Job 9
Then
Job
answered
and
said,
2 I
know
it
is
so
of
a
truth:
but
how
should
man
be
just
a
with
God?
3 If
he
will
a
contend
with
him,
he
cannot
answer
him
b
one
of
a
thousand.
4 He
is
wise
in
heart,
and
mighty
in
strength:
who
hath
a
hardened
himself
against
him,
and
hath
prospered?
5
a
Which
removeth
the
mountains,
and
they
know
not:
which
overturneth
them
in
his
anger.
6 Which
shaketh
the
earth
out
of
her
place,
and
the
pillars
thereof
tremble.
7 Which
commandeth
the
sun,
and
it
riseth
not;
and
a
sealeth
up
the
stars.
8 Which
alone
a
spreadeth
out
the
heavens,
and
treadeth
upon
the
waves
of
the
sea.
9 Which
maketh
Arcturus,
a
Orion,
and
Pleiades,
and
the
chambers
of
the
south.
10 Which
doeth
great
things
past
finding
out;
yea,
and
wonders
without
number.
11 Lo,
he
goeth
by
me,
and
I
see
him
not:
he
passeth
on
also,
but
I
perceive
him
not.
12 Behold,
he
taketh
away,
who
can
hinder
him?
who
will
say
unto
him,
What
a
doest
thou?
13 If
God
will
not
withdraw
his
anger,
the
proud
helpers
do
stoop
under
him.
14 How
much
less
shall
I
answer
him,
and
choose
out
my
words
to
reason
with
him?
15 Whom,
though
I
were
righteous,
yet
would
I
not
answer,
but
I
would
make
supplication
a
to
my
judge.
16 If
I
had
called,
and
he
had
answered
me;
yet
would
I
not
believe
that
he
had
hearkened
unto
my
voice.
17 For
he
breaketh
me
with
a
tempest,
and
multiplieth
my
wounds
without
cause.
18 He
will
not
suffer
me
to
take
my
breath,
but
filleth
me
with
bitterness.
19 If
I
speak
of
strength,
lo,
he
is
strong:
and
if
of
judgment,
who
shall
set
me
a
time
to
plead?
20 If
I
justify
myself,
mine
own
mouth
shall
condemn
me:
if
I
say,
I
am
perfect,
it
shall
also
prove
me
perverse.
21 Though
I
were
perfect,
a
yet
would
I
not
know
my
soul:
I
would
despise
my
life.
22 This
is
one
thing,
therefore
I
said
it,
He
a
destroyeth
the
perfect
and
the
wicked.
23 If
the
scourge
slay
suddenly,
he
will
a
laugh
at
the
trial
of
the
innocent.
24 The
earth
is
given
into
the
hand
of
the
wicked:
he
covereth
the
faces
of
the
judges
thereof;
if
not,
where,
and
who
is
he?
25 Now
my
days
are
swifter
than
a
a
post:
they
flee
away,
they
see
no
good.
26 They
are
passed
away
as
the
swift
ships:
as
the
eagle
that
hasteth
to
the
prey.
27 If
I
say,
I
will
forget
my
complaint,
I
will
leave
off
my
heaviness,
and
comfort
myself:
28 I
am
afraid
of
all
my
sorrows,
I
know
that
thou
wilt
not
hold
me
innocent.
29 If
I
be
wicked,
why
then
labour
I
in
vain?
30 If
I
wash
myself
with
snow
water,
and
make
my
hands
never
so
clean;
31 Yet
shalt
thou
plunge
me
in
the
ditch,
and
mine
own
clothes
shall
abhor
me.
32 For
he
is
not
a
man,
as
I
am,
that
I
should
answer
him,
and
we
should
come
together
in
judgment.
33 Neither
is
there
any
a
daysman
betwixt
us,
that
might
lay
his
hand
upon
us
both.
34 Let
him
take
his
rod
away
from
me,
and
let
not
a
his
fear
terrify
me:
35 Then
would
I
speak,
and
not
fear
him;
but
it
is
not
so
with
me.
