1-2 Everything you say, I have heard before.I understand it all; I know as much as you do.I'm not your inferior.
3 But my dispute is with God, not you;I want to argue my case with him.
4 You cover up your ignorance with lies;you are like doctors who can't heal anyone.
5 Say nothing, and someone may think you are wise!
6 Listen while I state my case.
7 Why are you lying?Do you think your lies will benefit God?
8 Are you trying to defend him?Are you going to argue his case in court?
