Job 31~35

[bonita]

Job 31

1.  "I made a covenant with my eyes, not to look listfully at a girl.
2. For what is man's ;ot  from God above.his heritage from the Almighty on high?
3. Is it not ruin for the wicked, disaster for those who do wrong?
4. Does he not see my ways and count my every step?
5. "If I have walked in falsehood or my foot has hurried after deceit-
6. let God weigh me in honest seales and he will know that I am blameless-
7. if mys teps have turned from the path, if my heart has been led by my eyes, or if my hands have been defiled
8. then may others eat what I have sown, and may my crops be uprooted.
9. "If my heart has been enticed by a woman, or if I have lurked at my neighbor's door,
10. then may my wife grind another man's grain, and may other men sleep withj her.
11. For that would have been shameful. a sin to be judged.
12. It is a fire that burns to Destructionn; it would have uprooted my harvest.
13. "If I have denied justice to my menservants and maidservant when they had a grievan ce against me,
14. what will I do when God congronts me? Whaat will answer when called to account?
15. Did not he who made me in the womb make them? Did not thes ame one form us both within our mothers?
16. "If I have deniel the desires of the poor or let the eyes of teh widow grow weary,
17. If have kept my bread to mtself, not sharing it with the fatherless-
18. but from my youth I reared him as would a father, and from my birth I guided the widow-
19. if I have seen anyone perishing for lack of clothing, or a needy man without a garment.
20. and his heart did not bless me for warning him wiath the fleece from my sheep.
21. if I have raised my hand against thef ather;ess. knowing that I had influence in court,
22. then let my arm fall from the shoulder, let it be broken off at the joint.
23. For I dreaded destruction from God, and for fear of his splendor I xould not dod such things.
24. "If I have put my trust in gold or said to pure gold, You are my security,
25.  If I have rejoiced over my grat wealth, the fortune my hands had gained.
26. it I have regard teh sun in its radiance or the moon moving in splendor,
27. so that my heart was secretly enticed and my hand  offered them a kiss of homage,
28. then these also would be sins to be judged, for I would have been unfaithful to God on high.
29. "If I have rejoiced at my enemy's misfortune or gloated over the trouyble that came to him
30. I have not allowed my mouth to sin by incoking a curse against his life-
31. if the men of my household have never said, Who has not had his fill of Job's meat?"
32. but no staranger had to spend the night in thes treet, for my door was always open to teh traveler-
33. if I havce concealed my sin as men do, by hidding my guilt in my heart
34. because I so feared tehc rowd and so dreaded the contempt of the clans that I kept silent and would not go outside.
35. ("Oh, that I had someone to hear me! I sign now my defanse -let the Alighty answer me, let my accuser put his indictment in writing
36. Surely I would wear it on my shoulder, I would put it on like a crown
37. i would give him an account of my every steps like a prince I would  approach him,)-
38. "If muy land cries out against me and all its furrows are wet with tears.
39. if I have devoured its yield without payment or broken the spirit of its tenants.
40. then let briers come up instead of wheat and weeds instead of barely." The words of Job aare ended.

Jon 32

1.  So these three men stopped answering Jon, because he was righteous in his own eyes,
2. but Elihu son of Barakel the Buzite of the family of Ram, because very angry with Job for justitying himself rather than God.
3. He  was  also angry with the three friends, because  they had found no way to refute Job, and yet had  condemned him,
4. Now Elihu had waited before  spraking to Job because they were older than he.
5. But when he saw that the three men had nothing more to say, his anger was aroused.
6. So Elihu son of Barakel the Buzite said; "I am younbg in years, and you are old; that is why I was fearful. not daring to tell you what I know.
7. I thought, Age should speak; advanced years shoukd teach wisdom,
8. But it is the spirit in a man, the breath of the Almighty , that gives him understanding.
9. If is not only the old who are wise, not only the aged wjo understand what is right.
10. "Therefore I say, listen to me, I too will tell you what I know.
11. I waited while you spoke, I litened to your reasoning.while you were searching for words.
12. I gave you my full attention, But not one of you has proved Jon wrong. none of you has proved Job wrong, none of you has answered his arguments.
13. Do not say, We have found wisdom; let God refute him, not man.
14. But Job has not marshaled his words against me, and I will not answer him with your arguments.
15.   "They are dismayed and have no more to say, words have failed them.
16. Must I wait, now that  they are silent, now that they stand thee with no reply?
17. I too will have my say; I too will tell what I know.
18. For I am full of words, and the sprit within me compels me;
19. inside I am like bottled up wine, the new wineskins ready to burst.
20. I must speak and find reliet; Imust open my lips and reliy.
21. I will show partially to no one, nor will I flatter any man."
22. for if I were skilled in flattery, my Maker would soon take me away.

