Job 9:16-23

16If I called and He answered me, I would not believe that He was listening to my voice.

17For He crushes me with a tempest, And multiplies my wounds without cause.

18He will not allow me to catch my breath, But fills me with bitterness.

19If it is a matter of strength, indeed He is strong; And if of justice, who will appoint my day in court?

20Though I were righteous, my own mouth would condemn me; Though I were blameless, it would prove me perverse.

21“I am blameless, yet I do not know myself; I despise my life.

22It is all one thing; Therefore I say, ‘He destroys the blameless and the wicked.’

23If the scourge slays suddenly, He laughs at the plight of the innocent.
