1. Therefore, Job, hear now my reasons, and hearken to all my words.
2. Behold, now I shall open my mouth, my tongue shall speak in my mouth.
3. My reasons declare the uprightness of my heart; and my lips shall utter pure knowledge.
4. The Spirit of God made me, and the breath of the Almighty gave me life.
5. If thou canst answer me, set thy words in order before me, stand up.
