Job 9:14

Read in context

Job 9:12–16 · Berean Standard Bible

12 If He takes away, who can stop Him? Who dares to ask Him, ‘What are You doing?’

13 God does not restrain His anger; the helpers of Rahab cower beneath Him.

14 How then can I answer Him or choose my arguments against Him?

15 For even if I were right, I could not answer. I could only beg my Judge for mercy.

16 If I summoned Him and He answered me, I do not believe He would listen to my voice.
