- “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.

- 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.
