Job 23:5-7

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁵ I would learn what he would answer me,
    and understand what he would say to me.
⁶ Would he contend with me in the greatness of his power?
    No; but he would give heed to me.
⁷ There an upright person could reason with him,
    and I should be acquitted for ever by my judge.
