Good News Bible

Job 13:1-2-8 Good News Bible (GNB)

1-2. Everything you say, I have heard before.I understand it all; I know as much as you do.I'm not your inferior.

3. But my dispute is with God, not you;I want to argue my case with him.

4. You cover up your ignorance with lies;you are like doctors who can't heal anyone.

5. Say nothing, and someone may think you are wise!

6. Listen while I state my case.

7. Why are you lying?Do you think your lies will benefit God?

8. Are you trying to defend him?Are you going to argue his case in court?
