Book 18 : JOB - Chapter 013
013:001
What ye know, the same do I know also: I am not inferior unto
you
013:002
Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason
with God
013:003
But ye are forgers of lies, ye are all physicians of no value
013:004
O that ye would altogether hold your peace! and it should be
your wisdom
013:005
Hear now my reasoning, and hearken to the pleadings of my
lips
013:006
Will ye speak wickedly for God? and talk deceitfully for him
013:007
Will ye accept his person? will ye contend for God
013:008
Is it good that he should search you out? or as one man
mocketh another, do ye so mock him
013:009
He will surely reprove you, if ye do secretly accept persons
013:010
Shall not his excellency make you afraid? and his dread fall
upon you
013:011
Your remembrances are like unto ashes, your bodies to bodies
of clay
013:012
Hold your peace, let me alone, that I may speak, and let come
on me what will
013:013
Wherefore do I take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in
mine hand
013:014
Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will
maintain mine own ways before him
013:015
He also shall be my salvation: for an hypocrite shall not come
before him
013:016
Hear diligently my speech, and my declaration with your ears
013:017
Behold now, I have ordered my cause; I know that I shall be
justified
013:018
Who is he that will plead with me? for now, if I hold my
tongue, I shall give up the ghost
013:019
Only do not two things unto me: then will I not hide myself
from thee
013:020
Withdraw thine hand far from me: and let not thy dread make me
afraid
013:021
Then call thou, and I will answer: or let me speak, and answer
thou me
013:022
How many are mine iniquities and sins? make me to know my
transgression and my sin
013:023
Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and holdest me for thine
enemy
013:024
Wilt thou break a leaf driven to and fro? and wilt thou pursue
the dry stubble
013:025
For thou writest bitter things against me, and makest me to
possess the iniquities of my youth
013:026
Thou puttest my feet also in the stocks, and lookest narrowly
unto all my paths; thou settest a print upon the heels of my
feet
013:027
And he, as a rotten thing, consumeth, as a garment that is
moth eaten
