¹² Behold, he taketh away, who can hinder him? who will say unto him, What doest thou?

¹⁴ How much less shall I answer him, and choose out my words to reason with him?

²⁹ If I be wicked, why then labour I in vain?

³² For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, and we should come together in judgment.

² I will say unto God, Do not condemn me; shew me wherefore thou contendest with me.

¹⁴ Behold, he breaketh down, and it cannot be built again: he shutteth up a man, and there can be no opening.

⁹ Is it good that he should search you out? or as one man mocketh another, do ye so mock him?

¹⁴ Wherefore do I take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in mine hand?

⁴ Will he reprove thee for fear of thee? will he enter with thee into judgment?

⁷ There the righteous might dispute with him; so should I be delivered for ever from my judge.
