Job 10:5
3 Does it please You to oppress me, to reject the work of Your hands and favor the schemes of the wicked?
4 Do You have eyes of flesh? Do You see as man sees?
Are Your days like those of a mortal, or Your years like those of a man,
6 that You should seek my iniquity and search out my sin—
7 though You know that I am not guilty, and there is no deliverance from Your hand?
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
