King James Version with Apocrypha
"Though I were perfect, yet would I not know my soul: I would despise my life."
— Job 9:21, King James Version with Apocrypha
“Though I were perfect, yet would I not know my soul: I would despise my life.”
“I am perfect; I regard not myself; I despise my life. ”
“I am blameless. I don't respect myself. I despise my life.”
“I am blameless. I do not know myself. I despise my life.”
“Although I should be simple, even this my soul shall be ignorant of, and I shall be weary of my life.”
“I have done no wrong; I give no thought to what becomes of me; I have no desire for life.”
He will not suffer me to take my breath, but filleth me with bitterness.
If I speak of strength, lo, he is strong: and if of judgment, who shall set me a time to plead?
If I justify myself, mine own mouth shall condemn me: if I say, I am perfect, it shall also prove me perverse.
Though I were perfect, yet would I not know my soul: I would despise my life.
This is one thing, therefore I said it, He destroyeth the perfect and the wicked.
If the scourge slay suddenly, he will laugh at the trial of the innocent.
The earth is given into the hand of the wicked: he covereth the faces of the judges thereof; if not, where, and who is he?
