Job 21:1-6

Job 1Then Job replied:

2“Listen carefully to my words; let this be the consolation you give me.

3Bear with me while I speak, and after I have spoken, mock on.

4“Is my complaint directed to a human being? Why should I not be impatient?

5Look at me and be appalled; clap your hand over your mouth.

6When I think about this, I am terrified; trembling seizes my body.
