V.1 Then Job 347 answered 6030-4 and said, 559-4

9:2 I know 3045-1 [it is] so of a truth: 551 but how should man 582 be just 6663-4 with God? 410

9:3 If he will 2654-4 contend 7378-2 with him, he cannot answer 6030-4 him one 259 of a thousand. 505

9:4 [He is] wise 2450 in heart, 3824 and mighty 533 in strength: 3581 who hath hardened 7185-52 [himself] against him, and hath prospered? 7999-4

9:5 Which removeth 6275-56 the mountains, 2022 and they know 3045-1 not: which overturneth 2015-1 them in his anger. 639

9:6 Which shaketh 7264-56 the earth 776 out of her place, 4725 and the pillars 5982 thereof tremble. 6426-101

9:7 Which commandeth 559-6 the sun, 2775 and it riseth 2224-4 not; and sealeth up 2856-4 the stars. 3556

9:8 Which alone spreadeth out 5186-6 the heavens, 8064 and treadeth 1869-6 upon the waves 1116 of the sea. 3220

9:9 Which maketh 6213-6 Arcturus, 5906 Orion, 3685 and Pleiades, 3598 and the chambers 2315 of the south. 8486

9:10 Which doeth 6213-6 great 1419 things past 369 finding out; 2714 yea, and wonders 6381-12 without number. 4557

9:11 Lo, he goeth 5674-4 by me, and I see 7200-4 [him] not: he passeth on 2498-4 also, but I perceive 995-4 him not.

9:12 Behold, he taketh away, 2862-4 who can hinder 7725-55 him? who will say 559-4 unto him, What doest 6213-4 thou?

9:13 [If] God 433 will not withdraw 7725-55 his anger, 639 the proud 7293 helpers 5826-6 do stoop 7817-1 under him.

9:14 How much less shall I answer 6030-4 him, [and] choose 977-4 out my words 1697 [to reason] with him?

9:15 Whom, though I were righteous, 6663-1 [yet] would I not answer, 6030-4 [but] I would make supplication 2603-101 to my judge. 8199-26

9:16 If I had called, 7121-1 and he had answered 6030-4 me; [yet] would I not believe 539-55 that he had hearkened 238-55 unto my voice. 6963

9:17 For he breaketh 7779-4 me with a tempest, 8183 and multiplieth 7235-52 my wounds 6482 without cause. 2600

9:18 He will not suffer 5414-4 me to take 7725-53 my breath, 7307 but filleth 7646-55 me with bitterness. 4472

9:19 If [I speak] of strength, 3581 lo, [he is] strong: 533 and if of judgment, 4941 who shall set me a time 3259-55 [to plead]?

9:20 If I justify 6663-4 myself, mine own mouth 6310 shall condemn 7561-55 me: [if I say], I [am] perfect, 8535 it shall also prove me perverse. 6140-4

9:21 [Though] I [were] perfect, 8535 [yet] would I not know 3045-4 my soul: 5315 I would despise 3988-4 my life. 2416

9:22 This [is] one 259 [thing], therefore I said 559-1 [it], He destroyeth 3615-18 the perfect 8535 and the wicked. 7563

9:23 If the scourge 7752 slay 4191-55 suddenly, 6597 he will laugh 3932-4 at the trial 4531 of the innocent. 5355

9:24 The earth 776 is given 5414-8 into the hand 3027 of the wicked: 7563 he covereth 3680-17 the faces 6440 of the judges 8199-6 thereof; if not, where, 645 [and] who [is] he?

9:25 Now my days 3117 are swifter 7043-1 than a post: 7323-5 they flee away, 1272-1 they see 7200-1 no good. 2896

9:26 They are passed away 2498-1 as 5973 the swift 16|15 ships: 591 as the eagle 5404 [that] hasteth 2907-4 to the prey. 400

9:27 If I say, 559-2 I will forget 7911-4 my complaint, 7879 I will leave off 5800-4 my heaviness, 6440 and comfort 1082- 55 [myself]:

9:28 I am afraid 3025-1 of all my sorrows, 6094 I know 3045-1 that thou wilt not hold me innocent. 5352-17

9:29 [If] I be wicked, 7561-4 why then labour 3021-4 I in vain? 1892

9:30 If I wash 7364-98 myself with 1119 snow 7950 water, 4325|1119-k and make my hands 3709 never 1253 so clean; 2141- 52

9:31 Yet 227 shalt thou plunge 2881-4 me in the ditch, 7845 and mine own clothes 8008 shall abhor 8581-14 me.

9:32 For [he is] not a man, 376 as I [am, that] I should answer 6030-4 him, [and] we should come 935-4 together 3162 in judgment. 4941

9:33 Neither is 3426 there any daysman 3198-56 betwixt us, [that] might lay 7896-4 his hand 3027 upon us both. 8147

9:34 Let him take his rod 7626 away 5493-55 from me, and let not his fear 367 terrify 1204-17 me:
