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 “Behold 2005, my eye 5869 has seen 7200 all 3605 [this], My ear 241 has heard 8085 and understood 995 it.

 13:2 “What 1847 you know 3045 I also 1571 know 1847; I am not inferior 5307 to you.

 13:3 ¶ “But I would speak 1696 to the Almighty 7706b, And I desire 2654a to argue 3198 with God 410.

 13:4 “But you smear 2950 with lies 8267; You are all 3605 worthless 457 physicians 7495.

 13:5 “O 4310 that you would be completely 2790b silent 2790b, And that it would become 1961 your wisdom 2451!

 13:6 “Please 4994 hear 8085 my argument 8433b And listen 7181 to the contentions 7379 of my lips 8193.

 13:7 “Will you speak 1696 what 5767b is unjust 5767b for God 410, And speak 1696 what 7423a is deceitful 7423a for Him?

 13:8 “Will you show 5375 partiality 6440 5375 for Him? Will you contend 7378 for God 410?

 13:9 “Will it be well 2896a when 3588 He examines 2713 you? Or 518 will you deceive 8524 Him as one deceives 8524 a man 582?

 13:10 “He will surely 3198 reprove 3198 you If 518 you secretly 5643a show 5375 partiality 6440 5375.

 13:11 “Will not His majesty 7613 terrify 1204 you, And the dread 6343 of Him fall 5307 on you?

 13:12 “Your memorable 2146 sayings 2146 are proverbs 4912 of ashes 665, Your defenses 1354 are defenses 1354 of clay 2563a.

 13:13 ¶ “Be silent 2790b before 4480 me so that I may speak 1696; Then let come 5674a on me what 4100 may.

 13:14 “Why 5921 4100 should I take 5375 my flesh 1320 in my teeth 8127 And put 7760 my life 5315 in my hands 3709?

 13:15 “Though 2005 He slay 6991 me, I will hope 3176 in Him. Nevertheless 389 I will argue 3198 my ways 1870 before 413 6440 Him.

 13:16 “This 1931 also 1571 will be my salvation 3444, For a godless 2611 man 2611 may not come 935 before His presence 6440.

 13:17 “Listen 8085 carefully 8085 to my speech 4405, And let my declaration 262 [fill] your ears 241.

 13:18 “Behold 2009 now 4994, I have prepared 6186a my case 4941; I know 3045 that I will be vindicated 6663.

 13:19 “Who 4310 will contend 7378 with me? For then 6258 I would be silent 2790b and die 1478.

 13:20 ¶ “Only 389 two 8147 things 8147 do not do 6213a to me, Then 227 I will not hide 5641 from Your face 6440:

 13:21 Remove 7368 Your hand 3709 from me, And let not the dread 367 of You terrify 1204 me.

 13:22 “Then call 7121, and I will answer 6030a; Or 176 let me speak 1696, then reply 7725 to me.

 13:23 “How 4100 many 4100 are my iniquities 5771 and sins 2403b? Make 3045 known 3045 to me my rebellion 6588 and my sin 2403b.

 13:24 “Why 4100 do You hide 5641 Your face 6440 And consider 2803 me Your enemy 340?

 13:25 “Will You cause 6206 a driven 5086 leaf 5929 to tremble 6206? Or will You pursue 7291 the dry 3002 chaff 7179?

 13:26 “For You write 3789 bitter 4846 things 4846 against 5921 me And make me to inherit 3423 the iniquities 5771 of my youth 5271.

 13:27 “You put 7760 my feet 7272 in the stocks 5465 And watch 8104 all 3605 my paths 734; You set 2707 a limit 2707 for the soles 8328 of my feet 7272,

 13:28 While I am decaying 1086 like a rotten 7538 thing 7538, Like a garment 899b that is moth-eaten 6211 398.
