Job 9:26
24 The earth is given into the hand of the wicked; He blindfolds its judges. If it is not He, then who is it?
25 My days are swifter than a runner; they flee without seeing good.
They sweep by like boats of papyrus, like an eagle swooping down on its prey.
27 If I were to say, ‘I will forget my complaint and change my expression and smile,’
28 I would still dread all my sufferings; I know that You will not acquit me.
