"Will he reprove you and take you to judgment for being afraid, "
— Job 22:4, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Will he reprove thee for fear of thee? will he enter with thee into judgment?”
“Is it for thy fear of him that he reproveth thee, That he entereth 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 Eliphaz the Themanite responded by saying:
Can man be compared with God, even if he were perfect in knowledge?
What advantage is it to God, if you were just? Or what do you provide for him, if your way should be immaculate?
Will he reprove you and take you to judgment for being afraid,
and not because of your many evil deeds and your infinite unfairness?
For you have taken away the collateral of your brothers without cause, and stripped them naked of their clothing.
You have not given water to the weary; you have taken bread away from the hungry.
