Job 35:15–16

15 and further, that his anger never punishes

and he does not take the least notice of wickedness.

16 So Job opens his mouth with empty talk;

without knowledge he multiplies words.”

15 But now, because it is not so, he hath visited in his anger;

Yet he knoweth it not in great extremity:

16 Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vain;

He multiplieth words without knowledge.

15 You say he does not respond to sinners with anger

and is not greatly concerned about wickedness.

16 But you are talking nonsense, Job.

You have spoken like a fool.”

15 And now, because He has not punished in His anger,

Nor taken much notice of folly,

16 Therefore Job opens his mouth in vain;

He multiplies words without knowledge.”

15 that his anger never punishes,

and that he doesn’t notice evil.

16 So Job is only speaking nonsense,

saying many words without knowing what is true.”

15 But now, because he hath not visited in his anger,

Neither doth he greatly regard arrogance;

16 Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vanity;

He multiplieth words without knowledge.

15 But now, because he hath not visited in his anger, doth not Job know his great arrogancy? 16 For Job hath opened his mouth in vanity, and made words abundant without knowledge.

15 And now ⸤you say⸥ that his anger doesn’t punish ⸤anyone⸥ 

and he isn’t too concerned about evil. 

16 Job opens his mouth for no good reason 

and talks a lot without having any knowledge.” 

15 But now, because God’s anger does not punish

and He does not pay attention to transgression,

16 Job opens his mouth in vain

and multiplies words without knowledge.

15 And now, because his anger does not punish

and he does not greatly heed transgression,

16 Job opens his mouth in empty talk;

he multiplies words without knowledge.”

15 But now, because his anger does not punish,

and he does not acknowledge the transgression at all,

16 therefore Job opens his mouth in empty talk—

without knowledge he multiplies words.”

15 When you say his anger never punishes sin, he won’t hear you.

He won’t listen when you say he doesn’t pay any attention to evil.

16 So you say things that don’t mean anything.

You use a lot of words,

but you don’t know what you are talking about.”

15 “And now, because He has not visited in His anger,

Nor has He acknowledged transgression well,

16 So Job opens his mouth emptily;

He multiplies words without knowledge.”
