Job 13:15

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.

See now, I have put my cause in order, and I am certain that I will be seen to be right.

But I am certain that he who will take up my cause is living, and that in time to come he will take his place on the dust;

For he has knowledge of the way I take; after I have been tested I will come out like gold.

The sinner is overturned in his evil-doing, but the upright man has hope in his righteousness.

For I am certain that not death, or life, or angels, or rulers, or things present, or things to come, or powers,

Though you see that I am not an evil-doer; and there is no one who is able to take a man out of your hands?

Though my hands have done no violent acts, and my prayer is clean.

I would put my cause in order before him, and my mouth would be full of arguments

Let it be far from me! I will certainly not say that you are right! I will come to death before I give up my righteousness.

If the men of my tent did not say, Who has not had full measure of his meat?

Will he who is protesting give teaching to the Ruler of all? Let him who has arguments to put forward against God give an answer.

When our heart says that we have done wrong; because God is greater than our heart, and has knowledge of all things.
