But who can withhold himself from speaking? 3Behold, thou hast instructed many, And thou hast strengthened the weak hands. 4Thy words have upholden him that was falling, And thou hast made firm the feeble knees. 5But now it is come unto thee, and thou faintest; It toucheth thee, and thou art troubled. 6Is not thy fear of God thy confidence, Andthe integrity of thy ways thy hope? 7Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent? Or where were the upright cut off? 8According as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, And sow trouble, reap the same. 9By the breath of God they perish, And by the blast of his anger are they consumed. 10The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion, And the teeth of the young lions, are broken. 11The old lion perisheth for lack of prey, And the whelps of the lioness are scattered abroad. 12Now a thing was secretly brought to me, And mine ear received a whisper thereof. 13In thoughts from the visions of the night, When deep sleep falleth on men, 14Fear came upon me, and trembling, Which made all my bones to shake. 15Then a spirit passed before my face; The hair of my flesh stood up. 16It stood still, but I could not discern the appearance thereof; A form was before mine eyes: There wassilence, and I heard a voice, saying, 17Shall mortal man be more just than God? Shall a man be more pure than his Maker? 18Behold, he putteth no trust in his servants; And his angels he chargeth with folly: 19How much more them that dwell in houses of clay, Whose foundation is in the dust, Who are crushed before the moth! 20Betwixt morning and evening they are destroyed: They perish for ever without any regarding it. 21Is not their tent-cord plucked up within them? They die, and that without wisdom. ‹Previous chapterJob 3Next chapterJob 5›Similar passagesBy tradition and source labelFind similarCompare selectedCompare with similarAsk Deep ThoughtSelect passages to search for parallels.VersionsJob 4 across 9 versionsShow all 9WEB - World English BibleKJV - King James VersionASV - American Standard VersionDarby - Darby BibleYLT - Young's Literal TranslationWebster - Webster BibleGeneva - Geneva BibleDouay - Douay-Rheims ChallonerRV1909 - Reina-Valera 1909Tap any verse to select it, then compare selected passages or ask Deep Thought.
