Job 34:4 In-Context

2 "Hear my words, you wise men; listen to me, you who know a lot.
3 The ear tests words as the tongue tastes food.
4 Let's decide for ourselves what is right, and let's learn together what is good.
5 "Job says, 'I am not guilty, and God has refused me a fair trial.
6 Instead of getting a fair trial, I am called a liar. I have been seriously hurt, even though I have not sinned.'
