Job 11:4

Pride

2 “Should this stream of words go unanswered and such a speaker be vindicated?

3 Should your babbling put others to silence? Will you scoff without rebuke?

You have said, ‘My doctrine is sound, and I am pure in Your sight.’

5 But if only God would speak and open His lips against you,

6 and disclose to you the secrets of wisdom, for true wisdom has two sides. Know then that God exacts from you less than your iniquity deserves.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
