Job 9:16-35

If I had called
<07121> (8804)_,

and he had answered
<06030> (8799)

me; [yet] would I not believe
<0539> (8686)

that he had hearkened
<0238> (8686)

unto my voice
<06963>_.

For he breaketh
<07779> (8799)

me with a tempest
<08183>_,

and multiplieth
<07235> (8689)

my wounds
<06482>

without cause
<02600>_.

He will not suffer
<05414> (8799)

me to take
<07725> (8687)

my breath
<07307>_,

but filleth
<07646> (8686)

me with bitterness
<04472>_.

If [I speak] of strength
<03581>_,

lo, [he is] strong
<0533>_:

and if of judgment
<04941>_,

who shall set
<03259> (8686)

me a time [to plead]?

If I justify
<06663> (8799)

myself, mine own mouth
<06310>

shall condemn
<07561> (8686)

me: [if I say], I [am] perfect
<08535>_,

it shall also prove me perverse
<06140> (8799)_.

[Though] I [were] perfect
<08535>_,

[yet] would I not know
<03045> (8799)

my soul
<05315>_:

I would despise
<03988> (8799)

my life
<02416>_.

This [is] one
<0259>

[thing], therefore I said
<0559> (8804)

[it], He destroyeth
<03615> (8764)

the perfect
<08535>

and the wicked
<07563>_.

If the scourge
<07752>

slay
<04191> (8686)

suddenly
<06597>_,

he will laugh
<03932> (8799)

at the trial
<04531>

of the innocent
<05355>_.

The earth
<0776>

is given
<05414> (8738)

into the hand
<03027>

of the wicked
<07563>_:

he covereth
<03680> (8762)

the faces
<06440>

of the judges
<08199> (8802)

thereof; if not, where
<0645>_,

[and] who [is] he?

Now my days
<03117>

are swifter
<07043> (8804)

than a post
<07323> (8801)_:

they flee away
<01272> (8804)_,

they see
<07200> (8804)

no good
<02896>_.

They are passed away
<02498> (8804)

as
<05973>

the swift
<016>

ships
<0591>_:

as the eagle
<05404>

[that] hasteth
<02907> (8799)

to the prey
<0400>_.

{swift...: or, ships of Ebeh: Heb. ships of desire}

If I say
<0559> (8800)_,

I will forget
<07911> (8799)

my complaint
<07879>_,

I will leave off
<05800> (8799)

my heaviness
<06440>_,

and comfort
<01082> (8686)

[myself]:

I am afraid
<03025> (8804)

of all my sorrows
<06094>_,

I know
<03045> (8804)

that thou wilt not hold me innocent
<05352> (8762)_.

[If] I be wicked
<07561> (8799)_,

why then labour
<03021> (8799)

I in vain
<01892>_?

If I wash
<07364> (8694)

myself with
<07950>

snow water
<04325> <01119>_,

and make my hands
<03709>

never
<01252> (8676) <01253>

so clean
<02141> (8689)_;

Yet
<0227>

shalt thou plunge
<02881> (8799)

me in the ditch
<07845>_,

and mine own clothes
<08008>

shall abhor
<08581> (8765)

me. {abhor...: or, make me to be abhorred}

For [he is] not a man
<0376>_,

as I [am, that] I should answer
<06030> (8799)

him, [and] we should come
<0935> (8799)

together
<03162>

in judgment
<04941>_.

Neither is
<03426>

there any daysman
<03198> (8688)

betwixt us, [that] might lay
<07896> (8799)

his hand
<03027>

upon us both
<08147>_.

{any...: Heb. one that should argue} {daysman: or, umpire}

Let him take
<05493> (0)

his rod
<07626>

away
<05493> (8686)

from me, and let not his fear
<0367>

terrify
<01204> (8762)

me:

[Then] would I speak
<01696> (8762)_,

and not fear
<03372> (8799)

him; but [it is] not so with me. {it is...: Heb. I am not so with myself}
