Jó 9

1 Then Job answered and said,

2 I know it to be so of a truth: but how should man be just with God?with God: or, before God?

3 If he will contend with him, he cannot answer him one time out of a thousand.

4 He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength: who hath hardened himself against him, and hath prospered?

5 Who removeth the mountains, and they know not: who overturneth them in his anger.

6 Who shaketh the earth out of its place, and its pillars tremble.

7 Who commandeth the sun, and it riseth not; and sealeth up the stars.

8 Who alone spreadeth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea.waves: Heb. heights

9 Who maketh Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of the south.Arcturus…: Heb. Ash, Cesil, and Cimah

10 Who 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 to him, What doest thou?hinder…: Heb. turn him away?

13 If God will not withdraw his anger, the proud helpers do stoop under him.proud…: Heb. helpers of pride, or, strength

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 to my judge.

16 If I had called, and he had answered me; yet I would not believe that he had hearkened to my voice.

17 For he breaketh me with a tempest, and multiplieth my wounds without cause.

18 He will not allow 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, my own mouth shall condemn me: if I say, I am perfect, that also shall prove me perverse.

21 Though I were perfect, yet would I not know my soul: I would despise my life.

22 This is one thing, therefore I said it, He destroyeth the perfect and the wicked.

23 If the scourge shall slay suddenly, he will laugh at the trial of the innocent.

24 The earth is given into the hand of the wicked: he covereth the faces of its judges; if not, where, and who is he?

25 Now my days are swifter than 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.swift…: or, ships of Ebeh: Heb. ships of desire

27 If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will put 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 am wicked, why then do I labour 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 my own clothes shall abhor me.abhor…: or, make me to be abhorred

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 mediator between us, that might lay his hand upon us both.any…: Heb. one that should arguedaysman: or, umpire

34 Let him take away his rod from me, and let not his fear terrify me:

35 Then would I speak, and not fear him; but it is not so with me.it is…: Heb. I am not so with myself
