Contextual Overview

1 Then Job answered: 2 "How long will you hurt me and crush me with your words? 3 You have insulted me ten times now. You have attacked me without shame! 4 Even if I have sinned, it is my problem, not yours! 5 You want me to look bad to make yourselves look good. You say my troubles are proof that I did wrong. 6 I want you to know it was God who did this. He set this trap for me. 7 I shout, ‘He hurt me!' but get no answer. No one hears my cry for fairness.
