Job 9:21

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Though I were perfect, yet would I not know my soul: I would despise my life.

Search me, O God, and know my heart;

Try me and know my anxious thoughts;

He who trusts in his own heart is a fool,
But he who walks wisely will be delivered.

“The heart is more deceitful than all else
And is desperately sick;
Who can understand it?

For I am conscious of nothing against myself, yet I am not by this acquitted; but the one who examines me is the Lord.

in whatever our heart condemns us; for God is greater than our heart and knows all things.

So that my soul would choose suffocation,
Death rather than my pains.
