Psalm 86:2-3English Standard Version (ESV)
2 Preserve my soul/life, for I am godly;
save your servant, who trusts in you—you are my God.
3 Be gracious to me, O Lord,
for to you do I cry all the day.
save your servant, who trusts in you—you are my God.
3 Be gracious to me, O Lord,
for to you do I cry all the day.
Job 40:10-14English Standard Version (ESV)
10 “Adorn yourself with majesty and dignity;
clothe yourself with glory and splendor.
11 Pour out the over flowings of your anger,
and look on everyone who is proud and abase him.
12 Look on everyone who is proud and bring him low
and tread down the wicked where they stand.
13 Hide them all in the dust together;
bind their faces in the world below.[a]
14 Then will I also acknowledge to you
that your own right hand can save you.
clothe yourself with glory and splendor.
11 Pour out the over flowings of your anger,
and look on everyone who is proud and abase him.
12 Look on everyone who is proud and bring him low
and tread down the wicked where they stand.
13 Hide them all in the dust together;
bind their faces in the world below.[a]
14 Then will I also acknowledge to you
that your own right hand can save you.
Job questions God about his trials; as God answers Job realizes he has no more to say to God. Yet God does save us and our souls even or especially when we are in the "wrong!"
