Rh :And let a wise man hearken unto me.
 * Job hath spoken without knowledge,
 * And his words were without wisdom.
 * My desire is that Job may be tried unto the end
 * Because of his answers for wicked men.
 * For he addeth rebellion unto his sin,
 * He clappeth his hands among us,
 * And multipheth his words against God.

spake moreover, and said,
 * thou this to be right,
 * That thou saidst, My righteousness is more than God's?
 * For thou saidst, What advantage will it be unto thee?
 * And, What profit shall I have, if I be cleansed from my sin?
 * I will answer thee,
 * And thy companions with thee.
 * Look unto the heavens, and see;
 * And behold the clouds which are higher than thou.
 * If thou sinnest, what doest thou against him?
 * Or if thy transgressions be multiplied, what doest thou unto him?
 * If thou be righteous, what givest thou him?
 * Or what receiveth he of thine hand?
 * Thy wickedness may hurt a man as thou art;
 * And thy righteousness may profit the son of man.
