'Claim' in the Bible
Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it; let clouds dwell upon it; let darkeners of the day terrify it.
“If you say, ‘How shall we [continue to] persecute him?’And ‘What pretext for a case against him can we find [since we claim the root of these afflictions is found in him]?’
“If I have despised the claim of my male or female slavesWhen they filed a complaint against me,
So do not claim, “We have found wisdom;let God deal with him, not man.”
Now this is Job's claim: "Even though I'm innocent, God has stopped treating me righteously.
"Are you saying that it's just for you to claim, "I'm more righteous than God?'
Indeed would you annul my justice and condemn me, just so you can claim that you're righteous?
“Who has first given to Me that I should repay him?Whatever is under the whole heaven is Mine. [Who can have a claim against Me who made the unmastered beast?]
“He looks on everything that is high [without terror];He is monarch over all the sons of pride. [And now, Job, who are you who does not dare to disturb the beast, yet who dares resist Me, the beast’s creator? Everything under the heavens is Mine; therefore, who can have a claim against God?]”
