Job 35:4-8
Christian Standard Bible
4 I will answer you
and your friends with you.
5 Look at the heavens and see;
gaze at the clouds high above you.
6 If you sin, how does it affect God?
If you multiply your transgressions, what does it do to him?
7 If you are righteous, what do you give him,
or what does he receive from your hand?(A)
8 Your wickedness affects a person like yourself,
and your righteousness, a son of man.[a]
