18_JOB_34_01 furthermore Elihu answered And said ,
18_JOB_34_02 hear my words , O ye wise [ men ] ; And give ear unto me , ye that have knowledge .
18_JOB_34_03 for the ear trieth words , as the mouth tasteth meat .
18_JOB_34_04 let us Choose to us judgment : let us know among ourselves what [ Is ] good .
18_JOB_34_05 for Job hath said , I am righteous : And God hath taken away my judgment .
18_JOB_34_06 should I Lie against my right ? my wound [ Is ] incurable without transgression .
18_JOB_34_07 what man [ Is ] like Job , [ who ] drinketh up scorning like water ?
18_JOB_34_08 which goeth in company with the workers of iniquity , And walketh with wicked men .
18_JOB_34_09 for he hath said , it profiteth A man nothing that he should delight himself with God .
18_JOB_34_10 therefore hearken unto me , ye men of understanding : far be it from God , [ that he should do ] wickedness ; And [ from ] the Almighty , [ that he should commit ] iniquity .
18_JOB_34_11 for the work of A man shall he render unto him , And cause every man to find according to [ his ] ways .
18_JOB_34_12 yea , surely God will not do wickedly , neither will the Almighty pervert judgment .
18_JOB_34_13 who hath given him A charge over the earth ? or who hath disposed the whole world ?
18_JOB_34_14 if he set his heart upon man , [ if ] he gather unto himself his spirit And his breath ;
18_JOB_34_15 all flesh shall perish together , And man shall turn again unto dust .
18_JOB_34_16 if now [ thou hast ] understanding , hear this : hearken to the voice of my words .
18_JOB_34_17 shall even he that hateth right govern ? And Wilt thou condemn him that Is most just ?
18_JOB_34_18 [ Is it fit ] to say to A king , [ thou art ] wicked ? [ And ] to princes , [ ye are ] ungodly ?
18_JOB_34_19 [ how much less to him ] that accepteth not the persons of princes , nor regardeth the rich more than the poor ? for they all [ are ] the work of his hands .
18_JOB_34_20 in A moment shall they die , And the people shall be troubled at midnight , And pass away : And the mighty shall be taken away without hand .
18_JOB_34_21 for his eyes [ are ] upon the ways of man , And he seeth all his goings .
18_JOB_34_22 [ there Is ] no darkness , nor shadow of death , where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves .
18_JOB_34_23 for he will not lay upon man more [ than right ] ; that he should enter into judgment with God .
18_JOB_34_24 he shall break in pieces mighty men without number , And set others in their stead .
18_JOB_34_25 therefore he knoweth their works , And he overturneth [ them ] in the night , So that they are destroyed .
18_JOB_34_26 he striketh them as wicked men in the open sight of others ;
18_JOB_34_27 because they turned back from him , And would not consider any of his ways :
18_JOB_34_28 So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto him , And he heareth the cry of the afflicted .
18_JOB_34_29 when he giveth quietness , who Then can make Trouble ? And when he hideth [ his ] face , who Then can behold him ? whether [ it be done ] against A nation , or against A man only :
18_JOB_34_30 that the hypocrite reign not , lest the people be ensnared .
18_JOB_34_31 surely it Is meet to be said unto God , I have borne [ chastisement ] , I will not offend [ any more ] :
18_JOB_34_32 [ that which ] I see not teach thou me : if I have done iniquity , I will do no more .
18_JOB_34_33 [ should it be ] according to thy mind ? he will recompense it , whether thou refuse , or whether thou Choose ; And not I : therefore speak what thou knowest .
18_JOB_34_34 let men of understanding tell me , And let A wise man hearken unto me .
18_JOB_34_35 Job hath spoken without knowledge , And his words [ were ] without wisdom .
18_JOB_34_36 my desire [ Is that ] Job may be tried unto the end because of [ his ] answers for wicked men .
18_JOB_34_37 for he addeth rebellion unto his sin , he clappeth [ his hands ] among us , And multiplieth his words against God .
