21  I am ^xblameless; I regard not myself;

I ^yloathe my life.

7  although you ^gknow that I am not guilty,

and there is ^hnone to deliver out of your hand?

4  For ^fyou say, ‘My ^gdoctrine is pure,

and I am clean in God’s¹ eyes.’

4  I am ^da laughingstock to my friends;

I, who ^ecalled to God and he answered me,

a just and blameless man, am a laughingstock.

18  Behold, I have ^tprepared my case;

I know that I shall be in the right.

17  although there is no ^bviolence in my hands,

and my prayer is pure.

10  But he ^yknows ^zthe way that I ^atake;

when he has ^btried me, I shall come out as gold.

11  My foot ^chas held fast to his steps;

I have kept his way and have ^dnot turned aside.

5  Far be it from me to say that you are right;

till I die I will not put away my ^wintegrity from me.

14  I ^oput on righteousness, and it clothed me;

my justice was like a robe and ^pa turban.

5  For Job has said, ‘I am ⁱin the right,

and ^jGod has taken away my right;
