Job 22:2 - Forerunner Commentary

Job 22:2

1 Then ^aEliphaz the Temanite answered and said:

2 “Can^a a man be profitable to God,
Though he who is wise may be profitable to himself?

3 Is it any pleasure to the Almighty that you are righteous?
Or is it gain to Him that you make your ways blameless?

4 “Is it because of your fear of Him that He corrects you,
And enters into judgment with you?

5 Is not your wickedness great,
And your iniquity without end?
