1 Lo H2005 , mine eye H5869 hath seen H7200 all H3605 this , mine ear H241 hath heard H8085 and understood H995 it.
2 What ye know, H1847 the same do I H589 know H3045 also: H1571 I H595 am not H3808 inferior H5307 unto H4480 you.
3 Surely H199 I H589 would speak H1696 to H413 the Almighty, H7706 and I desire H2654 to reason H3198 with H413 God. H410
4 But H199 ye H859 are forgers H2950 of lies, H8267 ye are all H3605 physicians H7495 of no value. H457
5 O that H4130 ye would H5414 altogether hold your peace H2790 H2790 ! and it should be H1961 your wisdom. H2451
6 Hear H8085 now H4994 my reasoning, H8433 and hearken H7181 to the pleadings H7379 of my lips. H8193
7 Will ye speak H1696 wickedly H5766 for God H410 ? and talk H1696 deceitfully H7423 for him?
8 Will ye accept H5375 his person H6440 ? will ye contend H7378 for God H410 ?
9 Is it good H2896 that H3588 he should search you out H2713 H853 ? or H518 as one man H582 mocketh H2048 another , do ye so mock H2048 him?
10 He will surely reprove H3198 H3198 you, if H518 ye do secretly H5643 accept H5375 persons. H6440
11 Shall not H3808 his excellency H7613 make you afraid H1204 ? and his dread H6343 fall H5307 upon H5921 you?
12 Your remembrances H2146 are like H4912 unto ashes, H665 your bodies H1354 to bodies H1354 of clay. H2563
13 Hold your peace, H2790 let me alone, H4480 that I H589 may speak, H1696 and let come H5674 on H5921 me what H4100 will .
14 Wherefore H5921 H4100 do I take H5375 my flesh H1320 in my teeth, H8127 and put H7760 my life H5315 in mine hand H3709 ?
15 Though H2005 he slay H6991 me , yet will I trust H3176 in him: but H389 I will maintain H3198 mine own ways H1870 before H413 H6440 him.
16 He H1931 also H1571 shall be my salvation: H3444 for H3588 a hypocrite H2611 shall not H3808 come H935 before H6440 him.
17 Hear diligently H8085 H8085 my speech, H4405 and my declaration H262 with your ears. H241
18 Behold H2009 now, H4994 I have ordered H6186 my cause; H4941 I know H3045 that H3588 I H589 shall be justified. H6663
19 Who H4310 is he H1931 that will plead H7378 with H5978 me? for H3588 now, H6258 if I hold my tongue, H2790 I shall give up the ghost. H1478
20 Only H389 do H6213 not H408 two H8147 things unto H5978 me: then H227 will I not H3808 hide myself H5641 from H4480 H6440 thee.
21 Withdraw H7368 thine hand H3709 far from H4480 H5921 me : and let not H408 thy dread H367 make me afraid. H1204
22 Then call H7121 thou , and I H595 will answer: H6030 or H176 let me speak, H1696 and answer H7725 thou me.
23 How H4100 many are mine iniquities H5771 and sins H2403 ? make me to know H3045 my transgression H6588 and my sin. H2403
24 Wherefore H4100 hidest H5641 thou thy face, H6440 and holdest H2803 me for thine enemy H341 ?
25 Wilt thou break H6206 a leaf H5929 driven to and fro H5086 ? and wilt thou pursue H7291 the dry H3002 stubble H7179 ?
26 For H3588 thou writest H3789 bitter things H4846 against H5921 me , and makest me to possess H3423 the iniquities H5771 of my youth. H5271
27 Thou puttest H7760 my feet H7272 also in the stocks, H5465 and lookest narrowly H8104 unto all H3605 my paths; H734 thou settest a print H2707 upon H5921 the heels H8328 of my feet. H7272
28 And he, H1931 as a rotten thing, H7538 consumeth, H1086 as a garment H899 that is moth H6211 eaten. H398
