- 1Wherefore, Job, I pray thee, hear my speeches, and hearken to all my words.וְֽאוּלָ֗ם שְׁמַֽע נָ֣א אִיּ֣וֹב מִלָּ֑י וְֽכָל דְּבָרַ֥י הַאֲזִֽינָה
- 2Behold, now I have opened my mouth, my tongue hath spoken in my mouth.הִנֵּה נָ֭א פָּתַ֣חְתִּי פִ֑י דִּבְּרָ֖ה לְשׁוֹנִ֣י בְחִכִּֽי
- 3My words shall be of the uprightness of my heart: and my lips shall utter knowledge clearly.יֹֽשֶׁר לִבִּ֥י אֲמָרָ֑י וְדַ֥עַת שְׂ֝פָתַ֗י בָּר֥וּר מִלֵּֽלוּ
- 4The Spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life.רֽוּחַ אֵ֥ל עָשָׂ֑תְנִי וְנִשְׁמַ֖ת שַׁדַּ֣י תְּחַיֵּֽנִי
- 5If thou canst answer me, set thy words in order before me, stand up.אִם תּוּכַ֥ל הֲשִׁיבֵ֑נִי עֶרְכָ֥ה לְ֝פָנַ֗י הִתְיַצָּֽבָה
- 6Behold, I am according to thy wish in God's stead: I also am formed out of the clay.הֵן אֲנִ֣י כְפִ֣יךָ לָאֵ֑ל מֵ֝חֹ֗מֶר קֹרַ֥צְתִּי גַם אָֽנִי
- 7Behold, my terror shall not make thee afraid, neither shall my hand be heavy upon thee.הִנֵּ֣ה אֵ֭מָתִי לֹ֣א תְבַעֲתֶ֑ךָּ וְ֝אַכְפִּ֗י עָלֶ֥יךָ לֹא יִכְבָּֽד
- 8Surely thou hast spoken in mine hearing, and I have heard the voice of thy words, saying,אַ֭ךְ אָמַ֣רְתָּ בְאָזְנָ֑י וְק֖וֹל מִלִּ֣ין אֶשְׁמָֽע
- 9I am clean without transgression, I am innocent; neither is there iniquity in me.זַ֥ךְ אֲנִ֗י בְּֽלִ֫י פָ֥שַׁע חַ֥ף אָנֹכִ֑י וְלֹ֖א עָוֺ֣ן
- 10Behold, he findeth occasions against me, he counteth me for his enemy,הֵ֣ן תְּ֭נוּאוֹת עָלַ֣י יִמְצָ֑א יַחְשְׁבֵ֖נִי לְאוֹיֵ֣ב
- 11He putteth my feet in the stocks, he marketh all my paths.יָשֵׂ֣ם בַּסַּ֣ד רַגְלָ֑י יִ֝שְׁמֹ֗ר כָּל אָרְחֹתָֽי
- 12Behold, in this thou art not just: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.הֶן זֹ֣את לֹא צָדַ֣קְתָּ אֶעֱנֶ֑ךָּ כִּֽי יִרְבֶּ֥ה אֱ֝ל֗וֹהַ מֵאֱנֽוֹשׁ
- 13Why dost thou strive against him? for he giveth not account of any of his matters.מַ֭דּוּעַ אֵלָ֣יו רִיב֑וֹתָ כִּ֥י כָל דְּ֝בָרָ֗יו לֹ֣א יַעֲנֶֽה
- 14For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not.כִּֽי בְאַחַ֥ת יְדַבֶּר אֵ֑ל וּ֝בִשְׁתַּ֗יִם לֹ֣א יְשׁוּרֶֽנָּה
- 15In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;בַּחֲל֤וֹם חֶזְי֬וֹן לַ֗יְלָה בִּנְפֹ֣ל תַּ֭רְדֵּמָה עַל אֲנָשִׁ֑ים בִּ֝תְנוּמ֗וֹת עֲלֵ֣י מִשְׁכָּֽב
- 16Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction,אָ֣ז יִ֭גְלֶה אֹ֣זֶן אֲנָשִׁ֑ים וּבְמֹ֖סָרָ֣ם יַחְתֹּֽם
- 17That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.לְ֭הָסִיר אָדָ֣ם מַעֲשֶׂ֑ה וְגֵוָ֖ה מִגֶּ֣בֶר יְכַסֶּֽה
- 18He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.יַחְשֹׂ֣ךְ נַ֭פְשׁוֹ מִנִּי שָׁ֑חַת וְ֝חַיָּת֗וֹ מֵעֲבֹ֥ר בַּשָּֽׁלַח
