Глава 15

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