Job 34:10-12

Context
God is Not Unjust

34:10 “Therefore, listen to me, you men of understanding. 1 

Far be it from 2  God to do wickedness,

from the Almighty to do evil.

34:11 For he repays a person for his work, 3 

and according to the conduct of a person,

he causes the consequences to find him. 4 

34:12 Indeed, in truth, God does not act wickedly,

and the Almighty does not pervert justice.
