5 I will never admit you are in the right; till I die, I will not deny my integrity.
5 God forbid that I should justify you: till I die I will not remove mine integrity from me.
5 Far be it from me to say that you are right; till I die I will not put away my integrity from me.
5 There is no way I'll ever agree to your accusations. I'll not deny my integrity even if it costs me my life.
5 Far be it from me That I should say you are right; Till I die I will not put away my integrity from me.
5 I will never concede that you are right; I will defend my integrity until I die.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Job 27:5
Commentary on Job 27:1-6
(Read Job 27:1-6)
Job's friends now suffered him to speak, and he proceeded in a grave and useful manner. Job had confidence in the goodness both of his cause and of his God; and cheerfully committed his cause to him. But Job had not due reverence when he spake of God as taking away his judgment, and vexing his soul. To resolve that our hearts shall not reproach us, while we hold fast our integrity, baffles the designs of the evil spirit.
