Amplified Bible

Job 9:7-16 Amplified Bible (AMP)

7. Who commands the sun, and it rises not; Who seals up the stars [from view];

8. Who alone stretches out the heavens and treads upon the waves and high places of the sea;

9. Who made [the constellations] the Bear, Orion, and the [loose cluster] Pleiades, and the [vast starry] spaces of the south;

10. Who does great things past finding out, yes, marvelous things without number.

11. Behold, He goes by me, and I see Him not; He passes on also, but I perceive Him not.

12. Behold, He snatches away; who can hinder or turn Him back? Who will say to Him, What are You doing?

13. God will not withdraw His anger; the [proud] helpers of Rahab [arrogant monster of the sea] bow under Him.

14. How much less shall I answer Him, choosing out my words to reason with Him

15. Whom, though I were righteous (upright and innocent) yet I could not answer? I must appeal for mercy to my Opponent and Judge [for my right].

16. If I called and He answered me, yet would I not believe that He listened to my voice.
