Job 8:2 in context

The verses around it, from Job 8.

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:

2 “How long will you go on saying such things? The words of your mouth are a blustering wind.

3 Does God pervert justice? Does the Almighty pervert what is right?

4 When your children sinned against Him, He gave them over to their rebellion.

5 But if you would earnestly seek God and ask the Almighty for mercy,

6 if you are pure and upright, even now He will rouse Himself on your behalf and restore your righteous estate.
