1902 Rotherham's Emphasized Bible (EBR)
Job 13
1 Job reproveth his friends of partiality. 14 He professeth his confidence in God, 20 and intreateth to know his own sins, and God's purpose in afflicting him.

13:1 ¶
Lo! all [this], hath mine own eye seen,Mine ear hath heard and understood it:

13:2
Just as ye know, I too, know, I, fall not short, of you.

13:3
But indeed, I, unto the Almighty, would speak, and, to direct my argument unto GOD, would I be well pleased.

13:4
For, in truth, ye, do besmear with falsehood, Worthless physicians, all of you!

13:5
Oh that ye would, altogether hold your peace, and it should serve you for wisdom!

13:6
Hear, I pray you, the argument of my mouth, and, to the pleadings of my lips, give heed:

13:7
Is it, for God, ye would speak perversely? And, for him, would ye speak deceit:

13:8
Even, for him, would ye be partial? Or, for GOD, would ye [so] plead?

13:9
Would it be well, when he searched you out? Or, as one might jest with a mortal, would ye jest, with him?

13:10
He will, severely rebuke, you, if ye are secretly partial.

13:11
Shall not, his majesty, overwhelm you? and, the dread of him, fall upon you?

13:12
Are not your memorable sayings, proverbs of ashes? Breastworks of clay, your breastworks?

13:13 ¶
Quietly let me alone, that, I, may speak out, then let come on me, what may.

13:14
In any case, I will take up my flesh in my teeth, and, my life, will I put in my hand:

13:15
Lo! he may slay me, [yet], for him, will I wait,Nevertheless, my waysunto his face, will I show to be right:

13:16
Even he, will be on my sideunto salvation, For, not before his face, shall any impious person come.

13:17
Hear ye patiently my speech, and be my declaration in your ears.

13:18
Lo! I pray you, I have set forth in order a plea, I know that, I, shall be found right.

13:19
Who is it that shall contend with me? For, now, if I should hold my peace, why! I should breathe my last!

13:20
Only, two things, do thou not with me, then, from thy face, will I not hide me:

13:21
Thy handfrom off me, take thou far away, and, thy terror, let it not startle me!

13:22
Then call thou, and, I, will answer, Or I will speak, and reply thou unto me.

13:23 ¶
How many are mine iniquities and sins? My transgression and my sin, let me know!

13:24
Wherefore, thy face, shouldst thou hide? Or count me, as an enemy to thee?

13:25
A driven leaf, wilt thou cause to tremble? Or, dry stubble, wilt thou pursue?

13:26
For thou writest, against me, bitter things, and dost make me inherit the iniquities of my youth;

13:27
And thou dost putin the stocksmy feet, and observest all my paths, Against the roots of my feet, thou dost cut out a bound;

13:28
And, a man himself, as a rotten thing, weareth out, as a garment which the moth hath eaten.
