| Job 35: (YLT) |
| 1) And Elihu answereth and saith: -- |
| 2) This hast thou reckoned for judgment: Thou hast said -- 'My righteousness [is] more than God's?' |
| 3) For thou sayest, 'What doth it profit Thee! What do I profit from my sin?' |
| 4) I return thee words, and thy friends with thee, |
| 5) Behold attentively the heavens -- and see, And behold the clouds, They have been higher than thou. |
| 6) If thou hast sinned, what dost thou against Him? And thy transgressions have been multiplied, What dost thou to Him? |
| 7) If thou hast been righteous, What dost thou give to Him? Or what from thy hand doth He receive? |
| 8) For a man like thyself [is] thy wickedness, And for a son of man thy righteousness. |
| 9) Because of the multitude of oppressions They cause to cry out, They cry because of the arm of the mighty. |
| 10) And none said, 'Where [is] God my maker? Giving songs in the night, |
| 11) Teaching us more than the beasts of the earth, Yea, than the fowl of the heavens He maketh us wiser.' |
| 12) There they cry, and He doth not answer, Because of the pride of evil doers. |
| 13) Surely vanity God doth not hear, And the Mighty doth not behold it. |
| 14) Yea, though thou sayest thou dost not behold Him, Judgment [is] before Him, and stay for Him. |
| 15) And, now, because there is not, He hath appointed His anger, And He hath not known in great extremity. |
| 16) And Job [with] vanity doth open his mouth, Without knowledge words he multiplieth. |
