Job 9:29 in Context — Job 9
27 Si je dis: Je veux oublier mes souffrances, Laisser ma tristesse, reprendre courage,
28 Je suis effrayé de toutes mes douleurs. Je sais que tu ne me tiendras pas pour innocent.
29 Je serai jugé coupable; Pourquoi me fatiguer en vain?
30 Quand je me laverais dans la neige, Quand je purifierais mes mains avec du savon,
31 Tu me plongerais dans la fange, Et mes vêtements m’auraient en horreur.
