13 Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it.
13 Surely God H410 will not hear H8085 vanity, H7723 neither will the Almighty H7706 regard H7789 it.
13 Surely God will not hear an empty `cry', Neither will the Almighty regard it.
13 Surely vanity God doth not hear, And the Mighty doth not behold it.
13 Surely ùGod will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it.
13 Surely God will not hear an empty cry, Neither will the Almighty regard it.
13 But God will not give ear to what is false, or the Ruler of all take note of it;
The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.
And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.
Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.
Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart. If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles. Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks. Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defence, and thou shalt have plenty of silver. For then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face unto God. Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee, and thou shalt pay thy vows.
I cry unto thee, and thou dost not hear me: I stand up, and thou regardest me not.
He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer.
He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination.
Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God, and be more ready to hear, than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not that they do evil. Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter any thing before God: for God is in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few. For a dream cometh through the multitude of business; and a fool's voice is known by multitude of words.
Israel shall cry unto me, My God, we know thee. Israel hath cast off the thing that is good: the enemy shall pursue him.
Though ye offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts.
And he said unto her, What wilt thou? She saith unto him, Grant that these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on the left, in thy kingdom. But Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? They say unto him, We are able.

Commentary on Job 35 Matthew Henry Commentary
Chapter 35
Job being still silent, Elihu follows his blow, and here, a third time, undertakes to show him that he had spoken amiss, and ought to recant. Three improper sayings he here charges him with, and returns answer to them distinctly:-
Job 35:1-8
We have here,
Job 35:9-13
Elihu here returns an answer to another word that Job had said, which, he thought, reflected much upon the justice and goodness of God, and therefore ought not to pass without a remark. Observe,
Job 35:14-16
Here is,
