3 Does God pervert justice?Or does the Almighty pervert what is right?
4 If your children sinned against him,he gave them over to the penalty of their sin.
5 But if you will look to God,and make your supplication to the Almighty,
6 if you become pure and upright,even now he will rouse himself for you,and will restore your righteous abode.
7 Your beginning will seem so small,since your future will flourish.
8 “For inquire now of the former generation,and pay attention to the findings of their ancestors;
9 For we were born yesterday and do not have knowledge,since our days on earth are but a shadow.
