Job 9:17 ASV

¹⁵  Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answer; I would make supplication to my judge.

¹⁶  If I had called, and he had answered me, Yet would I not believe that he 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 'we speak' of strength, lo, 'he is' mighty! And if of justice, Who, 'saith he', will summon me?
