1 Job continued speaking:
2 “I vow by the living God, who has taken away my rights,by the Almighty who has embittered my soul—
3 As long as I live,while I have breath from God,
4 my lips will speak no evil,and my tongue will speak no lies.
5 I will never concede that you are right;I will defend my integrity until I die.
6 I will maintain my innocence without wavering.My conscience is clear for as long as I live.
7 “May my enemy be punished like the wicked,my adversary like those who do evil.
