Job 9:16-18

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁶ If I summoned him and he answered me,
    I do not believe that he would listen to my voice.
¹⁷ For he crushes me with a tempest,
    and multiplies my wounds without cause;
¹⁸ he will not let me get my breath,
    but fills me with bitterness.
