Job 9:18 in Context — Job 9

16 Que si yo le invocase, y él me respondiese, aun no creeré que haya escuchado mi voz.

17 Porque me ha quebrado con tempestad, y ha aumentado mis heridas sin causa.

18 No me ha concedido que tome mi aliento; mas hame hartado de amarguras.

19 Si [habláremos] de [su] potencia, fuerte por cierto es; si de juicio, ¿quién me emplazará?

20 Si yo me justificare, me condenará mi boca; si [me dijere] perfecto, esto me hará inicuo.
