Job 35:1-8 ▼

1 Elihu spake moreouer and saide:

2 Thinkest thou it right that thou sayest, I am more righteous then God?

3 For thou sayest: what aduauntage wyll it be vnto thee, and what profite shall I haue of my sinne?

4 Therefore wyll I geue aunswere vnto thee, aud to thy companions with thee.

5 Loke vnto the heauen and beholde it, consider the cloudes which are hyer then thou.

6 If thou hast sinned, what hast thou done against him? If thyne offences be many, what hast thou done vnto him?

7 If thou be righteous, what geuest thou him? or what wyll he receaue of thyne hande?

8 Thy wickednesse may hurt a man as thou art, and thy righteousnesse may profite the sonne of man.
