Job 9




ylt@Job:9:1 @And Job answereth and saith: --

ylt@Job:9:2 @Truly I have known that [it is] so, And what -- is man righteous with God?

ylt@Job:9:3 @If he delight to strive with Him -- He doth not answer him one of a thousand.

ylt@Job:9:4 @Wise in heart and strong in power -- Who hath hardened toward Him and is at peace?

ylt@Job:9:5 @Who is removing mountains, And they have not known, Who hath overturned them in His anger.

ylt@Job:9:6 @Who is shaking earth from its place, And its pillars move themselves.

ylt@Job:9:7 @Who is speaking to the sun, and it riseth not, And the stars He sealeth up.

ylt@Job:9:8 @Stretching out the heavens by Himself, And treading on the heights of the sea,

ylt@Job:9:9 @Making Osh, Kesil, and Kimah, And the inner chambers of the south.

ylt@Job:9:10 @Doing great things till there is no searching, And wonderful, till there is no numbering.

ylt@Job:9:11 @Lo, He goeth over by me, and I see not, And He passeth on, and I attend not to it.

ylt@Job:9:12 @Lo, He snatches away, who bringeth it back? Who saith unto Him, 'What dost Thou?'

ylt@Job:9:13 @God doth not turn back His anger, Under Him bowed have proud helpers.

ylt@Job:9:14 @How much less do I -- I answer Him? Choose out my words with Him?

ylt@Job:9:15 @Whom, though I were righteous, I answer not, For my judgment I make supplication.

ylt@Job:9:16 @Though I had called and He answereth me, I do not believe that He giveth ear [to] my voice.

ylt@Job:9:17 @Because with a tempest He bruiseth me, And hath multiplied my wounds for nought.

ylt@Job:9:18 @He permitteth me not to refresh my spirit, But filleth me with bitter things.

ylt@Job:9:19 @If of power, lo, the Strong One; And if of judgment -- who doth convene me?

ylt@Job:9:20 @If I be righteous, Mine mouth doth declare me wicked, Perfect I am! -- it declareth me perverse.

ylt@Job:9:21 @Perfect I am! -- I know not my soul, I despise my life.

ylt@Job:9:22 @It is the same thing, therefore I said, 'The perfect and the wicked He is consuming.'

ylt@Job:9:23 @If a scourge doth put to death suddenly, At the trial of the innocent He laugheth.

ylt@Job:9:24 @Earth hath been given Into the hand of the wicked one. The face of its judges he covereth, If not -- where, who [is] he?

ylt@Job:9:25 @My days have been swifter than a runner, They have fled, they have not seen good,

ylt@Job:9:26 @They have passed on with ships of reed, As an eagle darteth on food.

ylt@Job:9:27 @Though I say, 'I forget my talking, I forsake my corner, and I brighten up!'

ylt@Job:9:28 @I have been afraid of all my griefs, I have known that Thou dost not acquit me.

ylt@Job:9:29 @I -- I am become wicked; why [is] this? [In] vain I labour.

ylt@Job:9:30 @If I have washed myself with snow-water, And purified with soap my hands,

ylt@Job:9:31 @Then in corruption Thou dost dip me, And my garments have abominated me.

ylt@Job:9:32 @But if a man like myself -- I answer him, We come together into judgment.

ylt@Job:9:33 @If there were between us an umpire, He doth place his hand on us both.

ylt@Job:9:34 @He doth turn aside from off me his rod, And His terror doth not make me afraid,

ylt@Job:9:35 @I speak, and do not fear Him, But I am not right with myself.
