6 If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him? or if thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him?
6 If you sin, how does that affect him? If your sins are many, what does that do to him?
6 If you have sinned, what do you accomplish against him? And if your transgressions are multiplied, what do you do to him?
6 If you sin, what difference could that make to God? No matter how much you sin, will it matter to him?
6 If you sin, what do you accomplish against Him? Or, if your transgressions are multiplied, what do you do to Him?
6 If you sin, how does that affect God? Even if you sin again and again, what effect will it have on him?
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Job 35:6
Commentary on Job 35:1-8
(Read Job 35:1-8)
Elihu reproves Job for justifying himself more than God, and called his attention to the heavens. They are far above us, and God is far above them; how much then is he out of the reach, either of our sins or of our services! We have no reason to complain if we have not what we expect, but should be thankful that we have better than we deserve.
