Verse
Job - ch 36 v 1 - 20
- Eliu also proceeded, and said :
- Suffer me a little, and I will shew thee : for I have yet somewhat to speak in God's behalf.
- I will repeat my knowledge from the beginning, and I will prove my Maker just.
- For indeed my words are without a lie, and perfect knowledge shall be proved to thee.
- God doth not cast away the mighty, whereas he himself also is mighty.
- But he saveth not the wicked, and he giveth judgment to the poor.
- He will not take away his eyes from the just, and he placeth kings on the throne for ever, and they are exalted.
- And if they shall be in chains, and be bound with the cords of poverty :
- He shall shew them their works, and their wicked deeds, because they have been violent.
- He also shall open their ear, to correct them : and shall speak, that they may return from iniquity.
- If they shall hear and observe, they shall accomplish their days in good, and their years in glory.
- But if they hear not, they shall pass by the sword, and shall be consumed in folly.
- Dissemblers and crafty men prove the wrath of God, neither shall they cry when they are bound.
- Their soul shall die in a storm, and their life among the effeminate.
- He shall deliver the poor out of his distress, and shall open his ear in affliction.
- Therefore he shall set thee at large out of the narrow mouth, and which hath no foundation under it : and the rest of thy table shall be full of fatness.
- Thy cause hath been judged as that of the wicked, cause and judgment thou shalt recover.
- Therefore let not anger overcome thee to oppress any man : neither let multitude of gifts turn thee aside.
- Lay down thy greatness without tribulation, and all the mighty of strength.
- Prolong not the night that people may come up for them.
