Job 9:16-20

16If I called and He answered me, I could not believe that He was listening to my voice.17For He 1bruises me with a storm And multiplies my wounds without cause.18He will 2not allow me to get my breath, But He saturates me with 3bitterness.19If it is a matter of power, 4behold, He is the strong one! And if it is a matter of justice, who can summon 5Him?20 6Though I am righteous, my mouth will 7condemn me; Though I am guiltless, He will declare me guilty.
