Job 36:1-10
-
1 Elihu also proceeded, and said,
-
2 Suffer me a little, and I will shew thee that I have yet to speak on God's behalf.
-
3 I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.
-
4 For truly my words shall not be false: he that is perfect in knowledge is with thee.
-
5 Behold, God is mighty, and despiseth not any: he is mighty in strength and wisdom.
-
6 He preserveth not the life of the wicked: but giveth right to the poor.
-
7 He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous: but with kings are they on the throne; yea, he doth establish them for ever, and they are exalted.
-
8 And if they be bound in fetters, and be holden in cords of affliction;
-
9 Then he sheweth them their work, and their transgressions that they have exceeded.
-
10 He openeth also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity.
