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