3. If one wished to dispute with Him, he would not answer Him one time out of a thousand.
4. Wise in heart and mighty in strength – who has hardened himself against Him and is at peace?
5. He who removes mountains, and they do not know it, when He overturns them in His displeasure;
6. who shakes the earth out of its place, and its columns tremble;
7. who commands the sun, and it does not rise; and He seals up the stars,
8. stretching out the heavens by Himself, and treading upon the waves of the sea;
9. who made Ash, Kesil, and Kimah, and the rooms of the south;
10. who performs great and unsearchable deeds, and innumerable wonders.
11. Look, He goes by me, and I do not see; and He moves past, but I do not discern Him.
12. Look, He snatches away, who brings it back? Who says to Him, ‘What are You doing?’

14. How much less would I answer Him, choose my words with Him?
15. For though I were righteous, I would not answer Him. I pray to Him for my right-ruling.
16. Though I had called and He answered me, I would not believe that He was listening to my voice.
17. For He crushes me with a storm, and has multiplied my wounds for no cause.
18. He does not allow me to recover my breath, but fills me with bitterness.
