Job - ch 9 v 1 - 20
- And Job answered, and said:
- Indeed I know it is so, and that man cannot be justified compared with
- If he will contend with him, he cannot answer him one for a thousand.
- He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength: who hath resisted him, and hath had peace ?
- Who hath removed mountains, and they whom he overthrew in his wrath, knew it not.
- Who shaketh the earth out of her place, and the pillars thereof tremble.
- Who commandeth tile sun and it riseth not: and shutteth up the stars as it were under a seal:
- Who alone spreadeth out the heavens, and walketh upon the waves of the sea.
- Who maketh Arcturus, and Orion, and Hyades, and the inner parts of the south.
- Who doth things great and incomprehensible, and wonderful, of which there is no number.
- If he come to me, I shall not see him: if he depart I shall not understand.
- If he examine on a sudden, who shall answer him? or who can say: Why dost thou so?
- God, whose wrath no mall can resist, and under whom they stoop that bear up the world.
- What am I then, that I should answer him, and have words with him?
- I, who although I should have any just thing, would not answer, but would make supplication to my judge.
- And if he should hear me when I call, I should not believe that he had heard my voice.
- For he shall crush me in a whirlwind, and multiply my wounds even without cause.
- He alloweth not my spirit to rest, and he filleth me with bitterness.
- If strength be demanded, he is most strong: if equity of judgment, no man dare bear witness for me.
- If I would justify myself, my own mouth shall condemn me: if I would shew myself innocent, he shall prove me wicked.
