Job 6:29

New Century Version

Change your mind; do not be unfair; think again, because my innocence is being questioned.

See the chapter Copy

How terrible it will be for me if I am guilty! Even if I am right, I cannot lift my head. I am full of shame and experience only pain.

My friends all laugh at me when I call on God and expect him to answer me; they laugh at me even though I am right and innocent!

See, I have prepared my case, and I know I will be proved right.

“But, all of you, come and try again! I do not find a wise person among you.

Then know that God has wronged me and pulled his net around me.

But God knows the way that I take, and when he has tested me, I will come out like gold.

“Job says, ‘I am not guilty, and God has refused me a fair trial.

Then Job answered the Lord:

So now I hate myself; I will change my heart and life. I will sit in the dust and ashes.”

You will again see the difference between good and evil people, between those who serve God and those who don’t.
