King James Bible (Oxford) 1769

   

9:1Then Job answered and said,
9:2I know it is so of a truth: but how should man be just with God?
9:3If he will contend with him, he cannot answer him one of a thousand.
9:4He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength: who hath hardened himself against him, and hath prospered?
9:5Which removeth the mountains, and they know not: which overturneth them in his anger.
9:6Which shaketh the earth out of her place, and the pillars thereof tremble.
9:7Which commandeth the sun, and it riseth not; and sealeth up the stars.
9:8Which alone spreadeth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea.
9:9Which maketh Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of the south.
9:10Which doeth great things past finding out; yea, and wonders without number.
9:11Lo, he goeth by me, and I see him not: he passeth on also, but I perceive him not.
9:12Behold, he taketh away, who can hinder him? who will say unto him, What doest thou?
9:13If God will not withdraw his anger, the proud helpers do stoop under him.
9:14How much less shall I answer him, and choose out my words to reason with him?
9:15Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answer, but I would make supplication to my judge.
9:16If I had called, and he had answered me; yet would I not believe that he had hearkened unto my voice.
9:17For he breaketh me with a tempest, and multiplieth my wounds without cause.
9:18He will not suffer me to take my breath, but filleth me with bitterness.
9:19If I speak of strength, lo, he is strong: and if of judgment, who shall set me a time to plead?
9:20If I justify myself, mine own mouth shall condemn me: if I say, I am perfect, it shall also prove me perverse.
9:21Though I were perfect, yet would I not know my soul: I would despise my life.
9:22This is one thing, therefore I said it, He destroyeth the perfect and the wicked.
9:23If the scourge slay suddenly, he will laugh at the trial of the innocent.
9:24The earth is given into the hand of the wicked: he covereth the faces of the judges thereof; if not, where, and who is he?
9:25Now my days are swifter than a post: they flee away, they see no good.
9:26They are passed away as the swift ships: as the eagle that hasteth to the prey.
9:27If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will leave off my heaviness, and comfort myself:
9:28I am afraid of all my sorrows, I know that thou wilt not hold me innocent.
9:29If I be wicked, why then labour I in vain?
9:30If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands never so clean;
9:31Yet shalt thou plunge me in the ditch, and mine own clothes shall abhor me.
9:32For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, and we should come together in judgment.
9:33Neither is there any daysman betwixt us, that might lay his hand upon us both.
9:34Let him take his rod away from me, and let not his fear terrify me:
9:35Then would I speak, and not fear him; but it is not so with me.

King James Bible (Oxford) 1769

By the mid-18th century the wide variation in the various modernized printed texts of the Authorized Version, combined with the notorious accumulation of misprints, had reached the proportion of a scandal, and the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge both sought to produce an updated standard text. First of the two was the Cambridge edition of 1760, the culmination of twenty-years work by Francis Sawyer Parris, who died in May of that year. This 1760 edition was reprinted without change in 1762 and in John Baskerville's fine folio edition of 1763. This was effectively superseded by the 1769 Oxford edition, edited by Benjamin Blayney.
