Lo, mine eyeH5869 hath seenH7200 all this, mine earH241 hath heardH8085 and understoodH995 it.
What ye knowH1847, the same do I knowH3045 also: I am not inferiorH5307 unto you.
SurelyH199 I would speakH1696 to the AlmightyH7706, and I desireH2654 to reasonH3198 with GodH410.
ButH199 ye are forgersH2950 of liesH8267, ye are all physiciansH7495 of no valueH457.
O thatH5414 ye would altogetherH2790 hold your peaceH2790! and it should be your wisdomH2451.
HearH8085 now my reasoningH8433, and hearkenH7181 to the pleadingsH7379 of my lipsH8193.
Will ye speakH1696 wickedlyH5766 for GodH410? and talkH1696 deceitfullyH7423 for him?
Will ye acceptH5375 his personH6440? will ye contendH7378 for GodH410?
Is it goodH2895 that he should search you outH2713? or as one manH582 mockethH2048 another, do ye so mockH2048 him?
He will surelyH3198 reproveH3198 you, if ye do secretlyH5643 acceptH5375 personsH6440.
Shall not his excellencyH7613 make you afraidH1204? and his dreadH6343 fallH5307 upon you?
Your remembrancesH2146 are likeH4912 unto ashesH665, your bodiesH1354 to bodiesH1354 of clayH2563.
Hold your peaceH2790, let me alone, that I may speakH1696, and let comeH5674 on me what will. {Hold…: Heb. Be silent from me}
Wherefore do I takeH5375 my fleshH1320 in my teethH8127, and putH7760 my lifeH5315 in mine handH3709?
ThoughH2005 he slayH6991 me, yet will I trustH3176 in him: but I will maintainH3198 mine own waysH1870 beforeH6440 him. {maintain: Heb. prove, or, argue}
He also shall be my salvationH3444: for an hypocriteH2611 shall not comeH935 beforeH6440 him.
HearH8085 diligentlyH8085 my speechH4405, and my declarationH262 with your earsH241.
Behold now, I have orderedH6186 my causeH4941; I knowH3045 that I shall be justifiedH6663.
Who is he that will pleadH7378 with me? for now, if I hold my tongueH2790, I shall give up the ghostH1478.
Only doH6213 not twoH8147 things unto me: then will I not hideH5641 myself from theeH6440.
WithdrawH7368 thine handH3709 farH7368 from me: and let not thy dreadH367 make me afraidH1204.
Then callH7121 thou, and I will answerH6030: or let me speakH1696, and answerH7725 thou me.
How many are mine iniquitiesH5771 and sinsH2403? make me to knowH3045 my transgressionH6588 and my sinH2403.
Wherefore hidestH5641 thou thy faceH6440, and holdestH2803 me for thine enemyH341?
Wilt thou breakH6206 a leafH5929 driven to and froH5086? and wilt thou pursueH7291 the dryH3002 stubbleH7179?
For thou writestH3789 bitter thingsH4846 against me, and makest me to possessH3423 the iniquitiesH5771 of my youthH5271.
Thou puttestH7760 my feetH7272 also in the stocksH5465, and lookest narrowlyH8104 unto all my pathsH734; thou settest a printH2707 upon the heelsH8328 of my feetH7272. {lookest…: Heb. observest} {heels: Heb. roots}
And he, as a rotten thingH7538, consumethH1086, as a garmentH899 that is mothH6211 eatenH398.

For he is not a manH376, as I am, that I should answerH6030 him, and we should comeH935 togetherH3162 in judgmentH4941.
Gird upH247 now thy loinsH2504 like a manH1397; for I will demandH7592 of thee, and answerH3045 thou me. {answer…: Heb. make me know}
Behold, I am vileH7043; what shall I answerH7725 thee? I will layH7760 mine handH3027 uponH3926 my mouthH6310.
OnceH259 have I spokenH1696; but I will not answerH6030: yea, twiceH8147; but I will proceed no furtherH3254.
Who is he that hidethH5956 counselH6098 without knowledgeH1847? therefore have I utteredH5046 that I understoodH995 not; things too wonderfulH6381 for me, which I knewH3045 not.
HearH8085, I beseech thee, and I will speakH1696: I will demandH7592 of thee, and declareH3045 thou unto me.
I have heardH8085 of thee by the hearingH8088 of the earH241: but now mine eyeH5869 seethH7200 thee.
Wherefore I abhorH3988 myself, and repentH5162 in dustH6083 and ashesH665.
