Context of Job 10:7
5Are Your days like those of a mortal, or Your years like those of a man, 6that You should seek my iniquity and search out my sin— though You know that I am not guilty, and there is no deliverance from Your hand? 8Your hands shaped me and altogether formed me. Would You now turn and destroy me? 9Please remember that You molded me like clay. Would You now return me to dust?
