Job 33:31-34:4

Modern English Version

³¹ “Pay attention, Job, listen to me;
    hold your peace, and I will speak.
³² If you have anything to say, answer me;
    speak, for I desire to justify you.
³³ If not, listen to me; hold your peace,
    and I will teach you wisdom.”

² “Hear my words, O you wise men;
    and give ear unto me, you that have knowledge.
³ For the ear tests words,
    as the mouth tastes food.
⁴ Let us choose justice for ourselves;
    let us know among ourselves what is good.
