• 36:1 Elihu continued and said:
    36:2 "Bear with me a little, and I will show you, for I have yet something to say on God's behalf.
    36:3 I will bring my knowledge from far away, and ascribe righteousness to my Maker.
    36:4 For truly my words are not false; one who is perfect in knowledge is with you.
    36:5 "Surely God is mighty and does not despise any; he is mighty in strength of understanding.
    36:6 He does not keep the wicked alive, but gives the afflicted their right.
    36:7 He does not withdraw his eyes from the righteous, but with kings on the throne he sets them forever, and they are exalted.
    36:8 And if they are bound in fetters and caught in the cords of affliction,
    36:9 then he declares to them their work and their transgressions, that they are behaving arrogantly.
    36:10 He opens their ears to instruction, and commands that they return from iniquity.
    36:11 If they listen, and serve him, they complete their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasantness.
    36:12 But if they do not listen, they shall perish by the sword, and die without knowledge.
    36:13 "The godless in heart cherish anger; they do not cry for help when he binds them.
    36:14 They die in their youth, and their life ends in shame.
    36:15 He delivers the afflicted by their affliction, and opens their ear by adversity.
    36:16 He also allured you out of distress into a broad place where there was no constraint, and what was set on your table was full of fatness.
    36:17 "But you are obsessed with the case of the wicked; judgment and justice seize you.
    36:18 Beware that wrath does not entice you into scoffing, and do not let the greatness of the ransom turn you aside.
    36:19 Will your cry avail to keep you from distress, or will all the force of your strength?
    36:20 Do not long for the night, when peoples are cut off in their place.
    36:21 Beware! Do not turn to iniquity; because of that you have been tried by affliction.
    36:22 See, God is exalted in his power; who is a teacher like him?
    36:23 Who has prescribed for him his way, or who can say, 'You have done wrong'?
    36:24 "Remember to extol his work, of which mortals have sung.
    36:25 All people have looked on it; everyone watches it from far away.
    36:26 Surely God is great, and we do not know him; the number of his years is unsearchable.
    36:27 For he draws up the drops of water; he distills his mist in rain,
    36:28 which the skies pour down and drop upon mortals abundantly.
    36:29 Can anyone understand the spreading of the clouds, the thunderings of his pavilion?
    36:30 See, he scatters his lightning around him and covers the roots of the sea.
    36:31 For by these he governs peoples; he gives food in abundance.
    36:32 He covers his hands with the lightning, and commands it to strike the mark.
    36:33 Its crashing tells about him; he is jealous with anger against iniquity.
