Surely thou hast spoken in mine hearing, and I have heard the voice of thy words, saying,

Behold, he findeth occasions against me, he counteth me for his enemy,

Behold, in this thou art not just: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.

Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.

I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee.

Can that which is unsavoury be eaten without salt? or is there any taste in the white of an egg?

Doth not the ear try words? and the mouth taste his meat?

For the ear trieth words, as the mouth tasteth meat.

But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
