Job 9:14-20

14“How much less, then, can I answer him and choose my words to argue with him!

15Although I am innocent, I could not answer him; I could only plead with my judge for mercy.

16If I summoned him, and he answered me, I would not believe that he would be listening to my voice –

17he who crushes me with a tempest, and multiplies my wounds for no reason.

18He does not allow me to recover my breath, for he fills me with bitterness.

19If it is a matter of strength, most certainly he is the strong one! And if it is a matter of justice, he will say, ‘Who will summon me?’

20Although I am innocent, my mouth would condemn me; although I am blameless, it would declare me perverse.
