Job 9 Verses
2
|
"Truly, I know that this is so. But how can a human be just before God? |
3
|
If someone wishes to contend with him, he cannot answer him one time in a thousand. |
4
|
He is wise in heart and mighty in strength— who has resisted him and remained safe? |
5
|
He who removes mountains suddenly, who overturns them in his anger; |
6
|
he who shakes the earth out of its place so that its pillars tremble; |
7
|
he who commands the sun and it does not shine and seals up the stars; |
8
|
he alone spreads out the heavens, and treads on the waves of the sea; |
9
|
he makes the Bear, Orion, and the Pleiades, and the constellations of the southern sky; |
10
|
he does great and unsearchable things, and wonderful things without number. |
11
|
If he passes by me, I cannot see him, if he goes by, I cannot perceive him. |
12
|
If he snatches away, who can turn him back? Who dares to say to him, 'What are you doing?' |
13
|
God does not restrain his anger; under him the helpers of Rahab lie crushed. |
14
|
"How much less, then, can I answer him and choose my words to argue with him! |
15
|
Although I am innocent, I could not answer him; I could only plead with my judge for mercy. |
16
|
If I summoned him, and he answered me, I would not believe that he would be listening to my voice— |
17
|
he who crushes me with a tempest, and multiplies my wounds for no reason. |
18
|
He does not allow me to recover my breath, for he fills me with bitterness. |
19
|
If it is a matter of strength, most certainly he is the strong one! And if it is a matter of justice, he will say, 'Who will summon me?' |
20
|
Although I am innocent, my mouth would condemn me; although I am blameless, it would declare me perverse. |
21
|
I am blameless. I do not know myself. I despise my life. |
22
|
"It is all one! That is why I say, 'He destroys the blameless and the guilty.' |
23
|
If a scourge brings sudden death, he mocks at the despair of the innocent. |
24
|
If a land has been given into the hand of a wicked man, he covers the faces of its judges; if it is not he, then who is it? |
25
|
"My days are swifter than a runner, they speed by without seeing happiness. |
26
|
They glide by like reed boats, like an eagle that swoops down on its prey. |
27
|
If I say, 'I will forget my complaint, I will change my expression and be cheerful,' |
28
|
I dread all my sufferings, for I know that you do not hold me blameless. |
29
|
If I am guilty, why then weary myself in vain? |
30
|
If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands clean with lye, |
31
|
then you plunge me into a slimy pit and my own clothes abhor me. |
32
|
For he is not a human being like I am, that I might answer him, that we might come together in judgment. |
33
|
Nor is there an arbiter between us, who might lay his hand on us both, |
34
|
who would take his rod away from me so that his terror would not make me afraid. |
35
|
Then would I speak and not fear him, but it is not so with me. |
