But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:

For he breaketh me with a tempest, and multiplieth my wounds without cause.

Thou knowest that I am not wicked; and there is none that can deliver out of thine hand.

Not for any injustice in mine hands: also my prayer is pure.

Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath compassed me with his net.

Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard: I cry aloud, but there is no judgment.

As God liveth, who hath taken away my judgment; and the Almighty, who hath vexed my soul;

My lips shall not speak wickedness, nor my tongue utter deceit.

My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach me so long as I live.

For Job hath said, I am righteous: and God hath taken away my judgment.

Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?
