For Job has said, I am righteous: and God has taken away my judgment.
You know that I am not wicked; and there is none that can deliver out of your hand.
For you have said, My doctrine is pure, and I am clean in your eyes.
Behold now, I have ordered my cause; I know that I shall be justified.
Not for any injustice in my hands: also my prayer is pure.
Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard: I cry aloud, but there is no judgment.
As God lives, who has taken away my judgment; and the Almighty, who has vexed my soul;
I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.
So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.
I am clean without transgression, I am innocent; neither is there iniquity in me.
Let us choose to us judgment: let us know among ourselves what is good.
Return, I pray you, let it not be iniquity; yes, return again, my righteousness is in it.
Does God pervert judgment? or does the Almighty pervert justice?
For he breaks me with a tempest, and multiplies my wounds without cause.
Why say you, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, My way is hid from the LORD, and my judgment is passed over from my God?
