34:1 And
Elihu
answereth
and
saith:
34:2 Hear,
O
wise
men,
my
words,
And,
O
knowing
ones,
give
ear
to
me.
34:3 For
the
ear
doth
try
words,
And
the
palate
tasteth
to
eat.
34:4 Judgment
let
us
choose
for
ourselves,
Let
us
know
among
ourselves
what
[is]
good.
34:5 For
Job
hath
said,
`I
have
been
righteous,
And
God
hath
turned
aside
my
right,
34:6 Against
my
right
do
I
lie
Mortal
[is]
mine
arrow--without
transgression.'
34:7 Who
[is]
a
man
like
Job
He
drinketh
scoffing
like
water,
34:8 And
he
hath
travelled
for
company
With
workers
of
iniquity,
So
as
to
go
with
men
of
wickedness.
34:9 For
he
hath
said,
`It
doth
not
profit
a
man,
When
he
delighteth
himself
with
God.'
34:10 Therefore,
O
men
of
heart,
hearken
to
me;
Far
be
it
from
God
to
do
wickedness,
And
[from]
the
Mighty
to
do
perverseness:
34:11 For
the
work
of
man
he
repayeth
to
him,
And
according
to
the
path
of
each
He
doth
cause
him
to
find.
34:12 Yea,
truly,
God
doth
not
do
wickedly,
And
the
Mighty
doth
not
pervert
judgment.
34:13 Who
hath
inspected
for
Himself
the
earth
And
who
hath
placed
all
the
habitable
world
34:14 If
He
doth
set
on
him
His
heart,
His
spirit
and
his
breath
unto
Him
He
gathereth.
34:15 Expire
doth
all
flesh
together,
And
man
to
dust
returneth.
34:16 And
if
[there
is]
understanding,
hear
this,
Give
ear
to
the
voice
of
my
words.
34:17 Yea,
doth
one
hating
justice
govern
Or
the
Most
Just
dost
thou
condemn
34:18 Who
hath
said
to
a
king--`Worthless,'
Unto
princes--`Wicked'
34:19 That
hath
not
accepted
the
person
of
princes,
Nor
hath
known
the
rich
before
the
poor,
For
a
work
of
His
hands
[are]
all
of
them.
34:20 [
In]
a
moment
they
die,
and
at
midnight
Shake
do
people,
and
they
pass
away,
And
they
remove
the
mighty
without
hand.
34:21 For
His
eyes
[are]
on
the
ways
of
each,
And
all
his
steps
He
doth
see.
34:22 There
is
no
darkness
nor
death-shade,
For
workers
of
iniquity
to
be
hidden
there;
34:23 For
He
doth
not
suffer
man
any
more,
To
go
unto
God
in
judgment,
34:24 He
breaketh
the
mighty--no
searching!
And
He
appointeth
others
in
their
stead.
34:25 Therefore
He
knoweth
their
works,
And
He
hath
overturned
by
night,
And
they
are
bruised.
34:26 As
wicked
He
hath
stricken
them,
In
the
place
of
beholders.
34:27 Because
that
against
right
They
have
turned
aside
from
after
Him,
And
none
of
His
ways
have
considered
wisely,
34:28 To
cause
to
come
in
unto
Him
The
cry
of
the
poor,
And
the
cry
of
the
afflicted
He
heareth.
34:29 And
He
giveth
rest,
and
who
maketh
wrong
And
hideth
the
face,
and
who
beholdeth
it
And
in
reference
to
a
nation
and
to
a
man,
[It
is]
the
same.
34:30 From
the
reigning
of
a
profane
man,
From
the
snares
of
a
people;
34:31 For
unto
God
hath
any
said:
`I
have
taken
away,
I
do
not
corruptly,
34:32 Besides
[that
which]
I
see,
shew
Thou
me,
If
iniquity
I
have
done--I
do
not
add'
34:33 By
thee
doth
He
recompense,
That
thou
hast
refused--That
thou
dost
choose,
and
not
I
And
what
thou
hast
known,
speak.
34:34 Let
men
of
heart
say
to
me,
And
a
wise
man
is
hearkening
to
me.
34:35 Job--not
with
knowledge
doth
he
speak,
And
his
words
[are]
not
with
wisdom.
34:36 My
Father!
let
Job
be
tried--unto
victory,
Because
of
answers
for
men
of
iniquity,
34:37 For
he
doth
add
to
his
sin,
Transgression
among
us
he
vomiteth,
And
multiplieth
his
sayings
to
God.
