Job 15:1-6 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

1. But Eliphaz the Themanite, answering, said:

2. Will a wise man answer as if he were speaking wind, and will he fill his stomach with fire?

3. You rebuke with words he who is not equal to you, and you speak what is not expedient for you,

4. to such an extent that, within yourself, you have expelled reverence and have taken away prayers from the presence of God.

5. For your iniquity has mislead your mouth, and you imitate the tongue of blasphemers.

6. Your own mouth will condemn you, not I; and your own lips will answer you.
