Job 6:30

A Conservative Version

Is there injustice on my tongue? Cannot my taste discern mischievous things?

See the chapter Copy

Does not the ear try words, even as the palate tastes its food?

Can that which has no savor be eaten without salt? Or is there any taste in the white of an egg?

But solid food is for mature men, those having their sensibilities trained through practice for the discernment of both good and evil.

For the ear tries words as the palate tastes food.

And he knew it, and said, It is my son's coat. An evil beast has devoured him; Joseph is without doubt torn in pieces.

For thou say, My doctrine is pure, and I am clean in thine eyes.
