12. God does not answer evil people when they cry for help.This is because they are too proud.
13. He does not listen to their useless begging.God All-Powerful pays no attention to them.
14. He will listen to you even lesswhen you say you do not see him.He will not listen when you say your case is before himand you must wait for him.
15. He will not listen when you say his anger never punishesand that he doesn’t notice evil.
16. So Job is only speaking useless words.He says many words without knowing what is true.”
