Job 33:4-11 New Century Version (NCV)

4. The Spirit of God created me,and the breath of the Almighty gave me life.

5. Answer me if you can;get yourself ready and stand before me.

6. I am just like you before God;I too am made out of clay.

7. Don’t be afraid of me;I will not be hard on you.

8. “But I heard what you have said;I heard every word.

9. You said, ‘I am pure and without sin;I am innocent and free from guilt.

10. But God has found fault with me;he considers me his enemy.

11. He locks my feet in chainsand closely watches everywhere I go.’
