mkjv - 36

mkjv@Job:36:1 @ Elihu went on and said,

mkjv@Job:36:2 @ Wait for me a little, and I will show you that [there are] yet words for God.

mkjv@Job:36:3 @ I will bring my knowledge from afar, and I will credit righteousness to my Maker.

mkjv@Job:36:4 @ For truly my words [are] not false; He who is perfect in knowledge [is] with you.

mkjv@Job:36:5 @ Behold, God [is] mighty, and does not despise; [He is] mighty in strength of heart.

mkjv@Job:36:6 @ He will not keep alive one who is wicked, but gives right to the afflicted.

mkjv@Job:36:7 @ He withdraws not His eyes from the righteous, but [they are] like kings on the throne; yes, [He] causes them to sit forever, and they are very high.

mkjv@Job:36:8 @ And if they [are] bound in chains, and are held in cords of affliction,

mkjv@Job:36:9 @ then He shows them their work, and their sins, that they have behaved themselves proudly.

mkjv@Job:36:10 @ He also opens their ears to teaching, and commands that they return from iniquity.

mkjv@Job:36:11 @ If they obey and serve Him, they shall spend their days in blessedness, and their years in pleasures.

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

mkjv@Job:36:13 @ But the ungodly in heart heap up wrath; they cry not when He binds them.

mkjv@Job:36:14 @ Their soul dies in youth, and their life [ends] among the sodomites.

mkjv@Job:36:15 @ He delivers the poor in his affliction, and opens their ears by oppression.

mkjv@Job:36:16 @ And He also would have lured you from the mouth of distress [to] a wide place not cramped; and the setting of your table [would be] full of fatness.

mkjv@Job:36:17 @ But you have fulfilled the judgment of the wicked; judgment and justice take hold;

mkjv@Job:36:18 @ For [beware] wrath, that He not lure you with [His] scorn; then a great ransom cannot turn you aside.

mkjv@Job:36:19 @ [If] your cry for help is set in order, then [it will] not [be]. in distress, but with all the forces of strength.

mkjv@Job:36:20 @ Desire not the night, when people are cut off in their place.

mkjv@Job:36:21 @ Beware, do not turn to iniquity; for this you have chosen rather than affliction.

mkjv@Job:36:22 @ Behold, God is exalted in His power; who teaches like Him?

mkjv@Job:36:23 @ Who has appointed Him His way; or who can say, You have done wrong?

mkjv@Job:36:24 @ Remember that you magnify His work of which men have sung;

mkjv@Job:36:25 @ every man has seen it; man may see [it] afar off.

mkjv@Job:36:26 @ Behold, God [is] great, and we do not know; the number of His years cannot be searched out.

mkjv@Job:36:27 @ For He draws up the drops of water; they distill rain into mist,

mkjv@Job:36:28 @ which the clouds pour down [and] drop on man plentifully.

mkjv@Job:36:29 @ Also can [any] understand the spreading of the clouds, or the crashing of His canopy?

mkjv@Job:36:30 @ Behold, He spreads His light on it, and He covers the bottom of the sea.

mkjv@Job:36:31 @ For by them He judges the people; He gives plenty of food.

mkjv@Job:36:32 @ He covers His hands with the lightning, and commands it to strike the mark;

mkjv@Job:36:33 @ its thunder declares concerning Him, and the cattle, concerning what is coming.
