I will answer thee, and thy companions with thee.

Job 35:5
Look unto the heavens, and see; and behold the clouds [which] are higher than thou.

Job 35:6
If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him? or [if] thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him?

Job 35:11
Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven?

There they cry, but none giveth answer, because of the pride of evil men.

Although thou sayest thou shalt not see him, [yet] judgment [is] before him; therefore trust thou in him.
