Job 9:23-27 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

23. If he scourges, let him kill all at once, and not laugh at the punishment of the innocent.

24. Since the earth has been given into the hand of the impious, he covers the face of its judges; for if it is not him, then who is it?

25. My days have been swifter than a messenger; they have fled and have not seen goodness.

26. They have passed by like ships carrying fruits, just like an eagle flying to food.

27. If I say: "By no means will I speak this way." I change my face and I am tortured with sorrow.
