1
Then Eliphaz the Temanite replied:
1
וַ֭יַּעַן
אֱלִיפַ֥ז
הַֽתֵּימָנִ֗י
וַיֹּאמַֽר׃
2
Should anyone try to speak with you when you are exhausted? Yet who can keep from speaking?
2
הֲנִסָּ֬ה
דָבָ֣ר
אֵלֶ֣יךָ
תִּלְאֶ֑ה
וַעְצֹ֥ר
בְּ֝מִלִּ֗ין
מִ֣י
יוּכָֽל׃
3
Indeed, you have instructed many and have strengthened weak hands.
3
הִ֭נֵּה
יִסַּ֣רְתָּ
רַבִּ֑ים
וְיָדַ֖יִם
רָפ֣וֹת
תְּחַזֵּֽק׃
4
Your words have steadied the one who was stumbling and braced the knees that were buckling.
4
כּ֭וֹשֵׁל
יְקִימ֣וּן
מִלֶּ֑יךָ
וּבִרְכַּ֖יִם
כֹּרְע֣וֹת
תְּאַמֵּֽץ׃
5
But now that this has happened to you, you have become exhausted. It strikes you, and you are dismayed.
5
כִּ֤י
עַתָּ֨ה ׀
תָּב֣וֹא
אֵלֶ֣יךָ
וַתֵּ֑לֶא
תִּגַּ֥ע
עָ֝דֶ֗יךָ
וַתִּבָּהֵֽל׃
6
Isn't your piety your confidence, and the integrity of your life your hope?
6
הֲלֹ֣א
יִ֭רְאָתְךָ
כִּסְלָתֶ֑ךָ
תִּ֝קְוָתְךָ֗
וְתֹ֣ם
דְּרָכֶֽיךָ׃
7
Consider: Who has perished when he was innocent? Where have the honest been destroyed?
7
זְכָר־
נָ֗א
מִ֤י
ה֣וּא
נָקִ֣י
אָבָ֑ד
וְ֝אֵיפֹ֗ה
יְשָׁרִ֥ים
נִכְחָֽדוּ׃
8
In my experience, those who plow injustice and those who sow trouble reap the same.
8
כַּאֲשֶׁ֣ר
רָ֭אִיתִי
חֹ֣רְשֵׁי
אָ֑וֶן
וְזֹרְעֵ֖י
עָמָ֣ל
יִקְצְרֻֽהוּ׃
9
They perish at a single blast from God and come to an end by the breath of his nostrils.
9
מִנִּשְׁמַ֣ת
אֱל֣וֹהַ
יֹאבֵ֑דוּ
וּמֵר֖וּחַ
אַפּ֣וֹ
יִכְלֽוּ׃
10
The lion may roar and the fierce lion growl, but the teeth of young lions are broken.
10
שַׁאֲגַ֣ת
אַ֭רְיֵה
וְק֣וֹל
שָׁ֑חַל
וְשִׁנֵּ֖י
כְפִירִ֣ים
נִתָּֽעוּ׃
11
The strong lion dies if it catches no prey, and the cubs of the lioness are scattered.
11
לַ֭יִשׁ
אֹבֵ֣ד
מִבְּלִי־
טָ֑רֶף
וּבְנֵ֥י
לָ֝בִ֗יא
יִתְפָּרָֽדוּ׃
12
A word was brought to me in secret; my ears caught a whisper of it.
12
וְ֭אֵלַי
דָּבָ֣ר
יְגֻנָּ֑ב
וַתִּקַּ֥ח
אָ֝זְנִ֗י
שֵׁ֣מֶץ
מֶֽנְהֽוּ׃
13
Among unsettling thoughts from visions in the night, when deep sleep comes over men,
13
בִּ֭שְׂעִפִּים
מֵחֶזְיֹנ֣וֹת
לָ֑יְלָה
בִּנְפֹ֥ל
תַּ֝רְדֵּמָ֗ה
עַל־
אֲנָשִֽׁים׃
14
fear and trembling came over me and made all my bones shake.
14
פַּ֣חַד
קְ֭רָאַנִי
וּרְעָדָ֑ה
וְרֹ֖ב
עַצְמוֹתַ֣י
הִפְחִֽיד׃
15
I felt a draft on my face, and the hair on my body stood up.
15
וְ֭רוּחַ
עַל־
פָּנַ֣י
יַחֲלֹ֑ף
תְּ֝סַמֵּ֗ר
שַֽׂעֲרַ֥ת
בְּשָׂרִֽי׃
16
A figure stood there, but I could not recognize its appearance; a form loomed before my eyes. I heard a whispering voice:
16
יַעֲמֹ֤ד ׀
וְֽלֹא־
אַכִּ֬יר
מַרְאֵ֗הוּ
תְּ֭מוּנָה
לְנֶ֣גֶד
עֵינָ֑י
דְּמָמָ֖ה
וָק֣וֹל
אֶשְׁמָֽע׃
17
"Can a mortal be righteous before God? Can a man be more pure than his Maker?"
17
הַֽ֭אֱנוֹשׁ
מֵאֱל֣וֹהַ
יִצְדָּ֑ק
אִ֥ם
מֵ֝עֹשֵׂ֗הוּ
יִטְהַר־
גָּֽבֶר׃
18
If God puts no trust in his servants and he charges his angels with foolishness,
18
הֵ֣ן
בַּ֭עֲבָדָיו
לֹ֣א
יַאֲמִ֑ין
וּ֝בְמַלְאָכָ֗יו
יָשִׂ֥ים
תָּהֳלָֽה׃
19
how much more those who dwell in clay houses, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed like a moth!
19
אַ֤ף ׀
שֹׁכְנֵ֬י
בָֽתֵּי־
חֹ֗מֶר
אֲשֶׁר־
בֶּעָפָ֥ר
יְסוֹדָ֑ם

לִפְנֵי־
עָֽשׁ׃
20
They are smashed to pieces from dawn to dusk; they perish forever while no one notices.
20
מִבֹּ֣קֶר
לָעֶ֣רֶב
יֻכַּ֑תּוּ
מִבְּלִ֥י
מֵ֝שִׂ֗ים
לָנֶ֥צַח
יֹאבֵֽדוּ׃
21
Are their tent cords not pulled up? They die without wisdom.
21
הֲלֹא־
נִסַּ֣ע
יִתְרָ֣ם
בָּ֑ם
יָ֝מ֗וּתוּ
וְלֹ֣א
בְחָכְמָֽה׃
