Behold, in this thou art not just: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.

Why dost thou strive against him? for he giveth not account of any of his matters.*
14
For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not.

He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.*

He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong pain:
20
So that his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty meat.*
