The whole earth is in the hands of the wicked,and God blinds the eyes of the judges.If he’s not the one who does it, who is?

“God is not a mortal like me,so I cannot argue with him or take him to trial.33If only there were a mediator between us,someone who could bring us together.34The mediator could make God stop beating me,and I would no longer live in terror of his punishment.35Then I could speak to him without fear,but I cannot do that in my own strength.

“I am disgusted with my life.Let me complain freely.My bitter soul must complain.2I will say to God, ‘Don’t simply condemn me—tell me the charge you are bringing against me.3What do you gain by oppressing me?Why do you reject me, the work of your own hands,while smiling on the schemes of the wicked?

Lord God my Father,

You are in control even when I see so much evil, allow me to rest in your peace and not try to do your work for you, soften my heart and give me discernment to do your will above my own. I am a broken sinner made worthy only by your grace.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
