Job 22:6 in Context — Job 22

4 Acaso ele te repreende [e] vem contigo a juízo por causa da tua reverência?

5 [Ou] não será por causa de tua grande malícia, e de tuas maldades que não têm fim?

6 Porque tomaste penhor a teus irmãos sem causa, e foste tu que tiraste as roupas dos nus.

7 Não deste de beber água ao cansado, e negaste o pão ao faminto.

8 Porém o homem poderoso teve a terra; e o homem influente habitava nela.
