Elihu Continues / Be Patient a While Longer
Elihu said:
Elihu also proceeded, and said,
2 Be patient a while longer; I have something else to say in God's defense. Suffer me a little, and I will shew thee that I have yet to speak on God’s behalf.
3 God always does right— and this knowledge comes straight from God. I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.
4 You can rest assured that what I say is true. For truly my words shall not be false: he that is perfect in knowledge is with thee.
5 Although God is mighty, he cares about everyone and makes fair decisions. Behold, God is mighty, and despiseth not any: he is mighty in strength and wisdom.
6 The wicked are cut down, and those who are wronged receive justice. He preserveth not the life of the wicked: but giveth right to the poor.
7 God watches over good people and places them in positions of power and honor forever. He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous: but with kings are they on the throne; yea, he doth establish them for ever, and they are exalted.
8 But when people are prisoners of suffering and pain, * And if they be bound in fetters, and be holden in cords of affliction;
9 God points out their sin and their pride, Then he sheweth them their work, and their transgressions that they have exceeded.
10 then he warns them to turn back to him. He openeth also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity.
11 And if they obey, they will be successful and happy from then on. If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.
12 But if they foolishly refuse, they will be rewarded with a violent death. But if they obey not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge.
13
Godless People Are Too Angry
Godless people are too angry to ask God for help when he punishes them.
But the hypocrites in heart heap up wrath: they cry not when he bindeth them.
14 So they die young in shameful disgrace. They die in youth, and their life is among the unclean.
15 Hard times and trouble are God's way of getting our attention! He delivereth the poor in his affliction, and openeth their ears in oppression.
16 And at this very moment, God deeply desires to lead you from trouble and to spread your table with your favorite food. Even so would he have removed thee out of the strait into a broad place, where there is no straitness; and that which should be set on thy table should be full of fatness.
17 Now that the judgment for your sins has fallen upon you, But thou hast fulfilled the judgment of the wicked: judgment and justice take hold on thee.
18 don't let your anger and the pain you endured make you sneer at God. Because there is wrath, beware lest he take thee away with his stroke: then a great ransom cannot deliver thee.
19 Your reputation and riches cannot protect you from distress, Will he esteem thy riches? no, not gold, nor all the forces of strength.
20 nor can you find safety in the dark world below. Desire not the night, when people are cut off in their place.
21 Be on guard! Don't turn to evil as a way of escape. Take heed, regard not iniquity: for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction.
22 God's power is unlimited. He needs no teachers Behold, God exalteth by his power: who teacheth like him?
23 to guide or correct him. Who hath enjoined him his way? or who can say, Thou hast wrought iniquity?
24
Others Have Praised God
Others have praised God for what he has done, so join with them.
Remember that thou magnify his work, which men behold.
25 From down here on earth, everyone has looked up and seen Every man may see it; man may behold it afar off.
26 how great God is— God is more than we imagine; no one can count the years he has lived. * Behold, God is great, and we know him not, neither can the number of his years be searched out.
27 God gathers moisture into the clouds For he maketh small the drops of water: they pour down rain according to the vapour thereof:
28 and supplies us with rain. Which the clouds do drop and distil upon man abundantly.
29 Who can understand how God scatters the clouds and speaks from his home in the thunderstorm? Also can any understand the spreadings of the clouds, or the noise of his tabernacle?
30 And when God sends lightning, it can be seen at the bottom of the sea. Behold, he spreadeth his light upon it, and covereth the bottom of the sea.
31 By producing such rainstorms, God rules the world and provides us with food. For by them judgeth he the people; he giveth meat in abundance.
32 Each flash of lightning is one of his arrows striking its target, With clouds he covereth the light; and commandeth it not to shine by the cloud that cometh betwixt.
33 and the thunder tells of his anger against sin. The noise thereof sheweth concerning it, the cattle also concerning the vapour.
