Job 11:2-4

“Shall a multitude of words not be answered? And should a talkative man [making such a long-winded defense] be acquitted? “Should your boasts and babble silence men? And shall you scoff and no one put you to shame? “For you have said, ‘My teaching (doctrine) [that God knowingly afflicts the righteous] is pure, And I am innocent in your eyes.’ [Job 10:7]