- 19He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong pain:וְהוּכַ֣ח בְּ֭מַכְאוֹב עַל מִשְׁכָּב֑וֹ וריב וְר֖וֹב עֲצָמָ֣יו אֵתָֽן
- 20So that his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty meat.וְזִֽהֲמַ֣תּוּ חַיָּת֣וֹ לָ֑חֶם וְ֝נַפְשׁ֗וֹ מַאֲכַ֥ל תַּאֲוָֽה
- 21His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out.יִ֣כֶל בְּשָׂר֣וֹ מֵרֹ֑אִי ושפי וְשֻׁפּ֥וּ עַ֝צְמוֹתָ֗יו לֹ֣א רֻאּֽוּ
- 22Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers.וַתִּקְרַ֣ב לַשַּׁ֣חַת נַפְשׁ֑וֹ וְ֝חַיָּת֗וֹ לַֽמְמִתִֽים
- 23If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man his uprightness:אִם יֵ֤שׁ עָלָ֨יו מַלְאָ֗ךְ מֵלִ֗יץ אֶחָ֥ד מִנִּי אָ֑לֶף לְהַגִּ֖יד לְאָדָ֣ם יָשְׁרֽוֹ
- 24Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.וַיְחֻנֶּ֗נּוּ וַיֹּ֗אמֶר פְּ֭דָעֵהוּ מֵרֶ֥דֶת שָׁ֗חַת מָצָ֥אתִי כֹֽפֶר
- 25His flesh shall be fresher than a child's: he shall return to the days of his youth:רֻֽטֲפַ֣שׁ בְּשָׂר֣וֹ מִנֹּ֑עַר יָ֝שׁ֗וּב לִימֵ֥י עֲלוּמָֽיו
- 26He shall pray unto God, and he will be favourable unto him: and he shall see his face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness.יֶעְתַּ֤ר אֶל אֱל֨וֹהַּ וַיִּרְצֵ֗הוּ וַיַּ֣רְא פָּ֭נָיו בִּתְרוּעָ֑ה וַיָּ֥שֶׁב לֶ֝אֱנ֗וֹשׁ צִדְקָתֽוֹ
- 27He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;יָשֹׁ֤ר עַל אֲנָשִׁ֗ים וַיֹּ֗אמֶר חָ֭טָאתִי וְיָשָׁ֥ר הֶעֱוֵ֗יתִי וְלֹא שָׁ֥וָה
- 28He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light.פָּדָ֣ה נפשי נַ֭פְשׁוֹ מֵעֲבֹ֣ר בַּשָּׁ֑חַת וחיתי וְ֝חַיָּתוֹ בָּא֥וֹר תִּרְאֶֽה
- 29Lo, all these things worketh God oftentimes with man,הֶן כָּל אֵ֭לֶּה יִפְעַל אֵ֑ל פַּעֲמַ֖יִם שָׁל֣וֹשׁ עִם גָּֽבֶר
- 30To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living.לְהָשִׁ֣יב נַ֭פְשׁוֹ מִנִּי שָׁ֑חַת לֵ֝א֗וֹר בְּא֣וֹר הַֽחַיִּים
- 31Mark well, O Job, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I will speak.הַקְשֵׁ֖ב אִיּ֥וֹב שְֽׁמַֽע הַ֝חֲרֵ֗שׁ וְאָנֹכִ֥י אֲדַבֵּֽר
- 32If thou hast any thing to say, answer me: speak, for I desire to justify thee.אִם יֵשׁ מִלִּ֥ין הֲשִׁיבֵ֑נִי דַּ֝בֵּ֗ר כִּֽי חָפַ֥צְתִּי צַדְּקֶֽךָּ
- 33If not, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I shall teach thee wisdom.אִם אַ֭יִן אַתָּ֥ה שְֽׁמַֽע הַ֝חֲרֵ֗שׁ וַאֲאַלֶּפְךָ֥ חָכְמָֽה

Hebrew verse gematria
YHWSA calculates these totals directly from every consonant in the tagged Hebrew source line using the Carlo Suarès letter-number system; vowel points and cantillation marks do not add values. The totals are not reverse-mapped from English. A matching number is a comparison to investigate, not proof that two passages mean the same thing.
