ElihuH453 spokeH6030 moreover, and said,H559
2
ThinkH2803 you thisH2063 to be right,H4941 that you said,H559 My righteousnessH6664 is moreH3254 than God's?H410
3
For you said,H559 WhatH4100 advantageH5532 will it be to you? and, WhatH4100 profitH3276 shall I have, if I be cleansed from my sin?H2403
4
I will answerH7725 H4405 you, and your companionsH7453 with you.
5
LookH5027 to the heavens,H8064 and see;H7200 and beholdH7789 the cloudsH7834 which are higherH1361 than you.
6
IfH518 you sin,H2398 whatH4100 doH6466 you against him? or if your transgressionsH6588 be multiplied,H7231 whatH4100 doH6213 you to him?
7
IfH518 you be righteous,H6663 whatH4100 giveH5414 you him? orH176 whatH4100 receivesH3947 he of your hand?H3027
8
Your wickednessH7562 may hurt a manH376 as you are; and your righteousnessH6666 may profit the sonH1121 of man.H120
9
By reason of the multitudeH7230 of oppressionsH6217 they make the oppressed to cry:H2199 they cryH7768 out by reason of the armH2220 of the mighty.H7227
10
But noneH3808 said,H559 WhereH335 is GodH433 my maker,H6213 who givesH5414 songsH2158 in the night;H3915
11
Who teachesH502 us more than the beastsH929 of the earth,H776 and makes us wiserH2449 than the fowlsH5775 of heaven?H8064
12
ThereH8033 they cry,H6817 but noneH3808 gives answer,H6030 becauseH6440 of the prideH1347 of evilH7451 men.
13
SurelyH389 GodH410 will not hearH8085 vanity,H7723 neitherH3808 will the AlmightyH7706 regardH7789 it.
14
AlthoughH637 H3588 you sayH559 you shall not seeH7789 him, yet judgmentH1779 is beforeH6440 him; therefore trustH2342 you in him.
15
But now,H6258 becauseH3588 it is not so, he has visitedH6485 in his anger;H639 yet he knowsH3045 it not in greatH3966 extremity:H6580
16
Therefore does JobH347 openH6475 his mouthH6310 in vain;H1892 he multipliesH3527 wordsH4405 withoutH1097 knowledge.H1847
