Job 13:7-16 - Your Wisdom Misrepresents God

⁷ Is it, for God, ye would speak perversely? And, for him, would ye speak deceit: ⁸ Even, for him, would ye be partial? Or, for GOD, would ye so plead? ⁹ Would it be well, when he searched you out? Or, as one might jest with a mortal, would ye jest, with him? ¹⁰ He will, severely rebuke, you, if ye are secretly partial. ¹¹ Shall not, his majesty, overwhelm you? and, the dread of him, fall upon you? ¹² Are not your memorable sayings, proverbs of ashes? Breastworks of clay, your breastworks?

¹³ Quietly let me alone, that, I, may speak out, then let come on me, what may. ¹⁴ In any case, I will take up my flesh in my teeth, and, my life, will I put in my hand: ¹⁵ Lo! he may slay me, yet , for him, will I wait, - Nevertheless, my ways - unto his face, will I show to be right: ¹⁶ Even he, will be on my side - unto salvation, For, not before his face, shall any impious person come.
