Job 33
Elihu continues...
1 Job should on the contrary, hear my words and hearken to my spoken-words:
2 I will open my mouth, and my tongue will speak from the palate of my mouth.
3 the utterances of my lips are from a pure knowledge and I speak from upright mind/heart:
4 Both the main-leader (el) and the overpowering/burly one (shadday) were created and lived by the breath of the SPIRIT (of God) -
5 because things that are positioned and arranged in order can restore faces.
6 however, things like a wink from the main-leader (el) can sometimes be like a sticky-clay from his mouth.
7 and at a time of terror (like this), even a saddle (on horse back) could be burdensome.
8 It is said, ears are for hearing, both the sound and the words:
9 If you are clean from the revolt (of Adam) you should also be innocent from your own perversity:
10 if you find out, there is any movement/motion from the enemy, he could be contriving/calculating something.
11 so, you should guard your feet on the path like you put them in a stock.
12 As mortal-men are multiplying/increasing (rabah), so, the Extremely Mighty God (Eloahh eloahh) should respond by JUSTIFYING them;
13 I will respond by contending with all the spoken words:
14 one: how the main-leader (el) was fenced in, and two: how he spoke/rehearsed.
15 Either in a dream, when mortal-man sleep-deeply in his bedchamber in the night - or in a vision, when he falls into trance/daytime-nap- -
16 - - a sealed/authenticated transmitted-messages may be revealed into the ears of mortal-men.
17 - the deed of Adam as a valiant-man could have been covered up, if he had turned away from his pride/arrogance;
18 - and all the souls of the living beings could have been withheld from crossing over into the pit like things sent away/a shot-missile:
19 - we would have been convinced/corrected (yakach) by contest from those with stong-bones that are resilient/continually but they are in pain on beds:
20 - when the longing of the living souls for food are even toward contaminated edibles,
21 - as though their sanity has come to an end, till their bones are seen, mirrored on flesh,
22 and Whenever living-being dies, their souls are drawn to pit.
23 if there should exist ONE person, who will boldly declare Adam upright out of thousands of angels that mocked him,
24 we can say, those who are descending into the pit will be shown mercy and find a cover-up/ransom to redeem/retrieve them.
25 so that, their flesh can be fresher/rejuvenated like in their childhood and things of concealed/unknown days will be restored.
26 One person that will burn incense/pray and clamour to the Extremely Mighty God (Eloahh eloah), for HIS Face to be pleased with mortal-men and to see them turned back to righteousness (tsedaqah).
27 it is said, if upright man is fenced in and still trespass; even a mortal-man will equally act perversely.
28 so, to ransom living beings from crossing over to the pit, and for souls to see light;
29 at this moment/occasion, the main-leader (el) who will carry out this thing will be like three-valiant-men in him.
30 because if the souls of the living beings are restored, it is like shining light into the pit.
31 hearken to me, Job; devise in silence and listen as I speak/rehearse.
32 words exist to be spoken that will restore you, if you delight in being justified (tsadak).
33 devise in silence and listen to thousand folds of wisdom.
