vw@Job:36:1 @ Elihu also continued on and said:

vw@Job:36:2 @ Bear with me a little, and I will show you that there are yet words to speak on Gods behalf.

vw@Job:36:3 @ I will take away my knowledge from afar; I will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.

vw@Job:36:4 @ For truly my words are not false; the One who is perfect in knowledge is with you.

vw@Job:36:5 @ Behold, the Mighty God is great, and refuses no one; He is mighty in strength and heart.

vw@Job:36:6 @ He does not preserve the life of the wicked, but gives justice to the lowly.

vw@Job:36:7 @ He does not withdraw His eyes from the righteous; but they are on the throne with kings, for He has seated them forever, and they are exalted.

vw@Job:36:8 @ And if they are bound in fetters, caught in cords of affliction,

vw@Job:36:9 @ then He declares to them their work and their transgressions; that they have acted proudly.

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

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

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

vw@Job:36:13 @ But the hypocrites in heart store up wrath; they do not cry for help when He has bound them.

vw@Job:36:14 @ Their soul dies in youth, and their life is among the male temple prostitutes.

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

vw@Job:36:16 @ Indeed He would have brought you out of the mouth of distress, into a broad place where there is no constraint; and what is set on your table would be full of fatness.

vw@Job:36:17 @ But you are filled with the judgment due the wicked; judgment and justice take hold of you.

vw@Job:36:18 @ Beware wrath, lest He entice you away to a mocking slap; for a large ransom will not turn it away.

vw@Job:36:19 @ He will not esteem your cry for help, riches, strength or might.

vw@Job:36:20 @ Do not long for the night, when people retreat into their place.

vw@Job:36:21 @ Take heed and do not turn away to iniquity, for you have chosen this rather than affliction.

vw@Job:36:22 @ Behold, the Mighty God is exalted by His power; who teaches like Him?

vw@Job:36:23 @ Who has assigned Him His way, or who has said, You have done wrong?

vw@Job:36:24 @ Remember to magnify His work, of which men have sung.

vw@Job:36:25 @ Mankind has seen it; man regards it from afar.

vw@Job:36:26 @ Behold, the Mighty God is great, and we cannot find Him out; nor can the number of His years be searched out.

vw@Job:36:27 @ For He draws up drops of water, which distill as rain from the mist,

vw@Job:36:28 @ which the clouds drop down and pour abundantly upon man.

vw@Job:36:29 @ Also, can anyone understand the spreading of the clouds, the thunder from His canopy?

vw@Job:36:30 @ Behold, He has spread his light upon it, and has covered the bottom of the sea.

vw@Job:36:31 @ For by these He judges the peoples; He gives food in abundance.

vw@Job:36:32 @ He covers His hands with lightning, and gives charge to strike the mark.

vw@Job:36:33 @ His thunder declares it; the cattle also go up.
