Job33:4 The spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life.
Job33:5 If thou canst answer me, set thy words in order before me, stand up.
Job33:6 Behold, I am according to thy wish in God's stead: I also am formed out of the clay.
Job33:7 Behold, my terror shall not make thee afraid, neither shall my hand be heavy upon thee.
Job33:8 Surely thou hast spoken in mine hearing, and I have heard the voice of thy words, saying,
Job33:9 I am clean without transgression, I am innocent; neither is there iniquity in me.
Job33:10 Behold, he findeth occasions against me, he counteth me for his enemy,
Job33:11 He putteth my feet in the stocks, he marketh all my paths.
Job33:12 Behold, in this thou art not just: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.
Job33:13 Why dost thou strive against him? for he giveth not account of any of his matters.
Job33:14 For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not.
Job33:15 In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;
Job33:16 Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction,
Job33:17 That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.
Job33:18 He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.
Job33:19 He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong pain:
Job33:20 So that his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty meat.
Job33:21 His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out.
Job33:22 Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers.
Job33:23 If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man his uprightness:
Job33:24 Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.
Job33:25 His flesh shall be fresher than a child's: he shall return to the days of his youth:
Job33:26 He shall pray unto God, and he will be favourable unto him: and he shall see his face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness.
Job33:27 He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;
Job33:28 He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light.
Job33:29 Lo, all these things worketh God oftentimes with man,
Job33:30 To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living.
Job33:31 Mark well, O Job, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I will speak.
Job33:32 If thou hast anything to say, answer me: speak, for I desire to justify thee.
Job33:33 If not, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I shall teach thee wisdom.
Job34:1 Furthermore Elihu answered and said,
Job34:2 Hear my words, O ye wise men; and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge.
Job34:3 For the ear trieth words, as the mouth tasteth meat.
Job34:4 Let us choose to us judgment: let us know among ourselves what is good.
Job34:5 For Job hath said, I am righteous: and God hath taken away my judgment.
Job34:6 Should I lie against my right? my wound is incurable without transgression.
Job34:7 What man is like Job, who drinketh up scorning like water?
Job34:8 Which goeth in company with the workers of iniquity, and walketh with wicked men.
Job34:9 For he hath said, It profiteth a man nothing that he should delight himself with God.
Job34:10 Therefore hearken unto me ye men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness; and from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.
Job34:11 For the work of a man shall he render unto him, and cause every man to find according to his ways.
Job34:12 Yea, surely God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert judgment.
Job34:13 Who hath given him a charge over the earth? or who hath disposed the whole world?
Job34:14 If he set his heart upon man, if he gather unto himself his spirit and his breath;
Job34:15 All flesh shall perish together, and man shall turn again unto dust.
Job34:16 If now thou hast understanding, hear this: hearken to the voice of my words.
Job34:17 Shall even he that hateth right govern? and wilt thou condemn him that is most just?
Job34:18 Is it fit to say to a king, Thou art wicked? and to princes, Ye are ungodly?
Job34:19 How much less to him that accepteth not the persons of princes, nor regardeth the rich more than the poor? for they all are the work of his hands.
Job34:20 In a moment shall they die, and the people shall be troubled at midnight, and pass away: and the mighty shall be taken away without hand.
Job34:21 For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he seeth all his goings.
Job34:22 There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.
Job34:23 For he will not lay upon man more than right; that he should enter into judgment with God.
Job34:24 He shall break in pieces mighty men without number, and set others in their stead.
Job34:25 Therefore he knoweth their works, and he overturneth them in the night, so that they are destroyed.
Job34:26 He striketh them as wicked men in the open sight of others;
Job34:27 Because they turned back from him, and would not consider any of his ways:
Job34:28 So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto him, and he heareth the cry of the afflicted.
Job34:29 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:
Job34:30 That the hypocrite reign not, lest the people be ensnared.
Job34:31 Surely it is meet to be said unto God, I have borne chastisement, I will not offend any more:
Job34:32 That which I see not teach thou me: if I have done iniquity, I will do no more.
Job34:33 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.
Job34:34 Let men of understanding tell me, and let a wise man hearken unto me.
Job34:35 Job hath spoken without knowledge, and his words were without wisdom.
Job34:36 My desire is that Job may be tried unto the end because of his answers for wicked men.
Job34:37 For he addeth rebellion unto his sin, he clappeth his hands among us, and multiplieth his words against God.
Job35:1 Elihu spake moreover, and said,
Job35:2 Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more than God's?
Job35:3 For thou saidst, What advantage will it be unto thee? and, What profit shall I have, if I be cleansed from my sin?
Job35:4 I will answer thee, and thy companions with thee.
Job35:5 Look unto the heavens, and see; and behold the clouds which are higher than thou.
Job35:6 If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him? or if thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him?
Job35:7 If thou be righteous, what givest thou him? or what receiveth he of thine hand?
Job35:8 Thy wickedness may hurt a man as thou art; and thy righteousness may profit the son of man.
Job35:9 By reason of the multitude of oppressions they make the oppressed to cry: they cry out by reason of the arm of the mighty.
Job35:10 But none saith, Where is God my maker, who giveth songs in the night;
Job35:11 Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven?
Job35:12 There they cry, but none giveth answer, because of the pride of evil men.
