13. Be quiet and I will speak,come what may.
14. For what reason will I take my flesh in my teeth,put my life in jeopardy?
15. He will slay me; I’m without hope;I will surely prove my way to his face.
16. Also this will be my vindication,that a godless person won’t come before him.
17. Listen closely to my wordsso that my remarks will be in your ears.
18. Look, I have laid out my case;I know that I’m innocent.
19. Who would dare contend with me,for then I would be quiet and die.
20. Only don’t do two things to me,then I won’t hide from your face.
21. Remove your hand far from meand don’t terrify me with your anger.
22. Then call and I’ll answer,or I’ll speak and you can reply.
23. How many are my offenses and sins?Inform me about my rebellions and sins.
24. Why hide your face from meand consider me your enemy?
