False.

Explanation:

The book of Job in the Holy Bible is the 18th book of the Old Testament. It contains the story of Job and his suffering inflicted by Satan to try to prove to God how His loyal followers can change their stance if made to suffer beyond comprehension.

When Satan got permission from God to test Job, he inflicted him with boils all over his body after killing his children and livestock. After the misfortune, his three friends Bildad, Eliphaz, and Zophar came to visit him. They consoled him and also asked him to repent and ask God for forgiveness. But Job maintains that he is innocent and

"If only I knew where to find him;

if only I could go to his dwelling!

I would state my case before him

and fill my mouth with arguments.

I would find out what he would answer me,

and consider what he would say to me.

Would he vigorously oppose me?

No, he would not press charges against me.

There the upright can establish their innocence before him,

and there I would be delivered forever from my judge." (Job 23: 3-7)

This clearly shows how Job knows he's innocent and does not sin, and that he is willing to suffer as long as God alone knows the truth about him.
