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.

I will sayH559 unto GodH433, Do not condemnH7561 me; shewH3045 me wherefore thou contendestH7378 with me.
He tearethH2963 me in his wrathH639, who hatethH7852 me: he gnashethH2786 upon me with his teethH8127; mine enemyH6862 sharpenethH3913 his eyesH5869 upon me.
Oh thatH5414 I were as in monthsH3391 pastH6924, as in the daysH3117 when GodH433 preservedH8104 me;
He hath also kindledH2734 his wrathH639 against me, and he countethH2803 me unto him as one of his enemiesH6862.
When his candleH5216 shinedH1984 upon my headH7218, and when by his lightH216 I walkedH3212 through darknessH2822; {candle: or, lamp}
Thou art becomeH2015 cruelH393 to me: with thy strongH6108 handH3027 thou opposestH7852 thyself against me. {become…: Heb. turned to be cruel} {thy…: Heb. the strength of thy hand}
And he saidH559, I will hideH5641 my faceH6440 from them, I will seeH7200 what their endH319 shall be: for they are a very frowardH8419 generationH1755, childrenH1121 in whom is no faithH529.
Oh thatH5414 one would hearH8085 me! behold, my desireH8420 is, that the AlmightyH7706 would answerH6030 me, and that mine adversaryH376+H7379 had writtenH3789 a bookH5612. {my…: or, my sign is that the Almighty will}
Why standestH5975 thou afar offH7350, O LORDH3068? why hidestH5956 thou thyself in timesH6256 of troubleH6869?
To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. How long wilt thou forgetH7911 me, O LORDH3068? for everH5331? how long wilt thou hideH5641 thy faceH6440 from me? {chief…: or, overseer}
Then saidH559 SamuelH8050, Wherefore then dost thou askH7592 of me, seeing the LORDH3068 is departedH5493 from thee, and is become thine enemyH6145?
Wherefore hidestH5641 thou thy faceH6440, and forgettestH7911 our afflictionH6040 and our oppressionH3906?
The LordH136 was as an enemyH341: he hath swallowed upH1104 IsraelH3478, he hath swallowed upH1104 all her palacesH759: he hath destroyedH7843 his strong holdsH4013, and hath increasedH7235 in the daughterH1323 of JudahH3063 mourningH8386 and lamentationH592.
I call to remembranceH2142 my songH5058 in the nightH3915: I communeH7878 with mine own heartH3824: and my spiritH7307 made diligent searchH2664.
Will the LordH136 cast offH2186 for everH5769? and willH3254 he be favourableH7521 no more?
Is his mercyH2617 clean goneH656 for everH5331? doth his promiseH562 failH1584 for evermoreH1755+H1755? {for evermore: Heb. to generation and generation?}
Hath GodH410 forgottenH7911 to be graciousH2589? hath he in angerH639 shut upH7092 his tender merciesH7356? SelahH5542.
