Job 13:6-12
Legacy Standard Bible
6 Please hear my argument
And give heed to the contentions of my lips.
7 Will you (A)speak what is unrighteous for God,
And speak what is deceitful for Him?
8 Will you (B)show partiality for Him?
Will you contend for God?
9 Will it be well when He examines you?
Or (C)will you deceive Him as one deceives a man?
10 He will surely reprove you
If you secretly (D)show partiality.
11 Will not (E)His exaltedness terrify you,
And the dread of Him fall on you?
12 Your memorable sayings are proverbs of ashes;
Your defenses are defenses of clay.
Job 13:6-12
Common English Bible
6 Hear my teaching
and pay attention to the arguments of my lips.
7 Will you speak injustice for God,
speak deceit on his behalf?
8 Will you be partial
or contend for God?
9 Will it go well when he searches you,
or can you fool him as you fool people?
10 He will certainly correct you
if you’ve been secretly partial.
11 Wouldn’t his majesty scare you
and dread of him fall on you?
12 Your old sayings are proverbs made of ashes,
your sayings defenses made of clay.
