How Can Man Be Just with God? — Job 9:21–26
I am perfect; I regard not myself;
I despise my life.
I despise my life.
It is all one; therefore I say,
He destroyeth the perfect and the wicked.
He destroyeth the perfect and the wicked.
JOB
If the scourge slay suddenly,
He will mock at the trial of the innocent.
He will mock at the trial of the innocent.
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?
He covereth the faces of the judges thereof:
If it be not he, who then is it?
Now my days are swifter than a post:
They flee away, they see no good.
They flee away, they see no good.
They are passed away as the swift ships;
As the eagle that swoopeth on the prey.
As the eagle that swoopeth on the prey.
JOB
