13 Be quiet,[a] and I will speak.
Let whatever comes happen to me.
14 I will put[b] myself at risk[c]
and take my life in my own hands.
15 Even if he kills me, I will hope in him.[d]
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.
