1	But Job answered# and said# ,
			2	Hear# diligently# my speech, and let this be your consolations.
			3	Suffer# me that I may speak# ; and after that I have spoken# , mock on# .
			4	As for me, is my complaint to man? and if it were so , why should not my spirit be troubled# ? [troubled: Heb. shortened?]
			5	Mark# me, and be astonished# , and lay# your hand upon your mouth. [Mark...: Heb. Look unto me]
			6	Even when I remember# I am afraid# , and trembling taketh hold on# my flesh.
			7	Wherefore do the wicked live# , become old# , yea, are mighty# in power?
			8	Their seed is established# in their sight with them, and their offspring before their eyes.
			9	Their houses are safe from fear, neither is the rod of God upon them. [safe...: Heb. peace from]
			10	Their bull gendereth# , and faileth# not; their cow calveth# , and casteth not her calf# .
			11	They send forth# their little ones like a flock, and their children dance# .
			12	They take# the timbrel and harp, and rejoice# at the sound of the organ.
			13	They spend# # # # their days in wealth, and in a moment go down# # # # to the grave. [in wealth: or, in mirth]
			14	Therefore they say# unto God, Depart# from us; for we desire# not the knowledge of thy ways.
			15	What is the Almighty, that we should serve# him? and what profit# should we have, if we pray# unto him?
			16	Lo, their good is not in their hand: the counsel of the wicked is far# from me.
			17	How oft is the candle of the wicked put out# ! and how oft cometh# their destruction upon them! God distributeth# sorrows in his anger. [candle: or, lamp]
			18	They are as stubble before the wind, and as chaff that the storm carrieth away# . [carrieth: Heb. stealeth]
			19	God layeth up# his iniquity for his children: he rewardeth# him, and he shall know# it . [his iniquity: that is, the punishment of his iniquity]
			20	His eyes shall see# his destruction, and he shall drink# of the wrath of the Almighty.
			21	For what pleasure hath he in his house after him, when the number of his months is cut off in the midst# ?
			22	Shall any teach# God knowledge? seeing he judgeth# those that are high# .
			23	One dieth# in his full strength, being wholly at ease and quiet. [his...: Heb. his very, or, the strength of, his perfection]
			24	His breasts are full# of milk, and his bones are moistened# with marrow. [breasts: or, milk pails]
			25	And another dieth# in the bitterness of his soul, and never eateth# with pleasure.
			26	They shall lie down# alike in the dust, and the worms shall cover# them.
			27	Behold, I know# your thoughts, and the devices which ye wrongfully imagine# against me.
			28	For ye say# , Where is the house of the prince? and where are the dwelling places of the wicked? [the dwelling...: Heb. the tent of the tabernacles]
			29	Have ye not asked# them that go# by the way? and do ye not know# their tokens,
			30	That the wicked is reserved# to the day of destruction? they shall be brought forth# to the day of wrath. [wrath: Heb. wraths]
			31	Who shall declare# his way to his face? and who shall repay# him what he hath done# ?
			32	Yet shall he be brought# to the grave, and shall remain# in the tomb. [grave: Heb. graves] [remain...: Heb. watch in the heap]
			33	The clods of the valley shall be sweet# unto him, and every man shall draw# after him, as there are innumerable before him.
			34	How then comfort# ye me in vain, seeing in your answers there remaineth# falsehood? [falsehood: Heb. transgression?]
