Job 34:5-9
New Living Translation
5 For Job also said, ‘I am innocent,
but God has taken away my rights.
6 I am innocent, but they call me a liar.
My suffering is incurable, though I have not sinned.’
7 “Tell me, has there ever been a man like Job,
with his thirst for irreverent talk?
8 He chooses evil people as companions.
He spends his time with wicked men.
9 He has even said, ‘Why waste time
trying to please God?’
Job 34:5-9
English Standard Version
5 For Job has said, ‘I am (A)in the right,
and (B)God has taken away my right;
6 in spite of my right I am counted a liar;
my wound is incurable, though I am (C)without transgression.’
7 What man is like Job,
who (D)drinks up scoffing like water,
8 who travels in company with evildoers
and walks (E)with wicked men?
9 For (F)he has said, ‘It profits a man nothing
that he should take delight in God.’
