The King James Version Bible

Job 34:1-10

  1. Furthermore Elihu answered and said,

  2. Hear my words, O ye wise men; and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge.

  3. For the ear trieth words, as the mouth tasteth meat.

  4. Let us choose to us judgment: let us know among ourselves what is good.

  5. For Job hath said, I am righteous: and God hath taken away my judgment.

  6. Should I lie against my right? my wound is incurable without transgression.

  7. What man is like Job, who drinketh up scorning like water?

  8. Which goeth in company with the workers of iniquity, and walketh with wicked men.

  9. For he hath said, It profiteth a man nothing that he should delight himself with God.

  10. Therefore hearken unto me ye men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness; and from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.
