SEV Biblia, Chapter 9:19
Si habláramos de su potencia, fuerte por cierto es; si de su juicio, ¿quién me emplazará?
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 9:19
Verse 19. If I speak of strength, lo, he is strong ] Human wisdom, power, and influence avail nothing before him. Who shall set me a time ] yndy[wy ym mi yoideni, "Who would be a witness for me?" or, Who would dare to appear in my behalf? Almost all the terms in this part of the speech of Job, ver. 11-24, are forensic or juridical, and are taken from legal processes and pleadings in their gates or courts of justice.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 14-21 - Job is still righteous in his own eyes, ch. 32:1, and this answer though it sets forth the power and majesty of God, implies that the question between the afflicted and the Lord of providence, is question of might, and not of right; and we begin to discover the evi fruits of pride and of a self-righteous spirit. Job begins to manifes a disposition to condemn God, that he may justify himself, for which he is afterwards reproved. Still Job knew so much of himself, that he durst not stand a trial. If we say, We have no sin, we not only deceiv ourselves, but we affront God; for we sin in saying so, and give the lie to the Scripture. But Job reflected on God's goodness and justic in saying his affliction was without cause.
