2 “Should an abundance of words go unanswered, or a man full of talk be vindicated?
3 Should your loose talk put people to silence? And when you mock, shall no one put you to shame?
4 For you say, ‘My teaching is pure, and I am clean in your sight.’
5 But, O that God might speak, and that he would open his lips to you,
6 and that he would tell you the secrets of wisdom, for insight has many sides. And know that God on your behalf has forgotten some of your guilt.
7 “Can you find out the essence of God, or can you find out the ultimate limits of Shaddai?
8 It is higher than the heaven; what can you do? It is deeper than Sheol; what can you know?
