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