3 Does God pervert justice? Or does the Almighty pervert righteousness?
4 If your children have sinned against him, He has delivered them into the hand of their disobedience;
5 If you want to seek God diligently, Make your supplication to the Almighty.
6 If you were pure and upright, Surely now he would awaken for you, And make the habitation of your righteousness prosperous.
7 Though your beginning was small, Yet your latter end would greatly increase.
8 "Please inquire of past generations, Find out about the learning of their fathers.
