Job 31:14

Job's Final Defense Continued

¹³
“If I have despised and rejected the claim of my male or female servants
When they filed a complaint against me,
¹⁴ 
What then could I do when God arises [to judge me]?
When He calls me to account, what will I answer Him?
¹⁵

And did not the same One fashion us both in the womb?
