CHAP. XXXIV.
1 Elihu accuseth Iob for charging God with iniustice. 10 God omnipotent cannot be vniust. 31 Man must humble himselfe vnto God. 34 Elihu reprooueth Iob.
1Furthermore Elihu answered, and said,
2Heare my wordes, O yee wise men, and giue eare vnto me, ye that haue knowledge.
3For the eare trieth words, as the mouth tasteth meate.3
4Let vs chuse to vs iudgement: let vs know among our selues what is good.
5For Iob hath said, I am righteous: and God hath taken away my iudgement.
6Should I lye against my right? my wound is incurable without transgression.6
7What man is like Iob, who drinketh vp scorning like water?
8Which goeth in company with the workers of iniquitie, and walketh with wicked men.
9For hee hath said, It profiteth a man nothing, that he should delight himselfe with God.
10Therefore hearken vnto me, ye men of vnderstanding: farre bee it from God, that he should doe wickednes, and from the Almighty, that hee should commit iniquitie.10
11For the worke of a man shall he render vnto him, and cause euery man to finde according to his wayes.11
12Yea surely God will not doe wickedly, neither will the Almighty peruert iudgement.
13Who hath giuen him a charge ouer the earth? or who hath disposed the whole world?13
14If he set his heart vpon man, if he gather vnto himselfe his spirit and his breath;14
15All flesh shall perish together, and man shall turne againe vnto dust.15
16If now thou hast vnderstanding, heare this: hearken to the voyce of my words.
17Shall euen he that hateth right, gouerne? and wilt thou condemne him that is most iust?17
18Is it fit to say to a King, Thou art wicked? and to Princes, Ye are vngodly?
19How much lesse to him that accepteth not the persons of Princes, nor regardeth the rich more then the poore? for they all are the woorke of his hands.19
20In a moment shall they die, and the people shalbe troubled at midnight, and passe away: and the mighty shall be taken away without hand.20
21For his eyes are vpon the wayes of man, and he seeth all his goings.21
22There is no darkenes, nor shadow of death, where the workers of iniquitie may hide themselues.
23For hee will not lay vpon man more then right; that he should enter into iudgement with God.23
24He shall breake in pieces mighty men without number, and set others in their stead.24
25Therefore hee knoweth their workes, and he ouerturneth them in the night, so that they are destroyed.25
26He striketh them as wicked men, in the open sight of others:26
27Because they turned backe from him, and would not consider any of his wayes.27
28So that they cause the cry of the poore to come vnto him, and he heareth the cry of the afflicted.
30That the hypocrite raigne not, lest the people be ensnared.
31Surely it is meete to be said vnto God, I haue borne chastisement, I will not offend any more.
32That which I see not, teach thou me; If I haue done iniquitie, I will doe no more.
33Should it bee according to thy minde? he will recompense it, whether thou refuse, or whether thou chuse, and not I: therefore speake what thou knowest.33
34Let men of vnderstanding tell mee, and let a wise man hearken vnto mee.34
35Iob hath spoken without knowledge, and his words were without wisdome.
36My desire is that Iob may bee tried vnto the ende, because of his answeres for wicked men.36
