< Job 35 >

1 After this, Eliu again spoke in this way:
and to answer Elihu and to say
2 Does it seem right to you in your thoughts, that you should say, “I am more just than God?”
this to devise: think to/for justice to say righteousness my from God
3 For you said, “Having done what is right does not please you,” and, “How will it benefit you, if I sin?”
for to say what? be useful to/for you what? to gain from sin my
4 And so, I will respond to your words, and to your friends who are with you.
I to return: return you speech and [obj] neighbor your with you
5 Look up towards heaven and consider; also, think about the sky, which is higher than you.
to look heaven and to see: see and to see cloud to exult from you
6 If you sin, how will it hurt him? And if your iniquities are multiplied, what will you do against him?
if to sin what? to work in/on/with him and to multiply transgression your what? to make: do to/for him
7 Furthermore, if you act justly, what will you give him, or what will he receive from your hand?
if to justify what? to give: give to/for him or what? from hand your to take: recieve
8 Your impiety may hurt a man who is like you, though your justice may help the son of the man.
to/for man like you wickedness your and to/for son: child man righteousness your
9 Because of the multitude of false accusers, they will cry out; and they will lament because of the strong arm of the tyrants.
from abundance oppression to cry out to cry from arm many
10 Yet he has not said: “Where is God, who made me, who has given songs in the night,
and not to say where? god to make me to give: give song in/on/with night
11 who teaches us in addition to the beasts of the earth, and who educates us along with the birds of the air?”
to teach/learn us from animal land: soil and from bird [the] heaven be wise us
12 There they will cry, and he will not heed them, because of the arrogance of the wicked.
there to cry and not to answer from face: because pride bad: evil
13 Therefore, God does not hear in vain, and the Almighty will look into each and every case.
surely vanity: vain not to hear: hear God and Almighty not to see her
14 And so, when you say, “He does not examine,” be judged before him, but wait for him.
also for to say not to see him judgment to/for face: before his and to twist: anticipate to/for him
15 For, at the present time, he does not bring forth his fury, nor does he punish sin exceedingly.
and now for nothing to reckon: punish face: anger his and not to know in/on/with folly much
16 Therefore, Job has opened his mouth in vain and has multiplied words without knowledge.
and Job vanity to open lip his in/on/with without knowledge speech to multiply
