Job 35:9 - 35:16


9
“Because of many oppressions they cry out;
They cry for help because of the arm of many oppressors.
10
But no one says, ‘Where is God my Maker,
Who gives songs of praise in the night,
11
Who teaches us more than the beasts of the earth
And makes us wiser than the birds of the heavens?’
12
There they cry out, but He does not answer
Because of the pride of evil men.
13
Surely God will not listen to an empty cry,
Nor will the Almighty perceive it.
14
How much less when you say you do not perceive Him,
The case is before Him, and you must wait for Him!
15
And now, because He has not visited in His anger,
Nor has He acknowledged transgression well,
16
So Job opens his mouth vainly;
He multiplies words without knowledge.”
