Job 13:13-19 - Be Quiet While I Speak

¹³ "Hold your tongues now, and let me speak, for there is something come into my mind. ¹⁴ Wherefore do I bear my flesh in my teeth, and put my soul in my hands? ¹⁵ Lo, though he slay me, yet will I put my trust in him. But if I shew and reprove mine own ways in his sight, ¹⁶ he shall make me whole: And why? There may no hypocrite come before him. ¹⁷ Hear my words, and ponder my sayings with your ears. ¹⁸ Behold, now have I prepared my judgment, and know that I shall be found righteous. ¹⁹ What is he that will go to law with me? For if I hold my tongue, I shall die.
