1Elihu also continued, and said,

2“Bear with me a little, and I will show you; for I still have something to say on God’s behalf.

3I will get my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.

4For truly my words are not false. One who is perfect in knowledge is with you.

5“Behold, God is mighty, and doesn’t despise anyone. He is mighty in strength of understanding.

6He doesn’t preserve the life of the wicked, but gives justice to the afflicted.

7He doesn’t withdraw his eyes from the righteous, but with kings on the throne, he sets them forever, and they are exalted.

8If they are bound in fetters, and are taken in the cords of afflictions,

9then he shows them their work, and their transgressions, that they have behaved themselves proudly.

10He also opens their ears to instruction, and commands that they return from iniquity.

11If they listen and serve him, they will spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.

12But if they don’t listen, they will perish by the sword; they will die without knowledge.
