1 Then Elihu proceeded and said: | 1 After this, Eliu again spoke in this way: |
2 Do you think it right to say, "I am just rather than God?" | 2 Does it seem right to you in your thoughts, that you should say, “I am more just than God?” |
3 To say, "What does it profit me; what advantage have I more than if I had sinned?" | 3 For you said, “Having done what is right does not please you,” and, “How will it benefit you, if I sin?” |
4 I have words for a reply to you and your three companions as well. | 4 And so, I will respond to your words, and to your friends who are with you. |
5 Look up to the skies and behold; regard the heavens high above you. | 5 Look up towards heaven and consider; also, think about the sky, which is higher than you. |
6 If you sin, what injury do you do to God? Even if your offenses are many, how do you hurt him? | 6 If you sin, how will it hurt him? And if your iniquities are multiplied, what will you do against him? |
7 If you are righteous, what do you give him, or what does he receive from your hand? | 7 Furthermore, if you act justly, what will you give him, or what will he receive from your hand? |
8 Your wickedness can affect only a man like yourself; and your justice only a fellow human being. | 8 Your impiety may hurt a man who is like you, though your justice may help the son of the man. |
9 In great oppression men cry out; they call for help because of the power of the mighty, | 9 Because of the multitude of false accusers, they will cry out; and they will lament because of the strong arm of the tyrants. |
10 Saying, "Where is God, my Maker, who has given visions in the night, | 10 Yet he has not said: “Where is God, who made me, who has given songs in the night, |
11 Taught us rather than the beasts of the earth, and made us wise rather than the birds of the heavens?" | 11 who teaches us in addition to the beasts of the earth, and who educates us along with the birds of the air?” |
12 Though thus they cry out, he answers not against the pride of the wicked. | 12 There they will cry, and he will not heed them, because of the arrogance of the wicked. |
13 But it is idle to say God does not hear or that the Almighty does not take notice. | 13 Therefore, God does not hear in vain, and the Almighty will look into each and every case. |
14 Even though you say that you see him not, the case is before him; with trembling should you wait upon him. | 14 And so, when you say, “He does not examine,” be judged before him, but wait for him. |
15 But now that you have done otherwise, God's anger punishes, nor does he show concern that a man will die. | 15 For, at the present time, he does not bring forth his fury, nor does he punish sin exceedingly. |
16 Yet Job to no purpose opens his mouth, and without knowledge multiplies words. | 16 Therefore, Job has opened his mouth in vain and has multiplied words without knowledge. |
