Job-35

(English Standard Version)

切换到福音影视网-新版圣经

  • 1 And Elihu answered and said:
  • 2 "Do you think this to be just? Do you say, 'It is my right before God,'
  • 3 that you ask, 'What advantage have I? How am I better off than if I had sinned?'
  • 4 I will answer you and your friends with you.
  • 5 Look at the heavens, and see; and behold the clouds, which are higher than you.
  • 6 If you have sinned, what do you accomplish against him? And if your transgressions are multiplied, what do you do to him?
  • 7 If you are righteous, what do you give to him? Or what does he receive from your hand?
  • 8 Your wickedness concerns a man like yourself, and your righteousness a son of man.
  • 9 "Because of the multitude of oppressions people cry out; they call for help because of the arm of the mighty.
  • 10 But none says, 'Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night,
  • 11 who teaches us more than the beasts of the earth and makes us wiser than the birds of the heavens?'
  • 12 There they cry out, but he does not answer, because of the pride of evil men.
  • 13 Surely God does not hear an empty cry, nor does the Almighty regard it.
  • 14 How much less when you say that you do not see him, that the case is before him, and you are waiting for him!
  • 15 And now, because his anger does not punish, and he does not take much note of transgression,
  • 16 Job opens his mouth in empty talk; he multiplies words without knowledge."
