Job 9:15

Though I am in the right, I cannot answer him;

I must appeal for mercy to my accuser.

Though I were innocent, I could not answer him;

I could only plead with my Judge for mercy.

Even if I were in the right, I could not answer.

I could only beg my Judge for mercy.

Even if I were right, I would have no defense.

I could only plead for mercy.

whom I cannot answer, even though I am righteous?

From my judge I must implore grace.

Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answer,

But I would make supplication to my judge.
