Job 13:20-28 - Job Argues His Case With God

²⁰ Only, two things, do thou not with me, then, from thy face, will I not hide me: - ²¹ Thy hand - from off me, take thou far away, and, thy terror, let it not startle me! ²² Then call thou, and, I, will answer, Or I will speak, and reply thou unto me. ²³ How many are mine iniquities and sins? My transgression and my sin, let me know! ²⁴ Wherefore, thy face, shouldst thou hide? Or count me, as an enemy to thee? ²⁵ A driven leaf, wilt thou cause to tremble? Or, dry stubble, wilt thou pursue? ²⁶ For thou writest, against me, bitter things, and dost make me inherit the iniquities of my youth; ²⁷ And thou dost put - in the stocks - my feet, and observest all my paths, Against the roots of my feet, thou dost cut out a bound;

²⁸ And, a man himself, as a rotten thing, weareth out, as a garment which the moth hath eaten.
