Job 36

1 ♥ 📝 E lihu^H453 also proceeded,^H3254 and said,^H559

2 ♥ 📝 Suffer^H3803 me a little,^H2191 and I will show^H2331 thee; For I have yet somewhat to say^H4405 on God's^H433 behalf.

3 ♥ 📝 I will fetch^H5375 my knowledge^H1843 from afar,^H7350 And will ascribe^H5414 righteousness^H6664 to my Maker.^H6466

4 ♥ 📝 For truly^H551 my words^H4405 are not false:^H8267 One that is perfect^H8549 in knowledge^H1844 is with thee.

5 ♥ 📝 Behold, God^H410 is mighty,^H3524 and despiseth^H3988 not any: He is mighty^H3524 in strength^H3581 of understanding.^H3820

6 ♥ 📝 He preserveth not the life^H2421 of the wicked,^H7563 But giveth^H5414 to the afflicted^H6041 [their] right.^H4941

7 ♥ 📝 He withdraweth^H1639 not his eyes^H5869 from the righteous:^H6662 But with kings^H4428 upon the throne^H3678 He setteth^H3427 them for ever,^H5331 and they are exalted.^H1361

8 ♥ 📝 And if they be bound^H631 in fetters,^H2131 And be taken^H3920 in the cords^H2256 of afflictions;^H6040

10 ♥ 📝 He openeth^H1540 also their ear^H241 to instruction,^H4148 And commandeth^H559 that they return^H7725 from iniquity.^H205

11 ♥ 📝 If they hearken^H8085 and serve^H5647 [him], They shall spend^H3615 their days^H3117 in prosperity,^H2896 And their years^H8141 in pleasures.^H5273

12 ♥ 📝 But if they hearken^H8085 not, they shall perish^H5674 by the sword,^H7973 And they shall die^H1478 without knowledge.^H1847

13 ♥ 📝 But they that are godless^H2611 in heart^H3820 lay up^H7760 anger:^H639 They cry^H7768 not for help when he bindeth^H631 them.

14 ♥ 📝 They^H5315 die^H4191 in youth,^H5290 And their life^H2416 [perisheth] among the unclean.^H6945

16 ♥ 📝 Yea, he would have allured^H5496 thee out of distress^H6310 Into a broad place,^H7338 where^H8478 there is no straitness;^H4164 And that which is set^H5183 on thy table^H7979 would be full^H4390 of fatness.^H1880

17 ♥ 📝 But thou art full^H4390 of the judgment^H1779 of the wicked:^H7563 Judgment^H1779 and justice^H1779 take hold^H8551 [on thee].

18 ♥ 📝 For let not wrath^H2534 stir thee up against^H5496 chastisements;^H5607 Neither let the greatness^H7230 of the ransom^H3724 turn thee aside.^H5186

19 ♥ 📝 Will thy cry^H7769 avail,^H6186 [that thou be] not in distress,^H1222 Or all the forces^H3981 of [thy] strength?^H3581

20 ♥ 📝 Desire^H7602 not the night,^H3915 When peoples^H5971 are cut off^H5927 in their place.

21 ♥ 📝 Take heed,^H8104 regard^H6437 not iniquity:^H205 For this hast thou chosen^H977 rather than affliction.^H6040

23 ♥ 📝 Who hath enjoined^H6485 him his way?^H1870 Or who can say,^H559 Thou hast wrought^H6466 unrighteousness?^H5766

24 ♥ 📝 Remember^H2142 that thou magnify^H7679 his work,^H6467 Whereof men^H582 have sung.^H7891

25 ♥ 📝 All men^H120 have looked^H2372 thereon; Man^H582 beholdeth^H5027 it afar off.^H7350

26 ♥ 📝 Behold, God^H410 is great,^H7689 and we know^H3045 him not; The number^H4557 of his years^H8141 is unsearchable.^H2714

27 ♥ 📝 For he draweth up^H1639 the drops^H5198 of water,^H4325 Which distil^H2212 in rain^H4306 from his vapor,^H108

28 ♥ 📝 Which the skies^H7834 pour down^H7491 And drop^H5140 upon man^H120 abundantly.^H7227

29 ♥ 📝 Yea, can any understand^H995 the spreadings^H4666 of the clouds,^H5645 The thunderings^H8663 of his pavilion?^H5521

30 ♥ 📝 Behold, he spreadeth^H6566 his light^H216 around him; And he covereth^H3680 the bottom^H8328 of the sea.^H3220

31 ♥ 📝 For by these he judgeth^H1777 the peoples;^H5971 He giveth^H5414 food^H400 in abundance.^H4342

32 ♥ 📝 He covereth^H3680 his hands^H3709 with the lightning,^H216 And giveth it a charge^H6680 that it strike the mark.^H6293

33 ♥ 📝 The noise^H7452 thereof telleth^H5046 concerning him, The cattle^H4735 also concerning [the storm]^H5927 that cometh up.
