Job 35:7-16 ▼

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.

9 They which are oppressed crye out vpon the multitude, yea they crye out for the power of the mightie:

10 But none sayth, Where is God that made me? and that geueth vs occasion to praise him in the night?

11 Which teacheth vs more the the beastes of the earth, and geueth vs more wysdome then the foules of heauen.

12 If any such complaine, no man geueth aunswere, and that because of the wickednesse of proude tirauntes.

13 For God wyll not heare vanitie, neither wyll the almightie regarde it.

14 Although thou sayest to God thou wylt not regarde it: yet iudgement is before him, trust thou in him.

15 But now because his anger hath not visited, neither called men to accompt with great extremitie:

16 Therefore doth Iob open his mouth but in vaine, & he maketh many wordes without knowledge.
