and the pillars thereof tremble.
[7] Which commandeth the sun, and it riseth not; and sealeth up the stars.
[8] Which alone spreadeth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea.
[9] Which maketh Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of the south.
[10] Which doeth great things past finding out; yea, and wonders without number.
[11] Lo, he goeth by me, and I see him not: he passeth on also, but I perceive him not.
[12] Behold, he taketh away, who can hinder him? who will say unto him, What doest thou?
[13] If God will not withdraw his anger, the proud helpers do stoop under him.
[14] How much less shall I answer him, and choose out my words to reason with him?
[15] Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answer, but I would make supplication to my judge.
[16] If I had called, and he had answered me; yet would I not believe that he had hearkened unto my voice.
[17] For he breaketh me with a tempest, and multiplieth my wounds without cause.
[18] He will not suffer me to take my breath, but filleth me with bitterness.
[19] If I speak of strength, lo, he is strong: and if of judgment, who shall set me a time to plead?
[20] If I justify myself, mine own mouth shall condemn me: if I say, I am perfect, it shall also prove me perverse.
[21] Though I were perfect, yet would I not know my soul: I would despise my life.
[22] This is one thing, therefore I said it, He destroyeth the perfect and the wicked.
[23] If the scourge slay suddenly, he will laugh at the trial of the innocent.
[24] The earth is given into the hand of the wicked: he covereth the faces of the judges thereof; if not, where, and who is he?
[25] Now my days are swifter than a post: they flee away, they see no good.
[26] They are passed away as the swift ships: as the eagle that hasteth to the prey.
[27] If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will leave off my heaviness, and comfort myself:
[28] I am afraid of all my sorrows, I know that thou wilt not hold me innocent.
[29] If I be wicked, why then labour I in vain?
[30] If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands never so clean;
[31] Yet shalt thou plunge me in the ditch, and mine own clothes shall abhor me.
[32] For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, and we should come together in judgment.
[33] Neither is there any daysman betwixt us, that might lay his hand upon us both.
[34] Let him take his rod away from me, and let not his fear terrify me:
[35] Then would I speak, and not fear him; but it is not so with me.

Job.10

[1] My soul is weary of my life; I will leave my complaint upon myself; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
[2] I will say unto God, Do not condemn me; shew me wherefore thou contendest with me.
[3] Is it good unto thee that thou shouldest oppress, that thou shouldest despise the work of thine hands, and shine upon the counsel of the wicked?
[4] Hast thou eyes of flesh? or seest thou as man seeth?
[5] Are thy days as the days of man? are thy years as man's days,
[6] That thou inquirest after mine iniquity, and searchest after my sin?
[7] Thou knowest that I am not wicked; and there is none that can deliver out of thine hand.
[8] Thine hands have made me and fashioned me together round about; yet thou dost destroy me.
[9] Remember, I beseech thee, that thou hast made me as the clay; and wilt thou bring me into dust again?
[10] Hast thou not poured me out as milk, and curdled me like cheese?
[11] Thou hast clothed me with skin and flesh, and hast fenced me with bones and sinews.
[12] Thou hast granted me life and favour, and thy visitation hath preserved my spirit.
[13] And these things hast thou hid in thine heart: I know that this is with thee.
[14] If I sin, then thou markest me, and thou wilt not acquit me from mine iniquity.
[15] If I be wicked, woe unto me; and if I be righteous, yet will I not lift up my head. I am full of confusion; therefore see thou mine affliction;
[16] For it increaseth. Thou huntest me as a fierce lion: and again thou shewest thyself marvellous upon me.
[17] Thou renewest thy witnesses against me, and increasest thine indignation upon me; changes and war are against me.
[18] Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb? Oh that I had given up the ghost, and no eye had seen me!
[19] I should have been as though I had not been; I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.
[20] Are not my days few? cease then, and let me alone, that I may take comfort a little,
[21] Before I go whence I shall not return, even to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;
[22] A land of darkness, as darkness itself; and of the shadow of death, without any order, and where the light is as darkness.

Job.11

[1] Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said,
[2] Should not the multitude of words be answered? and should a man full of talk be justified?
[3] Should thy lies make men hold their peace? and when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed?
[4] For thou hast said, My doctrine is pure, and I am clean
