Job 34:1-8 ▼

1 Moreover Elihu answered and said:

2 Hear my words, ye wise men; And give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge.

3 For the ear trieth words, As the palate tasteth food.

4 Let us choose for us that which is right; Let us know among ourselves what is good.

5 For Job hath said: 'I am righteous, And God hath taken away my right;

6 Notwithstanding my right I am accounted a liar; My wound is incurable, though I am without transgression.'

7 What man is like Job, Who drinketh up scorning like water?

8 Who goeth in company with the workers of iniquity, And walketh with wicked men.
