Job 34:31-35:16
Job 34:31-35:16
-
31"For has anyone said to God, 'I have borne punishment; I will not offend any more;
-
32teach me what I do not see; if I have done iniquity, I will do it no more'?
-
33Will he then make repayment to suit you, because you reject it? For you must choose, and not I; therefore declare what you know.
-
34Men of understanding will say to me, and the wise man who hears me will say:
-
35'Job speaks without knowledge; his words are without insight.'
-
36Would that Job were tried to the end, because he answers like wicked men.
-
37For he adds rebellion to his sin; he claps his hands among us and multiplies his words against God."
-
1And Elihu answered and said:
-
2"Do you think this to be just? Do you say, 'It is my right before God,'
-
3that you ask, 'What advantage have I? How am I better off than if I had sinned?'
-
4I will answer you and your friends with you.
-
5Look at the heavens, and see; and behold the clouds, which are higher than you.
-
6If you have sinned, what do you accomplish against him? And if your transgressions are multiplied, what do you do to him?
-
7If you are righteous, what do you give to him? Or what does he receive from your hand?
-
8Your wickedness concerns a man like yourself, and your righteousness a son of man.
-
9"Because of the multitude of oppressions people cry out; they call for help because of the arm of the mighty.
-
10But none says, 'Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night,
-
11who teaches us more than the beasts of the earth and makes us wiser than the birds of the heavens?'
-
12There they cry out, but he does not answer, because of the pride of evil men.
-
13Surely God does not hear an empty cry, nor does the Almighty regard it.
-
14How much less when you say that you do not see him, that the case is before him, and you are waiting for him!
-
15And now, because his anger does not punish, and he does not take much note of transgression,
-
16Job opens his mouth in empty talk; he multiplies words without knowledge."
