4 I am going to answer you and your friends too.
5 Look at the sky! See how high the clouds are!
6 If you sin, that does no harm to God.If you do wrong many times, does that affect him?
7 Do you help God by being so righteous?There is nothing God needs from you.
8 Others suffer from your sins,and the good you do helps them.
9 When people are oppressed, they groan;they cry for someone to save them.
10 But they don't turn to God, their Creator,who gives them hope in their darkest hours.
