2Should not the multitude of words be answered? And should a man full of talk be justified?
3Should thy boastings make men hold their peace? And when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed?
4For thou sayest, My doctrine is pure, And I am clean in thine eyes.
5But oh that God would speak, And open his lips against thee,
6And that he would show thee the secrets of wisdom! For he is manifold in understanding. Know therefore that God exacteth of thee less than thine iniquity deserveth.
7Canst thou by searching find out God? Canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection?
8It is high as heaven; what canst thou do? Deeper than Sheol; what canst thou know?
