And next unto him builded the men of Jericho. And next to them builded Zaccur the son of Imri.

And next unto them repaired Melatiah the Gibeonite, and Jadon the Meronothite, the men of Gibeon, and of Mizpah, unto the throne of the governor on this side the river.

And after him repaired the priests, the men of the plain.

So neither I, nor my brethren, nor my servants, nor the men of the guard which followed me, none of us put off our clothes, saving that every one put them off for washing.

Who came with Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Azariah, Raamiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispereth, Bigvai, Nehum, Baanah. The number, I say, of the men of the people of Israel was this;

The men of Bethlehem and Netophah, an hundred fourscore and eight.

The men of Anathoth, an hundred twenty and eight.

The men of Bethazmaveth, forty and two.

The men of Kirjathjearim, Chephirah, and Beeroth, seven hundred forty and three.

The men of Ramah and Geba, six hundred twenty and one.

The men of Michmas, an hundred and twenty and two.

The men of Bethel and Ai, an hundred twenty and three.

The men of the other Nebo, fifty and two.

And he read therein before the street that was before the water gate from the morning until midday, before the men and the women, and those that could understand; and the ears of all the people were attentive unto the book of the law.

And the people blessed all the men, that willingly offered themselves to dwell at Jerusalem.

All the sons of Perez that dwelt at Jerusalem were four hundred threescore and eight valiant men.

And at that time were some appointed over the chambers for the treasures, for the offerings, for the firstfruits, and for the tithes, to gather into them out of the fields of the cities the portions of the law for the priests and Levites: for Judah rejoiced for the priests and for the Levites that waited.

And I contended with them, and cursed them, and smote certain of them, and plucked off their hair, and made them swear by God, saying, Ye shall not give your daughters unto their sons, nor take their daughters unto your sons, or for yourselves.

In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falleth on men,

Shall mortal man be more just than God? shall a man be more pure than his maker?

Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty:

Is there not an appointed time to man upon earth? are not his days also like the days of an hireling?

What is man, that thou shouldest magnify him? and that thou shouldest set thine heart upon him?

I know it is so of a truth: but how should man be just with God?

Hast thou eyes of flesh? or seest thou as man seeth?

Are thy days as the days of man? are thy years as man's days,

Is it good that he should search you out? or as one man mocketh another, do ye so mock him?

The waters wear the stones: thou washest away the things which grow out of the dust of the earth; and thou destroyest the hope of man.

What is man, that he should be clean? and he which is born of a woman, that he should be righteous?

How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?

How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?

The flood breaketh out from the inhabitant; even the waters forgotten of the foot: they are dried up, they are gone away from men.

Man knoweth not the price thereof; neither is it found in the land of the living.

So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.

When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, then his wrath was kindled.

But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.

Behold, in this thou art not just: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.

In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;

Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction,

He shall pray unto God, and he will be favourable unto him: and he shall see his face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness.

He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;

Which goeth in company with the workers of iniquity, and walketh with wicked men.

Therefore hearken unto me, ye men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness; and from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.

Let men of understanding tell me, and let a wise man hearken unto me.

My desire is that Job may be tried unto the end because of his answers for wicked men.

Remember that thou magnify his work, which men behold.

Every man may see it; man may behold it afar off.

He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work.

Men do therefore fear him: he respecteth not any that are wise of heart.

What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
