Job 15:1

Verse 1 of 35. The 15th of 42 chapters in Job, in Poetry and Wisdom.

1Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered,

2“Should a wise man answer with vain knowledge, and fill himself with the east wind?

3Should he reason with unprofitable talk, or with speeches with which he can do no good?

4Yes, you do away with fear, and hinder devotion before God.

5For your iniquity teaches your mouth, and you choose the language of the crafty.
