Job 10:14-16

The Voice

¹⁴     If I sin, You see it, watching ever so closely,
        and You do not acquit me of my guilt.
¹⁵     If I am wicked, woe is me;
        even if I am innocent, I cannot take a chance and lift my head
    Because I’m gorged with disgrace.
        Gaze on my misery!
¹⁶     If I do raise my head,
        then like a lion, You hunt me;
    Like a night sky turned threatening,
        You unfold Your power against me so that others marvel;
