Job 33:9

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

I am clean without transgression, I am innocent; neither is there iniquity in me.

For he crushes me with a storm, and keeps on wounding me for no reason.

Although you know that I'm not guilty, there's no one to deliver me from you!

even though violence is not my intention, and my prayer is pure."

My feet stay where his footsteps lead; I kept on his pathway and haven't turned aside.

Far be it from me to admit that you're right! I intend to maintain my integrity even if it kills me!

I put on righteousness like clothing; my just decisions were like a robe and a turban.

If a calamity causes sudden death, he'll mock at the despair of the innocent.

The upright are appalled over this, and the innocent person is troubled by the godless.

you say, "I'm innocent. Surely his anger has turned away from me.'" "I'm about to bring charges against you because you say, "I haven't sinned.'

When he began speaking, he communicated only worthlessness; he added words upon words without knowing anything."
