Job 33:1-7

Common English Bible

33 But now, listen to me, Job;
        pay attention to all my words.
² Notice that I am opening my mouth;
    my tongue is speaking in my mouth.^[a]
3 My words come from a virtuous heart;
    my lips speak knowledge clearly.
⁴ God’s spirit made me;
    the Almighty’s breath enlivens me.
⁵ If you are able, answer me;
    lay out your case^[b] before me and take a stand.
⁶ Notice that I’m just like you to God;
    I also was pinched from clay.
⁷ Surely fear of me shouldn’t scare you;
    my pressure on you shouldn’t be heavy.
