“Because of (A)many oppressions they cry out;
They cry for help because of the arm (B)of many oppressors.
10 But (C)no one says, ‘Where is God my Maker,
Who (D)gives songs of praise in the night,
11 Who (E)teaches us more than the beasts of the earth
And makes us wiser than the birds of the heavens?’
12 There (F)they cry out, but He does not answer
Because of the pride of evil men.
13 Surely (G)God will not listen to [a]an empty cry,
Nor will the Almighty perceive it.
14 How much less when (H)you say you do not perceive Him,
The (I)case is before Him, and you must wait for Him!
15 And now, because He has not visited in His anger,
Nor has He acknowledged [b]transgression well,
16 So Job opens his mouth vainly;
He multiplies words (J)without knowledge.”

“Because(A) of the multitude of oppressions they cry out;
They cry out for help because of the arm of the mighty.
10 But no one says, (B)‘Where is God my Maker,
(C)Who gives songs in the night,
11 Who (D)teaches us more than the beasts of the earth,
And makes us wiser than the birds of heaven?’
12 (E)There they cry out, but He does not answer,
Because of the pride of evil men.
13 (F)Surely God will not listen to empty talk,
Nor will the Almighty regard it.
14 (G)Although you say you do not see Him,
Yet justice is before Him, and (H)you must wait for Him.
15 And now, because He has not (I)punished in His anger,
Nor taken much notice of folly,
16 (J)Therefore Job opens his mouth in vain;
He multiplies words without knowledge.”
