# ***JOB 13***

---

*Job Continues: Still I Will Hope in God*

\[1\] “Behold, my eye has seen all this,

my ear has heard and understood it.

\[2\] What you know, I also know;

I am not inferior to you.

\[3\] But I would speak to the Almighty,

and I desire to argue my case with God.

\[4\] As for you, you whitewash with lies;

worthless physicians are you all.

\[5\] Oh that you would keep silent,

and it would be your wisdom!

\[6\] Hear now my argument

and listen to the pleadings of my lips.

\[7\] Will you speak falsely for God

and speak deceitfully for him?

\[8\] Will you show partiality toward him?

Will you plead the case for God?

\[9\] Will it be well with you when he searches you out?

Or can you deceive him, as one deceives a man?

\[10\] He will surely rebuke you

if in secret you show partiality.

\[11\] Will not his majesty terrify you,

and the dread of him fall upon you?

\[12\] Your maxims are proverbs of ashes;

your defenses are defenses of clay.

\[13\] “Let me have silence, and I will speak,

and let come on me what may.

\[14\] Why should I take my flesh in my teeth

and put my life in my hand?

\[15\] Though he slay me, I will hope in him;

yet I will argue my ways to his face.

\[16\] This will be my salvation,

that the godless shall not come before him.

\[17\] Keep listening to my words,

and let my declaration be in your ears.

\[18\] Behold, I have prepared my case;

I know that I shall be in the right.

\[19\] Who is there who will contend with me?

For then I would be silent and die.

\[20\] Only grant me two things,

then I will not hide myself from your face:

\[21\] withdraw your hand far from me,

and let not dread of you terrify me.

\[22\] Then call, and I will answer;

or let me speak, and you reply to me.

\[23\] How many are my iniquities and my sins?

Make me know my transgression and my sin.

\[24\] Why do you hide your face

and count me as your enemy?

\[25\] Will you frighten a driven leaf

and pursue dry chaff?

\[26\] For you write bitter things against me

and make me inherit the iniquities of my youth.

\[27\] You put my feet in the stocks

and watch all my paths;

you set a limit for the soles of my feet.

\[28\] Man wastes away like a rotten thing,

like a garment that is moth-eaten. (ESV)
