# My right before God
Possible meanings are 1) Job is claiming to be innocent before God or 2) Job is claiming that he, rather than God, is right.
# For you ask, 'What use is it to me?' and, 'Would I be better off if I had sinned?'

Elihu quotes Job as saying the these two rhetorical questions. AT: "For you say, 'It does not benefit me' and, 'I am no better off than if I had sinned.'" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])
