 |
| Job 36:1 |
|
Elihu also proceeded, and said, |
|
|
|
|
| Job 36:2 |
|
Suffer me a little, and I will show thee; For
I have yet somewhat to say on God's behalf. |
| |
|
|
| Job 36:3 |
|
I will fetch my knowledge from afar, And will
ascribe righteousness to my Maker. |
| |
|
|
| Job 36:4 |
|
For truly my words are not false: One that is
perfect in knowledge is with thee. |
| |
|
|
| Job 36:5 |
|
Behold, God is mighty, and despiseth not any:
He is mighty in strength of understanding. |
| |
|
|
| Job 36:6 |
|
He preserveth not the life of the wicked, But
giveth to the afflicted their right. |
| |
|
|
| Job 36:7 |
|
He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous:
But with kings upon the throne He setteth them for ever, and they are exalted.
|
|
|
|
| Job 36:8 |
|
And if they be bound in fetters, And be taken
in the cords of afflictions; |
|
|
|
| Job 36:9 |
|
Then he showeth them their work, And their transgressions,
that they have behaved themselves proudly. |
|
|
|
| Job 36:10 |
|
He openeth also their ear to instruction, And
commandeth that they return from iniquity. |
|
|
|
| Job 36:11 |
|
If they hearken and serve him, They shall spend
their days in prosperity, And their years in pleasures. |
|
|
|
| Job 36:12 |
|
But if they hearken not, they shall perish by
the sword, And they shall die without knowledge. |
|
|
|
| Job 36:13 |
|
But they that are godless in heart lay up anger:
They cry not for help when he bindeth them. |
|
|
|
| Job 36:14 |
|
They die in youth, And their life perisheth
among the unclean. |
|
|
|
| Job 36:15 |
|
He delivereth the afflicted by their affliction,
And openeth their ear in oppression. |
|
|
|
| Job 36:16 |
|
Yea, he would have allured thee out of distress
Into a broad place, where there is no straitness; And that which is set on thy
table would be full of fatness. |
|
|
|
| Job 36:17 |
|
But thou art full of the judgment of the wicked:
Judgment and justice take hold on thee. |
|
|
|
| Job 36:18 |
|
For let not wrath stir thee up against chastisements;
Neither let the greatness of the ransom turn thee aside. |
|
|
|
| Job 36:19 |
|
Will thy cry avail, that thou be not in distress,
Or all the forces of thy strength? |
| |
|
|
| Job 36:20 |
|
Desire not the night, When peoples are cut off
in their place. |
| |
|
|
| Job 36:21 |
|
Take heed, regard not iniquity: For this hast
thou chosen rather than affliction. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 36:22 |
|
Behold, God doeth loftily in his power: Who
is a teacher like unto him? |
|
|
|
|
| Job 36:23 |
|
Who hath enjoined him his way? Or who can say,
Thou hast wrought unrighteousness? |
|
|
|
|
| Job 36:24 |
|
Remember that thou magnify his work, Whereof
men have sung. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 36:25 |
|
All men have looked thereon; Man beholdeth it
afar off. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 36:26 |
|
Behold, God is great, and we know him not; The
number of his years is unsearchable. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 36:27 |
|
For he draweth up the drops of water, Which
distil in rain from his vapor, |
|
|
|
|
| Job 36:28 |
|
Which the skies pour down And drop upon man
abundantly. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 36:29 |
|
Yea, can any understand the spreadings of the
clouds, The thunderings of his pavilion? |
|
|
|
|
| Job 36:30 |
|
Behold, he spreadeth his light around him; And
he covereth the bottom of the sea. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 36:31 |
|
For by these he judgeth the peoples; He giveth
food in abundance. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 36:32 |
|
He covereth his hands with the lightning, And
giveth it a charge that it strike the mark. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 36:33 |
|
The noise thereof telleth concerning him, The
cattle also concerning the storm that cometh up. |
