1 “But now, please hear my speeches, Job, and hear all my words.
2 Please look, I open my mouth; my tongue in my mouth speaks.
3 My words declare my heart’s uprightness, and my lips sincerely speak what my lips know.
4 The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of Shaddai gives life to me.
5 “If you are able, answer me. Present your argument before me; take your stand.
6 Look, before God I am like you; I myself was also formed from clay.
