Job 34:34-37
English Standard Version
34 Men of understanding will say to me,
and the wise man who hears me will say:
35 ‘Job (A)speaks without knowledge;
his words are without insight.’
36 Would that Job were tried to the end,
because he answers like wicked men.
37 For he adds rebellion to his sin;
he (B)claps his hands among us
and multiplies his words against God.”
Job 34:34-37
International Standard Version
Elihu’s Verdict: Job is not Wise
34 “Men of understanding, speak to me!
Are any of you men wise? Then listen to me!
35 Job has been speaking from his own ignorance,
and what he has to say lacks insight!
36 Oh, how Job needs to be given a full court trial,
as a rebuke to those who practice evil,
37 because he has been adding rebellion to his sin;
he claps his hands among us,[a]
and keeps on ranting against God.”
