5 ‘Job says, “I am innocent,but God denies me justice.
6 Although I am right,I am considered a liar;although I am guiltless,his arrow inflicts an incurable wound.”
7 Is there anyone like Job,who drinks scorn like water?
8 He keeps company with evildoers;he associates with the wicked.
9 For he says, “There is no profitin trying to please God.”
10 ‘So listen to me, you men of understanding.Far be it from God to do evil,from the Almighty to do wrong.
11 He repays everyone for what they have done;he brings on them what their conduct deserves.
