Formed from the same clay

1But now, Job, please hear my words, and listen to everything I say.

2Look, I have opened my mouth; my tongue has spoken in my palate.

3My words come from an upright heart, and my lips speak plainly what I know.

4The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.

5If you are able, answer me; set your case in order before me; take your stand.

6Look, before God I am like you; I too was pinched from clay.

7Look, my terror will not frighten you, and my pressure on you will not be heavy.
