But if they obey not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge (36:12) But the hypocrites in heart heap up wrath: they cry not when he bindeth them (36:13) They die in youth, and their life [is] among the unclean (36:14) He delivereth the poor in his affliction, and openeth their ears in oppression (36:15) 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 (36:16) But thou hast fulfilled the judgment of the wicked: judgment and justice take hold [on thee] (36:17) Because [there is] wrath, [beware] lest he take thee away with [his] stroke: then a great ransom cannot deliver thee (36:18) Will he esteem thy riches? [no], not gold, nor all the forces of strength (36:19) Desire not the night, when people are cut off in their place (36:20) Take heed, regard not iniquity: for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction (36:21) Behold, God exalteth by his power: who teacheth like him? (36:22) Who hath enjoined him his way? or who can say, Thou hast wrought iniquity? (36:23) Remember that thou magnify his work, which men behold (36:24) Every man may see it; man may behold [it] afar off (36:25) Behold, God [is] great, and we know [him] not, neither can the number of his years be searched out (36:26) For he maketh small the drops of water: they pour down rain according to the vapour thereof: (36:27) Which the clouds do drop [and] distil upon man abundantly (36:28) Also can [any] understand the spreadings of the clouds, [or] the noise of his tabernacle? (36:29) Behold, he spreadeth his light upon it, and covereth the bottom of the sea (36:30) For by them judgeth he the people; he giveth meat in abundance (36:31) With clouds he covereth the light; and commandeth it [not to shine] by [the cloud] that cometh betwixt (36:32) The noise thereof showeth concerning it, the cattle also concerning the vapour
(36:33)
