Job 33:10

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Behold, he findeth occasions against me, he counteth me for his enemy,

If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands ever so clean;

If I am wicked, woe unto me; and if I am righteous, yet can I not lift up my head. I am full of disgrace; therefore see my affliction;

Will you break a leaf driven to and fro? and will you pursue the dry stubble?

For now you number my steps: do not watch over my sin.

For Job has said, I am righteous: and God has taken away my justice.

Why hide you your face, and hold me for your enemy?

He tears me in his wrath, who hates me: he gnashes upon me with his teeth; my enemy sharpens his eyes upon me.

He has also kindled his wrath against me, and he counts me unto him as one of his enemies.

You have become cruel to me: with your strong hand you oppose yourself against me.

Oh that one would hear me! behold, my desire is, that the Almighty would answer me, and that my adversary had written a book.

Therefore does Job open his mouth in vain; he multiplies words without knowledge.
