1 And Zophar the Naamathite answered and said:
2 Should not many words be answered,or must the garrulous man necessarily be right?
3 Shall your babblings keep others silent,and shall you deride and no one give rebuke?
4 Shall you say: “My teaching is pure,and I am clean in your sight”?
5 But oh, that God would speak,and open his lips against you,
6 And tell you the secrets of wisdom,for good sense has two sides;So you might learn that Godoverlooks some of your sinfulness.
