Job 9:29
World English Bible (WEB)
I will be condemned. Why then do I labor in vain?
In context
27 If I say, ‘I will forget my complaint, I will put off my sad face, and cheer up,’
28 I am afraid of all my sorrows. I know that you will not hold me innocent.
29 I will be condemned. Why then do I labor in vain?
30 If I wash myself with snow, and cleanse my hands with lye,
31 yet you will plunge me in the ditch. My own clothes will abhor me.
