< Job 36 >

1 And he added Elihu and he said.
And Elihu continued:
2 Wait for me a little so I may show you that still [are] for God words.
“Bear with me a little longer, and I will show you that there is more to be said on God’s behalf.
3 I will bear knowledge my from afar (and to maker my *LAB(h)*) I will ascribe righteousness.
I get my knowledge from afar, and I will ascribe justice to my Maker.
4 For truly not [are] falsehood words my [one] complete of knowledge [is] with you.
For truly my words are free of falsehood; one perfect in knowledge is with you.
5 There! God [is] mighty and not he rejects mighty strength of heart.

7 Not he withdraws from [the] righteous eyes his and with kings to the throne and he has made sit them to perpetuity and they have become exalted.
He does not take His eyes off the righteous, but He enthrones them with kings and exalts them forever.
8 And if [they are] bound in fetters they are caught! in cords of affliction.
And if men are bound with chains, caught in cords of affliction,
9 And he told to them work their and transgressions their that they were behaving proudly.
then He tells them their deeds and how arrogantly they have transgressed.
10 And he uncovered ear their for correction and he said that they will turn away! from wickedness.
He opens their ears to correction and commands that they turn from iniquity.
11 If they will hear and they may serve [him] they will bring to an end days their in good and years their in pleasant [things].
If they obey and serve Him, then they end their days in prosperity and their years in happiness.
12 And if not they will hear by a missile they will pass away and they may expire like not knowledge.
But if they do not obey, then they perish by the sword and die without knowledge.
13 And [people] godless of heart they put anger not they cry for help if he has bound them.
The godless in heart harbor resentment; even when He binds them, they do not cry for help.

15 He rescues [the] afflicted by affliction his and he uncovers by oppression ear their.
God rescues the afflicted by their affliction and opens their ears in oppression.
16 And also he has allured you - from [the] mouth of enemy a broad place not constraint in place its and [the] quietness of table your it was full fatness.
Indeed, He drew you from the jaws of distress to a spacious and broad place, to a table full of richness.
17 And judgment of [the] wicked you are full judgment and justice they take hold of [you].
But now you are laden with the judgment due the wicked; judgment and justice have seized you.
18 For rage lest it should entice you in mockery and [the] greatness of [the] ransom may not it turn aside you.
Be careful that no one lures you with riches; do not let a large bribe lead you astray.
19 ¿ Will it set in order opulence your not in distress and all [the] efforts of strength.
Can your wealth or all your mighty effort keep you from distress?
20 May not you long for the night to go up peoples in place their.
Do not long for the night, when people vanish from their homes.
21 Take heed may not you turn to wickedness for this you have chosen more than affliction.
Be careful not to turn to iniquity, for this you have preferred to affliction.
22 There! God he is exalted in power his who? like him [is] a teacher.
Behold, God is exalted in His power. Who is a teacher like Him?
23 Who? has he assigned on him way his and who? has he said you have done unrighteousness.
Who has appointed His way for Him, or told Him, ‘You have done wrong’?
24 Remember that you will magnify work his which they have sung people.
Remember to magnify His work, which men have praised in song.
25 All humankind they have looked on it human[s] he looks from a distance.
All mankind has seen it; men behold it from afar.
26 There! God [is] exalted and not we know [him] [the] number of years his and not inquiry.
Indeed, God is great—beyond our knowledge; the number of His years is unsearchable.
27 For he draws up drops of water they refine rain to mist its.
For He draws up drops of water which distill the rain from the mist,
28 Which they flow [the] clouds they drip on - humankind numerous.
which the clouds pour out and shower abundantly on mankind.
29 Also if anyone understands [the] spreading out of dark cloud [the] crashes of pavilion his.
Furthermore, who can understand how the clouds spread out, how the thunder roars from His pavilion?
30 There! he spreads out on him light his and [the] roots of the sea he covers.
See how He scatters His lightning around Him and covers the depths of the sea.
31 For by them he judges peoples he gives food to abundance.
For by these He judges the nations and provides food in abundance.

He fills His hands with lightning and commands it to strike its mark.
33 It tells on him roar his livestock also on [one who] comes up.
The thunder declares His presence; even the cattle regard the rising storm.
