< Job 36 >

1 Elihu [finished by] saying this:
And he added Elihu and he said.
2 “[Job, ] be patient with me a little longer, because I have something else to teach you. I have something else to say that God [wants you to know].
Wait for me a little so I may show you that still [are] for God words.
3 I will tell you what I have learned from many sources, in order to show that God, my creator, is just/fair.
I will bear knowledge my from afar and to maker my I will ascribe righteousness.
4 I am not saying anything to you that is false; I, who am standing in front of you, am someone who understands things (very well/perfectly) [HYP].
For truly not [are] falsehood words my [one] complete of knowledge [is] with you.
5 “Hey, God is [very] powerful, and he does not despise anyone, and he understands everything.
There! God [is] mighty and not he rejects mighty strength of heart.
6 He does not allow wicked people to remain alive, and he always acts justly toward those who are poor.
Not he preserves alive [the] wicked and [the] justice of afflicted [people] he gives.
7 He always watches over [MTY] those who are righteous; he allows them to sit on thrones [and rule] with kings, and they are honored forever.
Not he withdraws from [the] righteous eyes his and kings to the throne and he has made sit them to perpetuity and they have become exalted.
8 But if people [who commit crimes] are caught, they [are thrown into prison and] are caused to suffer by being fastened with chains.
And if [they are] bound in fetters they are caught! in cords of affliction.
9 When that happens, God shows them what they have done; he shows them the sins that they have committed, and he shows them that they have been proud/arrogant.
And he told to them work their and transgressions their that they were behaving proudly.
10 He causes them to listen [MTY] to what he is warning them, and he commands them to turn away from [doing what is] evil.
And he uncovered ear their for correction and he said that they will turn away! from wickedness.
11 If they (listen to/heed) him and serve him, [after they get out of prison] they will prosper for all the years that they are alive and be peaceful/happy.
If they will hear and they may serve [him] they will bring to an end days their in good and years their in pleasant [things].
12 But if they do not (listen/pay attention) to him, they will die violently, not knowing [why God is causing them to die].
And if not they will hear by a missile they will pass away and they may expire like not knowledge.
13 “Godless/Wicked people continue being angry, and they do not cry out for help, [even] when God is punishing them.
And [people] godless of heart they put anger not they cry for help if he has bound them.
14 They die while they are still young, disgraced because of their very immoral behavior [EUP].
It dies in youth self their and life their among the temple prostitutes.
15 But God teaches people by causing them to suffer; by afflicting them, he causes them to listen to [MTY] what he is telling them.
He rescues [the] afflicted by affliction his and he uncovers by oppression ear their.
16 “And Job, [I think that] God [wants to] bring you out of your troubles and allow you to live without distress; he wants your table to be full of very nice food.
And also he has allured you - from [the] mouth of enemy a broad place not constraint in place its and [the] quietness of table your it was full fatness.
17 But now, you are being punished [MTY] as wicked people are punished; [God] [PRS] has been punishing you (justly/as you deserve).
And judgment of [the] wicked you are full judgment and justice they take hold of [you].
18 So be careful that you are not deceived by [desiring to acquire] money or that you are not ruined by [accepting] large bribes.
For rage lest it should entice you in mockery and [the] greatness of [the] ransom may not it turn aside you.
19 [If you are deceived by those things, ] it certainly will not [RHQ] help you to cry out when you are distressed; all of your strength will not help you.
¿ Will it set in order opulence your not in distress and all [the] efforts of strength.
20 Do not wish that it would be nighttime [in order that God will not see you and punish you], because night is the time when [even] people-groups are destroyed!
May not you long for the night to go up peoples in place their.
21 Be careful not to [begin doing] evil things, because [God] has caused you to suffer to prevent you from doing evil.
Take heed may not you turn to wickedness for this you have chosen more than affliction.
22 “Hey, God is extremely powerful; there is certainly [RHQ] no teacher who teaches like he does.
There! God he is exalted in power his who? like him [is] a teacher.
23 No one has [RHQ] told him what he should do, and no one has [RHQ] said to him, ‘You have done what is wrong!’
Who? has he assigned on him way his and who? has he said you have done unrighteousness.
24 People have [always] sung to praise him, so you also should never forget to praise him for what he has done.
Remember that you will magnify work his which they have sung people.
25 Everyone has seen [what he has done], but [sometimes] we can see it only from far away.
All humankind they have looked on it human[s] he looks from a distance.
26 “Hey, God is very great, and we are not able to know how great he is, and we do not know how old he is.
There! God [is] exalted and not we know [him] [the] number of years his and not inquiry.
27 He draws water up [from the earth and puts it in clouds] and causes it to become rain.
For he draws up drops of water they refine rain to mist its.
28 The rain pours down from the sky/clouds; God causes abundant showers to fall on everyone.
Which they flow [the] clouds they drip on - humankind numerous.
29 No one can [RHQ] understand how the clouds move [across the sky] or how it thunders in the sky where God lives.
Also if anyone understands [the] spreading out of dark cloud [the] crashes of pavilion his.
30 He causes lightning to flash all around him, but he causes the bottom of the oceans to remain dark.
There! he spreads out on him light his and [the] roots of the sea he covers.
31 By providing plenty of rain for us, he enables us to have abundant food.
For by them he judges peoples he gives food to abundance.
32 [It is as though] he holds the lightning in his hands, and [then] he commands it to strike where he wants it to.
Over palms of hands he covers light and he commanded to it in an assailant.
33 When we hear his thunder, we know that there will be a storm, and the cattle know it, too.”
It tells on him roar his livestock also on [one who] comes up.
