As God liveth, who hath taken away my judgment; and the Almighty, who hath vexed my soul;
I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.
Great men are not always wise: neither do the aged understand judgment.
Let us choose to us judgment: let us know among ourselves what is good.
For Job hath said, I am righteous: and God hath taken away my judgment.
Yea, surely God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert judgment.

Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?
