Job 9:14

King James 2000

How much less shall I answer him, and choose out my words to reason with him?

See the chapter Copy

If you can answer me, set your words in order before me, stand up.

How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, who is a worm?

There the righteous might reason with him; so should I be delivered forever from my judge.

I would order my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments.

If he will contend with him, he cannot answer him one of a thousand.

How much less in them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed before the moth?

But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain you; how much less this house that I have built?

For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, and we should come together in trial.

Teach us what we shall say unto him; for we cannot order our speech because of darkness.
