New Testament

Job 13:11-18 New Living Translation (NLT)

11. Doesn’t his majesty terrify you?Doesn’t your fear of him overwhelm you?

12. Your platitudes are as valuable as ashes.Your defense is as fragile as a clay pot.

13. “Be silent now and leave me alone.Let me speak, and I will face the consequences.

14. Why should I put myself in mortal dangerand take my life in my own hands?

15. God might kill me, but I have no other hope.I am going to argue my case with him.

16. But this is what will save me—I am not godless.If I were, I could not stand before him.

17. “Listen closely to what I am about to say.Hear me out.

18. I have prepared my case;I will be proved innocent.
