3. But yet I will speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God.
4. Having first shewn that you are forgers of lies, and maintainers of perverse opinions.
5. And I wish you would hold your peace, that you might be thought to be wise men..
6. Hear ye therefore my reproof, and attend to the judgment of my lips.
7. Hath God any need of your lie, that you should speak deceitfully for him?
8. Do you accept his person, and do you endeavour to judge for God?
9. Or shall it please him, from whom nothing can be concealed? or shall he be deceived as a man, with your deceitful dealings?
10. He shall reprove you, because in secret you accept his person.
11. As soon as he shall move himself, he shall trouble you: and his dread shall fall upon you.
12. Your remembrance shall be compared to ashes, and your necks shall be brought to clay.
13. Hold your peace a little while, that I may speak whatsoever my mind shall suggest to me.
