Verse 6 is found in chapter 4 of Job. Eliphaz begins the first cycle of speeches by appealing to experience and to an idea of retributive justice. He suggests that those who sow evil reap calamity and that destruction reaches the wicked. Although he recognizes ancient wisdom concerning divine justice, his argument begins reducing Job’s suffering to an overly simple scheme.

Ist nicht deine Gottesfurcht dein Trost, deine Hoffnung die Unsträflichkeit deiner Wege?
¿Es este tu temor, tu confianza, Tu esperanza, y la perfección de tus caminos?
¿No es tu reverencia tu confianza, y la integridad de tus caminos tu esperanza?
Ta crainte de Dieu n'est-elle pas ton soutien? Ton espérance, n'est-ce pas ton intégrité?
La tua pietà non è ella stata la tua speranza, E l’integrità delle tue vie la tua aspettazione?
Porventura não é o teu temor de Deus a tua confiança, e a tua esperança a integridade dos teus caminhos?
你的倚靠不是在於你敬畏上帝嗎? 你的盼望不是在於你行事純正嗎?
