Contextual Overview

1 Then Job answered, 2 "How long will you make me suffer and crush me with words? 3 Ten times you have put me to shame and are not ashamed to wrong me. 4 Even if it is true that I have done wrong, it stays with me. 5 You put yourselves up high against me, and try to prove my shame to me. 6 You will know then that God has wronged me, and has set a trap around me. 7 "See, I cry, ‘Someone is hurting me!' but I get no answer. I call for help, but no one stands for what is right and fair.
