Job - Chapter: 9


9:1	Then Iob answered, and said,
9:2	I know it is so of a trueth: but howe should man be iust with God.
9:3	If he will contend with him, he cannot answere him one of a thousand.
9:4	He is wise in heart, and mightie in strength: who hath hardened himselfe against him, and hath prospered?
9:5	Which remoueth the mountains, and they know not: which ouerturneth them in his anger:
9:6	Which shaketh the earth out of her place, & the pillars thereof tremble:
9:7	Which commandeth the Sunne, and it riseth not: and sealeth vp the starres.
9:8	Which alone spreadeth out the heauens, and treadeth vpon the waues of the Sea.
9:9	Which maketh Arcturus, Orion and Pleiades, and the chambers of the South.
9:10	Which doeth great things past finding out, yea and wonders without number.
9:11	Loe, hee goeth by me, and I see him not: he passeth on also, but I perceiue him not.
9:12	Behold, he taketh away, who can hinder him? who will say vnto him, What doest thou?
9:13	If God will not withdraw his anger, the proud helpers doe stoupe vnder him.
9:14	How much lesse shall I answere him, and choose out my words to reason with him?
9:15	Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answere, but I would make supplication to my Iudge.
9:16	If I had called, and had answered me, yet would I not beleeue that he had hearkened vnto my voice:
9:17	For he breaketh me with a tempest, and multiplieth my wounds without cause.
9:18	Hee will not suffer me to take my breath, but filleth me with bitternesse.
9:19	If I speake of strength, loe, hee is strong: and if of iudgement, who shall set me a time to pleade?
9:20	If I iustifie my selfe, mine owne mouth shall condemne me: If I say, I am perfect, it shall also prooue me peruerse.
9:21	Though I were perfect, yet would I not know my soule: I would despise my life.
9:22	This is one thing, therefore I said it; he destroyeth the perfect and the wicked.
9:23	If the scourge slay suddenly, hee will laugh at the triall of the innocent.
9:24	The earth is giuen into the hand of the wicked: he couereth the faces of the Iudges thereof; if not, where, and who is hee?
9:25	Now my dayes are swifter then a Poste: they flee away, they see no good.
9:26	They are passed away as the ships: as the Eagle that hasteth to the pray.
9:27	If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will leaue off my heauinesse, and comfort my selfe.
9:28	I am afraid of all my sorrowes, I know that thou wilt not holde me innocent.
9:29	If I be wicked, why then labour I in vaine?
9:30	If I wash my selfe with snow water, and make my handes neuer so cleane:
9:31	Yet shalt thou plunge me in the ditch, and mine owne clothes shall abhorre me.
9:32	For he is not a man as I am, that I should answere him, and we should come together in iudgement.
9:33	Neither is there any dayes-man betwixt vs, that might lay his hand vpon vs both.
9:34	Let him take his rodde away from me, & let not his feare terrifie me:
9:35	Then would I speake, and not feare him; but it is not so with me.


9:1	Iob aunswered, and sayde
9:2	I knowe it is so of a trueth: For how may a man compared vnto God be iustified
9:3	If he wil argue with hym, he can not aunswere hym one thing of a thousande
9:4	He is wyse in heart and mightie in strength: who hath ben fearce against hym, and hath prospered
9:5	He translateth the mountaynes, or euer they be aware it is he that ouerthroweth them in his wrath
9:6	He remoueth the earth out of her place, that the pillers therof shake withall
9:7	He commaundeth the sunne, and it ryseth not: he closeth vp the starres as vnder a signet
9:8	He hym selfe alone spreadeth out the heauens, and goeth vpon the waues of the sea
9:9	He maketh the Waynes of heauen, the Orion, the seuen starres, and the secret places of the south
9:10	He doth great thinges & vnsearcheable, yea and wonders without number
9:11	Lo, when he goeth by me, I shal not see hym, and when he passeth, I shall not perceaue hym
9:12	If he be hastie to take away, who wil make him restore it? or who will say vnto hym, what doest thou
9:13	God will not withdraw his anger, and the most mightie helpes do stowpe vnder hym
9:14	Howe much lesse shall I aunswere him? or howe shoulde I finde out my wordes with him
9:15	For though I were righteous, yet might I not geue him one word againe, but mekely submit my selfe to hym as my iudge
9:16	If I had called vpon hym, and he had aunswered me, yet woulde I not beleue that he hearde my voyce
9:17	He troubleth me so with the tempest, and woundeth me out of measure without a cause
9:18	He will not suffer me to take my breath, but filleth me with bitternesse
9:19	If men will speake of strength, lo he is strong: if men will speake of iudgement, who shall bring me in to pleade
9:20	If I will iustifie my selfe, myne owne mouth shall condempne me: if I will put foorth my selfe for a perfect man, he shall proue me a wicked doer
9:21	For though I be an innocent and my conscience cleare, yet am I weery of my lyfe
9:22	This is one poynt, and therefore I sayd, He destroyeth both the perfect and vngodly
9:23	And though he slay sodaynly with the scourge, yet will he laugh at the punishment of the innocent
9:24	As for the worlde it is geuen ouer into the hande of the wicked, and he shall couer the faces of the iudges therof: if not, where is he, or who is he [that can shewe the contrarie?
9:25	My dayes are more swyft then a runner, they are gone & haue seene no good thing
9:26	They are passed away as the shippes that be good vnder sayle, & as the eagle that fleeth to the pray
9:27	If I say, I will forget my complayning, I will ceasse from my wrath, and comfort my selfe
9:28	Then am I afrayde of all my sorowes, for I knowe that thou wilt not iudge me innocent
9:29	If I be wicked, why then labour I in vayne
9:30	If I washe my selfe with snowe water, and make myne handes neuer so cleane at the well
9:31	Yet shalt thou dippe me in the myre, and mine owne clothes shal defile me
9:32	For he that I must geue aunswere vnto, and with whom I go to the lawe, is not a man as I am
9:33	Neither is there any dayesman to lay his hande betweene vs
9:34	Let hym take his rodde away from me, yea let hym make me no more afrayde of him
9:35	And then shall I aunswere hym without any feare: but because I am not so, I holde me still


