Job 13:13-19
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
13 “Let me have silence, and I will speak,
and let come on me what may.
14 I will take my flesh in my teeth
and put my life in my hand.[a](A)
15 See, he will kill me; I have no hope;[b]
but I will defend my ways to his face.(B)
16 This will be my salvation,
that the godless shall not come before him.(C)
17 Listen carefully to my words,
and let my declaration be in your ears.(D)
18 I have indeed prepared my case;
I know that I shall be vindicated.
19 Who is there who will contend with me?
For then I would be silent and die.(E)
Job 13:13-19
Holman Christian Standard Bible
13 Be quiet,[a] and I will speak.
Let whatever comes happen to me.
14 Why do I put myself at risk[b]
and take my life in my own hands?
15 Even if He kills me, I will hope in Him.[c]
I will still defend(A) my ways before Him.
16 Yes, this will result in my deliverance,
for no godless person(B) can appear before Him.
17 Pay close attention to my words;
let my declaration ring in your ears.
18 Now then, I have prepared my case;(C)
I know that I am right.
19 Can anyone indict me?
If so, I will be silent and die.
