Job 9




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

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

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

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

kjv@Job:9:5 @ Which removeth the mountains, and they know not: which overturneth them in his anger.

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

kjv@Job:9:7 @ Which commandeth the sun, and it riseth not; and sealeth up the stars.

kjv@Job:9:8 @ Which alone spreadeth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea.

kjv@Job:9:9 @ Which maketh Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of the south.

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

kjv@Job:9:11 @ Lo, he goeth by me, and I see him not: he passeth on also, but I perceive him not.

kjv@Job:9:12 @ Behold, he taketh away, who can hinder him? who will say unto him, What doest thou?

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

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

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

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

kjv@Job:9:17 @ For he breaketh me with a tempest, and multiplieth my wounds without cause.

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

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

kjv@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.

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

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

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

kjv@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?

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

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

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

kjv@Job:9:28 @ I am afraid of all my sorrows, I know that thou wilt not hold me innocent.

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

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

kjv@Job:9:31 @ Yet shalt thou plunge me in the ditch, and mine own clothes shall abhor me.

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

kjv@Job:9:33 @ Neither is there any daysman betwixt us, that might lay his hand upon us both.

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

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