034:008 Who goes in company with the workers of iniquity, and walks with wicked men? 034:009 For he has said, 'It profits a man nothing that he should delight himself with God.' 034:010 "Therefore listen to me, you men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness, from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity. 034:011 For the work of a man he will render to him, and cause every man to find according to his ways. 034:012 Yes surely, God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert justice. 034:013 Who gave him a charge over the earth? or who has appointed him over the whole world? 034:014 If he set his heart on himself, If he gathered to himself his spirit and his breath, 034:015 all flesh would perish together, and man would turn again to dust. 034:016 "If now you have understanding, hear this. Listen to the voice of my words. 034:017 Shall even one who hates justice govern? Will you condemn him who is righteous and mighty?-- 034:018 Who says to a king, 'Vile!' or to nobles, 'Wicked!'? 034:019 Who doesn't respect the persons of princes, nor regards the rich more than the poor; for they all are the work of his hands. 034:020 In a moment they die, even at midnight. The people are shaken and pass away. The mighty are taken away without a hand. 034:021 "For his eyes are on the ways of a man. He sees all his goings. 034:022 There is no darkness, nor thick gloom, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves. 034:023 For he doesn't need to consider a man further, that he should go before God in judgment. 034:024 He breaks in pieces mighty men in ways past finding out, and sets others in their place. 034:025 Therefore he takes knowledge of their works. He overturns them in the night, so that they are destroyed. 034:026 He strikes them as wicked men in the open sight of others; 034:027 because they turned aside from following him, and wouldn't pay attention to any of his ways, 034:028 so that they caused the cry of the poor to come to him. He heard the cry of the afflicted. 034:029 When he gives quietness, who then can condemn? When he hides his face, who then can see him? Alike whether to a nation, or to a man, 034:030 that the godless man may not reign, that there be no one to ensnare the people. 034:031 "For has any said to God, 'I am guilty, but I will not offend any more. 034:032 Teach me that which I don't see. If I have done iniquity, I will do it no more'? 034:033 Shall his recompense be as you desire, that you refuse it? For you must choose, and not I. Therefore speak what you know. 034:034 Men of understanding will tell me, yes, every wise man who hears me: 034:035 'Job speaks without knowledge. His words are without wisdom.' 034:036 I wish that Job were tried to the end, because of his answering
