"And if I now have any justice, I will not respond, but will beseech my judge. "
— Job 9:15, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answer, but I would make supplication to my judge.”
“Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answer; I would make supplication to my judge. ”
“Though I were righteous, yet I wouldn't answer him. I would make supplication to my judge.”
“Although I am innocent, I could not answer him; I could only plead with my judge for mercy.”
“I, who although I should have any just thing, would not answer, but would make supplication to my judge.”
“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.”
“Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answer, but I would make supplication to my judge.”
If he suddenly should question, who will answer him? Or who can say, “Why did you do so?”
God, whose wrath no one is able to resist, and under whom they bend who carry the world,
what am I then, that I should answer him and exchange words with him?
And if I now have any justice, I will not respond, but will beseech my judge.
And if he should listen to me when I call, I would not believe that he had heard my voice.
For he will crush me in a whirlwind and multiply my wounds, even without cause.
He does not permit my spirit to rest, and he fills me with bitterness.
