Job 31
Job eighth reaction continues...
1 Do you understand why a covenant with a bride/virgin should be cut/made before all eyes?
2 since the top-most place above is for the Extremely Mighty God (Eloahh eloah), who are those in elevated places? And what is our heritage, if our lot/portion, is with the overpowering/burly one (shadday)?
3 why is misfortune strange/alien to us? Why are they exerting themselves on practicing an injustice to us?
4 have you seen someone in that way and did you reckon/record something about his steps/strides?
5 they walk around on their feet into self-destruct, because their senses/faculty of perception is on fraud/deception.
6 Just as a pair of scale will weigh things, the Extremely Mighty God (Eloahh eloahh) knows people with amazing-innocence for HIS Justification.
7 - because you could have walked all along with your heart/mind adhered to HIS way; and both your eyes and steps later bend away, so that, the palm of your hands got stained.
8 If what you sow is well rooted down, even the offsprings/progeny of another person will eat from it.
9 if the heart of your wife is lured/enticed, she is like a gate-way - for neighbours who had laid ambush for you.
10 and a wife that is grinding meal for another person - has submitted to/bent knees for another man; -
11 - and that is a plan/plot unto perversity before a Judge/Magistrate:
12 Fire is a doom, if it devours the produce/crops that has got rooted down.
13 there should be a contention somewhere, in case, both male slave and female slave reject/detest a verdict.
14 Who is the main-Leader (Ela) that will rise up to oversee what is being done and restore things?
15 who is the One that will produce (food) for the belly, and prepare for those that will be created in the womb?
16 because, there are some, that will deny the eyes of the weak-people, their pleasure, and bring widow to an end;
17 - there are some that will devour the orphans/fatherless, by eating their pieces of bread;
18 - but, there is a one, that will guide the youth to grow things for the belly of their fathers and mothers.
19 - -again, there are some that will see that the raiment and garment of the needy perish,
20 - -and there are some that will bless and warmed up a lamb that its fleece/wool has been extracted.
21 - again, there are some that will see orphans/fatherless at the gate, waving their hands for seriousghelp, but --
22 - - would burst the reeds/stalks on their upper back/shoulder-blade with arm/elbow, so that, it will fall down from their shoulders.
23 therefore, this main leader is the one who CAN bear (the burden) of sudden alarm and misfortune (of others).
24 it is said, though gold is as blemishes/stains, it is like a loin/flank they can put their trust/confidence upon.
25 and if their hands found it in abundant, so vast/enormous (kabbiyr) is the force of men that will rejoice,
26 they will walk around in the light of the moon, to give praise for seeing this precious/costly thing.
27 If your heart is lured/enticed, your weapon can be as much hidden and secret as the edge of your hand.
28 It is a perversity for the main-leader (el) - to be accusatory/criminal and deny/feign things about the ONE above/at the top -
29 - because, some may be found rejoicing in stirring up evil and hate those who are in calamity.
30 - some may demand souls to take an oath/swear, so that they will give the palate of their mouth to commit sin;
31 it is said, the adult should give/supply flesh to those in his tent till they are satisfied:
32 Strangers will lodge overnight outside, though the gate in their path is opened wide:
33 the crime/revolt of Adam (the first man) would have been covered up, but he was someone who concealed/hid his perversity in his bosom - -
34 - -the contempt from the family/class of species who were at the gate could have been silenced. However, was he afraid of being terrified/shattered by those abundant multitudes, as he went out?
35 - it was written that a certain man, also listened to the overpowering/burly one (shadday), and the respose to the controversy in the book was that, he was given a mark/label. (Gen 4:15)
36 So, for our shoulders, to be lifted up (squared) and to wear/tie our crown, -
37 - the commander/governor should boldly declare that everybody should come near in their numbers, even in regular-steps/strides, -
38 - unto the soil, even to weep and cry out altogether on the furrows/ridges;
39 that the masters/the owners who blow away the strength of souls will eat their money;
40 so that, thistles/thorns will come out for them instead of wheat and instead of barley, stinking weeds. This end the spoken-words of Job.
