Job 9:19

Revised Standard Version (RSV-CI)

If it is a contest of strength, behold him! If it is a matter of justice, who can summon him?

See the chapter Copy

For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength —who has hardened himself against him, and succeeded?—

Shall we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?

And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil.

Once God has spoken; twice have I heard this: that power belongs to God;

Oh, that I had one to hear me! (Here is my signature! let the Almighty answer me!) Oh, that I had the indictment written by my adversary!

and that to thee, O Lord, belongs steadfast love. For thou dost requite a man according to his work.
