13 (14) Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Tziyon; for the time to favor her, the mo’ed (set time, appointed time) has come.

18 (19) This shall be written for a dor acharon (future generation); and the people which shall be created shall praise Hashem.
19 (20) For He hath looked down from the height of His Kodesh; from Shomayim did Hashem behold Eretz;

21 (22) To declare the Shem Hashem in Tziyon, and His tehillah (praise) in Yerushalayim;
22 (23) When the peoples are gathered together in assembly, and the mamlachot (kingdoms), to serve Hashem.

25 (26) Of old hast Thou laid the foundation of ha’aretz; and Shomayim is the ma’aseh (work) of Thy hands.
26 (27) They shall perish, but Thou shalt remain; and all of them shall wear out like a beged (garment); like a vesture shalt Thou change them, and they shall be changed;
27 (28) But Thou art the same, and Thy shanot (years) shall have no end.
28 (29) The children of Thy avadim shall dwell, and their zera shall be established before Thee.
6 But Iyov answered and said,
2 Oh that my ka’as (vexation) were throughly weighed, and my calamity laid in the scales together!
3 For now it would be heavier than the chol of the seas; therefore my words are impetuous.
4 For the khitzim (arrows) of Shaddai are in me, the poison whereof drinketh my ruach; the terrors of Eloah do set themselves in array against me.
5 Doth the pereh (wild donkey) bray when he hath desheh? Or loweth the ox over his fodder?

7 The things that my nefesh refused to touch are like my loathsome lechem.
8 Who will grant that I might have my she’elah (request); oh that Eloah would grant me my tikveh!
9 Even that it would please Eloah to crush me; that He would let loose His yad, and cut me off!
10 Then should I yet have nechamah (consolation); yea, I would exult in chilah (pain); let him not spare; for I have not concealed the imrei Kadosh (words of the Holy One).
11 What is my koach, that I should wait? And what is mine end, that I should make patient my nefesh?
12 Is my koach the koach of avanim? Or is my basar bronze?
13 Is it that my help is not within me? And is tushiyyah (success) driven from me?
7 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach with his talmidim went away to the lake, and a great multitude from the Galil and also from Yehudah followed Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
8 And from Yerushalayim and from Idumea and from the other side of the Yarden and from around Tzor-Tzidon area, a great multitude [followed], hearing everything that he was doing, and they came to Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach.
9 And he said to his talmidim that a sirah (boat) should stand ready for him, lest the multitude might crush him.
10 For he had brought refuah to many, with the result that as many as had afflictions pressed in on him in order to touch him.
11 And the ruchot hatemeiot (unclean spirits), whenever they saw Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, were falling before him and were crying out, saying, You are the Ben HaElohim!
12 And he sternly rebuked them, lest they should make him known.
