Job 34:9

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

For he hath said, It profiteth a man nothing that he should delight himself with God.

It is all one; therefore I said, he destroyeth the perfect and the wicked.

And they say unto God, Depart from us, for we desire not the knowledge of thy ways!

Who said unto God, Depart from us! and what could the Almighty do to them?

For thou hast asked of what profit it is unto thee: what do I gain more than if I had sinned?

Ye say, It is vain to serve God; and what profit is it that we keep his charge, and that we walk mournfully before Jehovah of hosts?
