Job 36:16 - The Message

"Oh, Job, don’t you see how God’s wooing you
   from the jaws of danger?
How he’s drawing you into wide-open places—
   inviting you to feast at a table laden with blessings?
And here you are laden with the guilt of the wicked,
   obsessed with putting the blame on God!
Don’t let your great riches mislead you;
   don’t think you can bribe your way out of this.
Did you plan to buy your way out of this?
   Not on your life!
And don’t think that night,
   when people sleep off their troubles,
   will bring you any relief.
Above all, don’t make things worse with more evil—
   that’s what’s behind your suffering as it is!
