Job 9:14-20

14How then can aI 1answer Him,And choose my words 2before Him?15For athough I were right, I could not 1answer;I would have to bplead for the grace of my judge.16If I called and He answered me,I could not believe that He was giving ear to my voice.17For He abruises me with a tempestAnd multiplies my wounds without cause.18He will anot allow me to get my breath,But saturates me with bbitterness.19If it is a matter of power, abehold, He is the mighty one!And if it is a matter of justice, who can make 1Him testify?20aThough I am righteous, my mouth will bcondemn me;Though I am blameless, He will declare me perverse.
