2. Can a man be profitable unto God? For he that is wise is profitable unto himself.
3. Is it any pleasure to the Almighty that thou art justified? Or is it gain to him that thou makest thy ways perfect?
4. Will he reprove thee or will he enter with thee into judgment because he fears thee?
5. Certainly thy wickedness is great and thine iniquities have no end.
6. For thou didst take a pledge from thy brother without cause and stripped the naked of their clothing.
7. Thou didst not give water to drink to the weary, and thou hast withheld bread from the hungry.
