Job 34:5-9

Revised Standard Version

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