2. How long will you utter such things?The words from your mouth are a mighty wind!
3. Does God pervert judgment,does the Almighty pervert justice?
4. If your children have sinned against himand he has left them in the grip of their guilt,
5. Still, if you yourself have recourse to Godand make supplication to the Almighty,
6. Should you be blameless and upright,surely now he will rouse himself for youand restore your rightful home.
7. Though your beginning was small,your future will flourish indeed.
