New Living Translation (NLT)
Job 35
16 But you are talking nonsense, Job. You have spoken like a fool.”
Job 36
1 Elihu continued speaking:
2 “Let me go on, and I will show you the truth. For I have not finished defending God!
3 I will present profound arguments for the righteousness of my Creator.
4 I am telling you nothing but the truth, for I am a man of great knowledge.
5 “God is mighty, but he does not despise anyone! He is mighty in both power and understanding.
6 He does not let the wicked live but gives justice to the afflicted.
7 He never takes his eyes off the innocent, but he sets them on thrones with kings and exalts them forever.
8 If they are bound in chains and caught up in a web of trouble,
9 he shows them the reason. He shows them their sins of pride.
10 He gets their attention and commands that they turn from evil.
