| 13:1 | Lo, mine eye hath seen all this, mine ear hath heard and understood it. |
| 13:2 | What ye know, the same do I know also: I am not inferior unto you. |
| 13:3 | Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God. |
| 13:4 | But ye are forgers of lies, ye are all physicians of no value. |
| 13:5 | O that ye would altogether hold your peace! and it should be your wisdom. |
| 13:6 | Hear now my reasoning, and hearken to the pleadings of my lips. |
| 13:7 | Will ye speak wickedly for God? and talk deceitfully for him? |
| 13:8 | Will ye accept his person? will ye contend for God? |
| 13:9 | Is it good that he should search you out? or as one man mocketh another, do ye so mock him? |
| 13:10 | He will surely reprove you, if ye do secretly accept persons. |
| 13:11 | Shall not his excellency make you afraid? and his dread fall upon you? |
| 13:12 | Your remembrances are like unto ashes, your bodies to bodies of clay. |
| 13:13 | Hold your peace, let me alone, that I may speak, and let come on me what will. |
| 13:14 | Wherefore do I take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in mine hand? |
| 13:15 | Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him. |
| 13:16 | He also shall be my salvation: for an hypocrite shall not come before him. |
| 13:17 | Hear diligently my speech, and my declaration with your ears. |
| 13:18 | Behold now, I have ordered my cause; I know that I shall be justified. |
| 13:19 | Who is he that will plead with me? for now, if I hold my tongue, I shall give up the ghost. |
| 13:20 | Only do not two things unto me: then will I not hide myself from thee. |
| 13:21 | Withdraw thine hand far from me: and let not thy dread make me afraid. |
| 13:22 | Then call thou, and I will answer: or let me speak, and answer thou me. |
| 13:23 | How many are mine iniquities and sins? make me to know my transgression and my sin. |
| 13:24 | Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and holdest me for thine enemy? |
| 13:25 | Wilt thou break a leaf driven to and fro? and wilt thou pursue the dry stubble? |
| 13:26 | For thou writest bitter things against me, and makest me to possess the iniquities of my youth. |
| 13:27 | Thou puttest my feet also in the stocks, and lookest narrowly unto all my paths; thou settest a print upon the heels of my feet. |
| 13:28 | And he, as a rotten thing, consumeth, as a garment that is moth eaten. |
| 13:1 | הן כל ראתה עיני שׁמעה אזני ותבן׃ |
| 13:2 | כדעתכם ידעתי גם אני לא נפל אנכי מכם׃ |
| 13:3 | אולם אני אל שׁדי אדבר והוכח אל אל אחפץ׃ |
| 13:4 | ואולם אתם טפלי שׁקר רפאי אלל כלכם׃ |
| 13:5 | מי יתן החרשׁ תחרישׁון ותהי לכם לחכמה׃ |
| 13:6 | שׁמעו נא תוכחתי ורבות שׂפתי הקשׁיבו׃ |
| 13:7 | הלאל תדברו עולה ולו תדברו רמיה׃ |
| 13:8 | הפניו תשׂאון אם לאל תריבון׃ |
| 13:9 | הטוב כי יחקר אתכם אם כהתל באנושׁ תהתלו׃ |
| 13:10 | הוכח יוכיח אתכם אם בסתר פנים תשׂאון׃ |
| 13:11 | הלא שׂאתו תבעת אתכם ופחדו יפל עליכם׃ |
| 13:12 | זכרניכם משׁלי אפר לגבי חמר גביכם׃ |
| 13:13 | החרישׁו ממני ואדברה אני ויעבר עלי מה׃ |
| 13:14 | על מה אשׂא בשׂרי בשׁני ונפשׁי אשׂים בכפי׃ |
| 13:15 | הן יקטלני לא איחל אך דרכי אל פניו אוכיח׃ |
| 13:16 | גם הוא לי לישׁועה כי לא לפניו חנף יבוא׃ |
| 13:17 | שׁמעו שׁמוע מלתי ואחותי באזניכם׃ |
| 13:18 | הנה נא ערכתי משׁפט ידעתי כי אני אצדק׃ |
| 13:19 | מי הוא יריב עמדי כי עתה אחרישׁ ואגוע׃ |
| 13:20 | אך שׁתים אל תעשׂ עמדי אז מפניך לא אסתר׃ |
| 13:21 | כפך מעלי הרחק ואמתך אל תבעתני׃ |
| 13:22 | וקרא ואנכי אענה או אדבר והשׁיבני׃ |
| 13:23 | כמה לי עונות וחטאות פשׁעי וחטאתי הדיעני׃ |
| 13:24 | למה פניך תסתיר ותחשׁבני לאויב׃ |
| 13:25 | העלה נדף תערוץ ואת קשׁ יבשׁ תרדף׃ |
| 13:26 | כי תכתב עלי מררות ותורישׁני עונות נעורי׃ |
| 13:27 | ותשׂם בסד רגלי ותשׁמור כל ארחותי על שׁרשׁי רגלי תתחקה׃ |
| 13:28 | והוא כרקב יבלה כבגד אכלו עשׁ׃ |
| 13:1 | Lo, all -- hath mine eye seen, Heard hath mine ear, and it attendeth to it. |
| 13:2 | According to your knowledge I have known -- also I. I am not fallen more than you. |
| 13:3 | Yet I for the Mighty One do speak, And to argue for God I delight. |
| 13:4 | And yet, ye `are' forgers of falsehood, Physicians of nought -- all of you, |
| 13:5 | O that ye would keep perfectly silent, And it would be to you for wisdom. |
| 13:6 | Hear, I pray you, my argument, And to the pleadings of my lips attend, |
| 13:7 | For God do ye speak perverseness? And for Him do ye speak deceit? |
| 13:8 | His face do ye accept, if for God ye strive? |
| 13:9 | Is `it' good that He doth search you, If, as one mocketh at a man, ye mock at Him? |
| 13:10 | He doth surely reprove you, if in secret ye accept faces. |
| 13:11 | Doth not His excellency terrify you? And His dread fall upon you? |
| 13:12 | Your remembrances `are' similes of ashes, For high places of clay your heights. |
| 13:13 | Keep silent from me, and I speak, And pass over me doth what? |
| 13:14 | Wherefore do I take my flesh in my teeth? And my soul put in my hand? |
| 13:15 | Lo, He doth slay me -- I wait not! Only, my ways unto His face I argue. |
| 13:16 | Also -- He `is' to me for salvation, For the profane cometh not before Him. |
| 13:17 | Hear ye diligently my word, And my declaration with your ears. |
| 13:18 | Lo, I pray you, I have set in order the cause, I have known that I am righteous. |
| 13:19 | Who `is' he that doth strive with me? For now I keep silent and gasp. |
| 13:20 | Only two things, O God, do with me: Then from Thy face I am not hidden. |
| 13:21 | Thy hand put far off from me, And Thy terror let not terrify me. |
| 13:22 | And call Thou, and I -- I answer, Or -- I speak, and answer Thou me. |
| 13:23 | How many iniquities and sins have I? My transgression and my sin let me know. |
| 13:24 | Why dost Thou hide Thy face? And reckonest me for an enemy to Thee? |
| 13:25 | A leaf driven away dost Thou terrify? And the dry stubble dost Thou pursue? |
| 13:26 | For Thou writest against me bitter things, And causest me to possess iniquities of my youth: |
| 13:27 | And puttest in the stocks my feet, And observest all my paths, On the roots of my feet Thou settest a print, |
| 13:28 | And he, as a rotten thing, weareth away, As a garment hath a moth consumed him. |
