New Testament

Job 35:8-14 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

8. Your evil ways only hurt a man like yourself.And the good you do only helps other human beings.

9. “People cry out for help when they are in trouble.They beg for relief from powerful people.

10. But no one asks, ‘Where is God, my Maker?He gives us songs in the night.

11. He makes us more clever than the animals of the earth.He makes us wiser than the birds of the air.’

12. God does not answer evil people when they cry for help.This is because they are too proud.

13. He does not listen to their useless begging.God All-Powerful pays no attention to them.

14. He will listen to you even lesswhen you say you do not see him.He will not listen when you say your case is before himand you must wait for him.
