18:033:023 If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter,
one among a
thousand,
to shew unto man his uprightness:
18:033:024 Then he is gracious unto him, and saith,
Deliver him from
going
down to the pit: I have found a ransom.
18:033:025 His flesh shall be fresher than a child’s:
he shall return to
the
days of his youth:
18:033:026 He shall pray unto God, and he will be
favourable unto him:
and
he shall see his face with joy: for he will render
unto
man
his righteousness.
18:033:027 He looketh upon men, and if any say, I
have sinned, and
perverted
that which was right, and it profited me not;
18:033:028 He will deliver his soul from going into
the pit, and his life
shall
see the light.
18:033:029 Lo, all these things worketh God oftentimes with man,
18:033:030 To bring back his soul from the pit, to
be enlightened with
the
light of the living.
18:033:031 Mark well, O Job, hearken unto me:
hold thy peace, and I will
speak.
18:033:032 If thou hast anything to say, answer me:
speak, for I desire
to
justify thee.
18:033:033 If not, hearken unto me: hold thy
peace, and I shall teach
thee
wisdom.
18:034:001 Furthermore Elihu answered and said,
18:034:002 Hear my words, O ye wise men; and give
ear unto me, ye that
have
knowledge.
18:034:003 For the ear trieth words, as the mouth tasteth meat.
18:034:004 Let us choose to us judgment: let
us know among ourselves what
is
good.
18:034:005 For Job hath said, I am righteous:
and God hath taken away my
judgment.
18:034:006 Should I lie against my right? my wound
is incurable without
transgression.
18:034:007 What man is like Job, who drinketh up scorning like water?
18:034:008 Which goeth in company with the workers
of iniquity, and
walketh
with wicked men.
18:034:009 For he hath said, It profiteth a man nothing
that he should
delight
himself with God.
18:034:010 Therefore hearken unto me ye men of understanding:
far be it
from
God, that he should do wickedness; and from the Almighty,
that
he should commit iniquity.
18:034:011 For the work of a man shall he render unto
him, and cause
every
man to find according to his ways.
18:034:012 Yea, surely God will not do wickedly, neither
will the
Almighty
pervert judgment.
18:034:013 Who hath given him a charge over the earth?
or who hath
disposed
the whole world?
18:034:014 If he set his heart upon man, if he gather
unto himself his
spirit
and his breath;
