Iyov 36:7-15 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

7. He withdraweth not His eyes from the tzaddik, but with melachim are they on the kisse; yea, He doth establish them lanetzach (forever), and they are exalted.

8. And if they be bound in chains, and be held fast in chevlei oni (cords of affliction),

9. Then He showeth them their work, and their peysha'im that they have done arrogantly.

10. He openeth also their ozen to musar (discipline), and commandeth that they make teshuvah and turn from evil.

11. If they obey and serve Him, they shall spend their yamim in tov (prosperity), and their shanim in contentment.

12. But if they obey not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without da'as.

13. But the chanefei lev (irreligious in heart, hypocrites) incur wrath; they do not cry for help when He bindeth them.

14. They die in youth, their nefesh among the kedeshim (cult male prostitutes, youthful lusts).

15. He delivereth the oni in his affliction, and openeth their ears in oppression.
