11 Behold, he passes by me, and I (A)see him not;
    he moves on, but I do not perceive him.
12 Behold, he snatches away; (B)who can turn him back?
    (C)Who will say to him, ‘What are you doing?’

13 “God will not turn back his anger;
    beneath him bowed the helpers of (D)Rahab.
14 (E)How then can I (F)answer him,
    choosing my words with him?
15 (G)Though I am in the right, I cannot answer him;
    I must (H)appeal for mercy to my accuser.[a]
16 If I summoned him and he answered me,
    I would not believe that he was listening to my voice.
