[ to plead]? |
Job 9:19
_ _ Umbreit takes these as the words of God, translating, “What availeth the might of the strong?” “Here (saith he) behold! what availeth justice? Who will appoint me a time to plead?” (So Jeremiah 49:19). The last words certainly apply better to God than to Job. The sense is substantially the same if we make “me” apply to Job. The “lo!” expresses God’s swift readiness for battle when challenged. |
Job 9:19
If — If my cause were to be decided by power. Is Strong — Stronger than I. Judgment — If I would contend with him in a way of right. Who — There is no superior judge that can summon him and me together. |
