RF JOB 34:1 Then Elihu continued to speak and said
RF JOB 34:2 Attend, you Wise Men, to my speech,
You, Philosophers, listen to me!
RF JOB 34:3 About reasons the ear can decide,
As the palate the flavors of food.
RF JOB 34:4 We can choose out the right for ourselves
And distinguish within what is best.
RF JOB 34:5 Now Job has said;—"I have been right,
But God took the verdict from me!
RF JOB 34:6 Although I am right—should I lie?—
Without fault, I am tortured to death!"
RF JOB 34:7 Whoever of men is like Job,
Like water he swallows down sin,
RF JOB 34:8 Joins the path of pursuers of vice
And associates with profligate men?
RF JOB 34:9 For he says "That it profits not man
To make himself pleasing to God."
RF JOB 34:10 But listen, you wise men:
God could not be forced to do sin
Or the Almighty to execute wrong.
RF JOB 34:11 But man's actions return on himself
And the tracks of a man find him out!
RF JOB 34:12 Most certainly God never wrongs,
The Almighty does not pervert right!
RF JOB 34:13 And who for Him organized earth?
Or who for Him fixed all the spheres?
RF JOB 34:14 If He called back the heart and the breath
And the life, to Himself, all would cease,—
RF JOB 34:15 All flesh would expire at once,
And man would return to the dust!
RF JOB 34:16 If you have understanding, hear this,
And attend to the sense of my words:
RF JOB 34:17 Could one who hates law ever rule?
And if right—would you charge him with wrong?
RF JOB 34:18 Would you say to a king, "You're a rogue?"
Or to princes, "What villains you are!"
RF JOB 34:19 Much less, to who favors not kings
Nor repulses the face of the poor;
For His hand has created them all.
RF JOB 34:20 On a sudden they die at midnight!
Men tremble and then pass away,
And the mighty fall down without strength.
RF JOB 34:21 For His eyes are on every man's paths,
And he looks upon all of their steps;
RF JOB 34:22 Nor darkness, nor shadow of death,
Can hide those who wallow in sin!
RF JOB 34:23 So He need not lay much on a man
To bring him to God to be judged.
RF JOB 34:24 He can suddenly ruin the great
And others set up in their stead
RF JOB 34:25 For He is aware of their acts,
And o'erthrows in a night, and they fall.
RF JOB 34:26 He strikes them, because they are bad,
In the place where their splendour appeared;
RF JOB 34:27 Because they turned off from His paths
And paid no respect to His ways.
RF JOB 34:28 So the weak sent their cry up to Him;—
And the shriek of the wretched He heard.
RF JOB 34:29 When He pacifies, who can disturb?
When He covers a face, who can reign?
Alike to a Nation or Man,
RF JOB 34:30 Preventing a vile man to rule,
Preventing a nation's distress!
RF JOB 34:31 This should make them exclaim to their God,
"I have sinned,—but I will not persist;
RF JOB 34:32 I see nothing,—so teach me yourself,
If wrong,—I will cease from my acts."
RF JOB 34:33 Should He reward you, as you choose
With what you dislike or would wish?
I think not.—But say what you think.
RF JOB 34:34 Men of sense will declare as I do,
And the wise men will listen to me.
RF JOB 34:35 Job has spoken beyond what he knows,
And his speeches have not had good sense.
RF JOB 34:36 I wish to see Job fairly tried,
Not turned out among wicked men,
RF JOB 34:37 Tho' rebellion he joined to his sins,
Clapped at us,—and heaped words up at GOD!
