Job 22:2-4

Modern English Version

² “Can a man be profitable to God,
    as he who is wise may be profitable to himself?
³ Is it any pleasure to the Almighty that you are righteous?
    Or is it gain to Him that you make your ways blameless?

⁴ “Is it because of your fear of Him that He corrects you,
    and enters into judgment with you?
