Job 33:10

Bible in Basic English 1965

See, he is looking for something against me; in his eyes I am as one of his haters;

See the chapter Copy

For now my steps are numbered by you, and my sin is not overlooked.

I am broken by his wrath, and his hate has gone after me; he has made his teeth sharp against me: my haters are looking on me with cruel eyes;

His wrath is burning against me, and I am to him as one of his haters.

You have become cruel to me; the strength of your hand is hard on me.

If only God would give ear to me, and the Ruler of all would give me an answer! or if what he has against me had been put in writing!

For Job has said, I am upright, and it is God who has taken away my right;

For I would be crushed by his storm, my wounds would be increased without cause.

I go in fear of all my pains; I am certain that I will not be free from sin in your eyes.

You will not let me be clear of sin! why then do I take trouble for nothing?
