2 Thinkest H2803 thou this to be right, H4941 that thou saidst, H559 My righteousness H6664 is more than God's? H410
But G1161 I say G3004 unto you, G5213 That G3754 every G3956 idle G692 word G4487 that G3739 G1437 men G444 shall speak, G2980 they shall give G591 account G3056 thereof G4012 G846 in G1722 the day G2250 of judgment. G2920 For G1063 by G1537 thy G4675 words G3056 thou shalt be justified, G1344 and G2532 by G1537 thy G4675 words G3056 thou shalt be condemned. G2613
Know H3045 now H645 that God H433 hath overthrown H5791 me, and hath compassed H5362 me with his net. H4686 Behold, I cry out H6817 of wrong, H2555 but I am not heard: H6030 I cry aloud, H7768 but there is no judgment. H4941
As God H410 liveth, H2416 who hath taken away H5493 my judgment; H4941 and the Almighty, H7706 who hath vexed H4843 my soul; H5315 All the while H5750 my breath H5397 is in me, and the spirit H7307 of God H433 is in my nostrils; H639 My lips H8193 shall not speak H1696 wickedness, H5766 nor my tongue H3956 utter H1897 deceit. H7423 God forbid H2486 that I should justify H6663 you: till I die H1478 I will not remove H5493 mine integrity H8538 from me. My righteousness H6666 I hold H2388 fast, and will not let it go: H7503 my heart H3824 shall not reproach H2778 me so long as I live. H3117
