1 Then answered Eliphaz the Temanite, and said,
2 Can a man be profitable unto God? surely he that is wise is profitable unto himself.
3 Is it any pleasure to the Almighty, that thou art righteous? or is it gain to him, that thou makest thy ways perfect?
4 Is it for thy fear of him that he reproveth thee, that he entereth with thee into judgment?
5 Is not thy wickedness great? neither is there any end to thine iniquities.
6 For thou hast taken pledges of thy brother for nought, and stripped the naked of their clothing.
7 Thou hast not given water to the weary to drink, and thou hast withholden bread from the hungry.
