Job 9:26-28

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²⁶ They are passed away like the swift rowboats made of reeds, or like the eagle that swoops down on the prey.

²⁷ If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will put off my sad countenance, and be of good cheer and brighten up,

²⁸ I become afraid of all my pains and sorrows [yet to come], for I know You will not pronounce me innocent [by removing them].
