1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said:
2 “Should a wise man answer with empty knowledge,And fill himself with the east wind?
3 Should he reason with unprofitable talk,Or by speeches with which he can do no good?
4 Yes, you cast off fear,And restrain prayer before God.
5 For your iniquity teaches your mouth,And you choose the tongue of the crafty.
6 Your own mouth condemns you, and not I;Yes, your own lips testify against you.
