Job 9:18-20

New International Reader's Version

¹⁸ He wouldn’t let me catch my breath.
    He’d make my life very bitter.
¹⁹ If it’s a matter of strength, he is mighty!
    And if it’s a matter of being fair,
    who would dare to bring charges against him?
²⁰ Even if I hadn’t sinned, what I said would prove me guilty.
    Even if I were honest, my words would show that I’m wrong.
