<TITLE>Job 35</TITLE><BR>Job 35<BR>1 Elihu spake moreover, and said,<BR>2 Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more than God's?<BR>3 For thou saidst, What advantage will it be unto thee? and, What profit shall I have, if I be cleansed from my sin?<BR>4 I will answer thee, and thy companions with thee.<BR>5 Look unto the heavens, and see; and behold the clouds which are higher than thou.<BR>6 If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him? or if thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him?<BR>7 If thou be righteous, what givest thou him? or what receiveth he of thine hand?<BR>8 Thy wickedness may hurt a man as thou art; and thy righteousness may profit the son of man.<BR>9 By reason of the multitude of oppressions they make the oppressed to cry: they cry out by reason of the arm of the mighty.<BR>10 But none saith, Where is God my maker, who giveth songs in the night;<BR>11 Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven?<BR>12 There they cry, but none giveth answer, because of the pride of evil men.<BR>13 Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it.<BR>14 Although thou sayest thou shalt not see him, yet judgment is before him; therefore trust thou in him.<BR>15 But now, because it is not so, he hath visited in his anger; yet he knoweth it not in great extremity:<BR>16 Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vain; he multiplieth words without knowledge.<BR><BR><BR>
