Job 34:35-37
Job 34:34-37 The Message (MSG)
“All right-thinking people say— and the wise who have listened to me concur— ‘Job is an ignoramus. He talks utter nonsense.’ Job, you need to be pushed to the wall and called to account for wickedly talking back to God the way you have. You’ve compounded your original sin by rebelling against God’s discipline, Defiantly shaking your fist at God, piling up indictments against the Almighty One.”
Job 34:35-37 King James Version (KJV)
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.
Job 34:35-37 New American Standard Bible - NASB 1995 (NASB1995)

Job 34:35-37 New Century Version (NCV)

Job 34:35-37 American Standard Version (ASV)

Job 34:35-37 New International Version (NIV)
