Elihu continues.
“In a moment shall they die, and the people shall be troubled at midnightnd
pass away. And the mighty shall be taken away without hand; for his eyes are
upon the ways of man, and he seeeth all his goings. There is no darkness nor
shadow of death where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves. For He will
not lay upon man more than right. That He should enter into judgment with God.
He shall break in pieces mighty men without number and set others in their
stead. Therefore He knoweth their works and He overturneth them in the night so
that they are destoyed. He striketh them as wicked men in the open sight of others.
Bcause they turned back from Him and would not consider any of their wicked
ways. So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto him, and he heareth
the cry of the afflicted. 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, that the hypocrite reign not lest the people be
ensnared. Surely it is meet to be said unto God, I have borne chastisement I
will not offend any more. That which I see not teach thou me, if I have done iniquity
I shall do no more. 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. Let men of understanding tell me, and let a wise man hearken unto me,,
Job has spoken without knowledge and his words were without wisdom. My desirei s
that Job may be tried unto the end, because of his answers for wicked men; for
he added rebellion unto his sin. He clappeth his hands among us, and multiplieth
his words against God
