But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment.

For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.

And he said to him, Out of your own mouth I will judge you, you wicked servant. You knew that I was a harsh man, taking up what I did not lay down and reaping what I did not sow.

For He crushes me with a tempest, and multiplies my wounds without cause.

although You know that I am not wicked, and there is no one who can rescue out of Your hand?

although no violence is in my hands, and my prayer is pure.

know then that God has bowed me, and has surrounded me with His net.

Behold, I cry out concerning injustice, but I am not heard. I cry aloud, but there is no justice.

As the Mighty God lives, who has taken away my justice, and the Almighty, who has made my soul bitter,

my lips will not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit.

I hold fast to my righteousness, and will not let it go; my heart does not reproach any of my days.

For Job has said, I am righteous, but the Mighty God has taken away my justice;

Would you indeed annul My judgment? Would you condemn Me so that you may be justified?
