Job 9:12-16
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 9
12If He were to snatch away, who could restrain Him? Who could say to Him, ‘What are You doing?’ 13'God will not turn back His anger; Beneath Him the helpers of Rahab cower. 14How then can I answer Him, And choose my words before Him? 15For though I were right, I could not answer; I would have to implore the mercy of my Judge. 16If I called and He answered me, I could not believe that He was listening to my voice.King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 9
12If he snatches something, who can stop him? Who can ask him, "What are you doing? " 13God does not hold back his anger; Rahab's assistants cringe in fear beneath him! 14How then can I answer him or choose my arguments against him? 15Even if I were in the right, I could not answer. I could only beg my Judge for mercy. 16If I summoned him and he answered me, I do not believe he would pay attention to what I said.New Living Translation
English Standard Version
Chapter 9
12Behold, he snatches away; who can turn him back? Who will say to him, ‘What are you doing?’ 13“God will not turn back his anger; beneath him bowed the helpers of Rahab. 14How then can I answer him, choosing my words with him? 15Though I am in the right, I cannot answer him; I must appeal for mercy to my accuser. 16If I summoned him and he answered me, I would not believe that he was listening to my voice.New International Version
13God does not restrain his anger; even the cohorts of Rahab cowered at his feet.
14How then can I dispute with him? How can I find words to argue with him?
15Though I were innocent, I could not answer him; I could only plead with my Judge for mercy.
16Even if I summoned him and he responded, I do not believe he would give me a hearing.
