Job 32:22

22 I was never any good at bootlicking; my Maker would make short work of me if I started in now!

Job 32:22 In-Context

20 I have to speak - I have no choice. I have to say what's on my heart,
21 And I'm going to say it straight - the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
22 I was never any good at bootlicking; my Maker would make short work of me if I started in now!
