Job 13:6-12

Amplified Bible

⁶ 
“Please hear my argument
And listen to the pleadings of my lips.
⁷ 
“Will you speak what is unjust for God,
And speak what is deceitful for Him?
⁸ 
“Will you show partiality for Him [and be unjust to me so that you may gain favor with Him]?
Will you contend and plead for God?
⁹ 
“Will it be well for you when He investigates you [and your tactics against me]?
Or will you deceive Him as one deceives a man?
¹⁰ 
“He will surely reprimand you
If you secretly show partiality.
¹¹ 
“Will not His majesty terrify you,
And will not the dread of Him fall upon you?
¹² 
“Your memorable sayings are [worthless, merely] proverbs of ashes;
Your defenses are defenses of [crumbling] clay.
