< Job 13 >

1 There! all it has seen eye my it has heard ear my and it has understood it.
Lo, mine eye hath seen all [this], mine ear hath heard and understood it.
2 Like knowledge your I know also I not [am] falling I more than you.
What ye know, [the same] do I know also: I am not inferior unto you.
3 But I to [the] Almighty I will speak and to argue to God I desire.
Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God.
4 And but you [are] smearers of falsehood [are] physicians of worthlessness all of you.
But ye are forgers of lies, ye are all physicians of no value.
5 Who? will he give certainly you will be silent! and it may become for you wisdom.
Oh that ye would altogether hold your peace! and it should be your wisdom.
6 Listen to please argument my and [the] contentions of lips my pay attention to.
Hear now my reasoning, and hearken to the pleadings of my lips.
7 ¿ for God will you speak unrighteousness and for him will you speak? deceit.
Will ye speak unrighteously for God, and talk deceitfully for him?
8 ¿ Face his will you lift up! or? for God will you argue a case!
Will ye respect his person? will ye contend for God?
9 ¿ [will it be] good If he will examine you or? as deceives a person will you deceive him.
Is it good that he should search you out? or as one deceiveth a man, will ye deceive him?
10 Certainly he will rebuke you if in secrecy faces you will lift up!
He will surely reprove you, if ye do secretly respect persons.
11 ¿ Not majesty his will it terrify you and dread his will it fall? on you.
Shall not his excellency make you afraid, and his dread fall upon you?
12 Memorials your [are] proverbs of ash[es] [are] defenses of clay defenses your.
Your memorable sayings [are] proverbs of ashes, your defences [are] defences of clay.
13 Be silent from me so let me speak I and let it pass on me whatever.
Hold your peace, let me alone, that I may speak, and let come on me what wilt.
14 Concerning what? - will I take flesh my in teeth my and life my will I put? in palm my.
Wherefore should I take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in mine hand?
15 There! he will kill me (to him *Q(K)*) I will hope nevertheless ways my to face his I will argue.
Though he slay me, yet will I wait for him: nevertheless I will maintain my ways before him.
16 Also that of me [will be] for deliverance for not before him a godless [person] he will come.
This also shall be my salvation; for a godless man shall not come before him.
17 Listen completely [to] speech my and declaration my [be] in ears your.
Hear diligently my speech, and let my declaration be in your ears.
18 Here! please I have arranged a case I know that I I am in [the] right.
Behold now, I have ordered my cause; I know that I am righteous.
19 Who? that will he conduct a case with me if now I will keep silent and I may expire.
Who is he that will contend with me? for now shall I hold my peace and give up the ghost.
20 Only two [things] may not you do with me then from before you not I will hide myself.
Only do not two things unto me, then will I not hide myself from thy face:
21 Hand your from on me put far away and dread your may not it terrify me.
Withdraw thine hand far from me; and let not thy terror make me afraid.
22 And call and I I will answer or let me speak and respond to me.
Then call thou, and I will answer; or let me speak, and answer thou me.
23 How many? of me [are] iniquities and sins transgression my and sin my make known to me.
How many are mine iniquities and sins? make me to know my transgression and my sin.
24 Why? face your do you hide and do you consider? me to an enemy of you.
Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and holdest me for thine enemy?
25 ¿ A leaf driven about will you terrify and chaff dry will you pursue?
Wilt thou harass a driven leaf? and wilt thou pursue the dry stubble?
26 For you write on me bitter things and you cause to inherit me [the] iniquities of youth my.
For thou writest bitter things against me, and makest me to inherit the iniquities of my youth:
27 And you put in the stock[s] - feet my so you may watch all paths my on [the] roots of feet my you make a mark.
Thou puttest my feet also in the stocks, and markest all my paths; thou drawest thee a line about the soles of my feet:
28 And he like rottenness he wears out like a garment [which] it eats it a moth.
Though I am like a rotten thing that consumeth, like a garment that is moth-eaten.
