Job's Reply to Bildad

|

# Chapter 9
|
||||
1. Then Job answered:
|
||||
|
||||
2. Yes, I know what you've said is true,
|
||||
but how can a person be justified before God?
|
||||
|
||||
3. If one wanted to take him to court,
|
||||
he could not answer God once in a thousand times.
|
||||
|
||||
4. God is wise and all-powerful.
|
||||
Who has opposed him and come out unharmed?
|
||||
|
||||
5. He removes mountains without their knowledge,
|
||||
overturning them in his anger.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
6. He shakes the earth from its place
|
||||
so that its pillars tremble.
|
||||
|
||||
7. He commands the sun not to shine
|
||||
and seals off the stars.
|
||||
|
||||
8. He alone stretches out the heavens
|
||||
and treads on the waves of the sea.
|
||||
|
||||
9. He makes the stars: the Bear, Orion,
|
||||
the Pleiades, and the constellations of the southern sky.
|
||||
|
||||
10. He does great and unsearchable things,
|
||||
wonders without number.
|
||||
|
||||
11. If he passed by me, I wouldn't see him;
|
||||
if he went by, I wouldn't recognize him.
|
||||
|
||||
12. If he snatches something, who can stop him?
|
||||
Who can ask him, "What are you doing?"
|
||||
|
||||
13. God does not hold back his anger;
|
||||
Rahab's assistants cringe in fear beneath him!
|
||||
|
||||
14. How then can I answer him
|
||||
or choose my arguments against him?
|
||||
|
||||
15. Even if I were in the right, I could not answer.
|
||||
I could only beg my Judge for mercy.
|
||||
|
||||
16. If I summoned him and he answered me,
|
||||
I do not believe he would pay attention to what I said.
|
||||
|
||||
17. He batters me with a whirlwind
|
||||
and multiplies my wounds without cause.
|
||||
|
||||
18. He doesn't let me catch my breath
|
||||
but fills me with bitter experiences.
|
||||
|
||||
19. If it is a matter of strength, look, he is the powerful one!
|
||||
If it is a matter of justice, who can summon him?
|
||||
|
||||
20. Even if I were in the right, my own mouth would condemn me;
|
||||
if I were blameless, my mouth would declare me guilty.
|
||||
|
||||
21. Though I am blameless,
|
||||
I no longer care about myself;
|
||||
I renounce my life.
|
||||
|
||||
22. It is all the same. Therefore I say,
|
||||
"He destroys both the blameless and the wicked."
|
||||
|
||||
23. When catastrophe brings sudden death,
|
||||
he mocks the despair of the innocent.
|
||||
|
||||
24. The earth is handed over to the wicked;
|
||||
he blindfolds its judges.
|
||||
If it isn't he, then who is it?
|
||||
|
||||
25. My days fly by faster than a runner;
|
||||
they flee without seeing any good.
|
||||
|
||||
26. They sweep by like boats made of papyrus,
|
||||
like an eagle swooping down on its prey.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
27. If I said, "I will forget my complaint,
|
||||
change my expression, and smile,"
|
||||
|
||||
28. I would still live in terror of all my pains.
|
||||
I know you will not acquit me.
|
||||
|
||||
29. Since I will be found guilty,
|
||||
why should I struggle in vain?
|
||||
|
||||
30. If I wash myself with snow,
|
||||
and cleanse my hands with lye,
|
||||
|
||||
31. then you dip me in a pit of mud,
|
||||
and my own clothes despise me!
|
||||
|
||||
32. For he is not a man like me, that I can answer him,
|
||||
that we can take each other to court.
|
||||
|
||||
33. There is no mediator between us,
|
||||
to lay his hand on both of us.
|
||||
|
||||
34. Let him take his rod away from me
|
||||
so his terror will no longer frighten me.
|
||||
|
||||
35. Then I would speak and not fear him.
|
||||
But that is not the case; I am on my own.
