⁵ For Job also said, ‘I am innocent,
    but God has taken away my rights.

⁹ You said, ‘I am pure; I am without sin;
    I am innocent; I have no guilt.

² “I vow by the living God, who has taken away my rights,
    by the Almighty who has embittered my soul—

¹⁴ Everything I did was honest.
    Righteousness covered me like a robe,
    and I wore justice like a turban.

¹⁷ Yet I have done no wrong,
    and my prayer is pure.

⁴ You claim, ‘My beliefs are pure,’
    and ‘I am clean in the sight of God.’

¹⁷ For he attacks me with a storm
    and repeatedly wounds me without cause.
