Job Affirms His Integrity

Job continued his discourse

2 

“ As surely as God lives, who has deprived me of justice —

the Almighty, who has embittered my soul —

3 

as long as my breath is still within me

and the breath of God remains in my nostrils

4 

my lips will not speak wickedness,

and my tongue will not utter deceit.

5 

I will never say that you are right

I will maintain my integrity until I die.

6 

I will cling to my righteousness and never let go.

As long as I live, my conscience will not accuse me.
