3 Does God subvert judgment?Or does the Almighty pervert justice?
4 If your sons have sinned against Him,He has cast them away for their transgression.
5 If you would earnestly seek GodAnd make your supplication to the Almighty,
6 If you were pure and upright,Surely now He would awake for you,And prosper your rightful dwelling place.
7 Though your beginning was small,Yet your latter end would increase abundantly.
8 “For inquire, please, of the former age,And consider the things discovered by their fathers;
9 For we were born yesterday, and know nothing,Because our days on earth are a shadow.
