New Living Translation (NLT)
Job 33
31 Mark this well, Job. Listen to me, for I have more to say.
32 But if you have anything to say, go ahead. Speak, for I am anxious to see you justified.
33 But if not, then listen to me. Keep silent and I will teach you wisdom!”
Job 34
1 Then Elihu said:
2 “Listen to me, you wise men. Pay attention, you who have knowledge.
3 Job said, ‘The ear tests the words it hears just as the mouth distinguishes between foods.’
4 So let us discern for ourselves what is right; let us learn together what is good.
5 For Job also said, ‘I am innocent, but God has taken away my rights.
6 I am innocent, but they call me a liar. My suffering is incurable, though I have not sinned.’
7 “Tell me, has there ever been a man like Job, with his thirst for irreverent talk?
8 He chooses evil people as companions. He spends his time with wicked men.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
