10. Yet He finds occasions against me,He counts me as His enemy;
11. He puts my feet in the stocks,He watches all my paths.’
12. “Look, in this you are not righteous.I will answer you,For God is greater than man.
13. Why do you contend with Him?For He does not give an accounting of any of His words.
14. For God may speak in one way, or in another,Yet man does not perceive it.
15. In a dream, in a vision of the night,When deep sleep falls upon men,While slumbering on their beds,
16. Then He opens the ears of men,And seals their instruction.
17. In order to turn man from his deed,And conceal pride from man,
18. He keeps back his soul from the Pit,And his life from perishing by the sword.
19. “Man is also chastened with pain on his bed,And with strong pain in many of his bones,
20. So that his life abhors bread,And his soul succulent food.
