Job 9 RV1885 — Job 9

1 Then Job answered and said, RV1885 — Job 9:1

2 Of a truth I know that it is so: but how can man be just with God? RV1885 — Job 9:2

3 If he be pleased to contend with him, he cannot answer him one of a thousand. RV1885 — Job 9:3

4 He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength: who hath hardened himself against him, and prospered? RV1885 — Job 9:4

5 Which removeth the mountains, and they know it not, when he overturneth them in his anger. RV1885 — Job 9:5

6 Which shaketh the earth out of her place, and the pillars thereof tremble. RV1885 — Job 9:6

7 Which commandeth the sun, and it riseth not; and sealeth up the stars. RV1885 — Job 9:7

8 Which alone stretcheth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea. RV1885 — Job 9:8

9 Which maketh the Bear, Orion, and the Pleiades, and the chambers of the south. RV1885 — Job 9:9

10 Which doeth great things past finding out; yea, marvelous things without number. RV1885 — Job 9:10

11 Lo, he goeth by me, and I see him not: he passeth on also, but I perceive him not. RV1885 — Job 9:11

12 Behold, he seizeth the prey, who can hinder him? who will say unto him, What doest thou? RV1885 — Job 9:12

13 God will not withdraw his anger; the helpers of Rahab do stoop under him. RV1885 — Job 9:13

14 How much less shall I answer him, and choose out my words to reason with him? RV1885 — Job 9:14

15 Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answer; I would make supplication to mine adversary. RV1885 — Job 9:15

16 If I had called, and he had answered me; yet would I not believe that he hearkened unto my voice. RV1885 — Job 9:16

17 For he breaketh me with a tempest, and multiplieth my wounds without cause. RV1885 — Job 9:17

18 He will not suffer me to take my breath, but filleth me with bitterness. RV1885 — Job 9:18

19 If we speak of the strength of the mighty, lo, he is there! and if of judgment, who will appoint me a time? RV1885 — Job 9:19

20 Though I be righteous, mine own mouth shall condemn me: though I be perfect, it shall prove me perverse. RV1885 — Job 9:20

21 I am perfect; I regard not myself; I despise my life. RV1885 — Job 9:21

22 It is all one; therefore I say, He destroyeth the perfect and the wicked. RV1885 — Job 9:22

23 If the scourge slay suddenly, he will mock at the trial of the innocent. RV1885 — Job 9:23

24 The earth is given into the hand of the wicked: he covereth the faces of the judges thereof; if it be not he, who then is it? RV1885 — Job 9:24

25 Now my days are swifter than a post: they flee away, they see no good. RV1885 — Job 9:25

26 They are passed away as the swift ships: as the eagle that swoopeth on the prey. RV1885 — Job 9:26

27 If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will put off my sad countenance, and be of good cheer: RV1885 — Job 9:27

28 I am afraid of all my sorrows, I know that thou wilt not hold me innocent. RV1885 — Job 9:28

29 I shall be condemned; why then do I labour in vain? RV1885 — Job 9:29

30 If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands never so clean; RV1885 — Job 9:30

31 Yet wilt thou plunge me in the ditch, and mine own clothes shall abhor me. RV1885 — Job 9:31

32 For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, that we should come together in judgment. RV1885 — Job 9:32

33 There is no daysman betwixt us, that might lay his hand upon us both. RV1885 — Job 9:33

34 Let him take his rod away from me, and let not his terror make me afraid: RV1885 — Job 9:34

35 Then would I speak, and not fear him; for I am not so in myself. RV1885 — Job 9:35
