1 “I am disgusted with my own life; I will express my complaint freely; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul. 2 “I will say to God, ‘Do not condemn me; Let me know why You contend with me. 3 ‘Is it right for You indeed to oppress, To reject the work of Your hands, And to look favorably on the plan of the wicked? 4 ‘Do You have eyes of flesh? Or do You see as mankind sees? 5 ‘Are Your days like the days of a mortal, Or Your years like a man’s year, 6 That You should search for my guilt And carefully seek my sin? 7 ‘According to Your knowledge I am indeed not guilty, Yet there is no one to save me from Your hand. 8 ‘Your hands fashioned and made me altogether, Yet would You destroy me? 9 ‘Remember that You have made me as clay; Yet would You turn me into dust again?
