< Job 35 >

1 Moreover Elihu proceeded, and said:
and to answer Elihu and to say
2 Dost thou then think this to be right? Thou hast said, “I am more righteous than God.”
this to devise: think to/for justice to say righteousness my from God
3 For thou askest, “What advantage have I? What have I gained, more than if I had sinned?”
for to say what? be useful to/for you what? to gain from sin my
4 I will answer thee, And thy companions with thee.
I to return: return you speech and [obj] neighbor your with you
5 Look up to the heavens, and see! And behold the clouds, which are high above thee!
to look heaven and to see: see and to see cloud to exult from you
6 If thou sinnest, what doest thou against Him? If thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou to him?
if to sin what? to work in/on/with him and to multiply transgression your what? to make: do to/for him
7 If thou art righteous, what dost thou give him? Or what receiveth he at thy hand?
if to justify what? to give: give to/for him or what? from hand your to take: recieve
8 Thy wickedness injureth only a man like thyself, And thy righteousness profiteth only a son of man.
to/for man like you wickedness your and to/for son: child man righteousness your
9 The oppressed cry out on account of the multitude of wrongs; They cry aloud on account of the arm of the mighty.
from abundance oppression to cry out to cry from arm many
10 But none saith, “Where is God, my Maker, Who giveth songs in the night;
and not to say where? god to make me to give: give song in/on/with night
11 Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, And maketh us wiser than the birds of heaven?”
to teach/learn us from animal land: soil and from bird [the] heaven be wise us
12 There they cry aloud on account of the pride of the wicked; But he giveth no answer.
there to cry and not to answer from face: because pride bad: evil
13 For God will not hear the vain supplication, Nor will the Almighty regard it;
surely vanity: vain not to hear: hear God and Almighty not to see her
14 Much less when thou sayest thou canst not see him: Justice is with him, —only wait thou for him!
also for to say not to see him judgment to/for face: before his and to twist: anticipate to/for him
15 But now, because he hath not visited in his anger, Nor taken strict note of transgression,
and now for nothing to reckon: punish face: anger his and not to know in/on/with folly much
16 Therefore hath Job opened his mouth rashly, And multiplied words without knowledge.
and Job vanity to open lip his in/on/with without knowledge speech to multiply
