욥기 13장 NASB
- 1 "Behold my eye has seen all this My ear has heard and understood it.
- 2 "What you know I also know; I am not inferior to you.
- 3 "But I would speak to the Almighty And I desire to argue with God.
- 4 "But you smear with lies; You are all worthless physicians.
- 5 "O that you would be completely silent And that it would become your wisdom!
- 6 "Please hear my argument And listen to the contentions 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? Will you contend for God?
- 9 "Will it be well when He examines you? Or will you deceive Him as one deceives a man?
- 10 "He will surely reprove you If you secretly show partiality.
- 11 "Will not His majesty terrify you And the dread of Him fall on you?
- 12 "Your memorable sayings are proverbs of ashes Your defenses are defenses of clay.
- 13 "Be silent before me so that I may speak; Then let come on me what may.
- 14 "Why should I take my flesh in my teeth And put my life in my hands?
- 15 "Though He slay me I will hope in Him. Nevertheless I will argue my ways before Him.
- 16 "This also will be my salvation For a godless man may not come before His presence.
- 17 "Listen carefully to my speech And let my declaration fill your ears.
- 18 "Behold now I have prepared my case; I know that I will be vindicated.
- 19 "Who will contend with me? For then I would be silent and die.
- 20 "Only two things do not do to me Then I will not hide from Your face:
- 21 Remove Your hand from me And let not the dread of You terrify me.
- 22 "Then call and I will answer; Or let me speak then reply to me.
- 23 "How many are my iniquities and sins? Make known to me my rebellion and my sin.
- 24 "Why do You hide Your face And consider me Your enemy?
- 25 "Will You cause a driven leaf to tremble? Or will You pursue the dry chaff?
- 26 "For You write bitter things against me And make me to inherit the iniquities of my youth.
- 27 "You put my feet in the stocks And watch all my paths; You set a limit for the soles of my feet
- 28 While I am decaying like a rotten thing Like a garment that is moth-eaten.
