Job Chapters 35-37

Elihu Condemns Job
Job 35:1  Elihu spake moreover, and said, 
Job 35:2  Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more than God's? 
Job 35:3  For thou saidst, What advantage will it be unto thee? and, What profit shall I have, if I be cleansed from my sin? 
Job 35:4  I will answer thee, and thy companions with thee. 
Job 35:5  Look unto the heavens, and see; and behold the clouds which are higher than thou. 
Job 35:6  If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him? or if thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him? 
Job 35:7  If thou be righteous, what givest thou him? or what receiveth he of thine hand? 
Job 35:8  Thy wickedness may hurt a man as thou art; and thy righteousness may profit the son of man. 
Job 35:9  By reason of the multitude of oppressions they make the oppressed to cry: they cry out by reason of the arm of the mighty. 
Job 35:10  But none saith, Where is God my maker, who giveth songs in the night; 
Job 35:11  Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven? 
Job 35:12  There they cry, but none giveth answer, because of the pride of evil men. 
Job 35:13  Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it. 
Job 35:14  Although thou sayest thou shalt not see him, yet judgment is before him; therefore trust thou in him. 
Job 35:15  But now, because it is not so, he hath visited in his anger; yet he knoweth it not in great extremity: 
Job 35:16  Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vain; he multiplieth words without knowledge. 

Elihu Extols God's Greatness
Job 36:1  Elihu also proceeded, and said, 
Job 36:2  Suffer me a little, and I will shew thee that I have yet to speak on God's behalf. 
Job 36:3  I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker. 
Job 36:4  For truly my words shall not be false: he that is perfect in knowledge is with thee. 
Job 36:5  Behold, God is mighty, and despiseth not any: he is mighty in strength and wisdom. 
Job 36:6  He preserveth not the life of the wicked: but giveth right to the poor. 
Job 36:7  He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous: but with kings are they on the throne; yea, he doth establish them for ever, and they are exalted. 
Job 36:8  And if they be bound in fetters, and be holden in cords of affliction; 
Job 36:9  Then he sheweth them their work, and their transgressions that they have exceeded. 
Job 36:10  He openeth also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity. 
Job 36:11  If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures. 
Job 36:12  But if they obey not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge. 
Job 36:13  But the hypocrites in heart heap up wrath: they cry not when he bindeth them. 
Job 36:14  They die in youth, and their life is among the unclean. 
Job 36:15  He delivereth the poor in his affliction, and openeth their ears in oppression. 
Job 36:16  Even so would he have removed thee out of the strait into a broad place, where there is no straitness; and that which should be set on thy table should be full of fatness. 
Job 36:17  But thou hast fulfilled the judgment of the wicked: judgment and justice take hold on thee. 
Job 36:18  Because there is wrath, beware lest he take thee away with his stroke: then a great ransom cannot deliver thee. 
Job 36:19  Will he esteem thy riches? no, not gold, nor all the forces of strength. 
Job 36:20  Desire not the night, when people are cut off in their place. 
Job 36:21  Take heed, regard not iniquity: for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction. 
Job 36:22  Behold, God exalteth by his power: who teacheth like him? 
Job 36:23  Who hath enjoined him his way? or who can say, Thou hast wrought iniquity? 
Job 36:24  Remember that thou magnify his work, which men behold. 
Job 36:25  Every man may see it; man may behold it afar off. 
Job 36:26  Behold, God is great, and we know him not, neither can the number of his years be searched out. 
Job 36:27  For he maketh small the drops of water: they pour down rain according to the vapour thereof: 
Job 36:28  Which the clouds do drop and distil upon man abundantly. 
Job 36:29  Also can any understand the spreadings of the clouds, or the noise of his tabernacle? 
Job 36:30  Behold, he spreadeth his light upon it, and covereth the bottom of the sea. 
Job 36:31  For by them judgeth he the people; he giveth meat in abundance. 
Job 36:32  With clouds he covereth the light; and commandeth it not to shine by the cloud that cometh betwixt. 
Job 36:33  The noise thereof sheweth concerning it, the cattle also concerning the vapour. 

Elihu Proclaims God's Majesty
Job 37:1  At this also my heart trembleth, and is moved out of his place. 
Job 37:2  Hear attentively the noise of his voice, and the sound that goeth out of his mouth. 
Job 37:3  He directeth it under the whole heaven, and his lightning unto the ends of the earth. 
Job 37:4  After it a voice roareth: he thundereth with the voice of his excellency; and he will not stay them when his voice is heard. 
Job 37:5  God thundereth marvellously with his voice; great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend. 
Job 37:6  For he saith to the snow, Be thou on the earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength. 
Job 37:7  He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work. 
Job 37:8  Then the beasts go into dens, and remain in their places. 
Job 37:9  Out of the south cometh the whirlwind: and cold out of the north. 
Job 37:10  By the breath of God frost is given: and the breadth of the waters is straitened. 
Job 37:11  Also by watering he wearieth the thick cloud: he scattereth his bright cloud: 
Job 37:12  And it is turned round about by his counsels: that they may do whatsoever he commandeth them upon the face of the world in the earth. 
Job 37:13  He causeth it to come, whether for correction, or for his land, or for mercy. 
Job 37:14  Hearken unto this, O Job: stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God. 
Job 37:15  Dost thou know when God disposed them, and caused the light of his cloud to shine? 
Job 37:16  Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him which is perfect in knowledge? 
Job 37:17  How thy garments are warm, when he quieteth the earth by the south wind? 
Job 37:18  Hast thou with him spread out the sky, which is strong, and as a molten looking glass? 
Job 37:19  Teach us what we shall say unto him; for we cannot order our speech by reason of darkness. 
Job 37:20  Shall it be told him that I speak? if a man speak, surely he shall be swallowed up. 
Job 37:21  And now men see not the bright light which is in the clouds: but the wind passeth, and cleanseth them. 
Job 37:22  Fair weather cometh out of the north: with God is terrible majesty. 
Job 37:23  Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: he is excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will not afflict. 
Job 37:24  Men do therefore fear him: he respecteth not any that are wise of heart.
