If there are words, answer me; speak, for I desire to justify you.
Behold, I know your thoughts, and the devices with which you do wrong against me;
Far be it from me that I should justify you. Until I die, I shall not turn aside my integrity from me.
Pay attention, O Job; listen to me; be silent, and I will speak.
If not, you listen to me; be silent, and I will teach you wisdom.
If you are able, answer me; array yourself, set yourself before me.
