Job 35:1-6 New English Translation (NET)

1. Then Elihu answered:

2. “Do you think this to be just:when you say, ‘My right before God.’

3. But you say, ‘What will it profit you,’and, ‘What do I gain by not sinning?’

4. I will reply to you,and to your friends with you.

5. Gaze at the heavens and see;consider the clouds, which are higher than you!

6. If you sin, how does it affect God?If your transgressions are many,what does it do to him?
