4:1 | Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said, |
4:2 | If we assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieved? but who can withhold himself from speaking? |
4:3 | Behold, thou hast instructed many, and thou hast strengthened the weak hands. |
4:4 | Thy words have upholden him that was falling, and thou hast strengthened the feeble knees. |
4:5 | But now it is come upon thee, and thou faintest; it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled. |
4:6 | Is not this thy fear, thy confidence, thy hope, and the uprightness of thy ways? |
4:7 | Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent? or where were the righteous cut off? |
4:8 | Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same. |
4:9 | By the blast of God they perish, and by the breath of his nostrils are they consumed. |
4:10 | The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion, and the teeth of the young lions, are broken. |

4:12 | Now a thing was secretly brought to me, and mine ear received a little thereof. |
4:13 | In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falleth on men, |
4:14 | Fear came upon me, and trembling, which made all my bones to shake. |
4:15 | Then a spirit passed before my face; the hair of my flesh stood up: |
4:16 | It stood still, but I could not discern the form thereof: an image was before mine eyes, there was silence, and I heard a voice, saying, |
4:17 | Shall mortal man be more just than God? shall a man be more pure than his maker? |
4:18 | Behold, he put no trust in his servants; and his angels he charged with folly: |
4:19 | How much less in them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, which are crushed before the moth? |
4:19 | 何況那住在土房、根基在塵土裡、被蠹蟲所毀壞的人呢。 |
4:19 | 何况那住在土房,根基在尘土里,被蠹虫所毁坏的人呢。 |
gen:2:7 | And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. |
gen:3:19 | In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return. |
job:10:9 | Remember, I beseech thee, that thou hast made me as the clay; and wilt thou bring me into dust again? |
job:13:28 | And he, as a rotten thing, consumeth, as a garment that is moth eaten. |
