His wisdom is deep. His power is great. No one opposes him and comes away unharmed.

The foolish things of God are wiser than human wisdom. The weakness of God is stronger than human strength.

“ God isn’t a mere human being like me. I can’t answer him. We can’t take each other to court.I wish someone would settle matters between us. I wish someone would bring us together.

So answer me if you can. Stand up and argue your case in front of me.To God I’m just the same as you. I too am a piece of clay.You don’t have to be afraid of me. My hand won’t be too heavy on you.

“ I wish someone would listen to me! I’m signing my name to everything I’ve said. I hope the Mighty One will give me his answer. I hope the one who brings charges against me will write them down.

Keep us from sinning when we are tempted. Save us from the evil one.’

But now you are loaded down with the punishment sinners will receive. You have been judged fairly.Be careful that no one tempts you with riches. Don’t take money from people who want special favors, no matter how much it is.Can your wealth keep you out of trouble? Can all your mighty efforts keep you going?

God, I have heard you say two things. One is that power belongs to you, God.

Are we trying to make the Lord jealous? Are we stronger than he is?

Is your arm as powerful as mine is? Can your voice thunder as mine does?Then put on glory and beauty as if they were your clothes. Also put on honor and majesty.
