Job 13:9 in Context — Job 13

7 Direz-vous en faveur de Dieu ce qui est injuste, Et pour le soutenir alléguerez-vous des faussetés?

8 Voulez-vous avoir égard à sa personne? Voulez-vous plaider pour Dieu?

9 S’il vous sonde, vous approuvera-t-il? Ou le tromperez-vous comme on trompe un homme?

10 Certainement il vous condamnera, Si vous n’agissez en secret que par égard pour sa personne.

11 Sa majesté ne vous épouvantera-t-elle pas? Sa terreur ne tombera-t-elle pas sur vous?
