Then the wrath of Elihu the son of Barakh'el, the Buzite, of the family of Ram, was kindled against Iyov. His wrath was kindled because he justified himself rather than God.
Against you, and you only, have I sinned, and done that which is evil in your sight; that you may be proved right when you speak, and justified when you judge.
Your covenant with death shall be annulled, and your agreement with She'ol shall not stand. When the overflowing scourge passes through, then you will be trampled down by it.
Woe to him who strives with his Maker--a potsherd among the potsherds of the earth! Shall the clay ask him who fashions it, *What are you making?* or your work, *He has no hands?*
May it never be! Yes, let God be found true, but every man a liar. As it is written, *That you might be justified in your words, and might prevail when you come into judgment.*
Now I say this. A covenant confirmed beforehand by God in Messiah, the law, which came four hundred thirty years after, does not annul, so as to make the promise of no effect.
