Job 35:2

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more than God's?

“For He bruises me with a tempest
And multiplies my wounds without cause.

‘According to Your knowledge I am indeed not guilty,
Yet there is no deliverance from Your hand.

Although there is no violence in my hands,
And my prayer is pure.

Know then that God has wronged me
And has closed His net around me.

“As God lives, who has taken away my right,
And the Almighty, who has embittered my soul,

“For Job has said, ‘I am righteous,
But God has taken away my right;

“Will you really annul My judgment?
Will you condemn Me that you may be justified?

“Yet your fellow citizens say, ‘The way of the Lord is not right,’ when it is their own way that is not right.
