(Read all of
Job 35
)
35:2
Thinkest thou this to be right, [that] thou saidst, My
a
righteousness [is] more than God's?
(
a
) Job never spoke these words: but because he maintained his innocency, it seemed as though he would say, that God tormented him without just cause.
35:4
I will answer thee, and thy
b
companions with thee.
(
b
) Such as are in the same error.
35:5
Look unto the heavens, and see; and behold the
c
clouds [which] are higher than thou.
(
c
) If you cannot control the clouds, will you presume to instruct God?
35:6
If thou sinnest, what doest thou
d
against him? or [if] thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him?
(
d
) Neither does your sin hurt God, nor your justice profit him: for he will be glorified without you.
35:9
By reason of the multitude of oppressions they make [the oppressed]
e
to cry: they cry out by reason of the arm of the mighty.
(
e
) The wicked may hurt man and cause him to cry, who if he sought God who lends comfort would be delivered.
35:12
There they cry,
f
but none giveth answer, because of the pride of evil men.
(
f
) Because they pray not in faith, as feeling God's mercies.
35:14
Although thou sayest thou shalt not see him,
g
[yet] judgment [is] before him; therefore trust thou in him.
(
g
) God is just, however you judge him.
35:16
Therefore doth Job
h
open his mouth in vain; he multiplieth words without knowledge.
(

) For if he punished you as you deserved, you would not be able to open your mouth.
