Job 9




akjv@Job:9:1 @ Then Job answered and said,

akjv@Job:9:2 @ I know it is so of a truth: but how should man be just with God?

akjv@Job:9:3 @ If he will contend with him, he cannot answer him one of a thousand.

akjv@Job:9:4 @ He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength: who has hardened himself against him, and has prospered?

akjv@Job:9:5 @ Which removes the mountains, and they know not: which overturns them in his anger.

akjv@Job:9:6 @ Which shakes the earth out of her place, and the pillars thereof tremble.

akjv@Job:9:7 @ Which commands the sun, and it rises not; and seals up the stars.

akjv@Job:9:8 @ Which alone spreads out the heavens, and treads on the waves of the sea.

akjv@Job:9:9 @ Which makes Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of the south.

akjv@Job:9:10 @ Which does great things past finding out; yes, and wonders without number.

akjv@Job:9:11 @ See, he goes by me, and I see him not: he passes on also, but I perceive him not.

akjv@Job:9:12 @ Behold, he takes away, who can hinder him? who will say to him, What do you?

akjv@Job:9:13 @ If God will not withdraw his anger, the proud helpers do stoop under him.

akjv@Job:9:14 @ How much less shall I answer him, and choose out my words to reason with him?

akjv@Job:9:15 @ Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answer, but I would make supplication to my judge.

akjv@Job:9:16 @ If I had called, and he had answered me; yet would I not believe that he had listened to my voice.

akjv@Job:9:17 @ For he breaks me with a tempest, and multiplies my wounds without cause.

akjv@Job:9:18 @ He will not suffer me to take my breath, but fills me with bitterness.

akjv@Job:9:19 @ If I speak of strength, see, he is strong: and if of judgment, who shall set me a time to plead?

akjv@Job:9:20 @ If I justify myself, my own mouth shall condemn me: if I say, I am perfect, it shall also prove me perverse.

akjv@Job:9:21 @ Though I were perfect, yet would I not know my soul: I would despise my life.

akjv@Job:9:22 @ This is one thing, therefore I said it, He destroys the perfect and the wicked.

akjv@Job:9:23 @ If the whip slay suddenly, he will laugh at the trial of the innocent.

akjv@Job:9:24 @ The earth is given into the hand of the wicked: he covers the faces of the judges thereof; if not, where, and who is he?

akjv@Job:9:25 @ Now my days are swifter than a post: they flee away, they see no good.

akjv@Job:9:26 @ They are passed away as the swift ships: as the eagle that hastens to the prey.

akjv@Job:9:27 @ If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will leave off my heaviness, and comfort myself:

akjv@Job:9:28 @ I am afraid of all my sorrows, I know that you will not hold me innocent.

akjv@Job:9:29 @ If I be wicked, why then labor I in vain?

akjv@Job:9:30 @ If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands never so clean;

akjv@Job:9:31 @ Yet shall you plunge me in the ditch, and my own clothes shall abhor me.

akjv@Job:9:32 @ For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, and we should come together in judgment.

akjv@Job:9:33 @ Neither is there any judge between us, that might lay his hand on us both.

akjv@Job:9:34 @ Let him take his rod away from me, and let not his fear terrify me:

akjv@Job:9:35 @ Then would I speak, and not fear him; but it is not so with me.
