Iob 30

1 Job's honour is turned into extreme contempt. 15 His prosperity into calamity.

 30:1 ¶ But nowe x6258 they that are yonger 6810 3117 then x4480 I, haue mee in derision, 7832 z8804 x5921 whose x834 fathers 1 I would haue disdained 3988 z8804 to haue set 7896 z8800 with x5973 the dogs 3611 of my flocke. 6629

 30:2 Yea x1571 whereto 4100 might the strength 3581 of their hands 3027 [profit] me, in whom x5921 olde age 3624 was perished? 6 z8804

 30:3 For want 2639 and famine 3720 they [were] solitarie: 1565 flying 6207 z8802 into the wildernesse 6723 in former time 570 desolate 7722 and waste: 4875

 30:4 Who cut vp 6998 z8801 mallowes 4408 by x5921 the bushes, 7880 and Iuniper 7574 rootes 8328 [for] their meate. 3899

 30:5 They were driuen foorth 1644 z8792 from x4480 among 1460 [men], (they cried 7321 z8686 after x5921 them, as [after] a thiefe.) 1590

 30:6 To dwell 7931 z8800 in the clifts 6178 of the valleys, 5158 in caues 2356 of the earth, 6083 and in the rockes. 3710

 30:7 Among x996 the bushes 7880 they brayed: 5101 z8799 vnder x8478 the nettles 2738 they were gathered together. 5596 z8792

 30:8 They [were] children 1121 of fooles, 5036 yea x1571 children 1121 of base men: 8034 x1097 they were viler 5217 z8738 then x4480 the earth. 776

 30:9 And now x6258 am x1961 I their song, 5058 yea I am x1961 their by-word. 4405

 30:10 They abhorre 8581 z8765 me, they flee farre 7368 z8804 from x4480 me, and spare 2820 z8804 not x3808 to spit 7536 in my face. 6440 x4480

 30:11 Because x3588 hee hath loosed 6605 z8765 my cord 3499 and afflicted 6031 z8762 me, they haue also let loose 7971 z8765 the bridle 7448 before 6440 x4480 me.

 30:12 Upon x5921 my right 3225 [hand] rise 6965 z8799 the youth, 6526 they push away 7971 z8765 my feete, 7272 and they raise vp 5549 z8799 against x5921 mee the wayes 734 of their destruction. 343

 30:13 They marre 5420 z8804 my path, 5410 they set forward 3276 z8686 my calamitie, 1942 z8675 y1962 they [haue] no x3808 helper. 5826 z8802

 30:14 They came 857 z8799 [vpon me] as a wide 7342 breaking y6556 in x6556 [of waters]: in 8478 the desolation 7722 they rolled y1556 z8701 themselues x1556 [vpon me].

 30:15 Terrours 1091 are turned 2015 z8717 vpon x5921 mee: they pursue 7291 z8799 my soule 5082 as the wind: 7307 and my welfare 3444 passeth away 5674 z8804 as a cloude. 5645

 30:16 And now x6258 my soule 5315 is powred out 8210 z8691 vpon x5921 me: the dayes 3117 of affliction 6040 haue taken hold y270 z8799 vpon x270 me.

 30:17 My bones 6106 are pierced 5365 z8765 in x4480 x5921 mee in the night season: 3915 and my sinewes 6207 z8802 take no rest. 7901 z8799 x3808

 30:18 By the great 7230 force 3581 [of my disease], is my garment 3830 changed: 2664 z8691 it bindeth mee about 247 z8799 as the collar 6310 of my coat. 3801

 30:19 He hath cast 3384 z8689 mee into the myre, 2563 and I am become x4911 like y4911 z8691 dust 6083 and ashes. 665

 30:20 I crie 7768 z8762 vnto x413 thee, and thou doest not x3808 heare 6030 z8799 me: I stand vp, 5975 z8804 and thou regardest 995 z8709 me [not].

 30:21 Thou art become 2015 z8735 cruell 393 to me: with thy strong 6108 hand 3027 thou opposest y7852 z8799 thy selfe against x7852 me.

 30:22 Thou liftest me vp 5375 z8799 to x413 the wind: 7307 thou causest me to ride 7392 z8686 [vpon it], and dissoluest 4127 z8787 my substance. 7738 y8454 z8675 z8762

 30:23 For x3588 I know 3045 z8804 [that] thou wilt bring 7725 z8686 me [to] death, 4194 and [to] the house 1004 appointed 4150 for all x3605 liuing. 2416

 30:24 Howbeit x389 he will not x3808 stretch out 7971 z8799 his hand 3027 to the graue, 1164 though x518 they cry 7769 in his destruction. 6365

 30:25 Did not x3808 I weepe 1058 z8804 for him that was in trouble? 7186 3117 was [not] my soule 5315 grieued 5701 z8804 for the poore? 34

 30:26 When x3588 I looked y6960 z8765 for x6960 good, 2896 then euill 7451 came 935 z8799 vnto mee: and when I waited 3176 z8762 for light, 216 there came 935 z8799 darkenes. 652

 30:27 My bowels 4578 boyled 7570 z8795 and rested 1826 z8804 not: x3808 the dayes 3117 of affliction 6040 preuented 6923 z8765 mee.

 30:28 I went 1980 z8765 mourning 6937 z8802 without x3808 the Sunne: 2535 I stood vp, 6965 z8804 [and] I cried 7768 z8762 in the Congregation. 6951

 30:29 I am x1961 a brother 251 to dragons, 8577 and a companion 7453 to owles. 1323 3284

 30:30 My skinne 5785 is blacke 7835 z8804 vpon x4480 x5921 mee, and my bones 6106 are burnt 2787 z8804 with x4480 heat. 2721

 30:31 My harpe 3658 also is x1961 turned to mourning, 60 and my organe 5748 into the voyce 6963 of them that weepe. 1058 z8802
