Contextual Overview

¹ Job's Reply to Bildad Job said: ² How long will you torture me with your words? ³ Isn't ten times enough for you to accuse me? Aren't you ashamed? ⁴ Even if I have sinned, you haven't been harmed. ⁵ You boast of your goodness, claiming I am suffering because I am guilty. ⁶ But God is the one at fault for finding fault with me. ⁷ Though I pray to be rescued from this torment, no whisper of justice answers me.
