- 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.”
