Listen from:
Here Job makes a grand defense of himself, taking 40 verses to do it. He protests that he is innocent by using the following arguments.
V.1 He was moral.
V.3-12 He was just and fair with other people.
V.13 He was nice to his servants.
V.15-20 Kind to the poor.
V.21 Never took advantage of orphans.
V.24-25 Did not love money.
V.26-28 Hated worshipping other gods (like the sun).
V.29-30 Never took revenge.
V.31-34 Was kind to strangers, and afraid of no-one.
V.38-40 If his fields could claim he was cruel, then let thorns come up in them. Do you think such a man could ever learn the lesson God was trying to teach him? Wait.
