Turn back, please, let there be no wrong. Yea, turn back again, for my righteousness is in it.
If I am wrong, woe to me! And if I am being righteous, I will not lift up my head, being filled with shame and seeing my pain.
I am a laughingstock to his friend; he calls to God, and He answers him; the just one, the blameless one is a mockery;
Behold now, I have set my cause in order; I know that I shall be justified.
And now all of them, go back and please come again; and I shall not find among you a wise man.
know now that God has subverted me and His net has closed on me.
But He knows the way with me. When I am tried, I shall come forth as gold.
For Job has said, I am righteous; also, God has turned away my right;
And Job answered Jehovah and said:
Therefore, I despise myself, and I have repented on dust and ashes.
Then you shall again see the difference between the righteous one and the wicked one, between him who serves God and him who does not serve Him.
