16 (A)Therefore Job opens his mouth in vain;
He multiplies words without knowledge.”
Job 38:2
New King James Version
Job 34:35-37
New King James Version
35 ‘Job(A) speaks without knowledge,
His words are without wisdom.’
36 Oh, that Job were tried to the utmost,
Because his answers are like those of wicked men!
37 For he adds (B)rebellion to his sin;
He claps his hands among us,
And multiplies his words against God.”
Job 33:8-12
New King James Version
8 “Surely you have spoken [a]in my hearing,
And I have heard the sound of your words, saying,
9 ‘I(A) am pure, without transgression;
I am innocent, and there is no iniquity in me.
10 Yet He finds occasions against me,
(B)He counts me as His enemy;
11 (C)He puts my feet in the stocks,
He watches all my paths.’
12 “Look, in this you are not righteous.
I will answer you,
For God is greater than man.
