Job 9:16-23

16IfH518 I had calledH7121, and he had answeredH6030 meH6963; yet would I notH3808 believeH539 that he hearkened unto my voiceH6963.

17For he breaketh meH2600 with a tempestH8183, and multiplieth my woundsH6482 withoutH2600 causeH2600.

18He will notH3808 suffer meH5414 to takeH7725 my breathH7307, but filleth meH5414 with bitternessH4472.

19IfH518 weH518 speak of the strengthH3581 of the mightyH533, loH2009, he is there! and ifH518 of judgmentH4941, who will appoint meH3259 a time?

20ThoughH518 I be righteousH6663, mine own mouthH6310 shall condemnH7561 meH589: thoughH518 I be perfectH8535, it shall prove meH589 perverse.

21I am perfectH8535; I regardH3045 notH3808 myselfH589; I despiseH3988 my lifeH5315.

22It is allH259 one; therefore I sayH559, He destroyeth the perfectH8535 and the wickedH7563.

23IfH518 the scourgeH7752 slayH4191 suddenlyH6597, he will mockH3932 at the trial of the innocentH5355.
