Understanding God's Heart For Us in Song
28 so that they caused the cry of the poor to come to him. He heard the cry of the afflicted.
29 When he gives quietness, who then can condemn? When he hides his face, who then can see him? He is over a nation or a man alike,
30 that the godless man may not reign, that there be no one to ensnare the people.
31 “For has any said to God, ‘I am guilty, but I will not offend any more.
32 Teach me that which I don’t see. If I have done iniquity, I will do it no more’?
33 Shall his recompense be as you desire, that you refuse it? For you must choose, and not I. Therefore speak what you know.
34 Men of understanding will tell me, yes, every wise man who hears me:
35 ‘Job speaks without knowledge. His words are without wisdom.’
36 I wish that Job were tried to the end, because of his answering like wicked men.
37 For he adds rebellion to his sin. He claps his hands among us, and multiplies his words against God.”
