Job: What Can I Say?

¹Then the Lord said to Job,

²“Will the faultfinder ^acontend with the Almighty?

Let him who ^breproves God answer it.”

³Then Job answered the Lord and said,

⁴“Behold, I am insignificant; what can I reply to You?

I ^alay my hand on my mouth.

⁵“Once I have spoken, and ^aI will not answer;

Even twice, and I will add nothing more.”
