“How much less shall I answer him, And choose out my words to reason with him? ”
“How much less shall I answer him, And choose my words to argue with him?”
“What am I then, that I should answer him, and have words with him?”

“How much less shall I answer him, and choose out my words to reason with him?”
If he passes by me, I cannot see him, if he goes by, I cannot perceive him.
If he snatches away, who can turn him back? Who dares to say to him,‘What are you doing?’
God does not restrain his anger; under him the helpers of Rahab lie crushed.
The Impossibility of Facing God in Court“How much less, then, can I answer him and choose my words to argue with him!
Although I am innocent, I could not answer him; I could only plead with my judge for mercy.
If I summoned him, and he answered me, I would not believe that he would be listening to my voice–
he who crushes me with a tempest, and multiplies my wounds for no reason.
