Job  


36 : 1 Then Elihu continued and said,
36 : 2 Wait for me a little, and I will show you That there is yet more to be said in God`s behalf.
36 : 3 I will fetch my knowledge from afar, And I will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.
36 : 4 For truly my words are not false; One who is perfect in knowledge is with you.
36 : 5 Behold, God is mighty but does not despise any; He is mighty in strength of understanding.
36 : 6 He does not keep the wicked alive, But gives justice to the afflicted.
36 : 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.
36 : 8 And if they are bound in fetters, And are caught in the cords of affliction,
36 : 9 Then He declares to them their work And their transgressions, that they have magnified themselves.
36 : 10 He opens their ear to instruction, And commands that they return from evil.
36 : 11 If they hear and serve Him, They will end their days in prosperity And their years in pleasures.
36 : 12 But if they do not hear, they shall perish by the sword And they will die without knowledge.
36 : 13 But the godless in heart lay up anger; They do not cry for help when He binds them.
36 : 14 They die in youth, And their life perishes among the cult prostitutes.
36 : 15 He delivers the afflicted in their affliction, And opens their ear in time of oppression.
36 : 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.
36 : 17 But you were full of judgment on the wicked; Judgment and justice take hold of you.
36 : 18 Beware that wrath does not entice you to scoffing; And do not let the greatness of the ransom turn you aside.
36 : 19 Will your riches keep you from distress, Or all the forces of your strength?
36 : 20 Do not long for the night, When people vanish in their place.
36 : 21 Be careful, do not turn to evil, For you have preferred this to affliction.
36 : 22 Behold, God is exalted in His power; Who is a teacher like Him?
36 : 23 Who has appointed Him His way, And who has said, `You have done wrong`?
36 : 24 Remember that you should exalt His work, Of which men have sung.
36 : 25 All men have seen it; Man beholds from afar.
36 : 26 Behold, God is exalted, and we do not know Him; The number of His years is unsearchable.
36 : 27 For He draws up the drops of water, They distill rain from the mist,
36 : 28 Which the clouds pour down, They drip upon man abundantly.
36 : 29 Can anyone understand the spreading of the clouds, The thundering of His pavilion?
36 : 30 Behold, He spreads His lightning about Him, And He covers the depths of the sea.
36 : 31 For by these He judges peoples; He gives food in abundance.
36 : 32 He covers His hands with the lightning, And commands it to strike the mark.
36 : 33 Its noise declares His presence; The cattle also, concerning what is coming up.
