"Is it for thy fear of him that he reproveth thee, That he entereth with thee into judgment? "
— Job 22:4, American Standard Version
“Will he reprove thee for fear of thee? will he enter with thee into judgment?”
“Is it for your piety that he reproves you, that he enters with you into judgment?”
“Is it because of your piety that he rebukes you and goes to judgment with you?”
“Shall he reprove thee for fear, and come with thee into judgment:”
“Is it because you give him honour that he is sending punishment on you and is judging you?”
“Will he reprove thee for fear of thee? will he enter with thee into judgment?”
Then answered Eliphaz the Temanite, and said,
Can a man be profitable unto God? Surely he that is wise is profitable unto himself.
Is it any pleasure to the Almighty, that thou art righteous? Or is it gainto him, that thou makest thy ways perfect?
Is it for thy fear of him that he reproveth thee, That he entereth with thee into judgment?
Is not thy wickedness great? Neither is there any end to thine iniquities.
For thou hast taken pledges of thy brother for nought, And stripped the naked of their clothing.
Thou hast not given water to the weary to drink, And thou hast withholden bread from the hungry.
