Job 9:31 in Context — Job 9

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.

32 Il n’est pas un homme comme moi, pour que je lui réponde, Pour que nous allions ensemble en justice.

33 Il n’y a pas entre nous d’arbitre, Qui pose sa main sur nous deux.
