JOB Chap. 9. Vers. 16, 17, 18. If I had called, and he had answered me, yet would I not believe that he had hearkened unto my voice. For he breaketh me with a tempest, and multiplieth my wounds without cause. He will not suffer me to take my breath, but filleth me with bitterness.

This holy man having abased himself in the sense of his own inability and unrighteousness before the Lord, and disclaimed the least intendment of contending or disputing with him (as was seen in the former context) now confirms it by a further supposition, in the 16, 17, 18. verses, and so forward. As if he had said, Ye shall find I am so far from wording it with God, or standing upon mine own justification with him (though I have pleaded mine integrity before you my friends) that I here make this hypothesis or supposition, If I had called, and he had answered, yet would I not believe that he had hearkened unto my voice.
