Job  


35 : 1 And Elihu answered and said:
35 : 2 Do you think this to be just?Do you say,It is my right before God,
35 : 3 that you ask,What advantage have I?How am I better off than if I had sinned?
35 : 4 I will answer youandyour friends with you.
35 : 5 Look at the heavens, and see;and behold the clouds, which are higher than you.
35 : 6 If you have sinned,what do you accomplish against him?And if your transgressions are multiplied, what do you do to him?
35 : 7 If you are righteous, what do you give to him?Or what does he receive from your hand?
35 : 8 Your wickedness concerns a man like yourself,and your righteousnessa son of man.
35 : 9 Because of the multitude ofoppressions peoplecry out;they call for help because of the arm ofthe mighty.
35 : 10 But none says,Where is God myMaker,who givessongs in the night,
35 : 11 who teaches usmore than the beasts of the earthand makes us wiser than the birds of the heavens?
35 : 12 There theycry out, but he does not answer,because of the pride of evil men.
35 : 13 Surely God does not hear an empty cry,nor does the Almighty regard it.
35 : 14 How much less when you say that youdo not see him,that the case is before him, and you arewaiting for him!
35 : 15 And now, becausehis anger does not punish,and he does not take much note of transgression,
35 : 16 Job opens his mouth in empty talk;hemultiplies wordswithout knowledge.
