Job 36:5-15
5BeholdH2005, GodH410 is mightyH3524 but does not 1despiseH3988 any; He is 2mightyH3524 in strengthH3581 of understandingH3820.6He does not 3keepH2421 the wickedH7563 aliveH2421, But givesH5414 justiceH4941 to 4the afflictedH6041.7He does not 5withdrawH1639 His eyesH5869 from the righteousH6662; But 6with kingsH4428 on the throneH3678 He has seatedH3427 them foreverH5331, and they are exaltedH1361.8And ifH518 they are boundH631 in fettersH2203, And are caughtH3920 in the cordsH2256 of 7afflictionH6040,9Then He declaresH5046 to them their workH6467 And their transgressionsH6588, that they have 8magnifiedH1396 themselves.109He opensH1540 their earH241 to instructionH4148, And 10commandsH559 that they returnH7725 from evilH205.11IfH518 they hearH8085 and serveH5647 Him, They will 11endH3615 their daysH3117 in prosperityH2896 And their yearsH8141 in 12pleasuresH5273.12But ifH518 they do not hearH8085, they shall 13perishH5674 14by the swordH2719 And they will 15dieH1478 withoutH1097 knowledgeH1847.13But the godlessH2611 in heartH3820 layH7760 up angerH639; They do not cryH7768 for helpH7768 whenH3588 He bindsH631 them.1416They dieH4191 in youthH5290, And their lifeH2421 perishes among the 17cultH6945 prostitutesH6945.15He deliversH2502 the afflictedH6041 in 18their 19afflictionH6040, And 20opensH1540 their earH241 21in time of oppressionH3906.
