Eliphaz's First Response To Job

⁵
“But now adversity comes upon you, and you are impatient and intolerant;
It touches you, and you are horrified.
⁶ 
“Is not your fear of God your confidence,
And [is not] the integrity and uprightness of your ways your hope? ⁷
“Remember now, who, being innocent, ever perished?
Or where [and in what circumstances] were those upright and in right standing with God destroyed?
