Job 13
Authorized King James Version (1769) with AI Commentary
1Lo, mine eye hath seen all this, mine ear hath heard and understood it.🔗🔍
2What ye know, the same do I know also: I am not inferior unto you.🔗🔍
3Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God.🔗🔍
4But ye are forgers of lies, ye are all physicians of no value.🔗🔍
5O that ye would altogether hold your peace! and it should be your wisdom.🔗🔍
6Hear now my reasoning, and hearken to the pleadings of my lips.🔗🔍
7Will ye speak wickedly for God? and talk deceitfully for him?🔗🔍
8Will ye accept his person? will ye contend for God?🔗🔍
9Is it good that he should search you out? or as one man mocketh another, do ye so mock him?🔗🔍
10He will surely reprove you, if ye do secretly accept persons.🔗🔍
11Shall not his excellency make you afraid? and his dread fall upon you?🔗🔍
12Your remembrances are like unto ashes, your bodies to bodies of clay.🔗🔍
13Hold your peace, let me alone, that I may speak, and let come on me what will.🔗🔍
14Wherefore do I take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in mine hand?🔗🔍
15Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.🔗🔍
16He also shall be my salvation: for an hypocrite shall not come before him.🔗🔍
17Hear diligently my speech, and my declaration with your ears.🔗🔍
18Behold now, I have ordered my cause; I know that I shall be justified.🔗🔍
19Who is he that will plead with me? for now, if I hold my tongue, I shall give up the ghost.🔗🔍
20Only do not two things unto me: then will I not hide myself from thee.🔗🔍
21Withdraw thine hand far from me: and let not thy dread make me afraid.🔗🔍
22Then call thou, and I will answer: or let me speak, and answer thou me.🔗🔍
23How many are mine iniquities and sins? make me to know my transgression and my sin.🔗🔍
24Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and holdest me for thine enemy?🔗🔍
25Wilt thou break a leaf driven to and fro? and wilt thou pursue the dry stubble?🔗🔍
26For thou writest bitter things against me, and makest me to possess the iniquities of my youth.🔗🔍
27Thou puttest my feet also in the stocks, and lookest narrowly unto all my paths; thou settest a print upon the heels of my feet.🔗🔍
28And he, as a rotten thing, consumeth, as a garment that is moth eaten.🔗🔍
