1-2 Job, will you be annoyed if I speak?I can't keep quiet any longer.
3 You have taught many peopleand given strength to feeble hands.
4 When someone stumbled, weak and tired,your words encouraged him to stand.
5 Now it's your turn to be in trouble,and you are too stunned to face it.
6 You worshipped God, and your life was blameless;and so you should have confidence and hope.
7 Think back now. Name a single casewhere a righteous person met with disaster.
8 I have seen people plough fields of eviland sow wickedness like seed;now they harvest wickedness and evil.
