2“Indeed, I know that this is true.

But how can mere mortals prove their innocence before God?

2“In truth I know that this is so;

But how can a person be in the right with God?

2“Yes, I know it is true.

But how can a mortal man be right before God?

2“Yes, I know that it is so,

but how can a mortal be righteous before God?

2Of a truth I know that it is so:

But how can man be just with God?

2I knowe verily that it is so: for howe should man compared vnto God, be iustified?

2“Truly I know that it is so,

but how can man be just with God?

2“I’m sure that what you have said is true.

But how can human beings prove to God they are not guilty?

2‘The things that you have said are true.

But nobody can stand in front of God

and say that he is completely good.

2“Truly I have known that [it is] so, || But how is man righteous with God?
