9:13. God, whose wrath no man can resist, and under whom they stoop that bear up the world. 9:14. What am I then, that I should answer him, and have words with him? 9:15. I, who although I should have any just thing, would not answer, but would make supplication to my judge. 9:16. And if he should hear me when I call, I should not believe that he had heard my voice. 9:17. For he shall crush me in a whirlwind, and multiply my wounds even without cause. Without cause... That is, without my knowing the cause: or without any crime of mine. 9:18. He alloweth not my spirit to rest, and he filleth me with bitterness. 9:19. If strength be demanded, he is most strong: if equity of judgment, no man dare bear witness for me. 9:20. If I would justify myself, my own mouth shall condemn me: if I would shew myself innocent, he shall prove me wicked. 9:21. Although I should be simple, even this my soul shall be ignorant of, and I shall be weary of my life. 9:22. One thing there is that I have spoken, both the innocent and the wicked he consumeth. 9:23. If he scourge, let him kill at once, and not laugh at the pains of the innocent. 9:24. The earth is given into the hand of the wicked, he covereth the face of the judges thereof: and if it be not he, who is it then? 9:25. My days have been swifter than a post: they have fled away and have not seen good. 9:26. They have passed by as ships carrying fruits, as an eagle flying to the prey. 9:27. If I say: I will not speak so: I change my face, and am tormented with sorrow. 9:28. I feared all my works, knowing that thou didst not spare the offender. 9:29. But if so also I am wicked, why have I laboured in vain? 9:30. If I be washed, as it were, with snow waters, and my hands shall shine ever 80. clean: 9:31. Yet thou shalt plunge me in filth, and my garments shall abhor me. 9:32. For I shall not answer a man that is like myself: nor one that may be heard with me equally in judgment. 9:33. There is none that may be able to reprove both, and to put his hand between both. 9:34. Let him take his rod away from me, and let not his fear terrify me. 9:35. I will speak, and will not fear him: for I cannot answer while I am in fear. Job Chapter 10 10:1. My soul is weary of my life, I will let go my speech against myself, I will speak in the bitterness of my soul. 10:2. I will say to God: Do not condemn me: tell me why thou judgest me so? 10:3. Doth it seem good to thee that thou shouldst calumniate me, and oppress me, the work of thy own hands, and help the counsel of the wicked? 10:4. Hast thou eyes of flesh: or, shalt thou see as man seeth? 10:5. Are thy days as the days of man, and are thy years as the times of men: 10:6. That thou shouldst inquire after my iniquity, and search after my sin? 10:7. And shouldst know that I have done no wicked thing, whereas there is no man that can deliver out of thy hand?
