to me: 3For the eare proueth wordes, and the throate discerneth meates by the tast. 4Let vs choose vs iudgement, and among vs let vs see what is the better. 5Because Iob sayd: I am iust, and God hath ∷[1] subuerted my iudgement. 6For in iudging me there is a lie: mine arrow is violent without anie sinne. 7What man is there as is Iob, that drinketh skorning as it were water? 8That goeth with them that worke iniquitie, and walketh with impious men? 9For he hath sayd: Man shal not please God ∷[2] although he runne with him 10Therfore ye discrete men heare me, far from God be impietie, and iniquitie from the Omnipotent. 11For he wil render a man his worke, and according to the waies of euerie one he wil recompence them. 12For in verie deed God wil not condemne without cause, neither wil the Omnipotent subuert iudgement. 13What other hath he appointed ouer the earth? or whom hath he sette ouer the world, which he made? 14If he direct his hart to him, he shal drawe his spirit and breath vnto him. 15Al flesh shal faile together, and man shal returne into ashes. 16If then thou haue vnderstanding, heare that is sayd, and harken to the voice of my speach. 17Can he that loueth not iudgement, be healed? and how doest thou so far condemne him, that is iust? 18That sayth to the king, Apostata: that calleth dukes impious: 19Who accepteth not the persones of princes: nor hath knowen the tyrant, when he contended against the poore man: for al are the worke of his handes. 20They shal sodenly die, and at midnight peoples shal be trubled, and shal passe, and take away the violent without hand. 21For his eies are vpon the waies of men, and he considereth al their steppes. 22There is not darkenesse, and there is not shadow of death, that they may be hid there which worke iniquitie. 23For it is no more in mans powre, to come to God into iudgement. 24He shal destroy manie, & innumerable, & shal make other to stand for them 25For he knoweth their workes: and therfore he shal bring night, and they shal be destroyed. 26As impious men he hath stroken them in the place of them that see. 27Who as it were of purpose haue reuolted from him, and would not vnderstand al his waies: 28That they caused the crie of the needie man to come to him, and he heard the voice of the poore. 29For he granting peace, who is there that can condemne? After he shal hide his countenance, who is there that may behold him,
