Job 9:25-31

21st Century King James Version

²⁵ “Now my days are swifter than a courier; they flee away, they see no good.

²⁶ They are passed away as the swift ships, as the eagle that hasteneth to the prey.

²⁷ If I say, ‘I will forget my complaint, I will leave off my heaviness and comfort myself,’

²⁸ I am afraid of all my sorrows; I know that Thou wilt not hold me innocent.

²⁹ If I be wicked, why then labor I in vain?

³⁰ If I wash myself with snow water and make my hands never so clean,

³¹ yet shalt Thou plunge me in the ditch, and mine own clothes shall abhor me.
