1
Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said:
1
וַ֭יַּעַן
אֱלִיפַ֥ז
הַֽתֵּמָנִ֗י
וַיֹּאמַֽר׃
2
“Can a man be profitable to God, Though he who is wise may be profitable to himself?
2
הַלְאֵ֥ל
יִסְכָּן־
גָּ֑בֶר
כִּֽי־
יִסְכֹּ֖ן
עָלֵ֣ימוֹ
מַשְׂכִּֽיל׃
3
Is it
any pleasure to the Almighty that you are righteous? Or
is it
gain
to Him
that you make your ways blameless?
3
הַחֵ֣פֶץ
לְ֭שַׁדַּי
כִּ֣י
תִצְדָּ֑ק
וְאִם־
בֶּ֝֗צַע
כִּֽי־
תַתֵּ֥ם
דְּרָכֶֽיךָ׃
4
“Is it because of your fear of Him that He corrects you, And enters into judgment with you?
4
הֲֽ֭מִיִּרְאָ֣תְךָ
יֹכִיחֶ֑ךָ
יָב֥וֹא
עִ֝מְּךָ֗
בַּמִּשְׁפָּֽט׃
5
Is
not your wickedness great, And your iniquity without end?
5
הֲלֹ֣א
רָעָֽתְךָ֣
רַבָּ֑ה
וְאֵֽין־
קֵ֝֗ץ
לַעֲוֺנֹתֶֽיךָ׃
6
For you have taken pledges from your brother for no reason, And stripped the naked of their clothing.
6
כִּֽי־
תַחְבֹּ֣ל
אַחֶ֣יךָ
חִנָּ֑ם
וּבִגְדֵ֖י
עֲרוּמִּ֣ים
תַּפְשִֽׁיט׃
7
You have not given the weary water to drink, And you have withheld bread from the hungry.
7
לֹא־
מַ֭יִם
עָיֵ֣ף
תַּשְׁקֶ֑ה
וּ֝מֵרָעֵ֗ב
תִּֽמְנַֽע־
לָֽחֶם׃
8
But the mighty man possessed the land, And the honorable man dwelt in it.
8
וְאִ֣ישׁ
זְ֭רוֹעַ
ל֣וֹ
הָאָ֑רֶץ
וּנְשׂ֥וּא
פָ֝נִ֗ים

בָּֽהּ׃
9
You have sent widows away empty, And the strength of the fatherless was crushed.
9
אַ֭לְמָנוֹת
שִׁלַּ֣חְתָּ
רֵיקָ֑ם
וּזְרֹע֖וֹת
יְתֹמִ֣ים

10
Therefore snares
are
all around you, And sudden fear troubles you,
10
עַל־
כֵּ֭ן
סְבִיבוֹתֶ֣יךָ
פַחִ֑ים
וִֽ֝יבַהֶלְךָ

11
Or darkness
so that
you cannot see; And an abundance of water covers you.
11

12
“Is not God in the height of heaven? And see the highest stars, how lofty they are!
12
הֲֽלֹא־
אֱ֭לוֹהַּ
גֹּ֣בַהּ
שָׁמָ֑יִם
וּרְאֵ֤ה

13
And you say, ‘What does God know? Can He judge through the deep darkness?
13
וְֽ֭אָמַרְתָּ
מַה־
יָּ֣דַֽע
אֵ֑ל
הַבְעַ֖ד

14
Thick clouds cover Him, so that He cannot see, And He walks above the circle of heaven.’

15
Will you keep to the old way Which wicked men have trod,
15
הַאֹ֣רַח
עוֹלָ֣ם
תִּשְׁמֹ֑ר
אֲשֶׁ֖ר
דָּרְכ֣וּ

16
Who were cut down before their time, Whose foundations were swept away by a flood?
16
אֲשֶֽׁר־
קֻמְּט֥וּ
וְלֹא־
עֵ֑ת
נָ֝הָ֗ר

17
They said to God, ‘Depart from us! What can the Almighty do to them?’
17

לָ֭אֵל
ס֣וּר
מִמֶּ֑נּוּ
וּמַה־

18
Yet He filled their houses with good
things;
But the counsel of the wicked is far from me.
18

19
“The righteous see
it
and are glad, And the innocent laugh at them:
19
יִרְא֣וּ
צַדִּיקִ֣ים
וְיִשְׂמָ֑חוּ
וְ֝נָקִ֗י

20
‘Surely our adversaries are cut down, And the fire consumes their remnant.’
20
אִם־

21
“Now acquaint yourself with Him, and be at peace; Thereby good will come to you.
21
הַסְכֶּן־
נָ֣א

וּשְׁלם
בָּ֝הֶ֗ם
תְּֽבוֹאַתְךָ֥

22
Receive, please, instruction from His mouth, And lay up His words in your heart.
22
קַח־
נָ֣א
מִפִּ֣יו
תּוֹרָ֑ה
וְשִׂ֥ים
אֲ֝מָרָ֗יו
בִּלְבָבֶֽךָ׃
23
If you return to the Almighty, you will be built up; You will remove iniquity far from your tents.
23
אִם־
תָּשׁ֣וּב
עַד־
שַׁ֭דַּי
תִּבָּנֶ֑ה
תַּרְחִ֥יק
עַ֝וְלָ֗ה
מֵאָהֳלֶֽךָ׃
24
Then you will lay your gold in the dust, And the
gold
of Ophir among the stones of the brooks.
24
וְשִׁית־
עַל־
עָפָ֥ר
בָּ֑צֶר
וּבְצ֖וּר
נְחָלִ֣ים
אוֹפִֽיר׃
25
Yes, the Almighty will be your gold And your precious silver;
25
וְהָיָ֣ה
שַׁדַּ֣י
בְּצָרֶ֑יךָ
וְכֶ֖סֶף
תּוֹעָפ֣וֹת
לָֽךְ׃
26
For then you will have your delight in the Almighty, And lift up your face to God.
26
כִּי־
אָ֭ז
עַל־
שַׁדַּ֣י
תִּתְעַנָּ֑ג
וְתִשָּׂ֖א
אֶל־
אֱל֣וֹהַּ
פָּנֶֽיךָ׃
27
You will make your prayer to Him, He will hear you, And you will pay your vows.
27
תַּעְתִּ֣יר
אֵ֭לָיו
וְיִשְׁמָעֶ֑ךָּ
וּנְדָרֶ֥יךָ
תְשַׁלֵּֽם׃
28
You will also declare a thing, And it will be established for you; So light will shine on your ways.
28
וְֽתִגְזַר־
א֭וֹמֶר
וְיָ֣קָם
לָ֑ךְ
וְעַל־

29
When they cast
you
down, and you say, ‘Exaltation
will come!
’ Then He will save the humble
person.
29
כִּֽי־
הִ֭שְׁפִּילוּ
וַתֹּ֣אמֶר
גֵּוָ֑ה

30
He will
even
deliver one who is not innocent; Yes, he will be delivered by the purity of your hands.”
30
יְֽמַלֵּ֥ט
