Job 35:15-16
Job 35:9-16 The Message (MSG)
“When times get bad, people cry out for help. They cry for relief from being kicked around, But never give God a thought when things go well, when God puts spontaneous songs in their hearts, When God sets out the entire creation as a science classroom, using birds and beasts to teach wisdom. People are arrogantly indifferent to God— until, of course, they’re in trouble, and then God is indifferent to them. There’s nothing behind such prayers except panic; the Almighty pays them no mind. So why would he notice you just because you say you’re tired of waiting to be heard, Or waiting for him to get good and angry and do something about the world’s problems? “Job, you talk sheer nonsense— nonstop nonsense!”
Job 35:15-16 King James Version (KJV)
But now, because it is not so, he hath visited in his anger; Yet he knoweth it not in great extremity: Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vain; He multiplieth words without knowledge.
Job 35:15-16 New American Standard Bible - NASB 1995 (NASB1995)
And now, because He has not visited in His anger, Nor has He acknowledged transgression well, So Job opens his mouth emptily; He multiplies words without knowledge.”
Job 35:15-16 New Century Version (NCV)
that his anger never punishes, and that he doesn’t notice evil. So Job is only speaking nonsense, saying many words without knowing what is true.”
Job 35:15-16 American Standard Version (ASV)
But now, because he hath not visited in his anger, Neither doth he greatly regard arrogance; Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vanity; He multiplieth words without knowledge.
Job 35:15-16 New International Version (NIV)
and further, that his anger never punishes and he does not take the least notice of wickedness. So Job opens his mouth with empty talk; without knowledge he multiplies words.”
Job 35:15-16 New King James Version (NKJV)
And now, because He has not punished in His anger, Nor taken much notice of folly, Therefore Job opens his mouth in vain; He multiplies words without knowledge.”
Job 35:15-16 Amplified Bible (AMP)
“And now, because He has not [quickly] punished in His anger, Nor has He acknowledged transgression and arrogance well [and seems unaware of the wrong of which a person is guilty], Job uselessly opens his mouth And multiplies words without knowledge [drawing the worthless conclusion that the righteous have no more advantage than the wicked].”
