Job 22:4-11

Wycliffe Bible

⁴ Whether he shall dread (thee), and shall he reprove thee, and shall he come with thee into doom, (Shall he fear thee, and shall he rebuke thee, and shall he take thee to court?)

⁵ and not for thy full much malice, and thy wickednesses without number, these pains have fallen justly to thee? (and have not these pains fallen justly upon thee, for thy great malice, and for thy wickednesses without number?)

⁶ For thou hast taken away without cause the wed of thy brethren; and hast spoiled naked men of clothes. (For thou hast taken away thy brother’s pledge without a reason; and thou hast robbed people of their clothes, making them naked.)

⁷ Thou gavest not water to the faint man; and thou withdrewest bread from the hungry man. (Thou gavest no water to the faint; and thou withheldest bread from the hungry.)

⁸ In the strength of thine arm (By the strength of thy arm), thou haddest the land in possession; and thou, most mighty, heldest (onto) it.

⁹ Thou lettest go widows void, or unhelped (Thou lettest widows go away void, or without help); and all-brakest the shoulders of fatherless children.

¹⁰ Therefore thou art now (en)compassed with snares; and sudden(ly) dread troubleth thee. (And so now thou art surrounded with snares; and the unexpected maketh thee afraid/and suddenly thou art full of fear.)

¹¹ And thou guessedest, that thou shouldest not see darknesses; and that thou shouldest not be oppressed with the fierceness of waters flowing. (And thou thinkedest, that thou shouldest not see darkness; and that thou shouldest not be oppressed with the fierceness of flowing waters.)
