Job 34
Reading Job chapter 34 in the Darby Bible, public-domain text from 1890.
Verses 1–10
1 Moreover Elihu answered and said,
2 Hear my words, ye wise [men]; and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge.
3 For the ear trieth words, as the palate tasteth food.
4 Let us choose for ourselves what is right; let us know among ourselves what is good!
5 For Job hath said, I am righteous, andGod hath taken away my judgment:
6 Should I lie against my right? My wound is incurable without transgression.
7 What man is like Job? he drinketh up scorning like water,
8 And goeth in company with workers of iniquity, and walketh with wicked men.
9 For he hath said, It profiteth not a man if he delight himself inGod.
10 Therefore hearken unto me, ye men of understanding: Far be wickedness fromGod, and wrong from the Almighty!
