Job 13:13-23

13 Be quiet, because I want to speak. Let whatever may happen to me [happen]!

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

14 I am biting off more than I can chew and taking my life in my own hands.

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

15 If God would kill me, I would have no hope [left]. Nevertheless, I will defend my behavior to his face.

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

16 This also will be my salvation because no godless person could face him.

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

17 "Listen carefully to my words. Hear my declaration.

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

18 I have prepared my case. I know that I will be declared righteous.

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

19 Who can make a case against me? If someone could, I'd be silent and die.

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

20 "Please don't do two things to me so that I won't have to hide from you:

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

21 Stop oppressing me. Don't let your terror frighten me.

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

22 Then call, and I'll answer. Otherwise, I'll speak, and you'll answer me.

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

23 How many crimes and sins have I committed? Make me aware of my disobedience and my sin.

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