King James Version with Apocrypha
"If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands never so clean;"
— Job 9:30, King James Version with Apocrypha
“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 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 thou wilt not hold me innocent.
If I be wicked, why then labour I in vain?
If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands never so clean;
Yet shalt thou plunge me in the ditch, and mine 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 daysman betwixt us, that might lay his hand upon us both.
