Verse
Job - ch 13 v 1 - 20
- Lo, mine eye hath seen all this, mine ear hath heard and understood it.
- What ye know, I know also: I am not inferior to you.
- But I will speak to the Almighty, and will find pleasure in reasoning with ùGod;
- For ye indeed are forgers of lies, ye are all physicians of no value.
- Oh that ye would be altogether silent! and it would be your wisdom.
- Hear now my defence, and hearken to the pleadings of my lips.
- Will ye speak unrighteously for ùGod? and for him speak deceit?
- Will ye accept his person? will ye contend for ùGod?
- Will it be well if he should search you out? or as one mocketh at a man, will ye mock at him?
- He will certainly reprove you, if ye do secretly accept persons.
- Shall not his excellency terrify you? and his dread fall upon you?
- Your memorable sayings are proverbs of ashes, your bulwarks are bulwarks of mire.
- Hold your peace from me, and I will speak, and let come on me what will!
- Wherefore should I take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in my hand?
- Behold, if he slay me, yet would I trust in him; but I will defend mine own ways before him.
- This also shall be my salvation, that a profane man shall not come before his face.
- Hear attentively my speech and my declaration with your ears.
- Behold now, I have ordered the cause; I know that I shall be justified.
- Who is he that contendeth with me? For if I were silent now, I should expire.
- Only do not two things unto me; then will I not hide myself from thee.
