Job 35:12

There they cry out, but He does not answer,
because of the pride of evil men.

Then they will call me, but I won’t answer;
they will search for me, but won’t find me.

Show us favor, Lord, show us favor,
for we’ve had more than enough contempt.

We know that God doesn’t listen to sinners, but if anyone is God-fearing and does His will, He listens to him.

They cry for help, but there is no one to save them—
they cry to the Lord, but He does not answer them.

Therefore, pride is their necklace,
and violence covers them like a garment.

I will ascend above the highest clouds;
I will make myself like the Most High.”
