BB JOB Chapter 36

◄ JOB 36 ► ║ ═ ©

36 Elihu also proceeded, and saide: 2 Holde thee still a litle, & I shall shew thee what I haue yet to speake on gods behalfe. 3 I wyll open vnto thee yet farre higher knowledge, and wil ascribe righteousnesse vnto my maker. 4 And truely my wordes shall not be vaine, seeing he is with thee that is perfect in knowledge. 5 Beholde, the great God casteth away no man, for he him selfe is mightie in power and wysdome. 6 As for the vngodly he shall not preserue him, but shall helpe the poore to their right. 7 He shal not turne his eyes away from the righteous, but as kinges shal they be in their throne, he shal stablish them for euer, and they shalbe exalted. 8 But if they be layde in chaynes, or bounde with the bondes of trouble, 9 Then wyll he shew them their worke, & their sinnes which haue ouercome them. 10 He with punishing and nurturing of them, roundeth them in the eares, warneth them to leaue of from their wickednesse, and to amende. 11 If they now wyll take heede & serue him, they shal weare out their dayes in prosperitie, and their yeres in pleasure. 12 But if they wil not hearken, they shal go through the sworde, and perishe or euer they be aware. 13 As for hypocrites in heart, they shall heape vp wrath for them selues for they call not vpon him, though they be his prisoners. 14 Thus shal their soule perishe in foolishnes, and their lyfe among the fornicatours. 15 The poore shall he deliuer out of his affliction, and rounde them in the eare when they be in trouble. 16 Euen so would he take thee out of the straite place, into a brode place in the which there is no straitnes: yea, & make thy table quiet replenished with fatnesse. 17 Neuerthelesse, thou hast commended the iudgement of the vngodly, and euen such a iudgement & sentence shalt thou suffer. 18 And seeing there is wrath with God, beware lest he take thee away in thy wealth, & all that thou hast to redeeme thee can not deliuer thee. 19 Thinkest thou that he wyll regarde thy riches? he shall not care for golde, nor for all them that excell in strength. 20 Spend not the night in carefull thoughtes, how he destroyeth some, and bringeth other in their place. 21 But beware that thou turne not aside to wickednesse and sinne, which hitherto thou hast chosen more then affliction. 22 Beholde, God is of a mightie hie power: Where is there such a guide and lawe geuer as he? 23 Who wyll reproue him of his way? Who wil say vnto him, Thou hast done wrong? 24 Remember that thou do magnifie his worke which men do praise, 25 All men see it, yea men do beholde it a farre of. 26 Beholde, so great is God that he passeth our knowledge, neither can the number of his yeres be searched out. 27 Sometime he restrayneth the rayne, and againe he sendeth rayne by his cloudes: 28 Which rayne the cloudes do droppe, and let fall aboundantly vpon men. 29 Who can consider the spreadinges out of his cloudes, the coueringes of his tabernacle? 30 Behold, he doth stretch his light vpon it, and couereth the bottome of the sea. 31 For by these gouerneth he his people, and geueth them aboundance of meate. 32 With the cloudes he hydeth the light, and at his commaundement it breaketh out: 33 Which dashing vpon the next cloudes, shew tokens of wrath.
