Job 34

Furthermore Elihu
<0453>
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Hear
<08085> (8798)
my words
<04405>_,
O ye wise
<02450>
[men]; and give ear
<0238> (8685)
unto me, ye that have knowledge
<03045> (8802)_.
For the ear
<0241>
trieth
<0974> (8799)
words
<04405>_,
as the mouth
<02441>
tasteth
<02938> (8799)
meat
<0398> (8800)_.
{mouth: Heb. palate}
Let us choose
<0977> (8799)
to us judgment
<04941>_:
let us know
<03045> (8799)
among ourselves what [is] good
<02896>_.
For Job
<0347>
hath said
<0559> (8804)_,
I am righteous
<06663> (8804)_:
and God
<0410>
hath taken away
<05493> (8689)
my judgment
<04941>_.
Should I lie
<03576> (8762)
against my right
<04941>_?
my wound
<02671>
[is] incurable
<0605> (8803)
without transgression
<06588>_.
{my wound: Heb. mine arrow}
What man
<01397>
[is] like Job
<0347>_,
[who] drinketh up
<08354> (8799)
scorning
<03933>
like water
<04325>_?
Which goeth
<0732> (8804)
in company
<02274>
with the workers
<06466> (8802)
of iniquity
<0205>_,
and walketh
<03212> (8800)
with wicked
<07562>
men
<0582>_.
For he hath said
<0559> (8804)_,
It profiteth
<05532> (8799)
a man
<01397>
nothing that he should delight
<07521> (8800)
himself with God
<0430>_.
Therefore hearken
<08085> (8798)
unto me, ye men
<0582>
of understanding
<03824>_:
far be it
<02486>
from God
<0410>_,
[that he should do] wickedness
<07562>_;
and [from] the Almighty
<07706>_,
[that he should commit] iniquity
<05766>_.
{men...: Heb. men of heart}
For the work
<06467>
of a man
<0120>
shall he render
<07999> (8762)
unto him, and cause every man
<0376>
to find
<04672> (8686)
according to [his] ways
<0734>_.
Yea, surely
<0551>
God
<0410>
will not do wickedly
<07561> (8686)_,
neither will the Almighty
<07706>
pervert
<05791> (8762)
judgment
<04941>_.
Who hath given him a charge
<06485> (8804)
over the earth
<0776>_?
or who hath disposed
<07760> (8804)
the whole world
<08398>_?
{the whole: Heb. all of it?}
If he set
<07760> (8799)
his heart
<03820>
upon man, [if] he gather
<0622> (8799)
unto himself his spirit
<07307>
and his breath
<05397>_;
{man: Heb. him}
All flesh
<01320>
shall perish
<01478> (8799)
together
<03162>_,
and man
<0120>
shall turn again
<07725> (8799)
unto dust
<06083>_.
If now [thou hast] understanding
<0998>_,
hear
<08085> (8798)
this: hearken
<0238> (8685)
to the voice
<06963>
of my words
<04405>_.
Shall even he that hateth
<08130> (8802)
right
<04941>
govern
<02280> (8799)_?
and wilt thou condemn
<07561> (8686)
him that is most
<03524>
just
<06662>_?
{govern: Heb. bind?}
[Is it fit] to say
<0559> (8800)
to a king
<04428>_,
[Thou art] wicked
<01100>_?
[and] to princes
<05081>_,
[Ye are] ungodly
<07563>_?
[How much less to him] that accepteth
<05375> (8804)
not the persons
<06440>
of princes
<08269>_,
nor regardeth
<05234> (8765)
the rich
<07771>
more than
<06440>
the poor
<01800>_?
for they all [are] the work
<04639>
of his hands
<03027>_.
In a moment
<07281>
shall they die
<04191> (8799)_,
and the people
<05971>
shall be troubled
<01607> (8792)
at midnight
<02676> <03915>_,
and pass away
<05674> (8799)_:
and the mighty
<047>
shall be taken away
<05493> (8686)
without hand
<03027>_.
{the mighty...: Heb. they shall take away the mighty}
For his eyes
<05869>
[are] upon the ways
<01870>
of man
<0376>_,
and he seeth
<07200> (8799)
all his goings
<06806>_.
[There is] no darkness
<02822>_,
nor shadow of death
<06757>_,
where the workers
<06466> (8802)
of iniquity
<0205>
may hide
<05641> (8736)
themselves.
For he will not lay
<07760> (8799)
upon man
<0376>
more [than right]; that he should enter
<01980> (8800)
into judgment
<04941>
with God
<0410>_.
{enter: Heb. go}
He shall break in pieces
<07489> (8799)
mighty men
<03524>
without number
<02714>_,
and set
<05975> (8686)
others
<0312>
in their stead. {number: Heb. searching out}
Therefore he knoweth
<05234> (8686)
their works
<04566>_,
and he overturneth
<02015> (8804)
[them] in the night
<03915>_,
so that they are destroyed
<01792> (8691)_.
{destroyed: Heb. crushed}
He striketh
<05606> (8804)
them as
<08478>
wicked men
<07563>
in the open
<04725>
sight
<07200> (8802)
of others; {open...: Heb. place of beholders}
Because they turned back
<05493> (8804)
from him
<0310>_,
and would not consider
<07919> (8689)
any of his ways
<01870>_:
{him: Heb. after him}
So that they cause the cry
<06818>
of the poor
<01800>
to come
<0935> (8687)
unto him, and he heareth
<08085> (8799)
the cry
<06818>
of the afflicted
<06041>_.
When he giveth quietness
<08252> (8686)_,
who then can make trouble
<07561> (8686)_?
and when he hideth
<05641> (8686)
[his] face
<06440>_,
who then can behold
<07789> (8799)
him? whether [it be done] against a nation
<01471>_,
or against a man
<0120>
only
<03162>_:
That the hypocrite
<0120> <02611>
reign
<04427> (8800)
not, lest the people
<05971>
be ensnared
<04170>_.
Surely it is meet to be said
<0559> (8736)
unto God
<0410>_,
I have borne
<05375> (8804)
[chastisement], I will not offend
<02254> (8799)
[any more]:
[That which] I see
<02372> (8799)
not
<01107>
teach
<03384> (8685)
thou me: if I have done
<06466> (8804)
iniquity
<05766>_,
I will do
<03254> (8686)
no more.
[Should it be] according to thy mind? he will recompense
<07999> (8762)
it, whether thou refuse
<03588> <03988> (8804)_,
or whether thou choose
<0977> (8799)_;
and not I: therefore speak
<01696> (8761)
what thou knowest
<03045> (8804)_.
{according...: Heb. from with thee?}
Let men
<0582>
of understanding
<03824>
tell
<0559> (8799)
me, and let a wise
<02450>
man
<01397>
hearken
<08085> (8802)
unto me. {of...: Heb. of heart}
Job
<0347>
hath spoken
<01696> (8762)
without knowledge
<01847>_,
and his words
<01697>
[were] without wisdom
<07919> (8687)_.
My desire
<015> (8676) <01>
[is that] Job
<0347>
may be tried
<0974> (8735)
unto the end
<05331>
because of [his] answers
<08666>
for wicked
<0205>
men
<0582>_.
{My...: or, My father, let Job be tried}
For he addeth
<03254> (8686)
rebellion
<06588>
unto his sin
<02403>_,
he clappeth
<05606> (8799)
[his hands] among us, and multiplieth
<07235> (8686)
his words
<0561>
against God
<0410>_.
