If you have anything to say, answer me; speak, for I desire to justify you.
Behold, I know your thoughts, and the plots which you wrongfully hatch against me.
Far be it from me that I should justify you; until I die I will not retract my integrity from me.
Hear this, Job, listen to me; be silent and I will speak.
If not, listen to me; be silent, and I will teach you wisdom.
If you can, answer me; set yourself in order before me, stand up.
