Job 35:14

12 There they cry out, but He does not answer, because of the pride of evil men.

13 Surely God does not listen to empty pleas, and the Almighty does not take note of it.

How much less, then, when you say that you do not see Him, that your case is before Him and you must wait for Him,

15 and further, that in His anger He has not punished or taken much notice of folly!

16 So Job opens his mouth in vain and multiplies words without knowledge.”

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
