Job 13:1-5
New American Standard Bible
Job Says His Friends’ Proverbs Are Ashes
13 “(A)Behold, my eye has seen all this,
My ear has heard and understood it.
2 (B)What you know I also know;
I am not inferior to you.
3 “But (C)I would speak to [a]the Almighty,
And I desire to (D)argue with God.
4 But you (E)smear me with lies;
You are all (F)worthless physicians.
5 Oh that you would (G)be completely silent,
And that it would become your wisdom!
