Job Chapter 36

Gods ways are just


36:1 Elihu also proceeded, and said,
36:2 Wait a bit, and I will tell you that I have more to say on behalf of Eloahאֱלוֹהַּ

.
36:3 I will bring my knowledge from long ago, and will give credit righteousness to my Maker.
36:4 For truly my words[are] not false: the perfect One in knowledge [is] with you.
36:5 See, Eloahאֱלוֹהַּ

is mighty, and doesn’t despise any: He is mighty in strength of heart.
36:6 He doesn’t preserve the lives of the wicked: but gives right to the poor.
36:7 He doesn’t withdraw His eyes from the righteous: until they are
on the throne with kings. He does establish them [there] forever, and they are exalted.
36:8 And if they be bound in chains, or captured in cords of misery;
36:9 Then He proclaims to them their deeds, and their transgressions that they have behaved proudly.
36:10 He opens their ear to instruction, and commands that they return from iniquity.
36:11 If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.
36:12 But if they don’t obey, they shall pass away by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge.
36:13 But the ungodly in heart bring on anger: they don’t cry when he afflicts them.
36:14 They shall die young, and their life is among the sodomites.
36:15 He delivered the poor by his misery, and opens their ears by oppression.

Job’s sins hinder God’s blessings


36:16 Also would he have persuaded you out of the narrow into a broad place, where there is no narrowness; so that your table should be full of abundance.
36:17 But you have fulfilled the judgment of the wicked: judgment and justice take hold.
36:18 Because there is anger, beware lest He take you away with His scorn: then a great ransom can’t deliver you.
36:19 Will He respect your riches? no, not gold, nor all the forces of strength.
36:20 Don’t desire the night, when people are cut off in their place.
36:21 Beware, don’t turn to iniquity: for you have  chosen this rather than misery.
36:22 Look, EL אֵל

exalted by His power: who teaches like Him?
36:23 Who has instructed Him His way? or who can say, you have done wrong?
36:24 Remember that you magnify His work, or which men sing.
36:25 All man have see it; man see it from a distance.
36:26 Look, EL אֵל

is great, and we don’t know Him, the number of his years can’t be searched out.
36:27 Because He makes small the drops of water: they distill rain into mist:
36:28 Which the clouds drip down upon man abundantly.
36:29 Also can any understand the spreading out of the clouds, or the noise of His tent?
36:30 Look, He spreads His light upon it, and covers the bottom of the sea.
36:31 Because He
judges the people by them; he gives food in abundance.
36:32 He covers His hands with the lightning; and commands [it to] strike the mark.
36:33 its thunder announces it,
also the livestock  concerning what’s coming.
