Job 35

Job 35:6

If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him? or if thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him?

If thou sinnest, what dost thou hurt him? Is his holiness, justice, power over the less, because thou hast transgressed? Is ought diminished from his essence by thine offence?

Job 35:10

But none saith, Where is God my maker, who giveth songs in the night?

Many make formal flourishes, but none doth heartily acknowledge the powerful and just hand of that God, who gives due and seasonable comfort to the soul, in the deepest and darkest night of our sorrows.

Job 35:12

Therefore they cry, but none heareth them, because of the pride of evil men.

Therefore they cry out, and complain of the pride and oppressions of wicked men; but God giveth them no answer, by reason of their impatience and unbelief.

Job 35:14

Although thou sayest thou shalt not see him, yet judgment is before him; therefore trust thou in him.

Although thou sayest, that God gives thee no assurance of his presence by any sensible demonstration, yet certainly he will be sure to execute true (though secret) judgment, in all the cases of men; and therefore do thou acknowledge him, and trust in him.

Job 35:15

But now, because it is not so, he hath visited in his anger; yet he knoweth it not in great extremity.

But now, because thou dost not approve thyself to him as thou oughtest, therefore he hath afflicted thee in his anger: yet Job doth not consider, that his suffering is not in such extremity, as his sin hath deserved.
