  35:1 ¶
And Elihu{gr.Elius} resumed and said, |
|
35:1 ¶
Elihu°
spake°°
moreover, and said,°° |
|
35:2
What is this that thou thinkest to be according to right? who art thou that thou hast said, I am righteous before the Lord? |
|
35:2
Thinkest°°
thou this°
to be right,°
[that] thou saidst,°°
My righteousness°
[is] more than El's?°° |
|
35:3
I will answer thee, and thy three friends. |
|
35:3
For°
thou saidst,°°
What°
advantage°°
will it be unto thee? [and], What°
profit°°
shall I have, [if I be cleansed] from my sin?°° |
|
35:4
Look up to the sky and see; and consider the clouds, how high [they are] above thee. |
|
35:4
I°
will answer°°°
thee, and thy companions°
with°
thee. |
|
35:5
If thou hast sinned, what wilt thou do? |
|
35:5
Look°°
unto the heavens,°
and see;°°
and behold°°
the clouds°
[which] are higher°°
than°
thou. |
|
35:6
and if too thou hast transgressed much, what canst thou perform? |
|
35:6
If°
thou sinnest,°°
what°
doest°°
thou against him? or [if] thy transgressions°
be multiplied,°°
what°
doest°°
thou unto him? |
|
35:7
And suppose thou art righteous, what wilt thou give him? or what shall he receive of thy hand? |
|
35:7
If°
thou be righteous,°°
what°
givest°°
thou him? or°
what°
receiveth°°
he of thine hand?°° |
|
35:8
Thy ungodliness [may affect] a man who is like to thee; or thy righteousness a son of man. |
|
35:8
Thy wickedness°
[may hurt] a man°
as thou°
[art]; and thy righteousness°
[may profit] the son°
of man.° |
|
35:9
They that are oppressed of a multitude will be ready to cry out; they will call for help because of the arm of many. |
|
35:9
By reason of the multitude°°
of oppressions°
they make [the oppressed] to cry:°°
they cry out°°
by reason of the arm°°
of the mighty.° |
|
35:10
But none said, Where is God that made me, who appoints the night-watches; |
|
35:10
But none°
saith,°°
Where°
[is] Eloah°
my maker,°°
who giveth°°
songs°
in the night;° |
|
35:11
who makes me to differ from the four-footed beasts of the earth, and from the birds of the sky? |
|
35:11
Who teacheth°°
us more than the beasts°°
of the earth,°
and maketh us wiser°°
than the fowls°°
of heaven?° |
|
35:12
There they shall cry, and none shall hearken, even because of the insolence of wicked men. |
|
35:12
There°
they cry,°°
but none°
giveth answer,°°
because°°
of the pride°
of evil men.° |
|
35:13
For the Lord desires not to look on error, for he is the Almighty One. |
|
35:13
Surely°
El°
will not°
hear°°
vanity,°
neither°
will Shaddai°
regard°°
it. |
|
35:14
He beholds them that perform lawless deeds, and he will save me: and do thou plead before him, if thou canst praise him, as it is [possible] even now. |
|
35:14
Although°°
thou sayest°°
thou shalt not°
see°°
him, [yet] judgment°
[is] before°
him; therefore trust°°
thou in him. |
|
35:15
For he is not [now] regarding his wrath, nor has he noticed severely any trespass. |
|
35:15
But now,°
because°
[it is] not°
[so], he hath visited°°
in his anger;°
yet he knoweth°°
[it] not°
in great°
extremity:° |
|
35:16
Yet Job vainly opens his mouth, in ignorance he multiplies words. |
|
35:16
Therefore doth Job°
open°°
his mouth°
in vain;°
he multiplieth°°
words°
without°
knowledge.° |
