Job 9:13
11 Were He to pass by me, I would not see Him; were He to move, I would not recognize Him.
12 If He takes away, who can stop Him? Who dares to ask Him, ‘What are You doing?’
God does not restrain His anger; the helpers of Rahab cower beneath Him.
14 How then can I answer Him or choose my arguments against Him?
15 For even if I were right, I could not answer. I could only beg my Judge for mercy.
Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
