14 So I cannot argue with God. I would not know what to say to him.
15 I am innocent, but I cannot give him an answer. All I can do is beg my Judge for mercy.
16 Even if I called and he answered, I cannot believe he would listen to me.
17 He would just send storms to crush me. He would give me more wounds for no reason.
18 He would not let me catch my breath again. He would just give me more trouble.
19 I cannot defeat God. He is too powerful! I cannot take him to court for justice. Who could force him to come?
20 I am innocent, but anything I say makes me seem guilty. I am innocent, but if I speak, my mouth proves me wrong.
