Job 20:2-4

New American Standard Bible

² “Therefore my disquieting thoughts make me ^[a]respond,
Even because of my ^[b]inward agitation.
³ I listened to ^(A)the reprimand which insults me,
And the spirit of my understanding makes me answer.
⁴ Do you know this from ^(B)ancient times,
From the establishment of mankind on earth,
