Surrounding context
Notwithstanding my right I am considered a liar. My wound is incurable, though I am without disobedience.’
What man is like Job, who drinks scorn like water,
Who goes in company with the workers of iniquity, and walks with wicked men?
For he has said, ‘It profits a man nothing that he should delight himself with God.’
“Therefore listen to me, you men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness, from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.
For the work of a man he will render to him, and cause every man to find according to his ways.
Yes surely, God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert justice.
