18:032:018 For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me.
18:032:019 Behold, my belly is as wine which hath
no vent; it is ready to
burst
like new bottles.
18:032:020 I will speak, that I may be refreshed:
I will open my lips and
answer.
18:032:021 Let me not, I pray you, accept any man’s
person, neither let
me
give flattering titles unto man.
18:032:022 For I know not to give flattering titles;
in so doing my maker
would
soon take me away.
18:033:001 Wherefore, Job, I pray thee, hear my speeches,
and hearken to
all
my words.
18:033:002 Behold, now I have opened my mouth, my
tongue hath spoken in
my
mouth.
18:033:003 My words shall be of the uprightness of
my heart: and my lips
shall
utter knowledge clearly.
18:033:004 The spirit of God hath made me, and the
breath of the Almighty
hath
given me life.
18:033:005 If thou canst answer me, set thy words
in order before me,
stand
up.
18:033:006 Behold, I am according to thy wish in God’s
stead: I also am
formed
out of the clay.
18:033:007 Behold, my terror shall not make thee afraid,
neither shall my
hand
be heavy upon thee.
18:033:008 Surely thou hast spoken in mine hearing,
and I have heard the
voice
of thy words, saying,
18:033:009 I am clean without transgression, I am
innocent; neither is
there
iniquity in me.
18:033:010 Behold, he findeth occasions against me,
he counteth me for
his
enemy,
18:033:011 He putteth my feet in the stocks, he marketh all my paths.
18:033:012 Behold, in this thou art not just:
I will answer thee, that
God
is greater than man.
18:033:013 Why dost thou strive against him? for he
giveth not account of
any
of his matters.
18:033:014 For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not.
18:033:015 In a dream, in a vision of the night, when
deep sleep falleth
upon
men, in slumberings upon the bed;
18:033:016 Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth
their
instruction,
18:033:017 That he may withdraw man from his purpose,
and hide pride from
man.
18:033:018 He keepeth back his soul from the pit,
and his life from
perishing
by the sword.
18:033:019 He is chastened also with pain upon his
bed, and the multitude
of
his bones with strong pain:
18:033:020 So that his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty meat.
18:033:021 His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot
be seen; and his
bones
that were not seen stick out.
18:033:022 Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave,
and his life to the
destroyers.
