Chapter 35

1


 

  And Elihu answereth and saith: --  

 

 

--

2


 

  This hast thou reckoned for judgment: Thou hast said -- 'My righteousness [is] more than God's?'  

 

 

--

3


 

  For thou sayest, 'What doth it profit Thee! What do I profit from my sin?'  

 

 

--

4


 

  I return thee words, and thy friends with thee,  

 

 

--

5


 

  Behold attentively the heavens -- and see, And behold the clouds, They have been higher than thou.  

 

 

--

6


 

  If thou hast sinned, what dost thou against Him? And thy transgressions have been multiplied, What dost thou to Him?  

 

 

--

7


 

  If thou hast been righteous, What dost thou give to Him? Or what from thy hand doth He receive?  

 

 

--

8


 

  For a man like thyself [is] thy wickedness, And for a son of man thy righteousness.  

 

 

--

9


 

  Because of the multitude of oppressions They cause to cry out, They cry because of the arm of the mighty.  

 

 

--

10


 

  And none said, 'Where [is] God my maker? Giving songs in the night,  

 

 

--

11


 

  Teaching us more than the beasts of the earth, Yea, than the fowl of the heavens He maketh us wiser.'  

 

 

--

12


 

  There they cry, and He doth not answer, Because of the pride of evil doers.  

 

 

--

13


 

  Surely vanity God doth not hear, And the Mighty doth not behold it.  

 

 

--

14


 

  Yea, though thou sayest thou dost not behold Him, Judgment [is] before Him, and stay for Him.  

 

 

--

15


 

  And, now, because there is not, He hath appointed His anger, And He hath not known in great extremity.  

 

 

--

16


 

  And Job [with] vanity doth open his mouth, Without knowledge words he multiplieth.
