Job 9:25-32 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

25. Now my days are swifter than a runner: they flee away, they see no good.

26. They are passed away as the swift ships: as the eagle that hastens to the prey.

27. If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will leave off my heaviness, and comfort myself:

28. I am afraid of all my sorrows, I know that you will not hold me innocent.

29. If I am wicked, why then labor I in vain?

30. If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands ever so clean;

31. Yet shall you plunge me in the ditch, and my own clothes shall abhor me.

32. For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, and we should come together in trial.
