Job 9:16-23
16IfH518 I calledH7121 and He answeredH6030 me, I could not believeH539 that He was listeningH238 to my voiceH6963.17For He 1bruisesH7779 me with a tempestH8183 And multipliesH7235 my woundsH6482 withoutH2600 causeH2600.18He will 2not allowH5414 me to getH7725 my breathH7307, But saturatesH7646 me with 3bitternessH4472.19IfH518 it is a matter of powerH3581, 4beholdH2009, He is the strongH533 oneH533! And ifH518 it is a matter of justiceH4941, whoH4310 can summonH3259 5Him?206ThoughH518 I am righteousH6663, my mouthH6310 will 7condemnH7561 me; Though I am guiltlessH8535, He will declareH6140 me guiltyH6140.21I am 8guiltlessH8535; I do not takeH3045 noticeH3045 of myselfH5315; I 9despiseH3988 my lifeH2425.22It is all oneH259; thereforeH5921H3651 I sayH559, ‘He 10destroysH3615 the guiltlessH8535 and the wickedH7563.’23IfH518 the scourgeH7752 killsH4191 suddenlyH6597, He 11mocksH3932 the despairH4531 of the innocentH5355.
