The Latin Vulgate VUL
King James Version w/ Apocrypha KJVA
1 respondens autem Eliphaz Themanites dixit
1
Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said ,
2 si coeperimus loqui tibi forsitan moleste accipias sed conceptum sermonem tenere quis possit
2
If we assay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieved ? but who can withhold himself from speaking?
3 ecce docuisti multos et manus lassas roborasti
3
Behold, thou hast instructed many, and thou hast strengthened the weak hands.
4 vacillantes confirmaverunt sermones tui et genua trementia confortasti
4
Thy words have upholden him that was falling , and thou hast strengthened the feeble knees.
5 nunc autem venit super te plaga et defecisti tetigit te et conturbatus es
5
But now it is come upon thee, and thou faintest ; it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled .
6 timor tuus fortitudo tua patientia tua et perfectio viarum tuarum
6
Is not this thy fear, thy confidence, thy hope, and the uprightness of thy ways?
7 recordare obsecro te quis umquam innocens perierit aut quando recti deleti sint
7
Remember , I pray thee, who ever perished , being innocent? or where were the righteous cut off ?
8 quin potius vidi eos qui operantur iniquitatem et seminant dolores et metunt eos
8
Even as I have seen , they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same.
9 flante Deo perisse et spiritu irae eius esse consumptos
9
By the blast of God they perish , and by the breath of his nostrils are they consumed .
10 rugitus leonis et vox leaenae et dentes catulorum leonum contriti sunt
10
The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion, and the teeth of the young lions, are broken .
11 tigris periit eo quod non haberet praedam et catuli leonis dissipati sunt
11
The old lion perisheth for lack of prey, and the stout lion's whelps are scattered abroad .
12 porro ad me dictum est verbum absconditum et quasi furtive suscepit auris mea venas susurri eius
12
Now a thing was secretly brought to me, and mine ear received a little thereof.
13 in horrore visionis nocturnae quando solet sopor occupare homines
13
In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falleth on men,
14 pavor tenuit me et tremor et omnia ossa mea perterrita sunt
14
Fear came upon me, and trembling, which made all my bones to shake .
15 et cum spiritus me praesente transiret inhorruerunt pili carnis meae
15
Then a spirit passed before my face; the hair of my flesh stood up :
16 stetit quidam cuius non agnoscebam vultum imago coram oculis meis et vocem quasi aurae lenis audivi
16
It stood still , but I could not discern the form thereof: an image was before mine eyes, there was silence, and I heard a voice, saying,
17 numquid homo Dei conparatione iustificabitur aut factore suo purior erit vir
17
Shall mortal man be more just than God? shall a man be more pure than his maker ?
18 ecce qui serviunt ei non sunt stabiles et in angelis suis repperit pravitatem
18
Behold, he put no trust in his servants; and his angels he charged with folly:
19 quanto magis hii qui habitant domos luteas qui terrenum habent fundamentum consumentur velut a tinea
19
How much less in them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, which are crushed before the moth?
20 de mane usque ad vesperum succidentur et quia nullus intellegit in aeternum peribunt
20
They are destroyed from morning to evening: they perish for ever without any regarding it.
21 qui autem reliqui fuerint auferentur ex eis morientur et non in sapientia
21
Doth not their excellency which is in them go away ? they die , even without wisdom.
