Job 9:11-15

11If He were to pass by me, 1I would not see Him; Were He to move past me, I would not perceive Him.12If He were to snatch away, who could 2restrain Him? Who could say to Him, ‘3What are You doing?’

13“God will not turn back His anger; Beneath Him the helpers of 45Rahab cower.14How then can 6I 7answer Him, And choose my words 8before Him?15For 9though I were right, I could not 10answer; I would have to 11implore the mercy of my Judge.
