How Many Questions Did Job Ask God?

HomeChristianity and the BibleHow Many Questions Did Job Ask God?

In another article I outline the questions that God asked Job. In response, M Johnson wanted to know how many questions Job asked God. Well…not nearly as many. Here’s the much-shorter list.

  • Does it please you to oppress me,
    to spurn the work of your hands,
    while you smile on the plans of the wicked?
  • Do you have eyes of flesh?
    Do you see as a mortal sees?
  • Are your days like those of a mortal
    or your years like those of a strong man,
    that you must search out my faults
    and probe after my sin—
    though you know that I am not guilty
    and that no one can rescue me from your hand?
  • Your hands shaped me and made me.
    Will you now turn and destroy me?
  • Remember that you molded me like clay.
    Will you now turn me to dust again?
  • Did you not pour me out like milk
    and curdle me like cheese,
    clothe me with skin and flesh
    and knit me together with bones and sinews?
  • Why then did you bring me out of the womb?
  • Are not my few days almost over?
  • Give me, O God, the pledge you demand.
    Who else will put up security for me?
  • Have I not wept for those in trouble?
    Has not my soul grieved for the poor?
  • I am unworthy – how can I reply to you?
