6Notwithstanding my right I am considered a liar. My wound is incurable, though I am without disobedience.'
2"Do you think this to be your right, or do you say, 'My righteousness is more than God's,'
8Will you even annul my judgment? Will you condemn me, that you may be justified?
18See now, I have set my cause in order. I know that I am righteous.
19Who is he who will contend with me? For then would I hold my peace and give up the spirit.
1Job again took up his parable, and said,
2"As God lives, who has taken away my right, the Almighty, who has made my soul bitter.
7There the upright might reason with him, so I should be delivered forever from my judge.
4Let us choose for us that which is right. Let us know among ourselves what is good.
23who acquit the guilty for a bribe, but deny justice for the innocent!
1Then Job answered,
2"Truly I know that it is so, but how can man be just with God?
19If it is a matter of strength, behold, he is mighty! If of justice, 'Who,' says he, 'will summon me?'
20Though I am righteous, my own mouth shall condemn me. Though I am blameless, it shall prove me perverse.
35"Yet you said, 'I am innocent. Surely his anger has turned away from me.' "Behold, I will judge you, because you say, 'I have not sinned.'
4If it is true that I have erred, my error remains with myself.
5If indeed you will magnify yourselves against me, and plead against me my reproach;
6know now that God has subverted me, and has surrounded me with his net.
7"Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard. I cry for help, but there is no justice.
5Far be it from me that I should justify you. Until I die I will not put away my integrity from me.
6I hold fast to my righteousness, and will not let it go. My heart shall not reproach me so long as I live.
25Therefore Yahweh has rewarded me according to my righteousness, According to my cleanness in his eyesight.
7It was so, that after Yahweh had spoken these words to Job, Yahweh said to Eliphaz the Temanite, "My wrath is kindled against you, and against your two friends; for you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.
29Please return. Let there be no injustice. Yes, return again. My cause is righteous.
1So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.
24Therefore Yahweh has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.
1Then Job answered,
9'I am clean, without disobedience. I am innocent, neither is there iniquity in me.
8Yahweh administers judgment to the peoples. Judge me, Yahweh, according to my righteousness, and to my integrity that is in me.
6(let me be weighed in an even balance, that God may know my integrity);
24Vindicate me, Yahweh my God, according to your righteousness. Don't let them gloat over me.
4For you say, 'My doctrine is pure. I am clean in your eyes.'
3Does God pervert justice? Or does the Almighty pervert righteousness?
35'Job speaks without knowledge. His words are without wisdom.'
28this also would be an iniquity to be punished by the judges; for I should have denied the God who is above.
22In all this, Job did not sin, nor charge God with wrongdoing.
17"But you are full of the judgment of the wicked. Judgment and justice take hold of you.
1Then Job answered,
15Though I were righteous, yet I wouldn't answer him. I would make supplication to my judge.
31"For has any said to God, 'I am guilty, but I will not offend any more.
32For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, that we should come together in judgment.
3Then Job answered Yahweh,
32If you have anything to say, answer me. Speak, for I desire to justify you.
23For he doesn't need to consider a man further, that he should go before God in judgment.
1You are righteous, Yahweh, when I contend with you; yet I would reason the cause with you: why does the way of the wicked prosper? why are all they at ease who deal very treacherously?
12Yes surely, God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert justice.
10My shield is with God, who saves the upright in heart.
59Yahweh, you have seen my wrong. Judge my cause.
1Then Job answered Yahweh,
3I will get my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.
