[1] Moreover Elihu answered,
[2] “Do you think this to be your right,
or do you say, ‘My righteousness is more than God’s,’
[3] that you ask, ‘What advantage will it be to you?
What profit will I have, more than if I had sinned?’
[4] I will answer you,
and your companions with you.
[5] Look to the skies, and see.
See the skies, which are higher than you.
[6] If you have sinned, what effect do you have against him?
If your transgressions are multiplied, what do you do to him?
[7] If you are righteous, what do you give him?
Or what does he receive from your hand?
[8] Your wickedness may hurt a man as you are,
and your righteousness may profit a son of man.
[9] “By reason of the multitude of oppressions they cry out.
They cry for help by reason of the arm of the mighty.
[10] But no one says, ‘Where is God my Maker,
who gives songs in the night,
[11] who teaches us more than the animals of the earth,
and makes us wiser than the birds of the sky?’
[12] There they cry, but no one answers,
because of the pride of evil men.
[13] Surely God will not hear an empty cry,
neither will the Almighty regard it.
[14] How much less when you say you don’t see him.
The cause is before him, and you wait for him!
[15] But now, because he has not visited in his anger,
neither does he greatly regard arrogance,
[16] therefore Job opens his mouth with empty talk,
and he multiplies words without knowledge.”
King James Version
[1] Elihu H453 spake H6030 moreover, and said, H559
[2] Thinkest H2803 thou this to be right, H4941
That thou saidst, H559 My righteousness H6664 is more than God’s? H410
[3] For H3588 thou saidst, H559 What H4100 advantage H5532 will it be unto thee?
And, What profit H3276
shall I have, if I be cleansed from my sin?§ H2403
[4] I will answer H7725 H4405 thee,§
And thy companions H7453
with thee.
[5] Look H5027 unto the heavens, H8064 and see; H7200
And behold H7789 the clouds H7834 which are higher H1361 than thou.
[6] If thou sinnest, H2398 what H4100 doest H6466 thou against him?
Or if thy transgressions H6588
be multiplied, H7231 what H4100 doest H6213 thou unto him?
[7] If thou be righteous, H6663 what H4100 givest H5414 thou him?
Or what receiveth H3947
he of thine hand? H3027
[8] Thy wickedness H7562 may hurt a man H376 as thou art;
And thy righteousness H6666
may profit the son H1121 of man. H120
[9] By reason of the multitude H7230 of oppressions H6217 they make the oppressed to cry: H2199
They cry out H7768 by reason of the arm H2220 of the mighty. H7227
[10] But none saith, H559 Where is God H433 my maker, H6213
Who giveth H5414 songs H2158 in the night; H3915
[11] Who teacheth H502 us more than the beasts H929 of the earth, H776
And maketh us wiser H2449 than the fowls H5775 of heaven? H8064
[12] There H8033 they cry, H6817 but none giveth answer, H6030
Because H6440 of the pride H1347 of evil men. H7451
[13] Surely God H410 will H8085 not H3808 hear H8085 vanity, H7723
Neither will the Almighty H7706 regard H7789 it.
[14] Although H637 thou sayest H559 thou shalt not see H7789 him,
Yet judgment H1779
is before H6440 him; therefore trust H2342 thou in him.
[15] But now, because it is not so, heⓘ hath visited H6485 in his anger; H639
Yet heⓘ knoweth H3045 it not in great H3966 extremity: H6580
[16] Therefore doth Job H347 open H6475 his mouth H6310 in vain; H1892
He multiplieth H3527 words H4405 without H1097 knowledge. H1847

G4183 [10] Καὶ G2532 οὐκ G3756 εἶπεν G2036 Ποῦ G4226 ἐστιν G2076 ὁ G3588 θεὸς G2316 ὁ G3588 ποιήσας G4160 με, G3165 ὁ G3588 κατατάσσων φυλακὰς G5438 νυκτερινάς, [11] ὁ G3588 διορίζων με G3165 ἀπὸ G575 τετραπόδων G5074 γῆς, G1093 ἀπὸ G575 δὲ G1161 πετεινῶν οὐρανοῦ; G3772 [12] Ἐκεῖ G1563 κεκράξονται, G2896 καὶ G2532 οὐ G3756 μὴ G3361 εἰσακούσῃ G1522 καὶ G2532 ἀπὸ G575 ὕβρεως G5196 πονηρῶν. G4190 [13] Ἄτοπα G824 γὰρ G1063 οὐ G3756 βούλεται G1014 ὁ G3588 κύριος G2962 ἰδεῖν· G1492 αὐτὸς G846 γὰρ G1063 ὁ G3588 παντοκράτωρ G3841 ὁρατής ἐστιν G2076 [14] τῶν G3588 συντελούντων G4931 τὰ G3588 ἄνομα G459 καὶ G2532 σώσει G4982 με. G3165 Κρίθητι G2919 δὲ G1161 ἐναντίον G1726 αὐτοῦ, G846 εἰ G1487 δύνασαι G1410 αἰνέσαι G134 αὐτόν, G846 ὡς G5613 ἔστιν.
