3 Is it any pleasure to the Almighty that you are righteous?Or is it gain to Him that you make your ways blameless?
4 “Is it because of your fear of Him that He corrects you,And enters into judgment with you?
5 Is not your wickedness great,And your iniquity without end?
6 For you have taken pledges from your brother for no reason,And stripped the naked of their clothing.
7 You have not given the weary water to drink,And you have withheld bread from the hungry.
8 But the mighty man possessed the land,And the honorable man dwelt in it.
9 You have sent widows away empty,And the strength of the fatherless was crushed.
