Job 34:30-37 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

30. He causes a hypocritical man to reign because of the sins of the people.

31. Therefore, since I have been speaking about God, I will not prevent you from doing the same.

32. If I have erred, you may teach me; if I have spoken unfairly, I will add no more.

33. Does God require this of you because it is displeasing to you? For you were the first to speak, and not I. But if you know something better, speak.

34. Let men of understanding speak to me, and let a wise man listen to me.

35. But Job has been speaking foolishly, and his words contain unsound teaching.

36. My father, let Job be tested even to the end; may you not retreat from a man of iniquity.

37. For he adds blasphemy on top of his sins; nevertheless, let him be constrained to be among us, and then let him provoke God to judgment with his speeches.
