² What ye know, `the same' do I know also: I am not inferior unto you.

³ But I have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior to you: Yea, who knoweth not such things as these?

¹¹ I am become foolish: ye compelled me; for I ought to have been commended of you: for in nothing was I behind the very chiefest apostles, though I am nothing.

¹⁶ I say again, let no man think me foolish; but if `ye do', yet as foolish receive me, that I also may glory a little.

¹⁷ That which I speak, I speak not after the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of glorying.

¹⁸ Seeing that many glory after the flesh, I will glory also.

⁴ For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we did not preach, or `if' ye receive a different spirit, which ye did not receive, or a different gospel, which ye did not accept, ye do well to bear with `him'.

⁵ For I reckon that I am not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles.

¹ Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but love edifieth.

² If any man thinketh that he knoweth anything, he knoweth not yet as he ought to know;

⁷ And it was so, that, after Jehovah had spoken these words unto Job, Jehovah said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath.

⁴ Behold, I am of small account; What shall I answer thee? I lay my hand upon my mouth.

⁵ Once have I spoken, and I will not answer; Yea, twice, but I will proceed no further.

² Hear, oh, hear the noise of his voice, And the sound that goeth out of his mouth.

¹⁶ Therefore doth Job open his mouth in vanity; He multiplieth words without knowledge.

³⁵ Job speaketh without knowledge, And his words are without wisdom.

⁸ Hast thou heard the secret counsel of God? And dost thou limit wisdom to thyself?

⁹ What knowest thou, that we know not? What understandest thou, which is not in us?
