Job 34:31–37, “Surely it is meet to be said unto God, I have borne chastisement, I will not offend any more: That which I see not teach thou me: if I have done iniquity, I will do no more. Should it be according to thy mind? he will recompense it, whether thou refuse, or whether thou choose; and not I: therefore speak what thou knowest. Let men of understanding tell me, and let a wise man hearken unto me. Job hath spoken without knowledge, and his words were without wisdom. My desire is that Job may be tried unto the end because of his answers for wicked men. For he addeth rebellion unto his sin, he clappeth his hands among us, and multiplieth his words against God.”
Elihu continued his monologue with another attack on Job. He said that no one has to tell God when they are suffering and no one needs to apologise to God when he has done something wrong. Of course, when the Lord God spoke to Adam and Eve in the garden after they had sinned He called out to them. Not because God didn’t know where they were but to give them a chance to confess their sin. God is happy when sinners confess their sin. Elihu accused Job of speaking ill advised words when he said that he wanted to defend himself before the Lord. He also said that Job would suffer for this insolence before God. Elihu thought he was speaking for God but he was only speaking on his own behalf and he was speaking without knowledge rather than Job.
