1Then Eliphaz the Temanite responded,
2'If one ventures a word with you, will you become impatient? But who can refrain from speaking?
3Behold, you have taught many, And you have strengthened weak hands.
4Your words have helped the stumbling to stand, And you have strengthened feeble knees.
5But now it comes to you, and you are impatient; It touches you, and you are horrified.

1Then Eliphaz the Temanite replied:
2Should anyone try to speak with you when you are exhausted? Yet who can keep from speaking?
3Indeed, you have instructed many and have strengthened weak hands.
4Your words have steadied the one who was stumbling and braced the knees that were buckling.
5But now that this has happened to you, you have become exhausted. It strikes you, and you are dismayed.
