Job 9:14-20

14HowH637 thenH637H3588 can 1I 2answerH6030 Him, And chooseH977 my wordsH1697 3beforeH5973 Him?15For 4thoughH518 I wereH6663 rightH6663, I could not 5answerH6030; I would have to 6imploreH2603 the mercyH2603 of my JudgeH8199.16IfH518 I calledH7121 and He answeredH6030 me, I could not believeH539 that He was listeningH238 to my voiceH6963.17For He 7bruisesH7779 me with a stormH8183 And multipliesH7235 my woundsH6482 withoutH2600 causeH2600.18He will 8not allowH5414 me to getH7725 my breathH7307, But He saturatesH7646 me with 9bitternessH4472.19IfH518 it is a matter of powerH3581, 10beholdH2009, He is the strongH533 oneH533! And ifH518 it is a matter of justiceH4941, whoH4310 can summonH3259 11Him?2012ThoughH518 I amH6663 righteousH6663, my mouthH6310 will 13condemnH7561 me; Though I am guiltlessH8535, He will declareH6140 me guiltyH6140.
