Iob 35
Biblia Sacra Vulgata
35 Igitur Eliu haec rursum locutus est:
2 Numquid aequa tibi videtur tua cogitatio, ut diceres: Justior sum Deo?
3 Dixisti enim: Non tibi placet quod rectum est: vel quid tibi proderit, si ego peccavero?
4 Itaque ego respondebo sermonibus tuis, et amicis tuis tecum.
5 Suspice caelum, et intuere: et contemplare aethera quod altior te sit.
6 Si peccaveris, quid ei nocebis? et si multiplicatae fuerint iniquitates tuae, quid facies contra eum?
7 Porro si juste egeris, quid donabis ei? aut quid de manu tua accipiet?
8 Homini qui similis tui est, nocebit impietas tua: et filium hominis adjuvabit justitia tua.
9 Propter multitudinem calumniatorum clamabunt, et ejulabunt propter vim brachii tyrannorum.
10 Et non dixit: Ubi est Deus qui fecit me, qui dedit carmina in nocte;
11 qui docet nos super jumenta terrae, et super volucres caeli erudit nos?
12 Ibi clamabunt, et non exaudiet, propter superbiam malorum.
13 Non ergo frustra audiet Deus, et Omnipotens causas singulorum intuebitur.
14 Etiam cum dixeris: Non considerat: judicare coram illo, et expecta eum.
15 Nunc enim non infert furorem suum, nec ulciscitur scelus valde.
16 Ergo Job frustra aperit os suum, et absque scientia verba multiplicat.
Job 35
New International Version
35 Then Elihu said:
2 “Do you think this is just?
You say, ‘I am in the right,(A) not God.’(B)
3 Yet you ask him, ‘What profit is it to me,[a]
and what do I gain by not sinning?’(C)
4 “I would like to reply to you
and to your friends with you.
5 Look up at the heavens(D) and see;
gaze at the clouds so high above you.(E)
6 If you sin, how does that affect him?
If your sins are many, what does that do to him?(F)
7 If you are righteous, what do you give to him,(G)
or what does he receive(H) from your hand?(I)
8 Your wickedness only affects humans like yourself,(J)
and your righteousness only other people.(K)
9 “People cry out(L) under a load of oppression;(M)
they plead for relief from the arm of the powerful.(N)
10 But no one says, ‘Where is God my Maker,(O)
who gives songs(P) in the night,(Q)
11 who teaches(R) us(S) more than he teaches[b] the beasts of the earth
and makes us wiser than[c] the birds in the sky?’
12 He does not answer(T) when people cry out
because of the arrogance(U) of the wicked.(V)
13 Indeed, God does not listen to their empty plea;
the Almighty pays no attention to it.(W)
14 How much less, then, will he listen
when you say that you do not see him,(X)
that your case(Y) is before him
and you must wait for him,(Z)
15 and further, that his anger never punishes(AA)
and he does not take the least notice of wickedness.[d](AB)
16 So Job opens his mouth with empty talk;(AC)
without knowledge he multiplies words.”(AD)
