1 And Eliphaz the Temanite answereth and saith: --
         
                                
                        2 To God is a man profitable, Because a wise man to himself  is profitable?
         
                                
                        3 Is it a delight to the Mighty One That thou art righteous?  is it gain, That thou makest perfect thy ways?
         
                                
                        4 Because of thy reverence Doth He reason [with] thee? He  entereth with thee into judgment:
         
                                
                        5 Is not thy wickedness abundant? And there is no end to  thine iniquities.
         
                                
                        6 For thou takest a pledge of thy brother for nought, And the  garments of the naked Thou dost strip off.
         
                                
                        7 Thou causest not the weary to drink water, And from the  hungry thou withholdest bread.
