Job 6:27

²⁵ How painful are honest words! But what does your argument prove?

²⁶ Do you intend to correct my words, and treat as wind my cry of despair?

You would even cast lots for an orphan and barter away your friend.

²⁸ But now, please look at me. Would I lie to your face?

²⁹ Reconsider; do not be unjust. Reconsider, for my righteousness is at stake.
