3. For the ear doth try words, And the palate tasteth to eat.
4. Judgment let us choose for ourselves, Let us know among ourselves what [is] good.
5. For Job hath said, `I have been righteous, And God hath turned aside my right,
6. Against my right do I lie? Mortal [is] mine arrow--without transgression.'
7. Who [is] a man like Job? He drinketh scoffing like water,
8. And he hath travelled for company With workers of iniquity, So as to go with men of wickedness.
9. For he hath said, `It doth not profit a man, When he delighteth himself with God.'
10. Therefore, O men of heart, hearken to me; Far be it from God to do wickedness, And [from] the Mighty to do perverseness:
11. For the work of man he repayeth to him, And according to the path of each He doth cause him to find.
12. Yea, truly, God doth not do wickedly, And the Mighty doth not pervert judgment.
13. Who hath inspected for Himself the earth? And who hath placed all the habitable world?
14. If He doth set on him His heart, His spirit and his breath unto Him He gathereth.
