Anglican
SCRIPTURE

"Far be it from me that I should justify you: Till I die I will not put away mine integrity from me." — Job 27:5 (ASV)

God forbid that I should justify you. —To admit the wickedness with which his friends charged him would have been to justify them—to say that they were right and he was wrong. This he resolves not to do.
