Job 36:1-4
The Message
Those Who Learn from Their Suffering
36 1-4 Here Elihu took a deep breath, but kept going:
“Stay with me a little longer. I’ll convince you.
There’s still more to be said on God’s side.
I learned all this firsthand from the Source;
everything I know about justice I owe to my Maker himself.
Trust me, I’m giving you undiluted truth;
believe me, I know these things inside and out.

2 “Bear with me a little, and I will show you,
for I have yet something to say on God's behalf.

and ascribe (B)righteousness to my (C)Maker.
