5 Oh, that you would be altogether silent;that for you would be wisdom!
6 Hear now my argumentand listen to the accusations from my lips.
7 Is it for God that you speak falsehood?Is it for him that you utter deceit?
8 Is it for him that you show partiality?Do you make accusations on behalf of God?
9 Will it be well when he shall search you out?Can you deceive him as you do a mere human being?
10 He will openly rebuke youif in secret you show partiality.
11 Surely his majesty will frighten youand dread of him fall upon you.
