Job  


36 : 1 Elihu continued:
36 : 2 Bear with me a little longer and I will show you that there is more to be said in God`s behalf.
36 : 3 I get my knowledge from afar; I will ascribe justice to my Maker.
36 : 4 Be assured that my words are not false; one perfect in knowledge is with you.
36 : 5 God is mighty, but does not despise men; he is mighty, and firm in his purpose.
36 : 6 He does not keep the wicked alive but gives the afflicted their rights.
36 : 7 He does not take his eyes off the righteous; he enthrones them with kings and exalts them forever.
36 : 8 But if men are bound in chains, held fast by cords of affliction,
36 : 9 he tells them what they have done-- that they have sinned arrogantly.
36 : 10 He makes them listen to correction and commands them to repent of their evil.
36 : 11 If they obey and serve him, they will spend the rest of their days in prosperity and their years in contentment.
36 : 12 But if they do not listen, they will perish by the sword and die without knowledge.
36 : 13 The godless in heart harbor resentment; even when he fetters them, they do not cry for help.
36 : 14 They die in their youth, among male prostitutes of the shrines.
36 : 15 But those who suffer he delivers in their suffering; he speaks to them in their affliction.
36 : 16 He is wooing you from the jaws of distress to a spacious place free from restriction, to the comfort of your table laden with choice food.
36 : 17 But now you are laden with the judgment due the wicked; judgment and justice have taken hold of you.
36 : 18 Be careful that no one entices you by riches; do not let a large bribe turn you aside.
36 : 19 Would your wealth or even all your mighty efforts sustain you so you would not be in distress?
36 : 20 Do not long for the night, to drag people away from their homes.
36 : 21 Beware of turning to evil, which you seem to prefer to affliction.
36 : 22 God is exalted in his power. Who is a teacher like him?
36 : 23 Who has prescribed his ways for him, or said to him, `You have done wrong`?
36 : 24 Remember to extol his work, which men have praised in song.
36 : 25 All mankind has seen it; men gaze on it from afar.
36 : 26 How great is God--beyond our understanding! The number of his years is past finding out.
36 : 27 He draws up the drops of water, which distill as rain to the streams ;
36 : 28 the clouds pour down their moisture and abundant showers fall on mankind.
36 : 29 Who can understand how he spreads out the clouds, how he thunders from his pavilion?
36 : 30 See how he scatters his lightning about him, bathing the depths of the sea.
36 : 31 This is the way he governs the nations and provides food in abundance.
36 : 32 He fills his hands with lightning and commands it to strike its mark.
36 : 33 His thunder announces the coming storm; even the cattle make known its approach.
