1Elihu responded again and said:1וַיֹּ֥סֶף אֱלִיה֗וּא וַיֹּאמַֽר׃
2"Be patient with me a moment longer, and I'll show you that there's more to say on God's behalf.2כַּתַּר־ לִ֣י זְ֭עֵיר וַאֲחַוֶּ֑ךָּ כִּ֤י ע֖וֹד לֶאֱל֣וֹהַּ מִלִּֽים׃
3I'll take what I know to its logical conclusion and ascribe righteousness to my Creator,3אֶשָּׂ֣א דֵ֭עִי לְמֵרָח֑וֹק וּ֝לְפֹעֲלִ֗י אֶֽתֵּֽן־ צֶֽדֶק׃
4because what I have to say isn't deceptive, and the one who has perfect knowledge is with you."4כִּֽי־ אָ֭מְנָם לֹא־ שֶׁ֣קֶר מִלָּ֑י תְּמִ֖ים דֵּע֣וֹת עִמָּֽךְ׃
5"Indeed God is mighty and he doesn't show disrespect; he is mighty and strong of heart.5הֶן־ אֵ֣ל כַּ֭בִּיר וְלֹ֣א יִמְאָ֑ס כַּ֝בִּ֗יר כֹּ֣חַֽ לֵֽב׃
6He doesn't let the wicked live; he grants justice to the afflicted.6לֹא־ יְחַיֶּ֥ה רָשָׁ֑ע וּמִשְׁפַּ֖ט עֲנִיִּ֣ים יִתֵּֽן׃
7He won't stop looking at righteous people; he seats them on thrones with kings forever, and they are exalted.7לֹֽא־ יִגְרַ֥ע מִצַּדִּ֗יק עֵ֫ינָ֥יו וְאֶת־ מְלָכִ֥ים לַכִּסֵּ֑א וַיֹּשִׁיבֵ֥ם לָ֝נֶ֗צַח וַיִּגְבָּֽהוּ׃
8"If they're bound in chains, caught in ropes of affliction,8וְאִם־ אֲסוּרִ֥ים בַּזִּקִּ֑ים יִ֝לָּכְד֗וּן בְּחַבְלֵי־ עֹֽנִי׃
9he'll reveal their actions to them, when their transgressions have become excessive.9וַיַּגֵּ֣ד לָהֶ֣ם פָּעֳלָ֑ם וּ֝פִשְׁעֵיהֶ֗ם כִּ֣י יִתְגַּבָּֽרוּ׃
10He opens their ears and instructs them, commanding them to repent from evil.10וַיִּ֣גֶל אָ֭זְנָם לַמּוּסָ֑ר וַ֝יֹּ֗אמֶר כִּֽי־ יְשֻׁב֥וּן מֵאָֽוֶן׃
11If they listen and serve him, they'll finish their lives in prosperity and their years will be pleasant.11אִֽם־ יִשְׁמְע֗וּ וְֽיַ֫עֲבֹ֥דוּ יְכַלּ֣וּ יְמֵיהֶ֣ם בַּטּ֑וֹב וּ֝שְׁנֵיהֶ֗ם בַּנְּעִימִֽים׃
12"But if they won't listen, they'll perish by the sword and die in their ignorance.12וְאִם־ לֹ֣א יִ֭שְׁמְעוּ בְּשֶׁ֣לַח יַעֲבֹ֑רוּ וְ֝יִגְוְע֗וּ כִּבְלִי־ דָֽעַת׃‪‬
13The godless at heart cherish anger; they won't cry out for help when God afflicts them.13וְֽחַנְפֵי־ לֵ֭ב יָשִׂ֣ימוּ אָ֑ף לֹ֥א יְ֝שַׁוְּע֗וּ כִּ֣י אֲסָרָֽם׃
14They die in their youth; and their life will end among temple prostitutes.14תָּמֹ֣ת בַּנֹּ֣עַר נַפְשָׁ֑ם וְ֝חַיָּתָ֗ם בַּקְּדֵשִֽׁים׃
15He'll deliver the afflicted through their afflictions and open their ears when they are oppressed."15יְחַלֵּ֣ץ עָנִ֣י בְעָנְי֑וֹ וְיִ֖גֶל בַּלַּ֣חַץ אָזְנָֽם׃
16"Indeed, he drew you away from the brink of distress to a spacious place without constraints, filling your festive table with bountiful food.16וְאַ֤ף הֲסִיתְךָ֨ ׀ מִפִּי־ צָ֗ר רַ֭חַב לֹא־ מוּצָ֣ק תַּחְתֶּ֑יהָ וְנַ֥חַת שֻׁ֝לְחָנְךָ֗ מָ֣לֵא דָֽשֶׁן׃
