Chapter
22
-
Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said,
-
Can a man be profitable unto God, as he that is wise may be profitable unto himself?
-
Is it any pleasure to the Almighty, that thou art righteous? or is it gain to him, that thou makest thy ways perfect?
-
Will he reprove thee for fear of thee? will he enter with thee into judgment?
-
Is not thy wickedness great? and thine iniquities infinite?
-
For thou hast taken a pledge from thy brother for nought, and stripped the naked of their clothing.
-
Thou hast not given water to the weary to drink, and thou hast withholden bread from the hungry.
-
But as for the mighty man, he had the earth; and the honourable man dwelt in it.
-
Thou hast sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken.
-
Therefore snares are round about thee, and sudden fear troubleth thee;
-
Or darkness, that thou canst not see; and abundance of waters cover thee.
-
Is not God in the height of heaven? and behold the height of the stars, how high they are!
-
And thou sayest, How doth God know? can he judge through the dark cloud?
-
Thick clouds are a covering to him, that he seeth not; and he walketh in the circuit of heaven.
-
Hast thou marked the old way which wicked men have trodden?
-
Which were cut down out of time, whose foundation was overflown with a flood:
-
Which said unto God, Depart from us: and what can the Almighty do for them?
-
Yet he filled their houses with good things: but the counsel of the wicked is far from me.
-
The righteous see it, and are glad: and the innocent laugh them to scorn.
-
Whereas our substance is not cut down, but the remnant of them the fire consumeth.
-
Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee.
-
Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart.
-
If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles.
-
Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks.
-
Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defence, and thou shalt have plenty of silver.
-
For then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face unto God.
-
Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee, and thou shalt pay thy vows.
-
Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.
-
When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person.
-
He shall deliver the island of the innocent: and it is delivered by the pureness of thine hands.
