place to Him, And He doth not see;' And the circle of the heavens He walketh habitually,
(YLT)
Job
22
:
15
The path of the age dost thou observe, That men of iniquity have trodden?
(YLT)
Job
22
:
16
Who have been cut down unexpectedly, A flood is poured out on their foundation.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
17
Those saying to God, 'Turn aside from us,' And what doth the Mighty One to them?
(YLT)
Job
22
:
18
And he hath filled their houses with good: (And the counsel of the wicked Hath been far from me.)
(YLT)
Job
22
:
19
See do the righteous and they rejoice, And the innocent mocketh at them,
(YLT)
Job
22
:
20
'Surely our substance hath not been cut off, And their excellency hath fire consumed.'
(YLT)
Job
22
:
21
Acquaint thyself, I pray thee, with Him, And be at peace, Thereby thine increase is good.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
22
Receive, I pray thee, from His mouth a law, And set His sayings in thy heart.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
23
If thou dost return unto the Mighty Thou art built up, Thou puttest iniquity far from thy tents.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
24
So as to set on the dust a defence, And on a rock of the valleys a covering.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
25
And the Mighty hath been thy defence, And silver is strength to thee.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
26
For then on the Mighty thou delightest thyself, And dost lift up unto God thy face,
(YLT)
Job
22
:
27
Thou dost make supplication unto Him, And He doth hear thee, And thy vows thou completest.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
28
And thou decreest a saying, And it is established to thee, And on thy ways hath light shone.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
29
For they have made low, And thou sayest, 'Lift up.' And the bowed down of eyes he saveth.
(YLT)
Job
22
:
30
He delivereth the not innocent, Yea, he hath been delivered By the cleanness of thy hands.
