Job 9:23-25
Common English Bible

23 If calamity suddenly kills,
    he mocks at the slaying[a] of innocents.
24 The earth is handed over to the wicked;
    he covers the faces of its judges.
    If not God, then who does?

Job wants an arbitrator

25 My days are swifter than a runner;
    they flee and don’t experience good.
