Job 34:27-37
-
27 Because they turned back from him, and would not consider any of his ways:
-
28 So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto him, and he heareth the cry of the afflicted.
-
29 When he giveth quietness, who then can make trouble? and when he hideth his face, who then can behold him? whether it be done against a nation, or against a man only:
-
30 That the hypocrite reign not, lest the people be ensnared.
-
31 Surely it is meet to be said unto God, I have borne chastisement, I will not offend any more:
-
32 That which I see not teach thou me: if I have done iniquity, I will do no more.
-
33 Should it be according to thy mind? he will recompense it, whether thou refuse, or whether thou choose; and not I: therefore speak what thou knowest.
-
34 Let men of understanding tell me, and let a wise man hearken unto me.
-
35 Job hath spoken without knowledge, and his words were without wisdom.
-
36 My desire is that Job may be tried unto the end because of his answers for wicked men.
-
37 For he addeth rebellion unto his sin, he clappeth his hands among us, and multiplieth his words against God.
