Job 9:20-22

New Living Translation

²⁰ Though I am innocent, my own mouth would pronounce me guilty.
    Though I am blameless, it^[a] would prove me wicked.

²¹ “I am innocent,
    but it makes no difference to me—
    I despise my life.
²² Innocent or wicked, it is all the same to God.
    That’s why I say, ‘He destroys both the blameless and the wicked.’
