New Testament

Job 13:11-21 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

11. His bright glory would scare you.You would be very much afraid of him.

12. Your wise sayings are worth no more than ashes.Your arguments are as weak as clay.

13. “Be quiet and let me speak.Then let things happen to me as they will.

14. I will put myself in dangerand take my life in my own hands.

15. He will kill me. I have no hope.But I still will defend my ways to his face.

16. This might really save me,because a wicked man would not be brave enough to come before him.

17. Listen carefully to what I say.Let your ears hear what I say.

18. See now, I have prepared my case.I know I will be proved right.

19. No one can blame me for doing wrong.If someone can, I will be quiet and die.

20. “God, please just give me these two things.Then I will not hide from you.

21. Take your punishment away from me.And stop frightening me with your terrors.
