Job 9:9-17 New Century Version (NCV)

9. It is God who made the Bear, Orion, and the Pleiadesand the groups of stars in the southern sky.

10. He does wonders that cannot be understood;he does so many miracles they cannot be counted.

11. When he passes me, I cannot see him;when he goes by me, I do not recognize him.

12. If he snatches something away, no one can stop himor say to him, ‘What are you doing?’

13. God will not hold back his anger.Even the helpers of the monster Rahab lie at his feet in fear.

14. So how can I argue with God,or even find words to argue with him?

15. Even if I were right, I could not answer him;I could only beg God, my Judge, for mercy.

16. If I called to him and he answered,I still don’t believe he would listen to me.

17. He would crush me with a stormand multiply my wounds for no reason.
