< Job 9 >
1 And Job made answer and said,
And he answered Job and he said.
2 Truly, I see that it is so: and how is it possible for a man to get his right before God?
Truly I know that thus and what? will he be justified a person with God.
3 If a man was desiring to go to law with him, he would not be able to give him an answer to one out of a thousand questions.
If someone desires to conduct a case with him not he will answer him one [time] from a thousand.
4 He is wise in heart and great in strength: who ever made his face hard against him, and any good came of it?
Wise of heart and strong of power who? has he shown stubbornness to him and he has remained unharmed.
5 It is he who takes away the mountains without their knowledge, overturning them in his wrath:
The [one who] removes mountains and not they know [the one] who he overturns them in anger his.
6 Who is moving the earth out of its place, so that its pillars are shaking:
The [one who] shakes [the] earth from place its and pillars its they tremble!
7 Who gives orders to the sun, and it does not give its light; and who keeps the stars from shining.
The [one who] speaks to the sun and not it shines and behind [the] stars he puts a seal.
8 By whose hand the heavens were stretched out, and who is walking on the waves of the sea:
[one who] stretches out [the] heavens To only him and [one who] treads on [the] high places of [the] sea.
9 Who made the Bear and Orion, and the Pleiades, and the store-houses of the south:
[one who] makes [the] Bear Orion and Pleiades and [the] chambers of [the] south.
10 Who does great things not to be searched out; yes, wonders without number.
[one who] does Great [things] until there not [is] inquiry and wonders until there not [is] number.
11 See, he goes past me and I see him not: he goes on before, but I have no knowledge of him.
There! he will pass by at me and not I will see [him] and he may pass on and not I will perceive him.
12 If he puts out his hand to take, by whom may it be turned back? who may say to him, What are you doing?
There! he will snatch away who? will he turn back him who? will he say to him what? are you doing.
13 God's wrath may not be turned back; the helpers of Rahab were bent down under him.
God not he will turn back anger his (under him *Q(k)*) they lay prostrate [the] helpers of Rahab.
14 How much less may I give an answer to him, using the right words in argument with him?
Indeed? for I I will answer him I will choose words my with him.
15 Even if my cause was good, I would not be able to give an answer; I would make request for grace from him who was against me.
[I] who Though I am righteous not I will answer to judge my I will seek favor.
16 If I had sent for him to be present, and he had come, I would have no faith that he would give ear to my voice.
If I called and he answered me not I believe that he gave ear to voice my.
17 For I would be crushed by his storm, my wounds would be increased without cause.
[he] who With a storm he crushes me and he increases wounds my without cause.
18 He would not let me take my breath, but I would be full of bitter grief.
Not he permits me to bring back breath my for he surfeits me bitter things.
19 If it is a question of strength, he says, Here I am! and if it is a question of a cause at law, he says, Who will give me a fixed day?
If to power a strong [one] there! and if to justice who? will he summon me.
20 Though I was in the right, he would say that I was in the wrong; I have done no evil; but he says that I am a sinner.
Though I am righteous own mouth my it will condemn as guilty me [am] blameless I and it declared guilty me.
21 I have done no wrong; I give no thought to what becomes of me; I have no desire for life.
[am] blameless I not I know self my I reject life my.
22 It is all the same to me; so I say, He puts an end to the sinner and to him who has done no wrong together.
[is] one It there-fore I say [the] blameless and [the] wicked he [is] bringing to an end.
23 If death comes suddenly through disease, he makes sport of the fate of those who have done no wrong.
If a scourge it kills suddenly [the] despair of innocent [ones] he mocks.
24 The land is given into the power of the evil-doer; the faces of its judges are covered; if not by him, then who has done it?
A land - it has been given in [the] hand of a wicked [person] [the] face of judges its he covers if not then who? [is] it.
25 My days go quicker than a post-runner: they go in flight, they see no good.
And days my they have been swift more than a runner they have fled not they have seen good.
26 They go rushing on like reed-boats, like an eagle dropping suddenly on its food.
They have passed on with ships of reed like an eagle [which] it rushes on food.
27 If I say, I will put my grief out of mind, I will let my face be sad no longer and I will be bright;
If to say I I will forget complaint my I will let loose face my and I will be cheerful.
28 I go in fear of all my pains; I am certain that I will not be free from sin in your eyes.
I dread all pains my I know that not you will acquit me.
29 You will not let me be clear of sin! why then do I take trouble for nothing?
I I will be guilty why? this vanity will I labor.
30 If I am washed with snow water, and make my hands clean with soap;
If I washed myself (in water of *Q(K)*) snow and I cleansed with potash hands my.
31 Then you will have me pushed into the dust, so that I will seem disgusting to my very clothing.
Then in pit you will dip me and they will abhor me own clothes my.
32 For he is not a man as I am, that I might give him an answer, that we might come together before a judge.
For not [he is] a human like me I will answer him we will come together in judgment.
33 There is no one to give a decision between us, who might have control over us.
Not there between us [is] an arbiter he may put hand his on [the] two of us.
34 Let him take away his rod from me and not send his fear on me:
Let him remove from on me rod his and dread his may not it terrify me.
35 Then I would say what is in my mind without fear of him; for there is no cause of fear in myself.
I will speak and not I will fear him for not [am] thus I with myself.
