Job 10:6
4 Do You have eyes of flesh? Do You see as man sees?
5 Are Your days like those of a mortal, or Your years like those of a man,
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?
8 Your hands shaped me and altogether formed me. Would You now turn and destroy me?
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
