Job 36:1-33

36:1
Elihu
<0453>
also proceeded
<03254> (8686)_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
36:2
Suffer
<03803> (8761)
me a little
<02191>_,
and I will shew
<02331> (8762)
thee that [I have] yet to speak
<04405>
on God's
<0433>
behalf. {I have...: Heb. there are yet words for God}
36:3
I will fetch
<05375> (8799)
my knowledge
<01843>
from afar
<07350>_,
and will ascribe
<05414> (8799)
righteousness
<06664>
to my Maker
<06466> (8802)_.
36:4
For truly
<0551>
my words
<04405>
[shall] not [be] false
<08267>_:
he that is perfect
<08549>
in knowledge
<01844>
[is] with thee.
36:5
Behold, God
<0410>
[is] mighty
<03524>_,
and despiseth
<03988> (8799)
not [any: he is] mighty
<03524>
in strength
<03581>
[and] wisdom
<03820>_.
{wisdom: Heb. heart}
36:6
He preserveth not the life
<02421> (8762)
of the wicked
<07563>_:
but giveth
<05414> (8799)
right
<04941>
to the poor
<06041>_.
{poor: or, afflicted}
36:7
He withdraweth
<01639> (8799)
not his eyes
<05869>
from the righteous
<06662>_:
but with kings
<04428>
[are they] on the throne
<03678>_;
yea, he doth establish
<03427> (8686)
them for ever
<05331>_,
and they are exalted
<01361> (8799)_.
36:8
And if [they be] bound
<0631> (8803)
in fetters
<02131>_,
[and] be holden
<03920> (8735)
in cords
<02256>
of affliction
<06040>_;
36:9
Then he sheweth
<05046> (8686)
them their work
<06467>_,
and their transgressions
<06588>
that they have exceeded
<01396> (8691)_.
36:10
He openeth
<01540> (8799)
also their ear
<0241>
to discipline
<04148>_,
and commandeth
<0559> (8799)
that they return
<07725> (8799)
from iniquity
<0205>_.
36:11
If they obey
<08085> (8799)
and serve
<05647> (8799)
[him], they shall spend
<03615> (8762)
their days
<03117>
in prosperity
<02896>_,
and their years
<08141>
in pleasures
<05273>_.
36:12
But if they obey
<08085> (8799)
not, they shall perish
<05674> (8799)
by the sword
<07973>_,
and they shall die
<01478> (8799)
without knowledge
<01847>_.
{perish: Heb. pass away}
36:13
But the hypocrites
<02611>
in heart
<03820>
heap up
<07760> (8799)
wrath
<0639>_:
they cry
<07768> (8762)
not when he bindeth
<0631> (8804)
them.
36:14
They
<05315>
die
<04191> (8799)
in youth
<05290>_,
and their life
<02416>
[is] among the unclean
<06945>_.
{They...: Heb. Their soul dieth} {unclean: or, sodomites}
36:15
He delivereth
<02502> (8762)
the poor
<06041>
in his affliction
<06040>_,
and openeth
<01540> (8799)
their ears
<0241>
in oppression
<03906>_.
{poor: or, afflicted}
36:16
Even so would he have removed
<05496> (8689)
thee out of the strait
<06310> <06862>
[into] a broad place
<07338>_,
where
<08478>
[there is] no straitness
<04164>_;
and that which should be set
<05183>
on thy table
<07979>
[should be] full
<04390> (8804)
of fatness
<01880>_.
{that...: Heb. the rest of thy table}
36:17
But thou hast fulfilled
<04390> (8804)
the judgment
<01779>
of the wicked
<07563>_:
judgment
<01779>
and justice
<04941>
take hold
<08551> (8799)
[on thee]. {take...: or, should uphold thee}
36:18
Because [there is] wrath
<02534>_,
[beware] lest he take thee away
<05496> (8686)
with [his] stroke
<05607>_:
then a great
<07230>
ransom
<03724>
cannot deliver
<05186> (8686)
thee. {deliver...: Heb. turn thee aside}
36:19
Will he esteem
<06186> (8799)
thy riches
<07769>_?
[no], not gold
<01222>_,
nor all the forces
<03981>
of strength
<03581>_.
36:20
Desire
<07602> (8799)
not the night
<03915>_,
when people
<05971>
are cut off
<05927> (8800)
in their place.
36:21
Take heed
<08104> (8734)_,
regard
<06437> (8799)
not iniquity
<0205>_:
for this hast thou chosen
<0977> (8804)
rather than affliction
<06040>_.
36:22
Behold, God
<0410>
exalteth
<07682> (8686)
by his power
<03581>_:
who teacheth
<03384> (8688)
like him?
36:23
Who hath enjoined
<06485> (8804)
him his way
<01870>_?
or who can say
<0559> (8804)_,
Thou hast wrought
<06466> (8804)
iniquity
<05766>_?
36:24
Remember
<02142> (8798)
that thou magnify
<07679> (8686)
his work
<06467>_,
which men
<0582>
behold
<07891> (8790)_.
36:25
Every man
<0120>
may see
<02372> (8804)
it; man
<0582>
may behold
<05027> (8686)
[it] afar off
<07350>_.
36:26
Behold, God
<0410>
[is] great
<07689>_,
and we know
<03045> (8799)
[him] not, neither can the number
<04557>
of his years
<08141>
be searched out
<02714>_.
36:27
For he maketh small
<01639> (8762)
the drops
<05198>
of water
<04325>_:
they pour down
<02212> (8799)
rain
<04306>
according to the vapour
<0108>
thereof:
36:28
Which the clouds
<07834>
do drop
<05140> (8799)
[and] distil
<07491> (8799)
upon man
<0120>
abundantly
<07227>_.
36:29
Also can [any] understand
<0995> (8799)
the spreadings
<04666>
of the clouds
<05645>_,
[or] the noise
<08663>
of his tabernacle
<05521>_?
36:30
Behold, he spreadeth
<06566> (8804)
his light
<0216>
upon it, and covereth
<03680> (8765)
the bottom
<08328>
of the sea
<03220>_.
{bottom: Heb. roots}
36:31
For by them judgeth
<01777> (8799)
he the people
<05971>_;
he giveth
<05414> (8799)
meat
<0400>
in abundance
<04342> (8688)_.
36:32
With clouds
<03709>
he covereth
<03680> (8765)
the light
<0216>_;
and commandeth
<06680> (8762)
it [not to shine] by [the cloud] that cometh betwixt
<06293> (8688)_.
36:33
The noise
<07452>
thereof sheweth
<05046> (8686)
concerning it, the cattle
<04735>
also concerning the vapour
<05927> (8802)_.
{the vapour: Heb. that which goeth up}
