    he blindfolds the eyes of its judges.[a]
If it is not he who does so,
    then who else is responsible?

Footnotes

  1. Job 9:24 Blindfolds the eyes of [the earth’s] judges: in our day, we portray Lady Justice as wearing a blindfold, meaning that she will be an impartial judge. Job accused God of blindfolding the judges of his time so that they would be oblivious to both crimes and innocence.
