Job 35:1-8 ▼

1 And Elihu answers and says:

2 “Have you reckoned this for judgment [when] you have said, || My righteousness [is] more than God’s?

3 For you say, What does it profit You? What do I profit from my sin?

4 I return words, and your friends with you,

5 Behold attentively the heavens—and see, || And behold the clouds, || They have been higher than you.

6 If you have sinned, what do you do against Him? And your transgressions have been multiplied, || What do you do to Him?

7 If you have been righteous, || What do you give to Him? Or what does He receive from your hand?

8 For a man like yourself [is] your wickedness, || And for a son of man your righteousness.
