Verse 9 is found in chapter 8 of Job. Bildad responds by firmly defending divine justice. He considers the death of Job’s children evidence that there was transgression and maintains that God does not pervert justice. His reasoning reflects traditional retributive theology: if someone suffers severe calamity, there must be a corresponding moral cause.
