"And if now your children have sinned against him, and he has dismissed them into the power of their iniquity, "

“If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away for their transgression;”
“If thy children have sinned against him, And he hath delivered them into the hand of their transgression; ”
“If your children have sinned against him, He has delivered them into the hand of their disobedience.”
“If your children sinned against him, he gave them over to the penalty of their sin.”
“Although thy children have sinned against him, and he hath left them in the hand of their iniquity:”
“If your children have done evil against him, then their punishment is from his hand.”
“If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away for their transgression;”
But Baldad the Suhite, responding, said:
How long will you speak this way, so that the words of your mouth are like a changeable wind?
Does God supplant judgment, or does the Almighty subvert that which is just?
And if now your children have sinned against him, and he has dismissed them into the power of their iniquity,
even so, you should arise early to God, so as to beseech the Almighty.
If you approach with purity and honesty, he will quickly be attentive to you, and a peaceful life will repay your righteousness,
so much so that, if your former things were small, your latter things would be multiplied greatly.
