Job 9:16 BBE

¹⁴  How much less may I give an answer to him, using the right words in argument with him?

¹⁵  Even if my cause was good, I would not be able to give an answer; I would make request for grace from him who was against me.

¹⁶  If I had sent for him to be present, and he had come, I would have no faith that he would give ear to my voice.

¹⁷  For I would be crushed by his storm, my wounds would be increased without cause.

¹⁸  He would not let me take my breath, but I would be full of bitter grief.
