1 -Then Eliphaz the Temanite replied:
2 -“Does a wise man answer with empty counsel or fill his belly with the hot east wind?
3 -Should he argue with useless words or speeches that serve no purpose?
4 -But you even undermine the fear of God and hinder meditation before Him.
5 -For your iniquity instructs your mouth, and you choose the language of the crafty.
6 -Your own mouth, not mine, condemns you; your own lips testify against you.
7 -Were you the first man ever born? Were you brought forth before the hills?
8 -Do you listen in on the council of God or limit wisdom to yourself?
9 -What do you know that we do not? What do you understand that is not clear to us?
10 -Both the gray-haired and the aged are on our side—men much older than your father.
11 -Are the consolations of God not enough for you, even words spoken gently to you?
12 -Why has your heart carried you away, and why do your eyes flash,
13 -as you turn your spirit against God and pour such words from your mouth?
14 -What is man, that he should be pure, or one born of woman, that he should be righteous?
15 -If God puts no trust in His holy ones, if even the heavens are not pure in His eyes,
16 -how much less man, who is vile and corrupt, who drinks injustice like water?
17 -Listen to me and I will inform you. I will describe what I have seen,
18 -what was declared by wise men and was not concealed from their fathers,
19 -to whom alone the land was given when no foreigner passed among them.
20 -A wicked man writhes in pain all his days; only a few years are reserved for the ruthless.
21 -Sounds of terror fill his ears; in his prosperity the destroyer attacks him.
22 -He despairs of his return from darkness; he is marked for the sword.
23 -He wanders about as food for vultures; he knows the day of darkness is at hand.
24 -Distress and anguish terrify him, overwhelming him like a king poised to attack.
25 -For he has stretched out his hand against God and has vaunted himself against the Almighty,
26 -rushing headlong at Him with a thick, studded shield.
27 -Though his face is covered with fat and his waistline bulges with flesh,
28 -he will dwell in ruined cities, in abandoned houses destined to become rubble.
29 -He will no longer be rich; his wealth will not endure. His possessions will not overspread the land.
30 -He will not escape from the darkness; the flame will wither his shoots, and the breath of God’s mouth will carry him away.
31 -Let him not deceive himself with trust in emptiness, for emptiness will be his reward.
32 -It will be paid in full before his time, and his branch will not flourish.
33 -He will be like a vine stripped of its unripe grapes, like an olive tree that sheds its blossoms.
34 -For the company of the godless will be barren, and fire will consume the tents of bribery.
35 -They conceive trouble and give birth to evil; their womb is pregnant with deceit.”
(Berean Standard Bible)
