Job 9:30

World English Bible (WEB)

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

In context

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.

32 For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, that we should come together in judgment.
