Red-Letter King James Bible 1769 Edition (KJV)

Job 4

1 Eliphaz reproveth Job for want of religion. 7 He teacheth God's judgment to be not for the righteous, but for the wicked. 12 His fearful vision, to humble the excellency of creatures before God.

 4:1 ¶ Then Eliphaz 464 the Temanite 8489 answered 6030 z8799 and said, 559 z8799

 4:2 [If] we assay y5254 z8765 to commune 1697 x5254 with x413 thee, wilt thou be grieved? 3811 z8799 but who x4310 can 3201 z8799 withhold 6113 z8800 himself from speaking? 4405

 4:3 Behold, x2009 thou hast instructed 3256 z8765 many, 7227 and thou hast strengthened 2388 z8762 the weak 7504 hands. 3027

 4:4 Thy words 4405 have upholden 6965 z8686 him that was falling, 3782 z8802 and thou hast strengthened 553 z8762 the feeble 3766 z8802 knees. 1290

 4:5 But x3588 now x6258 it is come 935 z8799 upon x413 thee, and thou faintest; 3811 z8799 it toucheth 5060 z8799 x5704 thee, and thou art troubled. 926 z8735

 4:6 [Is] not x3808 [this] thy fear, 3374 thy confidence, 3690 thy hope, 8615 and the uprightness 8537 of thy ways? 1870

 4:7 Remember, 2142 z8798 I pray thee, x4994 who x4310 [ever] perished, 6 z8804 being innocent? 5355 or where 375 were the righteous 3477 cut off? 3582 z8738

 4:8 Even as x834 I have seen, 7200 z8804 they that plow 2790 z8802 iniquity, 205 and sow 2232 z8802 wickedness, 5999 reap 7114 z8799 the same.

 4:9 By the blast 5397 x4480 of God 433 they perish, 6 z8799 and by the breath 7307 x4480 of his nostrils 639 are they consumed. 3615 z8799

 4:10 The roaring 7581 of the lion, 738 and the voice 6963 of the fierce lion, 7826 and the teeth 8127 of the young lions, 3715 are broken. 5421 z8738

 4:11 The old lion 3918 perisheth 6 z8802 for lack 1097 x4480 of prey, 2964 and the stout lion's 3833 whelps 1121 are scattered abroad. 6504 z8691

 4:12 Now a thing 1697 was secretly brought 1589 z8792 to x413 me, and mine ear 241 received 3947 z8799 a little 8102 thereof. x4480

 4:13 In thoughts 5587 from the visions 2384 x4480 of the night, 3915 when deep sleep 8639 falleth 5307 z8800 on x5921 men, y582 x376

 4:14 Fear 6343 came y7122 z8804 upon x7122 me, and trembling, y7461 x7460 which made all 7230 my bones 6106 to shake. 6342 z8689

 4:15 Then a spirit 7307 passed 2498 z8799 before x5921 my face; 6440 the hair 8185 of my flesh 1320 stood up: 5568 z8762

 4:16 It stood still, 5975 z8799 but I could not x3808 discern 5234 z8686 the form 4758 thereof: an image 8544 [was] before x5048 mine eyes, 5869 [there was] silence, 1827 and I heard 8085 z8799 a voice, 6963 [saying],

 4:17 Shall mortal man 582 be more just y6663 z8799 than God? 433 x6663 x4480 shall a man 1397 be more pure 2891 z8799 than his maker? 6213 z8802 x4480

 4:18 Behold, x2005 he put no trust 539 z8686 x3808 in his servants; 5650 and his angels 4397 he charged 7760 z8799 with folly: 8417

 4:19 How much less 637 [in] them that dwell y7931 z8802 in x7931 houses 1004 of clay, 2563 whose x834 foundation 3247 [is] in the dust, 6083 [which] are crushed 1792 z8762 before 6440 the moth? 6211

 4:20 They are destroyed 3807 z8714 from morning 1242 x4480 to evening: 6153 they perish 6 z8799 for ever 5331 without any x4480 x1097 regarding 7760 z8688 [it].

 4:21 Doth not x3808 their excellency 3499 [which is] in them go away? 5265 z8738 they die, 4191 z8799 even without x3808 wisdom. 2451
