=====Job / Job 34 ===== ^ [[bijbels:kjv:|Terug naar Bijbel index]] ^ [[bijbels:kjv:tekst:job|Terug naar Boek index]] ^ \\ \\ [[commentaar:job34-1|1]] Furthermore Elihu answered and said, \\ [[commentaar:job34-2|2]] Hear my words, O ye wise men; and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge. \\ [[commentaar:job34-3|3]] For the ear trieth words, as the mouth tasteth meat. \\ [[commentaar:job34-4|4]] Let us choose to us judgment: let us know among ourselves what is good. \\ [[commentaar:job34-5|5]] For Job hath said, I am righteous: and God hath taken away my judgment. \\ [[commentaar:job34-6|6]] Should I lie against my right? my wound is incurable without transgression. \\ [[commentaar:job34-7|7]] What man is like Job, who drinketh up scorning like water? \\ [[commentaar:job34-8|8]] Which goeth in company with the workers of iniquity, and walketh with wicked men. \\ [[commentaar:job34-9|9]] For he hath said, It profiteth a man nothing that he should delight himself with God. \\ [[commentaar:job34-10|10]] Therefore hearken unto me, ye men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness; and from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity. \\ [[commentaar:job34-11|11]] For the work of a man shall he render unto him, and cause every man to find according to his ways. \\ [[commentaar:job34-12|12]] Yea, surely God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert judgment. \\ [[commentaar:job34-13|13]] Who hath given him a charge over the earth? or who hath disposed the whole world? \\ [[commentaar:job34-14|14]] If he set his heart upon man, if he gather unto himself his spirit and his breath; \\ [[commentaar:job34-15|15]] All flesh shall perish together, and man shall turn again unto dust. \\ [[commentaar:job34-16|16]] If now thou hast understanding, hear this: hearken to the voice of my words. \\ [[commentaar:job34-17|17]] Shall even he that hateth right govern? and wilt thou condemn him that is most just? \\ [[commentaar:job34-18|18]] Is it fit to say to a king, Thou art wicked? and to princes, Ye are ungodly? \\ [[commentaar:job34-19|19]] How much less to him that accepteth not the persons of princes, nor regardeth the rich more than the poor? for they all are the work of his hands. \\ [[commentaar:job34-20|20]] In a moment shall they die, and the people shall be troubled at midnight, and pass away: and the mighty shall be taken away without hand. \\ [[commentaar:job34-21|21]] For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he seeth all his goings. \\ [[commentaar:job34-22|22]] There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves. \\ [[commentaar:job34-23|23]] For he will not lay upon man more than right; that he should enter into judgment with God. \\ [[commentaar:job34-24|24]] He shall break in pieces mighty men without number, and set others in their stead. \\ [[commentaar:job34-25|25]] Therefore he knoweth their works, and he overturneth them in the night, so that they are destroyed. \\ [[commentaar:job34-26|26]] He striketh them as wicked men in the open sight of others; \\ [[commentaar:job34-27|27]] Because they turned back from him, and would not consider any of his ways: \\ [[commentaar:job34-28|28]] So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto him, and he heareth the cry of the afflicted. \\ [[commentaar:job34-29|29]] When he giveth quietness, who then can make trouble? and when he hideth his face, who then can behold him? whether it be done against a nation, or against a man only: \\ [[commentaar:job34-30|30]] That the hypocrite reign not, lest the people be ensnared. \\ [[commentaar:job34-31|31]] Surely it is meet to be said unto God, I have borne chastisement, I will not offend any more: \\ [[commentaar:job34-32|32]] That which I see not teach thou me: if I have done iniquity, I will do no more. \\ [[commentaar:job34-33|33]] Should it be according to thy mind? he will recompense it, whether thou refuse, or whether thou choose; and not I: therefore speak what thou knowest. \\ [[commentaar:job34-34|34]] Let men of understanding tell me, and let a wise man hearken unto me. \\ [[commentaar:job34-35|35]] Job hath spoken without knowledge, and his words were without wisdom. \\ [[commentaar:job34-36|36]] My desire is that Job may be tried unto the end because of his answers for wicked men. \\ [[commentaar:job34-37|37]] For he addeth rebellion unto his sin, he clappeth his hands among us, and multiplieth his words against God. ^ [[job33| vorig hoofdstuk]] ^ [[job35|volgend hoofdstuk]] ^
