Job 6:29

JusticeIntegrity

27 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?

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

30 Is there iniquity on my tongue? Can my mouth not discern malice?
