3 For you say, ‘Of what use is it to you? What do I gain more than if I had sinned?’
4 Let me answer you and your friends with you.
5 Look to the heavens, and see. And consider the clouds which are higher than you.
6 If you sin, what would you do against Him? If your transgressions are increased, what would you do to Him?
7 If you are righteous, what do you give Him? Or what does He receive from your hand?
8 Your wrong is for a man like yourself, and your righteousness for a son of man.
9 Because of the multitude of oppressions they cry out; they cry out for help because of the arm of the many.
