32 “For (A)He is not a man, as I am,
That I may answer Him,
And that we should go to court together.
33 (B)Nor is there any mediator between us,
Who may lay his hand on us both.
34 (C)Let Him take His rod away from me,
And do not let dread of Him terrify me.
35 Then I would speak and not fear Him,
But it is not so with me.

32 “For[a] he is not a mortal like me that I can answer him,
that we can come to trial together.[b]
33 There is no arbiter between us
that he might lay his hand on both of us.
34 May he remove his rod from me,
and let his dread not terrify me;
35 then I would speak and not fear him,[c]
for in myself I am not fearful.[d]
