35 Then Elihu went on:
2 Thinkest thou this to be just,
Dost thou call it they right before God,
3 To ask, "What advantage is mine?
What the better am I, if I sin not?"
4 Well, I will give thee an answer,
And thy three friends as well.
5 Look to the heavens and see,
And observe the clouds high overhead.
6 what effect hath thy sin upon Him?
What cares He for thy many transgressions?
7 What gain comes to Him from thy righteousness?
What receives He from thy hand?
8 ’Tis to men like thyself thy sin matters,
’Tis mortals thy righteousness touches.
9 Under sore oppression men cry
For help from the arm of the tyrant;
10 But none saith, "Where is God my Creator?"–
The Giver of songs in the night,
11 Who grants us more knowledge than beasts,
And more wisdom than birds of the air.
12 Then they cry, but receive no answer,
Because of their impious pride.
13 For to idle cries God will not listen,
Nor will the Almighty regard them.
14 And when He seems not to regard thee,
Be still and wait patiently for Him.
15 But now that His wrath doth not punish,
And sin He not greatly regardeth,
16 Job opens his mouth thus idly,
And poureth forth words without knowledge.
