351Moreover Elihu answered and said,+2Thinkest thou this to be [thy] right, [Or] sayest thou, My righteousness is more than God’s,+3That thou sayest, What advantage will it be unto thee? [And], What profit shall I have, more than if I had sinned?+4I will answer thee, And thy companions with thee.+5Look unto the heavens, and see; And behold the skies, which are higher than thou.+6If thou hast sinned, what effectest thou against him? And if thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him?+7If thou be righteous, what givest thou him? Or what receiveth he of thy hand?+8Thy wickedness [may hurt] a man as thou art; And thy righteousness [may profit] a son of man.+9By reason of the multitude of oppressions they cry out; They cry for help by reason of the arm of the mighty.+10But none saith, Where is God my Maker, Who giveth songs in the night,+11Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, And maketh us wiser than the birds of the heavens?+12There they cry, but none giveth answer, Because of the pride of evil men.+13Surely God will not hear an empty [cry], Neither will the Almighty regard it.+14How much less when thou sayest thou beholdest him not, The cause is before him, and thou waitest for him!+15But now, because he hath not visited in his anger, Neither doth he greatly regard arrogance;+16Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vanity; He multiplieth words without knowledge.+
