Job 9:18
World English Bible (WEB)
He will not allow me to catch my breath, but fills me with bitterness.
In context
16 If I had called, and he had answered me, yet I wouldn’t believe that he listened to my voice.
17 For he breaks me with a storm, and multiplies my wounds without cause.
18 He will not allow me to catch my breath, but fills me with bitterness.
19 If it is a matter of strength, behold, he is mighty! If of justice, ‘Who,’ says he, ‘will summon me?’
20 Though I am righteous, my own mouth will condemn me. Though I am blameless, it will prove me perverse.
