Chap. X.
Iob scarse able to speake yet sheweth that there is no iniustice nor ignorance in
God, neither is his sinne the cause of so great afflictions. 9. Acknowledgeth
Gods loue and benefites towards himself. 15. and dreadeth his strict
iudgement.
1 My soule is wearie of my life, I wil let my speach passe
agaynst my self. I wil speake in the bitternes of my
soule.
2 I wil say to God: Condemne me not: tel me why thou
iudgest me so.
3 Doth it seeme good to thee, if thou note calumniate
me, and oppresse me the worke of thy handes, and helpe
the counsel of the impious?
4 Hast thou eies of flesh: or as
a man seeth, shalt thou also see?
5 Are thy daies as the daies
of man, and are thy yeares as the times of men:
6 That thou
sekest my iniquitie, and searchest my sinne?
7 And thou
mayst knowe that I haue done no impious thing, whereas
there is no man that can deliuer out of thy hand.
8 noteThy
handes haue made me, and framed me wholly round about,
and dost thou so sodenlie cast me downe headlong?
9 Remember
I besech thee that as clay thou madest me, and
into dust thou wilt bring me agayne.
10 Hast thou not as milke
milked me, and curded me as cheese?
11 With skinne and
flesh thou hast clothed me: with bones & sinowes thou hast
compacted me.
12 Life and mercie thou hast geuen to me, and
-- --
thy visitation hath kept my spirit.
13 Although thou conceale
these thinges in thy hart, yet I know that thou remembrest
al thinges.
14 If I haue sinned and thou hast spared me for an
houre: why doest thou not suffer me to be cleane from mine
iniquttie?
15 And if I shal be impious, woe is to me: and if iust,
I shal not lift vp my head, filled with affliction and miserie.
16 And for pride as a lionesse thou wilt take me, and returning
thou doest meruelously torment me.
17 Thou renewest thy
witnesses agaynst me, and multipliest thy wrath toward me,
and paynes doe warre vpon me.
18 Why didst thou bring me
forth out of the matrice? Who would God, I had beene consumed
that eye might not see me.
19 I had beene as if I were
not, caried from the wombe to the graue.
20 Shal not the
fewnes of my daies be ended shortly? suffer me note therfore,
that I may a litle lament my sorow:
21 Before I goe, and returne
not, vnto the darke land, that is couered with the
mist of death:
22 A land of miserie and darkenesse, where
is the shadow of death, and no order, but euerlasting horrour
inhabiteth.