17But now you are occupied with the case of the wicked; but justice and judgment will be served.17וְדִין־ רָשָׁ֥ע מָלֵ֑אתָ דִּ֖ין וּמִשְׁפָּ֣ט יִתְמֹֽכוּ׃
18So that no one entices you with riches, don't let a large ransom turn you astray.18כִּֽי־ חֵ֭מָה פֶּן־ יְסִֽיתְךָ֣ בְסָ֑פֶק וְרָב־ כֹּ֝֗פֶר אַל־ יַטֶּֽךָּ׃
19"Will your wealth sustain you when you're in distress, despite your most powerful efforts? 19הֲיַעֲרֹ֣ךְ שׁ֭וּעֲךָ לֹ֣א בְצָ֑ר וְ֝כֹ֗ל מַאֲמַצֵּי־ כֹֽחַ׃
20Don't long for night, when people vanish in their place.20אַל־ תִּשְׁאַ֥ף הַלָּ֑יְלָה לַעֲל֖וֹת עַמִּ֣ים תַּחְתָּֽם׃
21Be careful! Don't turn to evil, because of this you will be tried by more than affliction.21הִ֭שָּׁמֶר אַל־ תֵּ֣פֶן אֶל־ אָ֑וֶן כִּֽי־ עַל־ זֶ֝֗ה בָּחַ֥רְתָּ מֵעֹֽנִי׃
22"Indeed, God is exalted in his power. Who is like him as a teacher?22הֶן־ אֵ֭ל יַשְׂגִּ֣יב בְּכֹח֑וֹ מִ֖י כָמֹ֣הוּ מוֹרֶֽה׃
23Who ordained his path for him, and who has asked him, 'You are wrong, aren't you?'23מִֽי־ פָקַ֣ד עָלָ֣יו דַּרְכּ֑וֹ וּמִֽי־ אָ֝מַ֗ר פָּעַ֥לְתָּ עַוְלָֽה׃
24Remember to magnify his awesome activities, about which mortal man has sung.24זְ֭כֹר כִּֽי־ תַשְׂגִּ֣יא פָעֳל֑וֹ אֲשֶׁ֖ר שֹׁרְר֣וּ אֲנָשִֽׁים׃
25All of mankind sees him; human beings observe him from afar off."25כָּל־ אָדָ֥ם חָֽזוּ־ ב֑וֹ אֱ֝נ֗וֹשׁ יַבִּ֥יט מֵרָחֽוֹק׃
26"God is truly awesome, beyond what we know; the number of his years is unknowable. 26הֶן־ אֵ֣ל שַׂ֭גִּיא וְלֹ֣א נֵדָ֑ע מִסְפַּ֖ר שָׁנָ֣יו וְלֹא־ חֵֽקֶר׃
27He draws up drops of water, distilling it to rain and mist. 27כִּ֭י יְגָרַ֣ע נִטְפֵי־ מָ֑יִם יָזֹ֖קּוּ מָטָ֣ר לְאֵדֽוֹ׃
28When the clouds pour down; they drop their rain on all of humanity.28אֲשֶֽׁר־ יִזְּל֥וּ שְׁחָקִ֑ים יִ֝רְעֲפ֗וּ עֲלֵ֤י ׀ אָדָ֬ם רָֽב׃
29"Furthermore, can anyone understand cloud patterns, or the thundering in his pavilion?29אַ֣ף אִם־ יָ֭בִין מִפְרְשֵׂי־ עָ֑ב תְּ֝שֻׁא֗וֹת סֻכָּתֽוֹ׃
30He scatters his lightning above it, and covers the bottom of the sea.30הֵן־ פָּרַ֣שׂ עָלָ֣יו אוֹר֑וֹ וְשָׁרְשֵׁ֖י הַיָּ֣ם כִּסָּֽה׃
31He uses them to judge some people and give food to many.31כִּי־ בָ֭ם יָדִ֣ין עַמִּ֑ים יִֽתֶּן־ אֹ֥כֶל לְמַכְבִּֽיר׃
32His hands are covered with lightning that he commands to strike his designated target.32עַל־ כַּפַּ֥יִם כִּסָּה־ א֑וֹר וַיְצַ֖ו עָלֶ֣יהָ בְמַפְגִּֽיעַ׃
33His thunder declares his presence; and tells the animals what is coming."33יַגִּ֣יד עָלָ֣יו רֵע֑וֹ מִ֝קְנֶ֗ה אַ֣ף עַל־ עוֹלֶֽה׃
