¹ And Job answereth and saith: --

^{2 Ref} Truly I have known that `it is' so, And what -- is man righteous with God?

^{3 Ref} If he delight to strive with Him -- He doth not answer him one of a thousand.

^{4 Ref} Wise in heart and strong in power -- Who hath hardened toward Him and is at peace?

^{5 Ref} Who is removing mountains, And they have not known, Who hath overturned them in His anger.

¹ Then Job answered,

^{2 Ref} "Truly I know that it is so, But how can man be just with God?

^{3 Ref} If he is pleased to contend with him, He can't answer him one time in a thousand.

^{4 Ref} God who is wise in heart, and mighty in strength: Who has hardened himself against him, and prospered?

^{5 Ref} Who removes the mountains, and they don't know it, When he overturns them in his anger
