Job 36 — ENGLXXUP

36 Verse 1 And Elihu further continued, and said, ^{Verse 2} Wait for me yet a little while, that I may teach thee: ^{Verse 3} Having fetched my knowledge from afar, ^{Verse 4} I will speak just things truly, ^{Verse 5} But know that the Lord will not cast off an innocent man: ^{Verse 6} He will not by any means save alive the ungodly: ^{Verse 7} He will not turn away his eyes from the righteous, ^{Verse 8} But they that are bound in fetters ^{Verse 9} And he shall recount to them their works, ^{Verse 10} But he will hearken to the righteous: ^{Verse 11} If they should hear and serve him, ^{Verse 12} But he preserves not the ungodly; because they are not willing to know the Lord, ^{Verse 13} And the hypocrites in heart will array wrath against themselves; ^{Verse 14} Therefore let their soul die in youth, ^{Verse 15} Because they afflicted the weak and helpless: ^{Verse 16} And he has also enticed thee out of the mouth of the enemy: ^{Verse 17} There is a deep gulf and a rushing stream beneath it, ^{Verse 18} But there shall be wrath upon the ungodly, ^{Verse 19} Let not thy mind willingly turn thee aside ^{Verse 20} And draw not forth all the mighty men by night, ^{Verse 21} But take heed lest thou do that which is wrong: ^{Verse 22} Behold, the Mighty One shall prevail by his strength: ^{Verse 23} And who is he that examines his works? ^{Verse 24} Remember that his works are great ^{Verse 25} Every man has seen in himself, ^{Verse 26} Behold, the Mighty One is great, and we shall not know him: ^{Verse 27} And the drops of rain are numbered by him, ^{Verse 28} The ancient heavens shall flow, ^{Verse 29} And though one should understand the outspreadings of the clouds, ^{Verse 30} Behold he will stretch his bow against him, ^{Verse 31} For by them he will judge the nations: ^{Verse 32} He has hidden the light in his hands, ^{Verse 33} The Lord will declare concerning this to his friend:
