Job 36

1 Elihu sheweth how God is just in his ways. 16 How Job's sins hinder God's blessings. 24 God's works are to be magnified.

 36:1 ¶ Elihu 453 also proceeded, 3254 z8686 and said, 559 z8799

 36:2 Suffer 3803 z8761 me a little, 2191 and I will show 2331 z8762 thee that x3588 [I have] yet x5750 to speak 4405 on God's 433 behalf.

 36:3 I will fetch 5375 z8799 my knowledge 1843 from afar, 7350 x4480 and will ascribe 5414 z8799 righteousness 6664 to my Maker. 6466 z8802

 36:4 For x3588 truly 551 my words 4405 [shall] not x3808 [be] false: 8267 he that is perfect 8549 in knowledge 1844 [is] with x5973 thee.

 36:5 Behold, x2005 God 410 [is] mighty, 3524 and despiseth 3988 z8799 not x3808 [any]: [he is] mighty 3524 in strength 3581 [and] wisdom. 3820

 36:6 He preserveth not the life 2421 z8762 x3808 of the wicked: 7563 but giveth 5414 z8799 right 4941 to the poor. 6041

 36:7 He withdraweth 1639 z8799 not x3808 his eyes 5869 from the righteous: 6662 x4480 but with x854 kings 4428 [are they] on the throne; 3678 yea, he doth establish 3427 z8686 them forever, 5331 and they are exalted. 1361 z8799

 36:8 And if x518 [they be] bound 631 z8803 in fetters, 2131 [and] be holden 3920 z8735 in cords 2256 of affliction; 6040

 36:9 Then he showeth 5046 z8686 them their work, 6467 and their transgressions 6588 that x3588 they have exceeded. 1396 z8691

 36:10 He openeth 1540 z8799 also their ear 241 to discipline, 4148 and commandeth 559 z8799 that x3588 they return 7725 z8799 from iniquity. 205 x4480

 36:11 If x518 they obey 8085 z8799 and serve 5647 z8799 [him], they shall spend 3615 z8762 their days 3117 in prosperity, 2896 and their years 8141 in pleasures. 5273

 36:12 But if x518 they obey 8085 z8799 not, x3808 they shall perish 5674 z8799 by the sword, 7973 and they shall die 1478 z8799 without x1097 knowledge. 1847

 36:13 But the hypocrites 2611 in heart 3820 heap up 7760 z8799 wrath: 639 they cry 7768 z8762 not x3808 when x3588 he bindeth 631 z8804 them.

 36:14 They 5315 die 4191 z8799 in youth, 5290 and their life 2416 [is] among the unclean. 6945

 36:15 He delivereth 2502 z8762 the poor 6041 in his affliction, 6040 and openeth 1540 z8799 their ears 241 in oppression. 3906

 36:16 Even so x637 would he have removed 5496 z8689 thee out of the strait 6310 6862 x4480 [into] a broad place, 7338 where 8478 [there is] no x3808 straitness; 4164 and that which should be set 5183 on thy table 7979 [should be] full 4390 z8804 of fatness. 1880

 36:17 But thou hast fulfilled 4390 z8804 the judgment 1779 of the wicked: 7563 judgment 1779 and justice 4941 take hold 8551 z8799 [on thee].

 36:18 Because x3588 [there is] wrath, 2534 [beware] lest x6435 he take thee away 5496 z8686 with [his] stroke: 5607 then a great y7230 x7227 ransom 3724 cannot x408 deliver 5186 z8686 thee.

 36:19 Will he esteem 6186 z8799 thy riches? 7769 [no], not x3808 gold, 1222 nor all x3605 the forces 3981 of strength. 3581

 36:20 Desire 7602 z8799 not x408 the night, 3915 when people 5971 are cut off 5927 z8800 in their place. x8478

 36:21 Take heed, 8104 z8734 regard y6437 z8799 not x6437 x408 x413 iniquity: 205 for x3588 x5921 this x2088 hast thou chosen 977 z8804 rather than affliction. 6040 x4480

 36:22 Behold, x2005 God 410 exalteth 7682 z8686 by his power: 3581 who x4310 teacheth 3384 z8688 like him? x3644

 36:23 Who x4310 hath enjoined 6485 z8804 x5921 him his way? 1870 or who x4310 can say, 559 z8804 Thou hast wrought 6466 z8804 iniquity? 5766

 36:24 Remember 2142 z8798 that x3588 thou magnify 7679 z8686 his work, 6467 which x834 men y582 x376 behold. y7891 z8790 x7789

 36:25 Every x3605 man 120 may see 2372 z8804 it; man 582 may behold 5027 z8686 [it] afar off. 7350 x4480

 36:26 Behold, x2005 God 410 [is] great, 7689 and we know 3045 z8799 [him] not x3808 neither x3808 can the number 4557 of his years 8141 be searched out. 2714

 36:27 For x3588 he maketh small 1639 z8762 the drops 5198 of water: 4325 they pour down 2212 z8799 rain 4306 according to the vapor 108 thereof:

 36:28 Which x834 the clouds 7834 do drop 5140 z8799 [and] distill 7491 z8799 upon x5921 man 120 abundantly. 7227

 36:29 Also x637 x518 can [any] understand 995 z8799 the spreadings 4666 of the clouds, 5645 [or] the noise 8663 of his tabernacle? 5521

 36:30 Behold, x2005 he spreadeth 6566 z8804 his light 216 upon x5921 it, and covereth 3680 z8765 the bottom 8328 of the sea. 3220

 36:31 For x3588 by them judgeth 1777 z8799 he the people; 5971 he giveth 5414 z8799 meat 400 in abundance. 4342 z8688

 36:32 With x5921 clouds 3709 he covereth 3680 z8765 the light; 216 and commandeth 6680 z8762 it [not to shine] by x5921 [the cloud] that cometh between. 6293 z8688

 36:33 The noise 7452 thereof showeth 5046 z8686 concerning x5921 it, the cattle 4735 also x637 concerning x5921 the vapor. 5927 z8802
