- 1. Elihu spake moreouer and saide:
- 2. Thinkest thou it right that thou sayest, I am more righteous then God?
- 3. For thou sayest: what aduauntage wyll it be vnto thee, and what profite shall I haue of my sinne?
- 4. Therefore wyll I geue aunswere vnto thee, aud to thy companions with thee.
- 5. Loke vnto the heauen and beholde it, consider the cloudes which are hyer then thou.
- 6. If thou hast sinned, what hast thou done against him? If thyne offences be many, what hast thou done vnto him?
- 7. If thou be righteous, what geuest thou him? or what wyll he receaue of thyne hande?
- 8. Thy wickednesse [may hurt] a man as thou art, and thy righteousnesse [may profite] the sonne of man.
- 9. They which are oppressed crye out vpon the multitude, yea they crye out for the power of the mightie:
- 10. But none sayth, Where is God that made me? and that geueth vs occasion to praise him in the night?
- 11. Which teacheth vs more the the beastes of the earth, and geueth vs more wysdome then the foules of heauen.
- 12. If any such complaine, no man geueth aunswere, and that because of the wickednesse of proude tirauntes.
- 13. For God wyll not heare vanitie, neither wyll the almightie regarde it.
- 14. Although thou sayest [to God] thou wylt not regarde it: yet iudgement is before him, trust thou in him.
- 15. But now because his anger hath not visited, neither called men to accompt with great extremitie:
- 16. Therefore doth Iob open his mouth but in vaine, & he maketh many wordes without knowledge.
