| Job 9:1 |
|
Then Job answered and said, |
|
|
|
|
| Job 9:2 |
|
Of a truth I know that it is so: But how can
man be just with God? |
| |
|
|
| Job 9:3 |
|
If he be pleased to contend with him, He cannot
answer him one of a thousand. |
| |
|
|
| Job 9:4 |
|
He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength:
Who hath hardened himself against him, and prospered?- |
| |
|
|
| Job 9:5 |
|
Him that removeth the mountains, and they know
it not, When he overturneth them in his anger; |
| |
|
|
| Job 9:6 |
|
That shaketh the earth out of its place, And
the pillars thereof tremble; |
| |
|
|
| Job 9:7 |
|
That commandeth the sun, and it riseth not,
And sealeth up the stars; |
|
|
|
| Job 9:8 |
|
That alone stretcheth out the heavens, And treadeth
upon the waves of the sea; |
|
|
|
| Job 9:9 |
|
That maketh the Bear, Orion, and the Pleiades,
And the chambers of the south; |
|
|
|
| Job 9:10 |
|
That doeth great things past finding out, Yea,
marvellous things without number. |
|
|
|
| Job 9:11 |
|
Lo, he goeth by me, and I see him not: He passeth
on also, but I perceive him not. |
|
|
|
| Job 9:12 |
|
Behold, he seizeth the prey, who can hinder
him? Who will say unto him, What doest thou? |
|
|
|
| Job 9:13 |
|
God will not withdraw his anger; The helpers
of Rahab do stoop under him. |
|
|
|
| Job 9:14 |
|
How much less shall I answer him, And choose
out my words to reason with him? |
|
|
|
| Job 9:15 |
|
Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not
answer; I would make supplication to my judge. |
|
|
|
| Job 9:16 |
|
If I had called, and he had answered me, Yet
would I not believe that he hearkened unto my voice. |
|
|
|
| Job 9:17 |
|
For he breaketh me with a tempest, And multiplieth
my wounds without cause. |
|
|
|
| Job 9:18 |
|
He will not suffer me to take my breath, But
filleth me with bitterness. |
|
|
|
| Job 9:19 |
|
If we speak of strength, lo, he is mighty! And
if of justice, Who, saith he, will summon me? |
| |
|
|
| Job 9:20 |
|
Though I be righteous, mine own mouth shall
condemn me: Though I be perfect, it shall prove me perverse. |
| |
|
|
| Job 9:21 |
|
I am perfect; I regard not myself; I despise
my life. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 9:22 |
|
It is all one; therefore I say, He destroyeth
the perfect and the wicked. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 9:23 |
|
If the scourge slay suddenly, He will mock at
the trial of the innocent. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 9:24 |
|
The earth is given into the hand of the wicked;
He covereth the faces of the judges thereof: If it be not he, who then is it?
|
|
|
|
|
| Job 9:25 |
|
Now my days are swifter than a post: They flee
away, they see no good, |
|
|
|
|
| Job 9:26 |
|
They are passed away as the swift ships; As
the eagle that swoopeth on the prey. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 9:27 |
|
If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will
put off my sad countenance, and be of good cheer; |
|
|
|
|
| Job 9:28 |
|
I am afraid of all my sorrows, I know that thou
wilt not hold me innocent. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 9:29 |
|
I shall be condemned; Why then do I labor in
vain? |
|
|
|
|
| Job 9:30 |
|
If I wash myself with snow water, And make my
hands never so clean; |
|
|
|
|
| Job 9:31 |
|
Yet wilt thou plunge me in the ditch, And mine
own clothes shall abhor me. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 9:32 |
|
For he is not a man, as I am, that I should
answer him, That we should come together in judgment. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 9:33 |
|
There is no umpire betwixt us, That might lay
his hand upon us both. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 9:34 |
|
Let him take his rod away from me, And let not
his terror make me afraid: |
|
|
|
|
| Job 9:35 |
|
Then would I speak, and not fear him; For I
am not so in myself. |
