13:1 Loe, mine eye hath seene all this, mine eare hath heard and vnderstood it. 13:2 What yee know, the same doe I know also, I am not inferiour vnto you. 13:3 Surely I would speake to the Almighty, & I desire to reason with God. 13:4 But ye are forgers of lies, yee are all Physicians of no value. 13:5 O that you would altogether hold your peace, & it should be your wisdome. 13:6 Heare now my reasoning, and hearken to the pleadings of my lips. 13:7 Wil you speake wickedly for God and talke deceitfully for him 13:8 Will ye accept his person Will yee contend for God 13:9 Is it good that hee should search you out or as one man mocketh another, doe ye so mocke him 13:10 He will surely reprooue you, if yee doe secretly accept persons. 13:11 Shall not his excellencie make you afraid and his dread fall vpon you 13:12 Your remembrances are like vnto ashes, your bodies to bodies of clay. 13:13 Hold your peace, let me alone that I may speake, and let come on me what will. 13:14 Wherefore doe I take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in mine hand 13:15 Though hee slay mee, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintaine mine owne wayes before him. 13:16 Hee also shall be my saluation: for an hypocrite shall not come before him. 13:17 Heare diligently my speach, and my declaration with your eares. 13:18 Behold now, I haue ordered my cause, I know that I shall be iustified. 13:19 Who is hee that will plead with me for now if I hold my tongue, I shall giue vp the ghost. 13:20 Only doe not two things vnto me: then will I not hide my selfe from thee. 13:21 Withdrawe thine hand far from me: and let not thy dread make mee afraid. 13:22 Then call thou, and I will answere: or let me speake, and answere thou mee. 13:23 How many are mine iniquities and sinnes make mee to knowe my transgression, and my sinne. 13:24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and holdest me for thine enemie 13:25 Wilt thou breake a leafe driuen to and fro and wilt thou pursue the drie stubble 13:26 For thou writest bitter things against mee, and makest me to possesse the iniquities of my youth. 13:27 Thou puttest my feete also in the stockes, and lookest narrowly vnto all my pathes; thou settest a print vpon the heeles of my feete. 13:28 And hee, as a rotten thing consumeth, as a garment that is moth-eaten.
