Job

Chapter 13

1 Lo, my eye has seen all this, my ear has heard and understood it.

2 What you know, I know also; I am not inferior to you.

3 But I would speak to the Almighty, and with my reproof would I reason with God.

4 But you are forgers of lies; you are all healers of no value.

5 O that you would altogether keep silent! And it would serve you for wisdom.

6 Hear now my admonition, and hearken to the pleadings of my lips.

7 Will you speak wickedly against God? And talk deceitfully against him?

8 Will you respect his person? Will you contend with him?

9 Is it good for you that he should search you out? Or as you are judged by men, would you be judged by him?

10 He will surely reprove you, if you will show partiality.

11 His excellency shall seek vengeance of you, and his terror will fall upon you.

12 Remember that your power is from the earth, and your dwelling place is of clay.

13 Hold your peace, let me alone, that I may speak also, and tell everything that has come upon me.

14 Why am I so afflicted, and why is my life exposed to danger?

15 Though he slay me, yet will I look for him; because my ways are before him.

16 He also shall be my Saviour; for a hypocrite shall not come before him.

17 Listen diligently to my speech, and I will relate my declaration in your presence.

18 Behold now, I am also pleading my cause; and I know that I am innocent.

19 Who is he that will contend with me? For now I will keep silent and be at rest.

20 Only two things do not let depart from me; then I will not turn aside from thee:

21 Do not withdraw thy help from me; and let not thy dread terrify me.

22 Then call thou me, and I will answer; or let me speak, and answer thou me.

23 How many are my iniquities and sins? Make me to know my transgressions and my sins.

24 Wherefore dost thou hide thy face from me, and considerest me as thine enemy?

25 Wilt thou tread upon a fallen leaf? And wilt thou pursue the dry grass in the air?

26 For thou decreest chastisement against me, and makest me remember the iniquities of my youth;

27 Thou puttest my feet also in the stocks, and watchest all my ways; thou seest the imprints of my feet.

28 Yet a man is like a worn-out waterskin, and a garment that is moth-eaten.

Chapter 13

1 Lo,2005 mine eye5869 hath seen7200 all3605 this, mine ear241 hath heard8085 and understood995 it.

2 What ye know,1847 the same do I589 know3045 also:1571 I595 am not3808 inferior5307 unto4480 you.

3 Surely199 I589 would speak1696 to413 the Almighty,7706 and I desire2654 to reason3198 with413 God.410

4 But199 ye859 are forgers2950 of lies,8267 ye are all3605 physicians7495 of no value.457

5 O that4130 ye would5414 altogether hold your peace!2790 2790 and it should be1961 your wisdom.2451

6 Hear8085 now4994 my reasoning,8433 and hearken7181 to the pleadings7379 of my lips.8193

7 Will ye speak1696 wickedly5766 for God?410 and talk1696 deceitfully7423 for him?

8 Will ye accept5375 his person?6440 will ye contend7378 for God?410

9 Is it good2896 that3588 he should search you out?2713 853 or518 as one man582 mocketh2048 another, do ye so mock2048 him?

10 He will surely reprove3198 3198 you, if518 ye do secretly5643 accept5375 persons.6440

11 Shall not3808 his excellency7613 make you afraid?1204 and his dread6343 fall5307 upon5921 you?

12 Your remembrances2146 are like4912 unto ashes,665 your bodies1354 to bodies1354 of clay.2563

13 Hold your peace,2790 let me alone,4480 that I589 may speak,1696 and let come5674 on5921 me what4100 will.

14 Wherefore5921 4100 do I take5375 my flesh1320 in my teeth,8127 and put7760 my life5315 in mine hand?3709

15 Though2005 he slay6991 me, yet will I trust3176 in him: but389 I will maintain3198 mine own ways1870 before413 6440 him.

16 He1931 also1571 shall be my salvation:3444 for3588 a hypocrite2611 shall not3808 come935 before6440 him.

17 Hear diligently8085 8085 my speech,4405 and my declaration262 with your ears.241

18 Behold2009 now,4994 I have ordered6186 my cause;4941 I know3045 that3588 I589 shall be justified.6663

19 Who4310 is he1931 that will plead7378 with5978 me? for3588 now,6258 if I hold my tongue,2790 I shall give up the ghost.1478

20 Only389 do6213 not408 two8147 things unto5978 me: then227 will I not3808 hide myself5641 from4480 6440 thee.

21 Withdraw7368 thine hand3709 far from4480 5921 me: and let not408 thy dread367 make me afraid.1204

22 Then call7121 thou, and I595 will answer:6030 or176 let me speak,1696 and answer7725 thou me.

23 How4100 many are mine iniquities5771 and sins?2403 make me to know3045 my transgression6588 and my sin.2403

24 Wherefore4100 hidest5641 thou thy face,6440 and holdest2803 me for thine enemy?341

25 Wilt thou break6206 a leaf5929 driven to and fro?5086 and wilt thou pursue7291 the dry3002 stubble?7179

26 For3588 thou writest3789 bitter things4846 against5921 me, and makest me to possess3423 the iniquities5771 of my youth.5271

27 Thou puttest7760 my feet7272 also in the stocks,5465 and lookest narrowly8104 unto all3605 my paths;734 thou settest a print2707 upon5921 the heels8328 of my feet.7272

28 And he,1931 as a rotten thing,7538 consumeth,1086 as a garment899 that is moth6211 eaten.398
