Then the three men ceased to answer Job, because in his own eyes he was in the right.
I will say to God: Do not put me in the wrong! Let me know why you oppose me.
Even though you know that I am not wicked, and that none can deliver me out of your hand?
Slay me though he might, I will wait for him; I will defend my conduct before him.
Behold, I have prepared my case, I know that I am in the right.
Because your wickedness instructs your mouth, and you choose to speak like the crafty.
Is not your wickedness great, your iniquity endless?
There an upright man might argue with him, and I would once and for all be delivered from my judge.
But you have said in my hearing, as I listened to the sound of your words:
“I am clean, without transgression; I am innocent, there is no guilt in me.
Would you refuse to acknowledge my right? Would you condemn me that you may be justified?
Think it over; let there be no injustice. Think it over; I still am right.
