Book 29 : KETUVIM - JOB - Chapter 036

36:001

Elihu also proceeded, and said

36:002

Suffer me a little, and I will tell thee; for there are yet words on G-d's behalf

36:003

I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker

36:004

For truly my words are not false; one that is upright in mind is with thee

36:005

Behold, G-d is mighty, yet He despiseth not any; He is mighty in strength of understanding

36:006

He preserveth not the life of the wicked; but giveth to the poor their right

36:007

He withdraweth not His eyes from the righteous; but with kings upon the throne He setteth them for ever, and they are exalted

36:008

And if they be bound in fetters, and be holden in cords of affliction

36:009

Then He declareth unto them their work, and their transgressions, that they have behaved themselves proudly

36:010

He openeth also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity

36:011

If they hearken and serve Him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures

36:012

But if they hearken not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge

36:013

But they that are godless in heart lay up anger; they cry not for help when He bindeth them

36:014

Their soul perisheth in youth, and their life as that of the depraved

36:015

He delivereth the afflicted by His affliction, and openeth their ear by tribulation

36:016

Yea, He hath allured thee out of distress into a broad place, where there is no straitness; and that which is set on thy table is full of fatness

36:017

And thou art full of the judgment of the wicked; judgment and justice take hold on them

36:018

For beware of wrath, lest thou be led away by thy sufficiency; neither let the greatness of the ransom turn thee aside

36:019

Will thy riches avail, that are without stint, or all the forces of thy strength

36:020

Desire not the night, when peoples are cut off in their place

36:021

Take heed, regard not iniquity; for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction

36:022

Behold, G-d doeth loftily in His power; who is a teacher like Him

36:023

Who hath enjoined Him His way? Or who hath said: 'Thou hast wrought unrighteousness'

36:024

Remember that thou magnify His work, whereof men have sung

36:025

All men have looked thereon; man beholdeth it afar off

36:026

Behold, G-d is great, beyond our knowledge; the number of His years is unsearchable

36:027

For He draweth away the drops of water, which distil rain from His vapour

36:028

Which the skies pour down and drop upon the multitudes of men

36:029

Yea, can any understand the spreadings of the clouds, the crashings of His pavilion

36:030

Behold, He spreadeth His light upon it; and He covereth the depths of the sea

36:031

For by these He judgeth the peoples; He giveth food in abundance

36:032

He covereth His hands with the lightning, and giveth it a charge that it strike the mark

36:033

The noise thereof telleth concerning it, the cattle also concerning the storm that cometh up
