Chap. VIII.
Baldad chargeth Iob to haue spoken, vniustly exhorting him to turne to God,
and so he shal prosper better then hereto fore. 13. shewing that hypocrites
shal not prosper, 20. inferreth (falfly) that God afflicteth not the sincere,
nor helpeth the malignant.
1 Bvt Baldad the Suhite answering, sayd:
2 noteHow long wilt
thou speake such thinges, and shal the spirit of the word
of thy mouth be multiplied? note
3 Why doth God supplant iugement?
or doth the Omnipotent subuert that which is iust?
4 Although thy children haue sinned to him, and he hath
leaft them in the hand of their iniquitie:
5 Yet if thou wilt
arise early to God, and wilt besech the Omnipotent:
6 If
thou wilt walke cleane & vpright, he wil forthwith awake
vnto thee, and wil make the habitation of thy iustice peaceable:
7 In so much, that if thy former thinges haue bene litle,
thy later thinges may be multipled excedingly.
8 For aske the
old generation, and search diligently the memorie of the fathers.
9 (For we are but as yesterday, and are ignorant note that
our daies vpon the earth are as a shadow.)
10 And they shal
teach thee: they shal speake to thee, and from their hart shal
vtter wordes.
11 Can the rush be greene without moysture? or
a seggie place grow without water?
12 When it is yet in his
flowre, and is not plucked with the hand, it witereth before
al hearbes:
13 Euen so the waies of al, that forget God, and
the hope of the hypocrite shal perish:
14 His folie shal not
please him, and his confidence as the spiders webbe.
15 He shal
leane vpon his house, and it shal not stand: he shal stay it vp,
and it shal not rise:
16 He semeth moystened before the sunne
come, and in his rising his blossome shal goe forth.
17 Vpon a
heape of rockes his rootes shal be thicke, and among stones
he shal abide.
18 If he swallow him vp out of his place, he wil
denie him, & wil say: I know thee not.
19 For this is the ioy of
of his way, that others may spring againe of the earth.
20 God wil not reiect the simple, nor reach his hand to the
malignanr.
21 Vntil thy mouth be filled with laughter, and
-- --
thylippes with iubilation.
22 They that hate thee, shal be clothed
with confusion: and the tabernacle of the impious
shal not stand.
