Job 11:4

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

Job 11:4 · BSB

Job 11:4 in context

The verses around it, from Job 11.

1 Then Zophar the Naamathite replied:

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?

4 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.

7 Can you fathom the deep things of God or discover the limits of the Almighty?

8 They are higher than the heavens—what can you do? They are deeper than Sheol—what can you know?