9:1	Then Iob answered, and sayd,
9:2	I knowe verily that it is so: for howe should man compared vnto God, be iustified?
9:3	If I would dispute with him, hee could not answere him one thing of a thousand.
9:4	He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength: who hath bene fierce against him and hath prospered?
9:5	He remoueth the mountaines, and they feele not when he ouerthroweth them in his wrath.
9:6	Hee remooueth the earth out of her place, that the pillars thereof doe shake.
9:7	He commandeth the sunne, and it riseth not: hee closeth vp the starres, as vnder a signet.
9:8	Hee himselfe alone spreadeth out the heauens, and walketh vpon the height of the sea.
9:9	He maketh the starres Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the climates of the South.
9:10	He doeth great things, and vnsearcheable: yea, marueilous things without nomber.
9:11	Lo, when he goeth by me, I see him not: and when he passeth by, I perceiue him not.
9:12	Behold, when he taketh a pray, who can make him to restore it? who shall say vnto him, What doest thou?
9:13	God will not withdrawe his anger, and the most mightie helpes doe stoupe vnder him.
9:14	Howe much lesse shall I answere him? or howe should I finde out my words with him?
9:15	For though I were iust, yet could I not answere, but I would make supplication to my Iudge.
9:16	If I cry, and he answere me, yet woulde I not beleeue, that he heard my voyce.
9:17	For he destroyeth mee with a tempest, and woundeth me without cause.
9:18	He wil not suffer me to take my breath, but filleth me with bitternesse.
9:19	If we speake of strength, behold, he is strog: if we speake of iudgement, who shall bring me in to pleade?
9:20	If I woulde iustifie my selfe, mine owne mouth shall condemne mee: if I would be perfite, he shall iudge me wicked.
9:21	Though I were perfite, yet I knowe not my soule: therefore abhorre I my life.
9:22	This is one point: therefore I said, Hee destroyeth the perfite and the wicked.
9:23	If the scourge should suddenly slay, should God laugh at the punishment of the innocent?
9:24	The earth is giuen into the hand of ye wicked: he couereth the faces of the iudges therof: if not, where is he? or who is he?
9:25	My dayes haue bene more swift then a post: they haue fled, and haue seene no good thing.
9:26	They are passed as with the most swift ships, and as the eagle that flyeth to the pray.
9:27	If I say, I wil forget my complaynt, I will cease from my wrath, and comfort mee,
9:28	Then I am afrayd of all my sorowes, knowing that thou wilt not iudge me innocent.
9:29	If I be wicked, why labour I thus in vaine?
9:30	If I wash my selfe with snowe water, and purge mine hands most cleane,
9:31	Yet shalt thou plunge mee in the pit, and mine owne clothes shall make me filthie.
9:32	For he is not a man as I am, that I shoulde answere him, if we come together to iudgement.
9:33	Neyther is there any vmpire that might lay his hand vpon vs both.
9:34	Let him take his rod away from me, and let not his feare astonish me:
9:35	Then will I speake, and feare him not: but because I am not so, I holde me still.
