Job 13:13-23

13 Be quiet and give me a chance to speak, and let the results be what they will.

13 “Keep silent and let me speak; then let come to me what may.

14 I am ready to risk my life.

14 Why do I put myself in jeopardy and take my life in my hands?

15 I've lost all hope, so what if God kills me? I am going to state my case to him.

15 Though he slay me, yet will I hope in him; I will surely defend my ways to his face.

16 It may even be that my boldness will save me, since no wicked person would dare to face God.

16 Indeed, this will turn out for my deliverance, for no godless person would dare come before him!

17 Now listen to my words of explanation.

17 Listen carefully to what I say; let my words ring in your ears.

18 I am ready to state my case, because I know I am in the right.

18 Now that I have prepared my case, I know I will be vindicated.

19 Are you coming to accuse me, God? If you do, I am ready to be silent and die.

19 Can anyone bring charges against me? If so, I will be silent and die.

20 Let me ask for two things; agree to them, and I will not try to hide from you:

20 “Only grant me these two things, God, and then I will not hide from you:

21 stop punishing me, and don't crush me with terror.

21 Withdraw your hand far from me, and stop frightening me with your terrors.

22 Speak first, O God, and I will answer. Or let me speak, and you answer me.

22 Then summon me and I will answer, or let me speak, and you reply to me.

23 What are my sins? What wrongs have I done? What crimes am I charged with?

23 How many wrongs and sins have I committed? Show me my offense and my sin.
