1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered:
2 “If someone should attempt a word with you, will you be impatient?But who can refrain from speaking?
3 Look, you have instructed many;you have strengthened feeble hands.
4 Your words have supported those who stumbled,and you have strengthened the knees that gave way.
5 But now the same thing comes to you, and you are discouraged;it strikes you, and you are terrified.
6 Is not your piety your confidence,and your blameless ways your hope?
