Job 35:9-16
Legacy Standard Bible
9 “Because of (A)many oppressions they cry out;
They cry for help because of the arm (B)of many oppressors.
10 But (C)no one says, ‘Where is God my Maker,
Who (D)gives songs of praise in the night,
11 Who (E)teaches us more than the beasts of the earth
And makes us wiser than the birds of the heavens?’
12 There (F)they cry out, but He does not answer
Because of the pride of evil men.
13 Surely (G)God will not listen to [a]an empty cry,
Nor will the Almighty perceive it.
14 How much less when (H)you say you do not perceive Him,
The (I)case is before Him, and you must wait for Him!
15 And now, because He has not visited in His anger,
Nor has He acknowledged [b]transgression well,
16 So Job opens his mouth vainly;
He multiplies words (J)without knowledge.”
Job 35:9-16
American Standard Version
9 By reason of the multitude of oppressions they cry out;
They cry for help by reason of the arm of the mighty.
10 But none saith, Where is God my Maker,
Who giveth songs in the night,
11 Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth,
And maketh us wiser than the birds of the heavens?
12 There they cry, [a]but none giveth answer,
Because of the pride of evil men.
13 Surely God will not hear an empty cry,
Neither will the Almighty regard it.
14 How much less when thou sayest [b]thou beholdest him not,
The cause is before him, and thou waitest for him!
15 But now, because he hath not visited in his anger,
[c]Neither doth he greatly regard arrogance;
16 Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vanity;
He multiplieth words without knowledge.
