Job 35

35 Elihu went on: 2 

“Is it fair, think you--

call this your ‘rights before God’?--

to ask, ‘What do I gain,

what good is it to me, if I sin not?’

Well, I will answer you,

you and your friends.

Look up to heaven, on Mgh,

behold the skies above;

how can your sin injure God?

What are your many misdeeds to Mm?

Your innocence--is that a gain to him?

Can you be any benefit to Mm?

Your guilt affects men like yourself,

your innocence is man’s concern alone.

Eyob argues idly,

lavishing words thoughtlessly;

he never asks, ‘Where is God my Maker,

who gives men songs of gladness in the night,

who grants us better knowledge than the beasts,

more wisdom than the birds?'

God will not listen to an idle outcry,

the Almighty will not heed it-—

as when you say you ‘cannot see him’!

Hush! only wait for him.

But now, because his anger does not strike,

he is not serious about sin, you say!”
