Is there iniquity in my tongue?

Job 6:22–30, “Did I say, Bring unto me? or, Give a reward for me of your substance? Or, Deliver me from the enemy’s hand? or, Redeem me from the hand of the mighty? Teach me, and I will hold my tongue: and cause me to understand wherein I have erred. How forcible are right words! but what doth your arguing reprove? Do ye imagine to reprove words, and the speeches of one that is desperate, which are as wind? Yea, ye overwhelm the fatherless, and ye dig a pit for your friend. Now therefore be content, look upon me; for it is evident unto you if I lie. Return, I pray you, let it not be iniquity; yea, return again, my righteousness is in it. Is there iniquity in my tongue? cannot my taste discern perverse things?”

Job asked his friends if he had been corrupt in any way of if he had dealt with them dishonestly. He wanted to know if he had asked them for money or help of any kind. He told them that if they could prove his wrongdoing then he would keep silent before them. They were accusing him of wrongdoing but they had no evidence to back up their claim. All they were doing was making false accusations.
