Job 36:1-9 ▼

1 And Elihu added and said:

2 “Surround unto me a little, and I will show you, that there are words yet to God.

3 I will lift up my knowledge from afar, and to my Maker I will ascribe righteousness.

4 For truly, my words are not false; the one complete in knowledge is with you.

5 Behold, God is mighty, and He does not despise; He is mighty in strength of heart.

6 He does not keep the wicked alive, and He gives justice to the afflicted.

7 He does not take away His eyes from the righteous, but they are with kings on the throne; and He has seated them forever, and they are exalted.

8 And if they are bound in the fetters, caught in the cords of affliction,

9 then he declares to them their work and their transgressions, because they magnified themselves.
