Job 23:5

I would know the words which he would answer me, and understand what he would say to me.

I will say to God, Do not condemn me. Show me why thou contend with me.

Then call thou, and I will answer, or let me speak, and answer thou me.

I know that thou can do all things, and that no purpose of thine can be restrained.

But it is a very small thing to me that I might be appraised by you or by a day of mankind. Yet neither do I appraise myself,

I would know the words which he would answer me, and understand what he would say unto me.

I will say to God, Do not condemn me. Show me why thou contend with me.

Then call thou, and I will answer, or let me speak, and answer thou me.

I know that thou can do all things, and that no purpose of thine can be restrained.

But it is a very small thing to me that I might be appraised by you or by a day of mankind. Yet neither do I appraise myself,

But O that God would speak, and open his lips against thee,

Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge?
