Job 22:2-4

EasyEnglish Bible

² ‘Nothing that a man can do will help God.
    Even a wise man cannot help God.
³ If you are a righteous person,
    it does nothing to help Almighty God.
If you live a completely good life,
    it still does not help him.
⁴ It is not because you respect and obey God
    that he punishes you.
It is not because you are a good person
    that he accuses you.
