Chap. XIII.
Of their owne wordes Iob confuteth his aduersaries, that they haue spoken that
which they know not. 13. defendeth his owne innocencie. 22. desiring of
God, if he be afflicted for secrete sinnes, that he may know them.
1 Behold mine eie hath seene al these thinges, and mine
eare hath heard, & I haue vnderstood euerie thing.
2 According
to your knowledge I also do know: neither am I inferiour
to you.
3 But yet I wil speake to the Omnipotent,
and I couet to dispute with God.
4 First shewing you to
be forgers of lying, and mainteyners of peruerse opinions.
5 And would God ye would hold your peace, that you
might be thought to be wise men.
6 Heare ye therfore
my correptions, and attend the iudgement of my lippes.
7 Hath God neede of your lye, that for him you speake guiles.
8 Doe you take his person, and doe you endeuour note to iudge
for God?
9 Or shal it please him from whom nothing can be
concealed, or shal he be deceiued as a man, with your fraudulent
dealings?
10 He shal reproue you, because in secrete you
take his person.
11 Forthwith as he shal moue himself, he shal
truble you: and his terrour shal come violently vpon you.
12 Your memorie shal be compared to ashes, and your neckes
shal be brought into clay.
13 Hold your peace a litle while,
-- --
that I may speake, what soeuer my minde shal prompt me.
14 noteWhy doe I teare my flesh with my teeth, & carie my soule
in my handes?
15 Although he shal kil me, I wil note trust in
him: but yet I wil reproue my waies in his sight.
16 And he shal
be my sauiour: for no hypocrite shal come in his sight.
17 Heare ye my word, and receiue the obscure sayings with
your eares.
18 If I shal be iudged, note I know that I shal be
found iust.
19 What is he that wil be iudged with me? let him
come: why am I consumed holding my peace?
20 Two things
only do not to me, and then shal I not be hid from thy face:
21 Make thy hand far from me, and let not thy feare terrifie
me.
22 Cal me, and I wil answer thee: or els I wil speake, and
doe thou answer me.
23 How great iniquites and sinnes I haue,
my wicked deedes and my offences note shewe thou me.
24 Why
hidest thou thy face, and thinkest me thine enemy?
25 Against
the leafe, that is violently taken with the wind, thou shewest
thy might, and persecutest drie stuble.
26 For thou writest
bitternes against me, and wilt consume me with the sinnes
of my youth.
27 Thou hast put my feete in the stockes, and
hast obserued al my pathes, and hast considered the steppes
of my feete.
28 Who as rottenes am to be consumed, and as a
garment, that is eaten of the moth.
