Job opens his mouth in empty talk; he multiplies words without knowledge.”
“Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge?
‘Job speaks without knowledge; his words are without insight.’ Would that Job were tried to the end, because he answers like wicked men. For he adds rebellion to his sin; he claps his hands among us and multiplies his words against God.”
“Surely you have spoken in my ears, and I have heard the sound of your words. You say, ‘I am pure, without transgression; I am clean, and there is no iniquity in me. Behold, he finds occasions against me, he counts me as his enemy, he puts my feet in the stocks and watches all my paths.’ “Behold, in this you are not right. I will answer you, for God is greater than man.
Behold, I open my mouth; the tongue in my mouth speaks.
After this Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth.
