Job 6:23-30 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

23. or, "Free me from the hand of the enemy and rescue me from the hand of the strong?"

24. Teach me, and I will be silent, and if by chance I have been ignorant of anything, instruct me.

25. Why have you diminished the words of truth, when there is none of you who is able to offer proof against me?

26. You prepare speeches as so much noise, and you offer words into the wind.

27. You encroach upon the orphan, and you strive to undermine your friend.

28. Such is true, so finish what you have begun. Listen closely, and see if I lie.

29. Respond, I beg you, without contention, and, speaking what is just, pass judgment.

30. And you will not find iniquity on my tongue, nor will foolishness resound in my throat.
