Job 9:14-20

14“So who am I, that I should try to answer God or even reason with him?

15Even if I were right, I would have no defense. I could only plead for mercy.

16And even if I summoned him and he responded, I’m not sure he would listen to me.

17For he attacks me with a storm and repeatedly wounds me without cause.

18He will not let me catch my breath, but fills me instead with bitter sorrows.

19If it’s a question of strength, he’s the strong one. If it’s a matter of justice, who dares to summon him to court?

20Though I am innocent, my own mouth would pronounce me guilty. Though I am blameless, it would prove me wicked.
