1 And Job again took up the word and said,
         
                                
                        2 By the life of God, who has taken away my right; and of the Ruler of all, who has made my soul bitter;
         
                                
                        3 (For all my breath is still in me, and the spirit of God is my life;)
         
                                
                        4 Truly, there is no deceit in my lips, and my tongue does not say what is false.
         
                                
                        5 Let it be far from me! I will certainly not say that you are right! I will come to death before I give up my righteousness.
         
                                
                        6 I will keep it safe, and will not let it go: my heart has nothing to say against any part of my life.
         
                                
                        7 Let my hater be like the evil man, and let him who comes against me be as the sinner.
