1. Job's Mouth Condemns Him 15:1-13 Job 15:1 Then answered Eliphaz the Temanite, and said,Job 15:2 Should a wise man utter vain knowledge, and fill his belly with the east wind?Job 15:3 Should he reason with unprofitable talk? or with speeches wherewith he can do no good?Job 15:4 Yea, thou castest off fear, and restrainest prayer before God.Job 15:5 For thy mouth uttereth thine iniquity, and thou choosest the tongue of the crafty.Job 15:6 Thine own mouth condemneth thee, and not I: yea, thine own lips testify against thee.Job 15:7 Art thou the first man that was born? or wast thou made before the hills?Job 15:8 Hast thou heard the secret of God? and dost thou restrain wisdom to thyself?Job 15:9 What knowest thou, that we know not? what understandest thou, which is not in us?Job 15:10 With us are both the grayheaded and very aged men, much elder than thy father.Job 15:11 Are the consolations of God small with thee? is there any secret thing with thee?Job 15:12 Why doth thine heart carry thee away? and what do thy eyes wink at,Job 15:13 That thou turnest thy spirit against God, and lettest such words go out of thy mouth? |
