13. Be silent! Let me alone that I may speak,no matter what happens to me.
14. I will carry my flesh between my teeth,and take my life in my hand.
15. Slay me though he might, I will wait for him;I will defend my conduct before him.
16. This shall be my salvation:no impious man can come into his presence.
17. Pay close attention to my speech,give my statement a hearing.
18. Behold, I have prepared my case,I know that I am in the right.
19. If anyone can make a case against me,then I shall be silent and expire.
20. Two things only do not use against me,then from your presence I need not hide:
21. Withdraw your hand far from me,do not let the terror of you frighten me.
22. Then call me, and I will respond;or let me speak first, and answer me.
