Job Chapter 36
Elihu’s like, "Yo, let me drop some knowledge real quick."
Elihu also proceeded, and said,
Just hold up, and I’ll show you I’m about to speak for God, no cap.
Suffer me a little, and I will shew thee that {I have} yet to speak on God's behalf. {I have...: Heb. there are yet words for God}
I’m about to pull my wisdom from the depths, showing mad respect to my Creator.
I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.
For real, my words are straight truths: the one who knows everything is vibin’ with you.
For truly my words {shall} not {be} false: he that is perfect in knowledge {is} with thee.
Peep this, God’s a powerhouse and doesn’t sleep on nobody: He’s got major strength and wisdom.
Behold, God {is} mighty, and despiseth not {any: he is} mighty in strength {and} wisdom. {wisdom: Heb. heart}
He doesn’t save the wicked, but He’s all about justice for the needy, periodt.
He preserveth not the life of the wicked: but giveth right to the poor. {poor: or, afflicted}
He keeps His gaze on the righteous: they’re chilling with kings on the throne, and He’s got their backs for life, fr.
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’re caught up in chains and struggling hard;
And if {they be} bound in fetters, {and} be holden in cords of affliction;
Then He shows them their grind and the wrong steps they’ve taken.
Then he sheweth them their work, and their transgressions that they have exceeded.
He opens their ears to some real talk and tells them to bounce back from the bad choices.
He openeth also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity.
If they vibe with him and serve, they'll be living life to the fullest, fr, with all the good vibes.
If they obey and serve {him}, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.
But if they don’t, they’re gonna get wrecked, no cap, and end up clueless.
But if they obey not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge. {perish: Heb. pass away}
The fakes in their feels build up mad anger: they don’t even shout when he’s got them locked down.
But the hypocrites in heart heap up wrath: they cry not when he bindeth them.
They dip out young, and their life is just a hot mess, periodt.
They die in youth, and their life {is} among the unclean. {They...: Heb. Their soul dieth} {unclean: or, sodomites}
He saves the broken when they’re down, opening their ears to the struggle.
He delivereth the poor in his affliction, and openeth their ears in oppression. {poor: or, afflicted}
He could've lifted you from tight spots to wide open spaces, where everything's lit on your plate.
Even so would he have removed thee out of the strait {into} a broad place, where {there is} no straitness; and that which should be set on thy table {should be} full of fatness. {that...: Heb. the rest of thy table}
But you’ve played yourself with the wicked vibes: judgment and justice got you in a chokehold.
But thou hast fulfilled the judgment of the wicked: judgment and justice take hold {on thee}. {take...: or, should uphold thee}
'Cause there’s mad anger, watch out or he’ll hit you hard: then no amount of cash can save you.
Because {there is} wrath, {beware} lest he take thee away with {his} stroke: then a great ransom cannot deliver thee. {deliver...: Heb. turn thee aside}
Think he gives a flip about your stacks? Nah, not even gold or all your strength can impress him.
Will he esteem thy riches? {no}, not gold, nor all the forces of strength.
Don’t wish for the night when people are getting cut off, that’s just sus.
Desire not the night, when people are cut off in their place.
No cap, don’t trip over your bad vibes; you chose this over struggle.
Take heed, regard not iniquity: for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction.
Yo, check it, God flexes hard with his power: who teaches like Him?
Behold, God exalteth by his power: who teacheth like him?
Who told Him what to do? Like, who can say He’s done wrong?
Who hath enjoined him his way? or who can say, Thou hast wrought iniquity?
Remember to hype up His work, it’s a whole vibe for all to see.
Remember that thou magnify his work, which men behold.
Every dude can peep it; it’s visible from a distance, fr.
Every man may see it; man may behold {it} afar off.
For real, God is mad great, and we don’t even know Him fully; His years are a mystery.
Behold, God {is} great, and we know {him} not, neither can the number of his years be searched out.
He makes the tiny drops of water: they rain down based on the steam, lit.
For he maketh small the drops of water: they pour down rain according to the vapour thereof:
The clouds be dripping and showering us like crazy.
Which the clouds do drop {and} distil upon man abundantly.
Can anyone even grasp how the clouds spread or the sound of His setup?
Also can {any} understand the spreadings of the clouds, {or} the noise of his tabernacle?
For real, He lights it up and covers the ocean floor, no cap.
Behold, he spreadeth his light upon it, and covereth the bottom of the sea. {bottom: Heb. roots}
He judges the squad with those vibes; he’s got food for days, no cap.
For by them judgeth he the people; he giveth meat in abundance.
He’s got the clouds blocking the light, telling it to chill when the shade rolls in.
With clouds he covereth the light; and commandeth it {not to shine} by {the cloud} that cometh betwixt.
The sounds are lit, and even the cattle are vibing with the mist.
The noise thereof sheweth concerning it, the cattle also concerning the vapour. {the vapour: Heb. that which goeth up}
