Job 27:1-6

International Standard Version

² “The living God has withheld justice from me;
    the Almighty has made my life^[a] bitter.
³ As long as I can breathe;
    as long as God’s breath is in my nostrils,
⁴ I won’t speak lies
    nor will I utter deceit.
⁵ Far be it from me to admit that you’re right!
    I intend to maintain my integrity^[b] even if it kills me!
⁶ I’ll retain my righteousness and not compromise it;
    my conscience won’t rebuke me at any time.
