1 And Job answereth and saith: — YLT — Job 9:1
2 Truly I have known that [it is] so, And what — is man righteous with God? YLT — Job 9:2
3 If he delight to strive with Him — He doth not answer him one of a thousand. YLT — Job 9:3
4 Wise in heart and strong in power — Who hath hardened toward Him and is at peace? YLT — Job 9:4
5 Who is removing mountains, And they have not known, Who hath overturned them in His anger. YLT — Job 9:5
6 Who is shaking earth from its place, And its pillars move themselves. YLT — Job 9:6
7 Who is speaking to the sun, and it riseth not, And the stars He sealeth up. YLT — Job 9:7
8 Stretching out the heavens by Himself, And treading on the heights of the sea, YLT — Job 9:8
9 Making Osh, Kesil, and Kimah, And the inner chambers of the south. YLT — Job 9:9
10 Doing great things till there is no searching, And wonderful, till there is no numbering. YLT — Job 9:10
11 Lo, He goeth over by me, and I see not, And He passeth on, and I attend not to it. YLT — Job 9:11
12 Lo, He snatches away, who bringeth it back? Who saith unto Him, ‘What dost Thou?’ YLT — Job 9:12
13 God doth not turn back His anger, Under Him bowed have proud helpers. YLT — Job 9:13
14 How much less do I — I answer Him? Choose out my words with Him? YLT — Job 9:14
15 Whom, though I were righteous, I answer not, For my judgment I make supplication. YLT — Job 9:15
16 Though I had called and He answereth me, I do not believe that He giveth ear [to] my voice. YLT — Job 9:16
17 Because with a tempest He bruiseth me, And hath multiplied my wounds for nought. YLT — Job 9:17
18 He permitteth me not to refresh my spirit, But filleth me with bitter things. YLT — Job 9:18
19 If of power, lo, the Strong One; And if of judgment — who doth convene me? YLT — Job 9:19
20 If I be righteous, Mine mouth doth declare me wicked, Perfect I am! — it declareth me perverse. YLT — Job 9:20
21 Perfect I am! — I know not my soul, I despise my life. YLT — Job 9:21
22 It is the same thing, therefore I said, ‘The perfect and the wicked He is consuming.’ YLT — Job 9:22
23 If a scourge doth put to death suddenly, At the trial of the innocent He laugheth. YLT — Job 9:23
24 Earth hath been given Into the hand of the wicked one. The face of its judges he covereth, If not — where, who [is] he? YLT — Job 9:24
25 My days have been swifter than a runner, They have fled, they have not seen good, YLT — Job 9:25
26 They have passed on with ships of reed, As an eagle darteth on food. YLT — Job 9:26
27 Though I say, ‘I forget my talking, I forsake my corner, and I brighten up!’ YLT — Job 9:27
28 I have been afraid of all my griefs, I have known that Thou dost not acquit me. YLT — Job 9:28
29 I — I am become wicked; why [is] this? [In] vain I labour. YLT — Job 9:29
30 If I have washed myself with snow-water, And purified with soap my hands, YLT — Job 9:30
31 Then in corruption Thou dost dip me, And my garments have abominated me. YLT — Job 9:31
32 But if a man like myself — I answer him, We come together into judgment. YLT — Job 9:32
33 If there were between us an umpire, He doth place his hand on us both. YLT — Job 9:33
34 He doth turn aside from off me his rod, And His terror doth not make me afraid, YLT — Job 9:34
35 I speak, and do not fear Him, But I am not right with myself. YLT — Job 9:35
