Job 23:5

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

I will say to God, 'You should not condemn me; let me know why you contend [against] me.

Then call, and I myself will answer; or let me speak, then reply to me.

"I know that you can do all [things], and [any] scheme from you will not be thwarted.

But to me it is a very little matter that I be judged by you or by a human court, but I do not [even] judge myself.

But to me it is a very little matter that I be judged by you or by a human court, but I do not [even] judge myself.

But, {O that} God might speak, and [that] he would open his lips to you,

"Who [is] this darkening counsel by words without knowledge?
