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 and attacked me without shame. 4 Even if I have sinned, it is my worry alone. 5 If you want to make yourselves look better than I, you can blame me for my suffering. 6 Then know that God has wronged me and pulled his net around me. 7 "I shout, ‘I have been wronged!' But I get no answer. I scream for help but I get no justice.
