Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
| 13:1 | Behold, my eye has seen all this; my ear has heard and understood it. |
| 13:2 | As you know, I also know; I do not fall short of you. |
| 13:3 | Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to argue with God. |
| 13:4 | But you are imputers of lies; you are all worthless healers. |
| 13:5 | Oh that you would stop speaking entirely; and it would be your wisdom! |
| 13:6 | Hear now my reasoning, and listen to the arguments of my lips. |
| 13:7 | Would you speak unrighteously for God and speak deceitfully for Him? |
| 13:8 | Will you lift up His face, or will you contend for God? |
| 13:9 | Or as one man mocks another, do you mock Him? Is it good that He should search you out? |
| 13:10 | He will surely reprove you if you secretly lift up faces. |
| 13:11 | Shall not His highness make you afraid, and His dread fall on you? |
| 13:12 | Your remembered sayings are like ashes; surely your backs are backs of clay. |
| 13:13 | Be silent from me, that I may speak; and let what will pass over me. |
| 13:14 | Why do I take my flesh in my teeth and put my life in my hand? |
| 13:15 | Behold, He will cut me off; I will not wait, but I will justify my ways before His face. |
| 13:16 | He also is my salvation, for an ungodly one shall not come before Him. |
| 13:17 | Listen carefully to my words, and let what I say be in your ears; |
| 13:18 | Behold now, I have set my cause in order; I know that I shall be justified. |
| 13:19 | Who is he who will strive with me? For then I would be quiet and die. |
| 13:20 | Only two things do not do to me, O God ; then I will not hide myself from Your face: |
| 13:21 | Remove Your palm from me, and let not Your terror make me afraid. |
| 13:22 | Then call, and I will answer; or let me speak, and reply to me. |
| 13:23 | How many are my iniquities and sins? Make me know my transgressions and my sin. |
| 13:24 | Why do You hide Your face and count me for Your enemy? |
| 13:25 | Will You terrify a leaf driven to and fro? Will you pursue the dry stubble? |
| 13:26 | For You write bitter things against me and make me inherit the sins of my youth. |
| 13:27 | You also put my feet in the stocks, and watch all my paths; You set a limit on the soles of my feet. |
| 13:28 | And he wears out like a rotten thing, like a garment which a moth eats. |
