⁵ For Job has said, I am upright, and it is God who has taken away my right;

² By the life of God, who has taken away my right; and of the Ruler of all, who has made my soul bitter;

⁹ I am clean, without sin; I am washed, and there is no evil in me:

¹⁷ For I would be crushed by his storm, my wounds would be increased without cause.

⁷ Though you see that I am not an evil-doer; and there is no one who is able to take a man out of your hands?

⁴ You may say, My way is clean, and I am free from sin in your eyes.

¹⁷ Though my hands have done no violent acts, and my prayer is clean.

¹⁴ I put on righteousness as my clothing, and was full of it; right decisions were to me a robe and a head-dress.

¹ So these three men gave no more answers to Job, because he seemed to himself to be right.
