Job 9:32–10:2

32 For he is not a man like me, that I can answer him,y

that we can take each other to court.

33 There is no mediator between us,

to lay his hand on both of us.

34 Let him take his rod away from me

so his terror will no longer frighten me.z

35 Then I would speak and not fear him.

But that is not the case; I am on my own.

10 I am disgusted with my life.aa

I will give vent to my complaint

and speak in the bitterness of my soul.

2 I will say to God,

“Do not declare me guilty!

Let me know why you prosecute me.
