3 For the ear tries words as the palate tastes food.
4 Let us choose what is right for us; let us know among us what is good.
5 For Iyoḇ has said, ‘I am righteous, but Ěl has taken away my right.
6 Would I lie concerning my right? My wound is incurable – without transgression.’
7 What man is like Iyoḇ, who drinks mocking like water,
8 who goes in company with the workers of wickedness, and walks with men of wrongness?
9 For he has said, ‘It does not profit a man that he takes delight in Elohim.’
