1Then Elihu continued, saying:1וַיַּ֥עַן אֱלִיה֗וּ וַיֹּאמַֽר׃
2Do you think it is just when you say, "I am righteous before God"?2הֲ֭זֹאת חָשַׁ֣בְתָּ לְמִשְׁפָּ֑ט אָ֝מַ֗רְתָּ צִדְקִ֥י מֵאֵֽל׃
3For you ask, "What does it profit you, and what benefit comes to me, if I do not sin?"3כִּֽי־ תֹ֭אמַר מַה־ יִּסְכָּן־ לָ֑ךְ מָֽה־ אֹ֝עִ֗יל מֵֽחַטָּאתִֽי׃
4I will answer you and your friends with you.4אֲ֭נִי אֲשִֽׁיבְךָ֣ מִלִּ֑ין וְֽאֶת־ רֵעֶ֥יךָ עִמָּֽךְ׃
5Look at the heavens and see; gaze at the clouds high above you.5הַבֵּ֣ט שָׁמַ֣יִם וּרְאֵ֑ה וְשׁ֥וּר שְׁ֝חָקִ֗ים גָּבְה֥וּ מִמֶּֽךָּ׃
6If you sin, how does it affect God? If you multiply your transgressions, what does it do to him?6אִם־ חָ֭טָאתָ מַה־ תִּפְעָל־ בּ֑וֹ וְרַבּ֥וּ פְ֝שָׁעֶ֗יךָ מַה־ תַּעֲשֶׂה־ לּֽוֹ׃
7If you are righteous, what do you give him, or what does he receive from your hand?7אִם־ צָ֭דַקְתָּ מַה־ תִּתֶּן־ ל֑וֹ א֥וֹ מַה־ מִיָּדְךָ֥ יִקָּֽח׃
8Your wickedness affects a person like yourself, and your righteousness, a son of man.8לְאִישׁ־ כָּמ֥וֹךָ רִשְׁעֶ֑ךָ וּלְבֶן־ אָ֝דָ֗ם צִדְקָתֶֽךָ׃
9People cry out because of severe oppression; they shout for help because of the power of the mighty.9מֵ֭רֹב עֲשׁוּקִ֣ים יַזְעִ֑יקוּ יְשַׁוְּע֖וּ מִזְּר֣וֹעַ רַבִּֽים׃
10But no one asks, "Where is God my Maker, who provides us with songs in the night,10וְֽלֹא־ אָמַ֗ר אַ֭יֵּה אֱל֣וֹהַּ עֹשָׂ֑י נֹתֵ֖ן זְמִר֣וֹת בַּלָּֽיְלָה׃
11who gives us more understanding than the animals of the earth and makes us wiser than the birds of the sky?"11מַ֭לְּפֵנוּ מִבַּהֲמ֣וֹת אָ֑רֶץ וּמֵע֖וֹף הַשָּׁמַ֣יִם יְחַכְּמֵֽנוּ׃
12There they cry out, but he does not answer, because of the pride of evil people.12שָׁ֣ם יִ֭צְעֲקוּ וְלֹ֣א יַעֲנֶ֑ה מִ֝פְּנֵ֗י גְּא֣וֹן רָעִֽים׃
13Indeed, God does not listen to empty cries, and the Almighty does not take note of it--13אַךְ־ שָׁ֭וְא לֹא־ יִשְׁמַ֥ע ׀ אֵ֑ל וְ֝שַׁדַּ֗י לֹ֣א יְשׁוּרֶֽנָּה׃
14how much less when you complain that you do not see him, that your case is before him and you are waiting for him.14אַ֣ף כִּֽי־ תֹ֭אמַר לֹ֣א תְשׁוּרֶ֑נּוּ דִּ֥ין לְ֝פָנָ֗יו וּתְח֥וֹלֵֽל לֽוֹ׃
15But now, because God's anger does not punish and he does not pay attention to transgression,15וְעַתָּ֗ה כִּי־ אַ֭יִן פָּקַ֣ד אַפּ֑וֹ וְלֹֽא־ יָדַ֖ע בַּפַּ֣שׁ מְאֹֽד׃
16Job opens his mouth in vain and multiplies words without knowledge.16וְ֭אִיּוֹב הֶ֣בֶל יִפְצֶה־ פִּ֑יהוּ בִּבְלִי־ דַ֝֗עַת מִלִּ֥ין יַכְבִּֽר׃ פ
