Read in context

Job 22:2–6 · Berean Standard Bible

2 “Can a man be of use to God? Can even a wise man benefit Him?

3 Does it delight the Almighty that you are righteous? Does He profit if your ways are blameless?

4 Is it for your reverence that He rebukes you and enters into judgment against you?

5 Is not your wickedness great? Are not your iniquities endless?

6 For you needlessly demanded security from your brothers and deprived the naked of their clothing.
