rsv@Job:13:1 @ "Lo, my eye has seen all this, my ear has heard and understood it.

rsv@Job:13:2 @ What you know, I also know; I am not inferior to you.

rsv@Job:13:3 @ But I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to argue my case with God.

rsv@Job:13:4 @ As for you, you whitewash with lies; worthless physicians are you all.

rsv@Job:13:5 @ Oh that you would keep silent, and it would be your wisdom!

rsv@Job:13:6 @ Hear now my reasoning, and listen to the pleadings of my lips.

rsv@Job:13:7 @ Will you speak falsely for God, and speak deceitfully for him?

rsv@Job:13:8 @ Will you show partiality toward him, will you plead the case for God?

rsv@Job:13:9 @ Will it be well with you when he searches you out? Or can you deceive him, as one deceives a man?

rsv@Job:13:10 @ He will surely rebuke you if in secret you show partiality.

rsv@Job:13:11 @ Will not his majesty terrify you, and the dread of him fall upon you?

rsv@Job:13:12 @ Your maxims are proverbs of ashes, your defenses are defenses of clay.

rsv@Job:13:13 @ "Let me have silence, and I will speak, and let come on me what may.

rsv@Job:13:14 @ I will take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in my hand.

rsv@Job:13:15 @ Behold, he will slay me; I have no hope; yet I will defend my ways to his face.

rsv@Job:13:16 @ This will be my salvation, that a godless man shall not come before him.

rsv@Job:13:17 @ Listen carefully to my words, and let my declaration be in your ears.

rsv@Job:13:18 @ Behold, I have prepared my case; I know that I shall be vindicated.

rsv@Job:13:19 @ Who is there that will contend with me? For then I would be silent and die.

rsv@Job:13:20 @ Only grant two things to me, then I will not hide myself from thy face:

rsv@Job:13:21 @ withdraw thy hand far from me, and let not dread of thee terrify me.

rsv@Job:13:22 @ Then call, and I will answer; or let me speak, and do thou reply to me.

rsv@Job:13:23 @ How many are my iniquities and my sins? Make me know my transgression and my sin.

rsv@Job:13:24 @ Why dost thou hide thy face, and count me as thy enemy?

rsv@Job:13:25 @ Wilt thou frighten a driven leaf and pursue dry chaff+?

rsv@Job:13:26 @ For thou writest bitter things against me, and makest me inherit the iniquities of my youth.

rsv@Job:13:27 @ Thou puttest my feet in the stocks, and watchest all my paths; thou settest a bound to the soles of my feet.

rsv@Job:13:28 @ Man wastes away like a rotten thing, like a garment that is moth-eaten.
