Job-9

(World English Bible)

切换到福音影视网-新版圣经

  • 1 Then Job answered,
  • 2 “Truly I know that it is so, but how can man be just with God?
  • 3 If he is pleased to contend with him, he can’t answer him one time in a thousand.
  • 4 God who is wise in heart, and mighty in strength: who has hardened himself against him, and prospered?
  • 5 He removes the mountains, and they don’t know it, when he overturns them in his anger.
  • 6 He shakes the earth out of its place. Its pillars tremble.
  • 7 He commands the sun, and it doesn’t rise, and seals up the stars.
  • 8 He alone stretches out the heavens, and treads on the waves of the sea.
  • 9 He makes the Bear, Orion, and the Pleiades, and the rooms of the south.
  • 10 He does great things past finding out; yes, marvelous things without number.
  • 11 Behold, he goes by me, and I don’t see him. He passes on also, but I don’t perceive him.
  • 12 Behold, he snatches away. Who can hinder him? Who will ask him, ‘What are you doing?’
  • 13 “God will not withdraw his anger. The helpers of Rahab stoop under him.
  • 14 How much less shall I answer him, And choose my words to argue with him?
  • 15 Though I were righteous, yet I wouldn’t answer him. I would make supplication to my judge.
  • 16 If I had called, and he had answered me, yet I wouldn’t believe that he listened to my voice.
  • 17 For he breaks me with a storm, and multiplies my wounds without cause.
  • 18 He will not allow me to catch my breath, but fills me with bitterness.
  • 19 If it is a matter of strength, behold, he is mighty! If of justice, ‘Who,’ says he, ‘will summon me?’
  • 20 Though I am righteous, my own mouth shall condemn me. Though I am blameless, it shall prove me perverse.
  • 21 I am blameless. I don’t respect myself. I despise my life.
  • 22 “It is all the same. Therefore I say he destroys the blameless and the wicked.
  • 23 If the scourge kills suddenly, he will mock at the trial of the innocent.
  • 24 The earth is given into the hand of the wicked. He covers the faces of its judges. If not he, then who is it?
  • 25 “Now my days are swifter than a runner. They flee away, they see no good.
  • 26 They have passed away as the swift ships, as the eagle that swoops on the prey.
  • 27 If I say, ‘I will forget my complaint, I will put off my sad face, and cheer up;’
  • 28 I am afraid of all my sorrows, I know that you will not hold me innocent.
  • 29 I shall be condemned. Why then do I labor in vain?
  • 30 If I wash myself with snow, and cleanse my hands with lye,
  • 31 yet you will plunge me in the ditch. My own clothes shall abhor me.
  • 32 For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, that we should come together in judgment.
  • 33 There is no umpire between us, that might lay his hand on us both.
  • 34 Let him take his rod away from me. Let his terror not make me afraid;
  • 35 then I would speak, and not fear him, for I am not so in myself.
