I Hold Fast My Righteousness
27 Then Job continued to lift up his [a](A)discourse and said,
2 “As God lives, (B)who has removed my justice,
And the Almighty, (C)who has embittered my soul,
3 For as long as breath is in me,
And the (D)spirit from God is in my nostrils,
4 My lips certainly will not speak unrighteousness,
Nor will (E)my tongue utter deceit.
5 Far be it from me that I should declare you right;
Till I breathe my last (F)I will not remove my integrity from me.
6 I (G)hold fast my righteousness and will not let it go.
My heart does not reproach any of my days.

27 Job continued his discourse, saying:
2 As God lives, who has deprived me of justice,(A)
and the Almighty who has made me bitter,(B)
3 as long as my breath is still in me
and the breath from God remains in my nostrils,(C)
4 my lips will not speak unjustly,
and my tongue will not utter deceit.
5 I will never affirm that you are right.
I will maintain my integrity[a](D) until I die.
6 I will cling to my righteousness and never let it go.
My conscience(E) will not accuse me as long as I live!
