Job 34:5-9
Authorized (King James) Version
5 For Job hath said, I am righteous:
and God hath taken away my judgment.
6 Should I lie against my right?
my wound is incurable without transgression.
7 What man is like Job,
who drinketh up scorning like water?
8 Which goeth in company with the workers of iniquity,
and walketh with wicked men.
9 For he hath said, It profiteth a man nothing
that he should delight himself with God.
Job 34:5-9
New King James Version
5 “For Job has said, (A)‘I am righteous,
But (B)God has taken away my justice;
6 (C)Should I lie concerning my right?
My [a]wound is incurable, though I am without transgression.’
7 What man is like Job,
(D)Who drinks [b]scorn like water,
8 Who goes in company with the workers of iniquity,
And walks with wicked men?
9 For (E)he has said, ‘It profits a man nothing
That he should delight in God.’
