Bible verse
But you even undermine the fear of God and hinder meditation before Him.
Job 15:4 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 15.
1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite replied:
2 “Does a wise man answer with empty counsel or fill his belly with the hot east wind?
3 Should he argue with useless words or speeches that serve no purpose?
4 But you even undermine the fear of God and hinder meditation before Him.
5 For your iniquity instructs your mouth, and you choose the language of the crafty.
6 Your own mouth, not mine, condemns you; your own lips testify against you.
7 Were you the first man ever born? Were you brought forth before the hills?
8 Do you listen in on the council of God or limit wisdom to yourself?
