Bible Read Job 9

Job 9:29

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

Since I am already found guilty, why should I labor in vain?

In context

27 If I were to say, ‘I will forget my complaint and change my expression and smile,’

28 I would still dread all my sufferings; I know that You will not acquit me.

29 Since I am already found guilty, why should I labor in vain?

30 If I should wash myself with snow and cleanse my hands with lye,

31 then You would plunge me into the pit, and even my own clothes would despise me.
