Job 34:7 Context
5For Iob hath said, I am righteous: and God hath taken away my iudgement. 6Should I lye against my right? my wound is incurable without transgression. 7What man is like Iob, who drinketh vp scorning like water? 8Which goeth in company with the workers of iniquitie, and walketh with wicked men. 9For hee hath said, It profiteth a man nothing, that he should delight himselfe with God.
