## Text

[1] And Elihu continued: [2] “Bear with me a little longer, and I will show you
that there is more to be said on God’s behalf. [3] I get my knowledge from afar,
and I will ascribe justice to my Maker. [4] For truly my words are free of falsehood;
one perfect in knowledge is with you. [5] Indeed, God is mighty, but He despises no one;
He is mighty in strength of understanding. [6] He does not keep the wicked alive,
but He grants justice to the afflicted. [7] He does not take His eyes off the righteous,
but He enthrones them with kings
and exalts them forever. [8] And if men are bound with chains,
caught in cords of affliction, [9] then He tells them their deeds
and how arrogantly they have transgressed. [10] He opens their ears to correction
and commands that they turn from iniquity. [11] If they obey and serve Him,
then they end their days in prosperity
and their years in happiness. [12] But if they do not obey,
then they perish by the sword
and die without knowledge. [13] The godless in heart harbor resentment;
even when He binds them, they do not cry for help. [14] They die in their youth,
among the male shrine prostitutes. [15] God rescues the afflicted by their affliction
and opens their ears in oppression. [16] Indeed, He drew you from the jaws of distress
to a spacious and broad place,
to a table full of richness. [17] But now you are laden with the judgment due the wicked;
judgment and justice have seized you. [18] Be careful that no one lures you with riches;
do not let a large bribe lead you astray. [19] Can your wealth or all your mighty effort
keep you from distress? [20] Do not long for the night,
when people vanish from their homes. [21] Be careful not to turn to iniquity,
for this you have preferred to affliction. [22] Behold, God is exalted in His power.
Who is a teacher like Him? [23] Who has appointed His way for Him,
or told Him, ‘You have done wrong’? [24] Remember to magnify His work,
which men have praised in song. [25] All mankind has seen it;
men behold it from afar. [26] Indeed, God is great—beyond our knowledge;
the number of His years is unsearchable. [27] For He draws up drops of water
which distill the rain from the mist, [28] which the clouds pour out
and shower abundantly on mankind. [29] Furthermore, who can understand how the clouds spread out,
how the thunder roars from His pavilion? [30] See how He scatters His lightning around Him
and covers the depths of the sea. [31] For by these He judges the nations
and provides food in abundance. [32] He fills His hands with lightning
and commands it to strike its mark. [33] The thunder declares His presence;
even the cattle regard the rising storm.
