Job 34:9 in context

  1. 7What man is like Job,
    who drinks scorn like water,
  2. 8Who goes in company with the workers of iniquity,
    and walks with wicked men?
  3. 9For he has said, ‘It profits a man nothing
    that he should delight himself with God.’
  4. 10“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.
  5. 11For the work of a man he will render to him,
    and cause every man to find according to his ways.
