⁶ Your ^(A)own mouth condemns you, and not I;
    ^(B)your own lips testify against you.

²⁰ Though I am in the right, ^(A)my own mouth would condemn me;
    though I am blameless, he would prove me perverse.

⁸ They are brought to ruin, with their own ^(A)tongues turned against them;
    all who ^(B)see them will ^(C)wag their heads.

^3 (A)‘Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?’
Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand,
    things ^(B)too wonderful for me, which I did not know.

⁸ Will you even put me in the wrong?
    Will you condemn me that ^(A)you may be in the right?

⁵ For Job has said, ‘I am ^(A)in the right,
    and ^(B)God has taken away my right;
⁶ in spite of my right I am counted a liar;
    my wound is incurable, though I am ^(C)without transgression.’
⁷ What man is like Job,
    who ^(D)drinks up scoffing like water,
⁸ who travels in company with evildoers
    and walks ^(E)with wicked men?
⁹ For ^(F)he has said, ‘It profits a man nothing
    that he should take delight in God.’
