New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Job 9
24 "The earth is given into the hand of the wicked; He covers the faces of its judges. If it is not He, then who is it?
25 "Now my days are swifter than a runner; They flee away, they see no good.
26 "They slip by like reed boats, Like an eagle that swoops on its prey.
27 "Though I say, ’I will forget my complaint, I will leave off my sad countenance and be cheerful,’
28 I am afraid of all my pains, I know that You will not acquit me.
29 "I am accounted wicked, Why then should I toil in vain?
30 "If I should wash myself with snow And cleanse my hands with lye,
31 Yet You would plunge me into the pit, And my own clothes would abhor me.
32 "For He is not a man as I am that I may answer Him, That we may go to court together.
33 "There is no umpire between us, Who may lay his hand upon us both.
34 "Let Him remove His rod from me, And let not dread of Him terrify me.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
