18:034:029 When he giveth quietness, who then can make trouble? and when he hideth his face, who then can behold him? whether it be done against a nation, or against a man only: 18:034:030 That the hypocrite reign not, lest the people be ensnared. 18:034:031 Surely it is meet to be said unto God, I have borne chastisement, I will not offend any more: 18:034:032 That which I see not teach thou me: if I have done iniquity, I will do no more. 18:034:033 Should it be according to thy mind? he will recompense it, whether thou refuse, or whether thou choose; and not I: therefore speak what thou knowest. 18:034:034 Let men of understanding tell me, and let a wise man hearken unto me. 18:034:035 Job hath spoken without knowledge, and his words were without wisdom. 18:034:036 My desire is that Job may be tried unto the end because of his answers for wicked men. 18:034:037 For he addeth rebellion unto his sin, he clappeth his hands among us, and multiplieth his words against God. 18:035:001 Elihu spake moreover, and said, 18:035:002 Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more than God's? 18:035:003 For thou saidst, What advantage will it be unto thee? and, What profit shall I have, if I be cleansed from my sin? 18:035:004 I will answer thee, and thy companions with thee. 18:035:005 Look unto the heavens, and see; and behold the clouds which are higher than thou. 18:035:006 If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him? or if thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him? 18:035:007 If thou be righteous, what givest thou him? or what receiveth he of thine hand? 18:035:008 Thy wickedness may hurt a man as thou art; and thy righteousness may profit the son of man. 18:035:009 By reason of the multitude of oppressions they make the oppressed to cry: they cry out by reason of the arm of the mighty. 18:035:010 But none saith, Where is God my maker, who giveth songs in the night; 18:035:011 Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven? 18:035:012 There they cry, but none giveth answer, because of the pride of evil men. 18:035:013 Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it. 18:035:014 Although thou sayest thou shalt not see him, yet judgment is before him; therefore trust thou in him. 18:035:015 But now, because it is not so, he hath visited in his anger; yet he knoweth it not in great extremity: 18:035:016 Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vain; he multiplieth words without knowledge. 18:036:001 Elihu also proceeded, and said, 18:036:002 Suffer me a little, and I will shew thee that I have yet to speak on God's behalf.
