Elihu also proceeded, and said,
Suffer me a little, and I will shew thee that [I have] yet to speak on God's behalf.
I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.
For truly my words [shall] not [be] false: he that is perfect in knowledge [is] with thee.
Behold, God [is] mighty, and despiseth not [any: he is] mighty in strength [and] wisdom.
He preserveth not the life of the wicked: but giveth right to the poor.
He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous: but with kings [are they] on the throne; yea, he doth establish them for ever, and they are exalted.
And if [they be] bound in fetters, [and] be holden in cords of affliction;
Then he sheweth them their work, and their transgressions that they have exceeded.
He openeth also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity.
