Job 13:13-19
Legacy Standard Bible
13 “(A)Be silent before me so that I may speak;
Then let come on me what may.
14 Why should I take my flesh in my teeth
And (B)put my life in my [a]hands?
15 [b](C)Though He slay me,
I will hope in Him.
Nevertheless I (D)will argue my ways [c]before Him.
16 This also will be my (E)salvation,
For (F)a godless man may not come before His presence.
17 [d]Listen carefully to my words,
And let my declaration fill your ears.
18 Behold now, I have (G)arranged my case for justice;
I know that (H)I will be declared righteous.
19 (I)Who will contend with me?
For now I am silent and (J)will breathe my last.
Job 13:13-19
Common English Bible
Job will speak out
13 Be quiet and I will speak,
come what may.
14 For what reason will I take my flesh in my teeth,
put my life in jeopardy?
15 He will slay me; I’m without hope;[a]
I will surely prove my way to his face.
16 Also this will be my vindication,
that a godless person won’t come before him.
17 Listen closely to my words
so that my remarks will be in your ears.
Against God
18 Look, I have laid out my case;
I know that I’m innocent.
19 Who would dare contend with me,
for then I would be quiet and die.
