2 Should not the multitude of words be answered? and should a man full of talk be justified?
3 Should thy boastings make men hold their peace? and when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed?
4 For thou sayest, My doctrine is pure, and I am clean in thine eyes.
5 But Oh that God would speak, and open his lips against thee;
6 And that he would shew thee the secrets of wisdom, that iris manifold in effectual working! Know therefore that God exacteth of thee less than thine iniquity deserveth.
7 Canst thou by searching find out God? canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection?
8 It is high as heaven; what canst thou do? deeper than Sheol; what canst thou know?
