1 Eli­hu spake more­over, and said, 2 Think­est thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righ­teous­ness is more than God's? 3 For thou saidst, What ad­van­tage will it be unto thee? and, What prof­it shall I have, if I be cleansed from my sin? 4 I will an­swer thee, and thy com­pan­ions with thee. 5 Look unto the heav­ens, and see; and be­hold the clouds which are high­er than thou. 6 If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him? or if thy trans­gres­sions be mul­ti­plied, what doest thou unto him? 7 If thou be righ­teous, what givest thou him? or what re­ceiveth he of thine hand? 8 Thy wicked­ness ­may hurt a man as thou art; and thy righ­teous­ness ­may profit the son of man. 9 By rea­son of the mul­ti­tude of op­pres­sions they make the oppressed to cry: they cry out by rea­son of the arm of the mighty. 10 But none saith, Where is God my mak­er, who giveth songs in the night; 11 Who tea­cheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wis­er than the fowls of heav­en? 12 There they cry, but none giveth an­swer, be­cause of the pride of evil men. 13 Sure­ly God will not hear van­i­ty, nei­ther will the Almighty re­gard it. 14 Al­though thou sayest thou shalt not see him, yet judg­ment is be­fore him; there­fore trust thou in him. 15 But now, be­cause it is not so, he hath vis­it­ed in his anger; yet he knoweth it not in great ex­trem­i­ty: 16 There­fore doth Job open his mouth in vain; he mul­ti­pli­eth words with­out knowl­edge.
