Job 34:1-8 ▼

1 And Elihu answers and says:

2 “Hear, O wise men, my words, || And, O knowing ones, give ear to me.

3 For the ear tries words, || And the palate tastes to eat.

4 Let us choose judgment for ourselves, || Let us know among ourselves what [is] good.

5 For Job has said, I have been righteous, || And God has turned aside my right,

6 Against my right do I lie? My arrow [is] mortal—without transgression.

7 Who [is] a man like Job? He drinks scoffing like water,

8 And he has traveled for company || With workers of iniquity, || So as to go with men of wickedness.
