Job 34




rotherham@Job:34:1 @ Furthermore Elihu responded, and said:

rotherham@Job:34:2 @ Hear, ye wise men, my words, and, ye who know, give ear unto me;

rotherham@Job:34:3 @ For, the ear, trieth words, as, the palate, tasteth in eating.

rotherham@Job:34:4 @ What is right, let us choose for ourselves, Let us know, among ourselves, what is good;

rotherham@Job:34:5 @ For Job hath said I am righteous, But, GOD, hath turned away my right;

rotherham@Job:34:6 @ Concerning mine own right, shall I tell a falsehood? Incurable is my diseasenot for any transgression.

rotherham@Job:34:7 @ What man is like Job? He drinketh in scoffing like water;

rotherham@Job:34:8 @ And is on the way to keep company, with the workers of iniquity, and to walk with lawless men.

rotherham@Job:34:9 @ For he hath said, It profiteth not a man, when, his good pleasure, is with God.

rotherham@Job:34:10 @ Wherefore, ye men of mind, hearken unto me, Far be it, that, GOD, should be lawless, or, the Almighty, be perverse!

rotherham@Job:34:11 @ For, what any son of earth doeth, he repayeth him, and, according to every mans course, he causeth him to find.

rotherham@Job:34:12 @ Nay, verily, GOD, will not condemn unjustly, nor, the Almighty, pervert justice.

rotherham@Job:34:13 @ Who set him in charge of the earth? Or who appointed the whole world?

rotherham@Job:34:14 @ If he should set against him his heart, His spirit and his inspiration, unto himself he should withdraw.

rotherham@Job:34:15 @ All flesh together, would cease to breathe, and, the earth-born, unto dust, would return.

rotherham@Job:34:16 @ If then understanding, hear this, Give thou ear to the teaching of my words:

rotherham@Job:34:17 @ Shall, the very hater of right, control? Or, the justthe mighty one, wilt thou condemn?

rotherham@Job:34:18 @ Doth one say to a king, Abandoned one! Or, Lawless one! unto nobles?

rotherham@Job:34:19 @ For he hath shewn no respect of persons unto princes, neither hath he recognised the rich rather than the poor? For, the work of his hands, are they all.

rotherham@Job:34:20 @ In a moment, they die, even in the middle of the night, A people are convulsed when they pass away, A mighty one is removed, without hand;

rotherham@Job:34:21 @ For, his eyes, are on the ways of a man, and, all his footsteps, he beholdeth,

rotherham@Job:34:22 @ No darkness, and no death-shade, where the workers of iniquity may hide.

rotherham@Job:34:23 @ For, unto no man, doth he appoint a repetition, in going unto GOD in judgment;

rotherham@Job:34:24 @ He shattereth mighty ones unsearchably, and setteth up others in their stead:

rotherham@Job:34:25 @ Therefore, he observeth their works, and overturneth in a night, and they are crushed;

rotherham@Job:34:26 @ In the place of lawless men, hath he chastised them, in presence of beholders.

rotherham@Job:34:27 @ Forasmuch, as they turned from following him, and, none of his ways, did they teach;

rotherham@Job:34:28 @ Causing to reach him the outcry of the poor, Yea, the outcry of the oppressed, he heareth.

rotherham@Job:34:29 @ When, he, giveth quiet, who then shall condemn? And, when he hideth face, who then shall sing of him? whether unto a nation or unto mankind altogether,

rotherham@Job:34:30 @ That impious men may not reign, nor be ensnarers of the people.

rotherham@Job:34:31 @ For, unto GOD, hath one said I have borne punishment, I will not be perverse;

rotherham@Job:34:32 @ What I see not, do, thou, shew me, If, perverseness, I have wrought, I will do it no more?

rotherham@Job:34:33 @ According to thy mind, must he requite it, that thou hast refused? For, thou, must choose, and not, I, What then thou knowest, speak!

rotherham@Job:34:34 @ The men of mind, will say to me, yea any wise man hearkening unto me:

rotherham@Job:34:35 @ Job, without knowledge, doth speak, and, his words, are not with discretion.

rotherham@Job:34:36 @ Would that Job might be tested to the uttermost, for replying with the men of iniquity:

rotherham@Job:34:37 @ For he addethunto his sinrebellion, In our midst, he clappeth his hands, and multiplieth his sayings against GOD.
