Job 35

1

Then Elihu continued and said,

2

"Do you think this is according to justice? Do you say, "My righteousness is more than God's'?

3

"For you say, " What advantage will it be to You? What profit will I have, more than if I had sinned?'

4

"I will answer you, And your friends with you.

5

" Look at the heavens and see; And behold the cloudsthey are higher than you.

6

"If you have sinned, what do you accomplish against Him? And if your transgressions are many, what do you do to Him?

7

"If you are righteous, what do you give to Him, Or what does He receive from your hand?

8

"Your wickedness is for a man like yourself, And your righteousness is for a son of man.

9

"Because of the multitude of oppressions they cry out; They cry for help because of the arm of the mighty.

10

"But no one says, "Where is God my Maker, Who gives songs in the night,

11

Who teaches us more than the beasts of the earth And makes us wiser than the birds of the heavens?'

12

"There they cry out, but He does not answer Because of the pride of evil men.

13

"Surely God will not listen to an empty cry, Nor will the Almighty regard it.

14

"How much less when you say you do not behold Him, The case is before Him, and you must wait for Him!

15

"And now, because He has not visited in His anger, Nor has He acknowledged transgression well,

16

So Job opens his mouth emptily; He multiplies words without knowledge.' 36

Job 36

1

Then Elihu continued and said,

2

"Wait for me a little, and I will show you That there is yet more to be said in God's behalf.

3

"I will fetch my knowledge from afar, And I will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.

4

"For truly my words are not false; One who is perfect in knowledge is with you.

5

"Behold, God is mighty but does not despise any; He is mighty in strength of understanding.

6

"He does not keep the wicked alive, But gives justice to the afflicted.

7

"He does not withdraw His eyes from the righteous; But with kings on the throne He has seated them forever, and they are exalted.

8

"And if they are bound in fetters, And are caught in the cords of affliction,

9

Then He declares to them their work And their transgressions, that they have magnified themselves.

10

" He opens their ear to instruction, And commands that they return from evil.

11

"If they hear and serve Him, They will end their days in prosperity And their years in pleasures.

12

"But if they do not hear, they shall perish by the sword And they will die without knowledge.

13

"But the godless in heart lay up anger; They do not cry for help when He binds them.

14

" They die in youth, And their life perishes among the cult prostitutes.

15

"He delivers the afflicted in their affliction, And opens their ear in time of oppression.

16

"Then indeed, He enticed you from the mouth of distress, Instead of it, a broad place with no constraint; And that which was set on your table was full of fatness.

17

"But you were full of judgment on the wicked; Judgment and justice take hold of you.

18

"Beware that wrath does not entice you to scoffing; And do not let the greatness of the ransom turn you aside.

19

"Will your riches keep you from distress, Or all the forces of your strength?

20

"Do not long for the night, When people vanish in their place.

21

"Be careful, do not turn to evil, For you have preferred this to affliction.

22

"Behold, God is exalted in His power; Who is a teacher like Him?

23

"Who has appointed Him His way, And who has said, " You have done wrong'?

24

"Remember that you should exalt His work, Of which men have sung.

25

"All men have seen it; Man beholds from afar.

26

"Behold, God is exalted, and we do not know Him; The number of His years is unsearchable.

27

"For He draws up the drops of water, They distill rain from the mist,

28

Which the clouds pour down, They drip upon man abundantly.

29

"Can anyone understand the spreading of the clouds, The thundering of His pavilion?

30

"Behold, He spreads His lightning about Him, And He covers the depths of the sea.

31

"For by these He judges peoples; He gives food in abundance.

32

"He covers His hands with the lightning, And commands it to strike the mark.

33

"Its noise declares His presence; The cattle also, concerning what is coming up. 37
