Job 21:3-5
EasyEnglish Bible
3 Be patient with me so that I can speak.
After you have heard what I say,
you may choose to laugh at me.
4 It is not people that I want to argue with.[a]
So I have good reason to be upset.
5 When you look at me, you should be upset.
You should cover your mouth with your hand.
Footnotes
- 21:4 Job is saying that he wants to argue with God, not with people. His friends have told him that God only punishes wicked people. But Job knows that God decides what happens to all people, good people and bad people. Nobody can tell God what he should do.
