Chapter 35

1


 

  Moreover Eliu spoke these words :  

 

 

-

2


 

  Doth thy thought seem right to thee, that thou shouldst say : I am more just than God?  

 

 

-

3


 

  For thou saidst : That which is right doth not please thee : or what will it profit thee if I sin?  

 

 

-

4


 

  Therefore I will answer thy words, and thy friends with thee.  

 

 

-

5


 

  Look up to heaven and see, and behold the sky, that it is higher than thee.  

 

 

-

6


 

  If thou sin, what shalt thou hurt him? and if thy iniquities be multiplied, what shalt thou do against him?  

 

 

-

7


 

  And if thou do justly, what shalt thou give him, or what shall he receive of thy hand?  

 

 

-

8


 

  Thy wickedness may hurt a man that is like thee : and thy justice may help the son of man.  

 

 

-

9


 

  By reason of the multitude of oppressions they shall cry out : and shall wail for the violence of the arm of tyrants.  

 

 

-

10


 

  And he hath not said : Where is God, who made me, who hath given songs in the night?  

 

 

-

11


 

  Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and instructeth us more than the fowls of the air.  

 

 

-

12


 

  There shall they cry, and he will not hear, because of the pride of evil men.  

 

 

-

13


 

  God therefore will not hear in vain, and the Almighty will look into the causes of every one.  

 

 

-

14


 

  Yea when thou shalt say : He considereth not : be judged before him, and expect him.  

 

 

-

15


 

  For he doth not now bring on his fury, neither doth he revenge wickedness exceedingly.  

 

 

-

16


 

  Therefore Job openeth his mouth in vain, and multiplieth words without knowledge.
