Иов 13
Библия, синодално издание
13 Ето, всичко това окото ми видя, ухото ми чу и забележи за себе си.
2 (A)Колкото знаете вие, зная и аз: не съм по-долу от вас.
3 Но аз към Вседържителя бих искал да говоря, желал бих с Бога да се препирам.
4 (B)А вие сте ковачи на лъжи; всички вие сте безполезни лекари.
5 (C)О, да бяхте само мълчали! Това би ви се сметнало за мъдрост.
6 Изслушайте моите разсъждения и вникнете във възражението на устата ми.
7 Трябваше ли да говорите заради Бога неправда и заради Него да говорите лъжа?
8 Трябваше ли да бъдете лицеприятни към Него и за Бога тъй да се препирате?
9 Добре ли ще бъде, кога Той ви изпитва? Ще Го измамите ли, както измамват човек?
10 (D)Той ще ви строго накаже, ако и скришно лицемерите.
11 Нима величието Му не ви плаши, и страх от Него не ви обзема?
12 Вашите напомняния приличат на пепел; вашите огради са огради глинени.
13 Млъкнете пред мен, и аз ще говоря, каквото и да ме постигне.
14 За какво ми е да си хапя тялото със зъби и да си турям душата в ръка?
15 Ето, Той ме убива, но аз ще се надявам: желал бих само да удържа пътищата си пред лицето Му.
16 (E)И това ми е вече за оправдание, понеже лицемер не ще се яви пред лицето Му.
17 Изслушайте внимателно думите ми и обясненията ми с ушите си.
18 Ето, започнах съдба; зная, че ще бъда прав.
19 Кой е в сила да ми надвие? Защото тогава ще млъкна и ще изпусна дух.
20 Само две неща не прави с мене, и тогава аз не ще се укривам от Твоето лице;
21 (F)отмахни от мене ръката Си, и Твоят ужас да ме не разтърсва.
22 (G)Тогава викай, и аз ще отговарям; или аз ще говоря, а Ти ми отговаряй.
23 Колко са пороците и греховете ми? Покажи ми беззаконието ми и греха ми.
24 (H)За какво скриваш лицето Си и ме считаш Твой враг?
25 Не мачкаш ли Ти откъснат лист, и не гониш ли суха сламчица?
26 (I)Защото Ти пишеш против мене горчила и ми вменяваш греховете на младостта ми,
27 туряш в клада нозете ми и дебнеш всичките ми пътища, – тичаш по дирите на нозете ми,
28 (J)подир мене, който тлея като гнилеж, като дреха, сядена от молец.
Job 13
Good News Translation
13 1-2 Everything you say, I have heard before.
I understand it all; I know as much as you do.
I'm not your inferior.
3 But my dispute is with God, not you;
I want to argue my case with him.
4 You cover up your ignorance with lies;
you are like doctors who can't heal anyone.
5 Say nothing, and someone may think you are wise!
6 Listen while I state my case.
7 Why are you lying?
Do you think your lies will benefit God?
8 Are you trying to defend him?
Are you going to argue his case in court?
9 If God looks at you closely, will he find anything good?
Do you think you can fool God the way you fool others?
10 Even though your prejudice is hidden,
he will reprimand you,
11 and his power will fill you with terror.
12 Your proverbs are as useless as ashes;
your arguments are as weak as clay.
13 Be quiet and give me a chance to speak,
and let the results be what they will.
14 I am[a] ready to risk my life.
15 I've lost all hope, so what if God kills me?
I am going to state my case to him.
16 It may even be that my boldness will save me,
since no wicked person would dare to face God.
17 Now listen to my words of explanation.
18 I am ready to state my case,
because I know I am in the right.
19 Are you coming to accuse me, God?
If you do, I am ready to be silent and die.
20 Let me ask for two things; agree to them,
and I will not try to hide from you:
21 stop punishing me, and don't crush me with terror.
22 Speak first, O God, and I will answer.
Or let me speak, and you answer me.
23 What are my sins? What wrongs have I done?
What crimes am I charged with?
24 Why do you avoid me?
Why do you treat me like an enemy?
25 Are you trying to frighten me? I'm nothing but a leaf;
you are attacking a piece of dry straw.
26 You bring bitter charges against me,
even for what I did when I was young.
27 (A)You bind chains on my feet;
you watch every step I take,
and even examine my footprints.
28 As a result, I crumble like rotten wood,
like a moth-eaten coat.

Job 13
New King James Version
Job Defends Himself
13 “Behold, my eye has seen all this,
My ear has heard and understood it.
2 (A)What you know, I also know;
I am not inferior to you.
3 (B)But I would speak to the Almighty,
And I desire to reason with God.
4 But you forgers of lies,
(C)You are all worthless physicians.
5 Oh, that you would be silent,
And (D)it would be your wisdom!
6 Now hear my reasoning,
And heed the pleadings of my lips.
7 (E)Will you speak [a]wickedly for God,
And talk deceitfully for Him?
8 Will you show partiality for Him?
Will you contend for God?
9 Will it be well when He searches you out?
Or can you mock Him as one mocks a man?
10 He will surely rebuke you
If you secretly show partiality.
11 Will not His [b]excellence make you afraid,
And the dread of Him fall upon you?
12 Your platitudes are proverbs of ashes,
Your defenses are defenses of clay.
13 “Hold[c] your peace with me, and let me speak,
Then let come on me what may!
14 Why (F)do I take my flesh in my teeth,
And put my life in my hands?
15 (G)Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him.
(H)Even so, I will defend my own ways before Him.
16 He also shall be my salvation,
For a (I)hypocrite could not come before Him.
17 Listen carefully to my speech,
And to my declaration with your ears.
18 See now, I have prepared my case,
I know that I shall be (J)vindicated.
19 (K)Who is he who will contend with me?
If now I hold my tongue, I perish.
Job’s Despondent Prayer
20 “Only(L) two things do not do to me,
Then I will not hide myself from You:
21 (M)Withdraw Your hand far from me,
And let not the dread of You make me afraid.
22 Then call, and I will (N)answer;
Or let me speak, then You respond to me.
23 How many are my iniquities and sins?
Make me know my transgression and my sin.
24 (O)Why do You hide Your face,
And (P)regard me as Your enemy?
25 (Q)Will You frighten a leaf driven to and fro?
And will You pursue dry stubble?
26 For You write bitter things against me,
And (R)make me inherit the iniquities of my youth.
27 (S)You put my feet in the stocks,
And watch closely all my paths.
You [d]set a limit for the [e]soles of my feet.
28 “Man[f] decays like a rotten thing,
Like a garment that is moth-eaten.
