Job 13:26

Job Argues His Case With God

²⁵ Will You frighten a wind-driven leaf?
Will You chase after dry straw?
²⁶ For You record bitter accusations against me
and make me inherit the iniquities of my youth.
²⁷ You put my feet in the stocks
and stand watch over all my paths,
setting a limit for the soles of my feet.