Job 33

1.  "But now, Job, listen o my words: pay attention to everything I say 
2. I am about to open my mouth; my words are on the tip of my tongu
3. "My words come from an upright heart; my lips sincerely speak what I know.
4. The Spirit of God has made me; the breath of the Almighty gives me life.
5. Answer me then. if you can; prepare yourself and confront me
6. I am just like you before God; I too have been taken from clay.
7. No fear of me should alarn=m you, nor should my hand be heavy upon you,
8. "But you have said in my hearing- I heard thev ery words-
9. "I am pure and without sin; I am clean and free from guilt.
10. Yet God has found fault with me; he considers me his enemy.
11. He fastens my feet in shackles; he keeps close watch on all my paths.
12. "But I tell you, in this you are not right, for God is greater than man
13. Why do you complain to him that he answers none of man's words?
14. For God does speak- now one way, now another- though man may not percelve i
15. In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men as they slumber in their beds,
16. he mat speak in their beds, as they  slumber in their beds
17. to turn man from wrongdoing and keep him from pride,
18. to preserve his soul from the pit, his life from perishing by the sword.
19. Or a man may be chastened on a bed of pain with constant dostress in his bones
20. so that his very being finds food repulsive, and his soul loathes the choicest meal
21. His flesh wastes away to nothing, and his bones, once hidden, now stick out.
22. His soul draws near to the pit; and his life to the messengers of death.
23. "Yet if there is an angel on his side as a mediator , one out of a thousand, to tell a  man what is right for him.
24. to be gracious to him and say, Spare him from gounf down to the pit . I have found a ransom for him[
25. then his flesh is renewed like a child's; it is restored as in the days of his youth.
26. He prays to God and finds favor with him, he sees God's face and shouts for joy; he is restored by God to his righteous state.
27. Then he comes to men and says,"I sinned and perverted what was right. but I did not get what I deserved.
28. He redeemed my soul from going down to the pit, and I will live to enjoy the light.
29. "God does all these tinmgs to a man- twice, even three times0
30. to tyrn back his soul from the pit, that the light of life may shine on him.
31. "Pay attention, Job and listen to me; be silent and I will speak.
32. If you have anything to say, answer me; speak up for I want you to be cleared,
33. But if not then listen to me; be silent, and I will teach you wisdom,"

Job 34

1.  Then Elihu said:
2. "Hear ny words, you wise men; listen to me, you men of learning.
3. For the ear tests words as the tongue tastes food
4. Let us discern for outselves what right; let us learn together what is good.
5. "Job says, I am innocent, but God denies me justice,
6. Although I am right, I am considered a liar; although I am guiltless, his arrow inflicts an incurable wound
7. What man is like Job, who drinks scorn like water?
8. He keeps company with evildoers; he assocoates with wicked men
9. For he says, It profits a man nothing when he tries to please God,
10. "So listen to me, you men of understanding. Far be it from God to do evil, from the Almighty tto do wrong
11. He repays man for what he has done; he brings upon him what his conduct deserves.
12. It is unthinkable that God would do wrong, that the Almighty would pervert justice,
13. whi appointed him over the earth? Who put him in charge of the whole world?
14. It is were his intention and he withdrew his spirit and breath.
15. all mankund would perish togehther and man would return to teh dust.
16. "If you have understanding hear this; isten to what I say.
17. Can he who hates justice govern? Will you condemn the just and mighty One!
18. Is he not the One who says to kings, You are worthless, and  to bobles, You are wicked,
19. whi shows no partiality to princes and does not favor the rich over the poor. for they are all the work of his hands?
20. They die in an instant, in the middle of the night; the people are shaken and they pass away; the mighty are removed without human hand.
21. "His eyes are on the ways of men; he sees their every step.
22. There is no dark place, no deep ahadow, whaere evildoers can hide.
23. God has no need to examine men further, that they should come before him for judgement.
24. Without inquuiry he shatters the mighty and sets up others in their place,
25.  Because  he takes  note of their deeds, he overthrows them in the night and they are crushed
26. He punished them for their wicjedness where everyone can see them.
27. Because they turned from following him and had no regard for amy of his ways.
28. They caused thec ry of the poor to cume before him, so that he heard the cry of the needy.
29. But if he remains silent, who canc onderm him? If he hides his face, who can see him? Yet he is over man and nation alikes
30. to keep a goldless man from ruling,  from laying snares for the people."\
31. "Suppose a man says to God, I am guilty but will offend no more
32. Teach me what I cannot see; if I have done wrong . I will not do so again.
33. Should God then reward you on your terms, when you refuse to repent? You must decide , not I: so tell me what you know
34. Men of understading declare, who men who hear me say to me.
35. job speaks without knowledge; his words lack insight.
36. Oh, that Jonb might be tested to the utmost for answereing like a wicked man!
37. To his sin he adds rebellion; scornfukly he claps his hands among us and multiplies his words against God,"

Job 35

1. Then Elihu said: 
2. "Do you think this is sjust? You say,"I will be dleared by God"
3. Yet you ask him, Wha profit is it me, and what do I fain by not sinning>
4. "I would like to reply to you and to your friends with you.
5. Look up at the heavens and see; gaze at the clouds so high anbove you.
6. Look up at the heavens and see give at teh clouds so high above you.
7. If you sin, how does that affect him" If your sins are many, what does that do to him?
8. Your wickedness affects only a man like yourself. and your righteousness only the sons of me.
9. "Men cry out under a load of oppression; they plead for refief  from the arm of the powerful.
10. But no one says, Wgere us God my Maker, who gives songs in the night.
11. who reaches more to us than to the beasts of the earth and makes us wiser than the birds of the air?
12. He does not anwser when men cry out because of thea rrogance of the wicked,
13. Indeed, God does not listen to their empty plea; the Almighty pays no attention to it.
14. How much less, then, will hen listen when you say that you do not see him, that your case is before him and you must wait for him.
15. and further, that his anger never punishes and he does not take the least notice of wickedness.
16. So Job opens his nouth with empty talk; without knowledge he multiples words."
