DRC, VulgClementine, KJV - Job - 35

35:1  Moreover Eliu spoke these words:

35:1  Igitur Eliu hæc rursum locutus est :

35:1  Elihu spake moreover, and said,

35:2  Doth thy thought seem right to thee, that thou shouldst say: I am more just than God?

35:2  Numquid æqua tibi videtur tua cogitatio, ut diceres : Justior sum Deo ?

35:2  Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more than God’s?

35:3  For thou saidst: That which is right doth not please thee: or what will it profit thee if I sin?

35:3  Dixisti enim : Non tibi placet quod rectum est : vel quid tibi proderit, si ego peccavero ?

35:3  For thou saidst, What advantage will it be unto thee? and, What profit shall I have, if I be cleansed from my sin?

35:4  Therefore I will answer thy words, and thy friends with thee.

35:4  Itaque ego respondebo sermonibus tuis, et amicis tuis tecum.

35:4  I will answer thee, and thy companions with thee.

35:5  Look up to heaven and see, and behold the sky, that it is higher than thee.

35:5  Suspice cælum, et intuere : et contemplare æthera quod altior te sit.

35:5  Look unto the heavens, and see; and behold the clouds which are higher than thou.

35:6  If thou sin, what shalt thou hurt him? and if thy iniquities be multiplied, what shalt thou do against him?

35:6  Si peccaveris, quid ei nocebis ? et si multiplicatæ fuerint iniquitates tuæ, quid facies contra eum ?

35:6  If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him? or if thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him?

35:7  And if thou do justly, what shalt thou give him, or what shall he receive of thy hand?

35:7  Porro si juste egeris, quid donabis ei ? aut quid de manu tua accipiet ?

35:7  If thou be righteous, what givest thou him? or what receiveth he of thine hand?

35:8  Thy wickedness may hurt a man that is like thee: and thy justice may help the son of man.

35:8  Homini qui similis tui est, nocebit impietas tua : et filium hominis adjuvabit justitia tua.

35:8  Thy wickedness may hurt a man as thou art; and thy righteousness may profit the son of man.

35:9  By reason of the multitude of oppressors they shall cry out: and shall wail for the violence of the arm of tyrants.

35:9  Propter multitudinem calumniatorum clamabunt, et ejulabunt propter vim brachii tyrannorum.

35:9  By reason of the multitude of oppressions they make the oppressed to cry: they cry out by reason of the arm of the mighty.

35:10  And he hath not said: Where is God, who made me, who hath given songs in the night?

35:10  Et non dixit : Ubi est Deus qui fecit me, qui dedit carmina in nocte ;

35:10  But none saith, Where is God my maker, who giveth songs in the night;

35:11  Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and instructeth us more than the fowls of the air.

35:11  qui docet nos super jumenta terræ, et super volucres cæli erudit nos ?

35:11  Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven?

35:12  There shall they cry, and he will not hear, because of the pride of evil men.

35:12  Ibi clamabunt, et non exaudiet, propter superbiam malorum.

35:12  There they cry, but none giveth answer, because of the pride of evil men.

35:13  God therefore will not hear in vain, and the Almighty will look into the causes of every one.

35:13  Non ergo frustra audiet Deus, et Omnipotens causas singulorum intuebitur.

35:13  Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it.

35:14  Yea, when thou shalt say: He considereth not: be judged before him, and expect him.

35:14  Etiam cum dixeris : Non considerat : judicare coram illo, et expecta eum.

35:14  Although thou sayest thou shalt not see him, yet judgment is before him; therefore trust thou in him.

35:15  For he doth not now bring on his fury, neither doth he revenge wickedness exceedingly.

35:15  Nunc enim non infert furorem suum, nec ulciscitur scelus valde.

35:15  But now, because it is not so, he hath visited in his anger; yet he knoweth it not in great extremity:

35:16  Therefore Job openeth his mouth in vain, and multiplieth words without knowledge.

35:16  Ergo Job frustra aperit os suum, et absque scientia verba multiplicat.

35:16  Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vain; he multiplieth words without knowledge.
