Job 9:14-20
14How then can 1I 2answer Him, And choose my words 3before Him?15For 4though I were right, I could not 5answer; I would have to 6implore the mercy of my Judge.16If I called and He answered me, I could not believe that He was listening to my voice.17For He 7bruises me with a storm And multiplies my wounds without cause.18He will 8not allow me to get my breath, But He saturates me with 9bitterness.19If it is a matter of power, 10behold, He is the strong one! And if it is a matter of justice, who can summon 11Him?2012Though I am righteous, my mouth will 13condemn me; Though I am guiltless, He will declare me guilty.
