Job 9:1-12

English Standard Version

² “Truly I know that it is so:
    But how can a man be ^(A)in the right before God?
³ If one wished to ^(B)contend with him,
    one could not answer him once in a thousand times.
⁴ He is ^(C)wise in heart and mighty in strength
    —who has ^(D)hardened himself against him, and succeeded?—
⁵ he who removes mountains, and they know it not,
    when he overturns them in his anger,
⁶ who ^(E)shakes the earth out of its place,
    and ^(F)its pillars tremble;
⁷ who commands the sun, and it does not rise;
    who seals up the stars;
⁸ who alone ^(G)stretched out the heavens
    and trampled the waves of the sea;
⁹ who ^(H)made ^(I)the Bear and ^(J)Orion,
    the Pleiades ^(K)and the chambers of the south;
¹⁰ who does ^(L)great things beyond searching out,
    and marvelous things beyond number.
¹¹ Behold, he passes by me, and I ^(M)see him not;
    he moves on, but I do not perceive him.
¹² Behold, he snatches away; ^(N)who can turn him back?
    ^(O)Who will say to him, ‘What are you doing?’
