American King James Version
"If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands never so clean; "
— Job 9:30, American King James Version
“If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands never so clean;”
“If I wash myself with snow water, And make my hands never so clean; ”
“If I wash myself with snow, and cleanse my hands with lye,”
“If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands clean with lye,”
“If I be washed, as it were, with snow waters, and my hands shall shine ever so clean:”
“If I am washed with snow water, and make my hands clean with soap;”
“If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands never so clean;”
If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will leave off my heaviness, and comfort myself:
I am afraid of all my sorrows, I know that you will not hold me innocent.
If I be wicked, why then labor I in vain?
If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands never so clean;
Yet shall you plunge me in the ditch, and my own clothes shall abhor me.
For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, and we should come together in judgment.
Neither is there any judge between us, that might lay his hand on us both.
