Chapter 35

1


 

  Moreover Elihu answered and said,  

 

 

-

2


 

  Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more than łGod's?  

 

 

-

3


 

  For thou hast asked of what profit it is unto thee: what do I gain more than if I had sinned?  

 

 

-

4


 

  I will reply to thee in words, and to thy companions with thee.  

 

 

-

5


 

  Look unto the heavens and see; and survey the skies: they are higher than thou.  

 

 

-

6


 

  If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him? If thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him?  

 

 

-

7


 

  If thou be righteous, what givest thou to him? or what doth he receive of thy hand?  

 

 

-

8


 

  Thy wickedness [may affect] a man as thou [art], and thy righteousness a son of man.  

 

 

-

9


 

  By reason of the multitude of oppressions they cry; they cry out by reason of the arm of the mighty:  

 

 

-

10


 

  But none saith, Where is +God my Maker, who giveth songs in the night,  

 

 

-

11


 

  Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowl of the heavens?  

 

 

-

12


 

  There they cry, and he answereth not, because of the pride of evil men.  

 

 

-

13


 

  Surely łGod will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it.  

 

 

-

14


 

  Although thou sayest thou dost not see him, judgment is before him, therefore wait for him.  

 

 

-

15


 

  But now, because he hath not visited in his anger, doth not [Job] know [his] great arrogancy?  

 

 

-

16


 

  For Job hath opened his mouth in vanity, and made words abundant without knowledge.
