1 Then Zophar, the Naamathite, answered,
2 “Shouldn’t the multitude of words be answered?Should a man full of talk be justified?
3 Should your boastings make men hold their peace?When you mock, shall no man make you ashamed?
4 For you say, ‘My doctrine is pure.I am clean in your eyes.’
5 But oh that God would speak,and open his lips against you,
6 that he would show you the secrets of wisdom!For true wisdom has two sides.Know therefore that God exacts of you less than your iniquity deserves.
