Job 13:6-12
Modern English Version
6 Hear now my reasoning,
and listen to the pleadings of my lips.
7 Will you speak wickedly for God?
And talk deceitfully for Him?
8 Will you take His side?
Will you plead for God?
9 Is it good that He would search you out?
Or as one man mocks another, do you so mock Him?
10 He will surely rebuke you,
if you secretly show partiality.
11 Will not His excellence make you afraid,
and the dread of Him fall upon you?
12 Your reminders are parables made of ashes;
your answers are answers made of clay.
Job 13:6-12
21st Century King James Version
6 Hear now my reasoning, and hearken to the pleadings of my lips.
7 Will ye speak wickedly for God, and talk deceitfully for Him?
8 Will ye accept His person; will ye contend for God?
9 Is it good that He should search you out? Or as one man mocketh another, do ye so mock Him?
10 He will surely reprove you, if ye do secretly accept persons.
11 Shall not His excellency make you afraid, and His dread fall upon you?
12 Your remembrances are like unto ashes, your bodies to bodies of clay.
