Moreover Elihu{H453} answered{H6030} and said,{H559}

Thinkest{H2803} thou this to be [thy] right,{H4941} [Or] sayest{H559} thou, My righteousness{H6664} is more than God's,{H410}

That thou sayest,{H559} What advantage{H5532} will it be unto thee? [And], What profit{H3276} shall I have, more than if I had sinned?{H2403}

I will answer{H7725} thee, And thy companions{H7453} with thee.

Look{H5027} unto the heavens,{H8064} and see;{H7200} And behold{H7789} the skies,{H7834} which are higher{H1361} than thou.

If thou hast sinned,{H2398} what effectest{H6466} thou against him? And if thy transgressions{H6588} be multiplied,{H7231} what doest{H6213} thou unto him?

If thou be righteous,{H6663} what givest{H5414} thou him? Or what receiveth{H3947} he of thy hand?{H3027}

Thy wickedness{H7562} [may hurt] a man{H376} as thou art; And thy righteousness{H6666} [may profit] a son{H1121} of man.{H120}

By reason of the multitude{H7230} of oppressions{H6217} they cry out;{H7768} They cry{H2199} for help by reason of the arm{H2220} of the mighty.{H7227}

But none saith,{H559} Where is God{H433} my Maker,{H6213} Who giveth{H5414} songs{H2158} in the night,{H3915}

Who teacheth{H502} us more than the beasts{H929} of the earth,{H776} And maketh us wiser{H2449} than the birds{H5775} of the heavens?{H8064}

There they cry,{H6817} but none giveth answer,{H6030} Because{H6440} of the pride{H1347} of evil men.{H7451}

Surely God{H410} will not hear{H8085} an empty{H7723} [cry], Neither will the Almighty{H7706} regard{H7789} it.

How{H637} much less when thou sayest{H559} thou beholdest{H7789} him not, The cause{H1779} is before{H6440} him, and thou waitest{H2342} for him!

But now, because he hath not visited{H6485} in his anger,{H639} Neither doth he greatly{H3966} regard{H3045} arrogance;{H6580}

Therefore doth Job{H347} open{H6475} his mouth{H6310} in vanity;{H1892} He multiplieth{H3527} words{H4405} without{H1097} knowledge.{H1847}
