Job 34:5-9

Christian Standard Bible

⁵ For Job has declared, “I am righteous,
yet God has deprived me of justice.^(A)
6 Would I lie about my case?^(B)
My wound^[a] is incurable,
though I am without transgression.”
⁷ What man is like Job?
He drinks derision^(C) like water.
⁸ He keeps company with evildoers
and walks with wicked men.
⁹ For he has said, “A man gains nothing
when he becomes God’s friend.”^(D)
