Translated from Hebrew and Greek with AI, then checked for clarity and fidelity.

1. Eliphaz the Temanite replied, saying,
2. If anyone attempts a word with you, will you weary? But who can restrain words?
3. See, you have disciplined many, and strengthened weak hands.
4. Your words have raised up those who stumble, and you have strengthened buckling knees.
5. But now it comes to you, and you faint; it reaches you, and you are dismayed.
6. Isn't your fear your confidence, and the integrity of your ways your hope?
7. Remember now—who, being innocent, has perished? Where were the upright cut off?
8. As I have seen, those who plow iniquity and sow trouble reap it.
9. God's breath destroys them, and the blast of his anger consumes them.
10. The lion's roar, the fierce lion's cry, and the young lions' teeth are broken.
11. The lion perishes from lack of prey, and the cubs of the lioness scatter.
12. A matter was brought to me by stealth, and my ear received a little of it.
13. In thoughts from visions of night, when deep sleep falls upon men.
14. Dread befell me, and trembling terrified all my bones.
15. A spirit passed over my face; the hair of my flesh bristled.
16. It stood, but I did not recognize its appearance—a likeness before my eyes—in silence, and I heard a voice.
17. Can a mortal be more righteous than God? Can a man be purer than his maker?
18. Behold, he does not trust his servants, and he charges his angels with folly.
19. How much less those who dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, whom a moth crushes!
20. From morning to evening they are crushed, perishing forever without anyone taking note.
21. Isn't their cord pulled up within them? They die without wisdom.
