    Job 13
    •   Truly, my eye has seen all this, word of it has come to my ear, and I have knowledge of it.
    •   The same things are in my mind as in yours; I am equal to you.
    •   But I would have talk with the Ruler of all, and my desire is to have an argument with God.
    •   But you put a false face on things; all your attempts to put things right are of no value.
    •   If only you would keep quiet, it would be a sign of wisdom!
    •   Give ear to the argument of my mouth, and take note of the words of my lips.
    •   Will you say in God's name what is not right, and put false words into his mouth?
    •   Will you have respect for God's person in this cause, and put yourselves forward as his supporters?
    •   Will it be good for you to be searched out by him, or have you the thought that he may be guided into error like a man?
    • 10   He will certainly put you right, if you have respect for persons in secret.
    • 11   Will not his glory put you in fear, so that your hearts will be overcome before him?
    • 12   Your wise sayings are only dust, and your strong places are only earth.
    • 13   Keep quiet, and let me say what is in my mind, whatever may come to me.
    • 14   I will take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in my hand.
    • 15   Truly, he will put an end to me; I have no hope; but I will not give way in argument before him;
    • 16   And that will be my salvation, for an evil-doer would not come before him,
    • 17   Give ear with care to my words, and keep what I say in your minds.
    • 18   See now, I have put my cause in order, and I am certain that I will be seen to be right.
    • 19   Is any one able to take up the argument against me? If so, I would keep quiet and give up my breath.
    • 20   Only two things do not do to me, then I will come before your face:
    • 21   Take your hand far away from me; and let me not be overcome by fear of you.
    • 22   Then at the sound of your voice I will give answer; or let me put forward my cause for you to give me an answer.
    • 23   What is the number of my evil-doings and my sins? give me knowledge of them.
    • 24   Why is your face veiled from me, as if I was numbered among your haters?
    • 25   Will you be hard on a leaf in flight before the wind? will you make a dry stem go more quickly on its way?
    • 26   For you put bitter things on record against me, and send punishment on me for the sins of my early years;
    • 27   And you put chains on my feet, watching all my ways, and making a limit for my steps;
    • 28   Though a man comes to nothing like a bit of dead wood, or like a robe which has become food for the worm.
