ukjv - Job:9-10

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

ukjv@Job:9:2 @ I know it is so truthfully: but how should man be just with God?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

ukjv@Job:9:16 @ If I had called, and he had answered me; yet would I not believe that he had hearkened unto my voice.

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

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

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

ukjv@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.

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

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

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

ukjv@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?

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

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

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

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

ukjv@Job:9:29 @ If I be wicked, why then labour I in vain?

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

ukjv@Job:9:31 @ Yet shall you plunge me in the ditch, and mine own clothes shall detest me.

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

ukjv@Job:9:33 @ Neither is there any arbitrator between us, that might lay his hand upon us both.

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

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

ukjv@Job:10:1 @ My soul is weary of my life; I will leave my complaint upon myself; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.

ukjv@Job:10:2 @ I will say unto God, Do not condemn me; show me wherefore you contend with me.

ukjv@Job:10:3 @ Is it good unto you that you should oppress, that you should despise the work of yours hands, and shine upon the counsel of the wicked?

ukjv@Job:10:4 @ Have you eyes of flesh? or see you as man sees?

ukjv@Job:10:5 @ Are your days as the days of man? are your years as man's days,

ukjv@Job:10:6 @ That you enquire after mine iniquity, and search after my sin?

ukjv@Job:10:7 @ You know that I am not wicked; and there is none that can deliver out of yours hand.

ukjv@Job:10:8 @ Yours hands have made me and fashioned me together round about; yet you do destroy me.

ukjv@Job:10:9 @ Remember, I plead to you, that you have made me as the clay; and will you bring me into dust again?

ukjv@Job:10:10 @ Have you not poured me out as milk, and curdled me like cheese?

ukjv@Job:10:11 @ You have clothed me with skin and flesh, and have fenced me with bones and sinews.

ukjv@Job:10:12 @ You have granted me life and favour, and your visitation has preserved my spirit.

ukjv@Job:10:13 @ And these things have you hid in yours heart: I know that this is with you.

ukjv@Job:10:14 @ If I sin, then you mark me, and you will not acquit me from mine iniquity.

ukjv@Job:10:15 @ If I be wicked, woe unto me; and if I be righteous, yet will I not lift up my head. I am full of confusion; therefore see you mine affliction;

ukjv@Job:10:16 @ For it increases. You hunt me as a fierce lion: and again you show yourself marvellous upon me.

ukjv@Job:10:17 @ You renew your witnesses against me, and increase yours indignation upon me; changes and war are against me.

ukjv@Job:10:18 @ Wherefore then have you brought me forth out of the womb? Oh that I had given up the spirit, and no eye had seen me!

ukjv@Job:10:19 @ I should have been as though I had not been; I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.

ukjv@Job:10:20 @ Are not my days few? cease then, and let me alone, that I may take comfort a little,

ukjv@Job:10:21 @ Before I go whence I shall not return, even to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;

ukjv@Job:10:22 @ A land of darkness, as darkness itself; and of the shadow of death, without any order, and where the light is as darkness.

ukjv@Job:11:1 @ Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said,
