English

If you sin, what do you accomplish against Him? If you multiply your transgressions, what do you do to Him?

Elihu tried to answer his own question (35:2).

But his response did not add anything new compared to:

Elihu did not realize that all sin offends God (Genesis 39:9; Matthew 25:41–46; compare Proverbs 19:17).

Jeremiah 7:19
But am I the One they are provoking? declares the LORD. Is it not themselves they spite, to their own shame?
Proverbs 8:36
But he who fails to find me harms himself; all who hate me love death.”
Proverbs 9:12
If you are wise, you are wise to your own advantage; but if you scoff, you alone will bear the consequences.
