JOB 9:17 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
Job 9:16Job 9:18
For he breaketh me with a tempest, and multiplieth my wounds without cause.
Job asserts that God crushes him with a tempest and multiplies his wounds without cause, suggesting that divine action is destructive and disproportionate. The phrase 'without cause' echoes the language of the heavenly council and emphasizes that the suffering has no moral justification. The multiplication of wounds suggests accumulation of suffering beyond what could be deserved.
