Iyov 34:29-37 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

29. When He giveth quietness, who then can condemn? When He hideth His panim, who then can behold Him? Whether it be a nation, or an individual only?

30. That the chanef (hypocrite) reign not, nor those who ensnare the people.

31. For has anyone said unto El, I have borne chastisement, I will not offend any more;

32. Teach Thou me what I see not; im (if) I have done iniquity, I will do no more?

33. Will He then recompense to suit you, just because you disavow it? Thou must choose, not I; therefore speak that of which thou hast da'as.

34. Let anshei levav (men of understanding) say to me, and let a gever chacham who pays heed unto me say,

35. Iyov hath spoken without da'as, and his words were without seichel.

36. Iyov ought to be tried unto the limit, because his answers are those of anshei aven.

37. For he addeth peysha unto his chattat, he clappeth his hands [shaking fist at G-d] among us, and multiplieth his words against El.
