Job 33:12

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Behold, in this thou art not just: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.

In all this Job did no sin, and did not say that God's acts were foolish.

Now then, you wise, take note; you men of knowledge, give ear to me. Let it be far from God to do evil, and from the Ruler of all to do wrong.

Does it seem to you to be right, and righteousness before God, to say,

Truly God is lifted up in strength; who is a ruler like him?

But you say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Give ear, now, O children of Israel; is my way not equal? are not your ways unequal?

But you will say to me, Why does he still make us responsible? who is able to go against his purpose?

I will give my answer; I will put forward my knowledge:

I will make answer to you and to your friends:

I will give my answer; I will put forward my knowledge:

And Job's mouth is open wide to give out what is of no profit, increasing words without knowledge.
