Job 31:15

Job's Final Defense Continued

¹⁴ what could I do when God stands up to judge?
How should I answer Him when He calls me to account?
¹⁵ Did not the One who made me in the womb also make them?
Did not the same God form us both in the womb? ¹⁶ If I have refused the wishes of the poor
or let the widow’s eyes go blind,

God Created
