Job35:1 And Eli'hu said:
Job35:2 'Do you think this to be just? Do you say, It is my right before God,'
Job35:3 that you ask, What advantage have I? How am I better off than if I had sinned?'
Job35:4 I will answer you and your friends with you.
Job35:5 Look at the heavens, and see;and behold the clouds, which are higher than you.
Job35:6 If you have sinned, what do you accomplish against him? And if your transgressions are multiplied, what do you do to him?
Job35:7 If you are righteous, what do you give to him;or what does he receive from your hand?
Job35:8 Your wickedness concerns a man like yourself, and your righteousness a son of man.
Job35:9 'Because of the multitude of oppressions people cry out;they call for help because of the arm of the mighty.
Job35:10 But none says, Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night,
Job35:11 who teaches us more than the beasts of the earth, and makes us wiser than the birds of the air?'
Job35:12 There they cry out, but he does not answer, because of the pride of evil men.
Job35:13 Surely God does not hear an empty cry, nor does the Almighty regard it.
Job35:14 How much less when you say that you do not see him, that the case is before him, and you are waiting for him!
Job35:15 And now, because his anger does not punish, and he does not greatly heed transgression,
Job35:16 Job opens his mouth in empty talk, he multiplies words without knowledge.'
