Commentary for Job 34:10
לָכֵ֤ן ׀ אַ֥נֲשֵׁ֥י לֵבָ֗ב שִׁמְע֫וּ לִ֥י חָלִ֖לָה לָאֵ֥ל מֵרֶ֗שַׁע וְשַׁדַּ֥י מֵעָֽוֶל׃
Therefore hearken unto me, ye men of understanding: Far be it from God, that He should do wickedness; And from the Almighty, that He should commit iniquity.
Malbim on Job
Elihu returns to his recapitulation of Job's argument. Job had reasoned that if individual governance was in God's hands, then by the logic of His Perfection, it would be administered in a proper and just manner. Paraphrasing Job's thesis, Elihu says "Therefore, listen to me" etc.
