Job 9:13-15
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
13 He is God and he does not relent;
the helpers of Rahab[a] bow beneath him.
14 How then could I give him any answer,
or choose out arguments against him!
15 Even though I were right, I could not answer,(A)
but should rather beg for what was due me.
Job 9:13-15
New International Version
Job 9:13-15
King James Version
13 If God will not withdraw his anger, the proud helpers do stoop under him.
14 How much less shall I answer him, and choose out my words to reason with him?
15 Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answer, but I would make supplication to my judge.
