acv@Job:36:1 @ Elihu also proceeded, and said,

acv@Job:36:2 @ Allow me a little, and I will show thee. For I have yet somewhat to say on God's behalf.

acv@Job:36:3 @ I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my maker.

acv@Job:36:4 @ (For truly my words are not false.) He who is perfect in knowledge is with thee.

acv@Job:36:5 @ Behold, God is mighty, and does not despise. He is mighty in strength of understanding.

acv@Job:36:6 @ He does not preserve the life of the wicked, but gives to the afflicted [their] right.

acv@Job:36:7 @ He does not withdraw his eyes from the righteous, but he sets them forever with kings upon the throne, and they are exalted.

acv@Job:36:8 @ And if they be bound in fetters, and be taken in the cords of afflictions,

acv@Job:36:9 @ then he shows them their work, and their transgressions, that they have behaved themselves proudly.

acv@Job:36:10 @ He also opens their ear to instruction, and commands that they return from iniquity.

acv@Job:36:11 @ If they hearken and serve [him], they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.

acv@Job:36:12 @ But if they do not hearken, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge.

acv@Job:36:13 @ But those who are godless in heart lay up anger. They do not cry for help when he binds them.

acv@Job:36:14 @ They die in youth, and their life [perishes] among the unclean.

acv@Job:36:15 @ He delivers the afflicted by their affliction, and opens their ear in oppression.

acv@Job:36:16 @ Yea, he would have allured thee out of distress into a broad place, where there is no confinement, and that which is set on thy table would be full of fatness.

acv@Job:36:17 @ But thou have fulfilled the judgment of the wicked. Judgment and justice take hold,

acv@Job:36:18 @ and there shall be wrath upon the impious because of the ungodliness of bribes which the unrighteous receive.

acv@Job:36:19 @ Will thy cry not avail in distress, or all the forces of strength?

acv@Job:36:20 @ Do not desire the night, when peoples are cut off in their place.

acv@Job:36:21 @ Take heed. Do not turn to iniquity, for thou have fixed on this because of affliction.

acv@Job:36:22 @ Behold, God does loftily in his power. Who is a teacher like him?

acv@Job:36:23 @ Who has enjoined him his way? Or who can say, Thou have wrought unrighteousness?

acv@Job:36:24 @ Remember that thou magnify his work, of which men have sung.

acv@Job:36:25 @ All men have looked on it. Man beholds it afar off.

acv@Job:36:26 @ Behold, God is great, and we do not know him. The number of his years is unsearchable.

acv@Job:36:27 @ For he draws up the drops of water, which distil in rain from his vapor,

acv@Job:36:28 @ which the skies pour down and drop upon man abundantly.

acv@Job:36:29 @ Yea, can any understand the spreadings of the clouds, the thunderings of his pavilion?

acv@Job:36:30 @ Behold, he spreads his light around him, and he covers the bottom of the sea.

acv@Job:36:31 @ For by these he judges the peoples. he gives food in abundance.

acv@Job:36:32 @ He covers his hands with the lightning, and gives it a command that it strike the mark.

acv@Job:36:33 @ The noise of it tells concerning him. The cattle also concerning [the storm] that comes up.
