Job 9:27 in context

  1. 25“Now my days are swifter than a runner.
    They flee away. They see no good.
  2. 26They have passed away as the swift ships,
    as the eagle that swoops on the prey.
  3. 27If I say, ‘I will forget my complaint,
    I will put off my sad face, and cheer up;’
  4. 28I am afraid of all my sorrows,
    I know that you will not hold me innocent.
  5. 29I will be condemned.
    Why then do I labor in vain?
