Red-Letter King James Bible 1769 Edition (KJV)

Job 13

1 Job reproveth his friends of partiality. 14 He professeth his confidence in God, 20 and intreateth to know his own sins, and God's purpose in afflicting him.

 13:1 ¶ Lo, x2005 mine eye 5869 hath seen 7200 z8804 all x3605 [this], mine ear 241 hath heard 8085 z8804 and understood 995 z8799 it.

 13:2 What ye know, 1847 [the same] do I x589 know 3045 z8804 also: x1571 I x595 [am] not x3808 inferior 5307 z8802 unto x4480 you.

 13:3 Surely 199 I x589 would speak 1696 z8762 to x413 the Almighty, 7706 and I desire 2654 z8799 to reason 3198 z8687 with x413 God. 410

 13:4 But 199 ye x859 [are] forgers 2950 z8802 of lies, 8267 ye [are] all x3605 physicians 7495 z8802 of no value. 457

 13:5 O that y5414 z8799 x4130 ye would x5414 altogether y2790 z8687 hold your peace! 2790 z8686 and it should be x1961 your wisdom. 2451

 13:6 Hear 8085 z8798 now x4994 my reasoning, 8433 and hearken 7181 z8685 to the pleadings 7379 of my lips. 8193

 13:7 Will ye speak 1696 z8762 wickedly 5766 for God? 410 and talk 1696 z8762 deceitfully 7423 for him?

 13:8 Will ye accept 5375 z8799 his person? 6440 will ye contend 7378 z8799 for God? 410

 13:9 Is it good y2895 z8804 x2896 that x3588 he should search you out? 2713 z8799 x853 or x518 as one man 582 mocketh 2048 z8763 another, do ye [so] mock 2048 z8762 him?

 13:10 He will surely y3198 z8687 reprove 3198 z8686 you, if x518 ye do secretly 5643 accept 5375 z8799 persons. 6440

 13:11 Shall not x3808 his excellency 7613 make you afraid? 1204 z8762 and his dread 6343 fall 5307 z8799 upon x5921 you?

 13:12 Your remembrances 2146 [are] like 4912 unto ashes, 665 your bodies 1354 to bodies 1354 of clay. 2563

 13:13 Hold your peace, 2790 z8685 let me alone, x4480 that I x589 may speak, 1696 z8762 and let come 5674 z8799 on x5921 me what x4100 [will].

 13:14 Wherefore x5921 x4100 do I take 5375 z8799 my flesh 1320 in my teeth, 8127 and put 7760 z8799 my life 5315 in mine hand? 3709

 13:15 Though 2005 he slay 6991 z8799 me, yet will I trust 3176 z8762 in him: but x389 I will maintain 3198 z8686 mine own ways 1870 before 6440 x413 him.

 13:16 He x1931 also x1571 [shall be] my salvation: 3444 for x3588 an hypocrite 2611 shall not x3808 come 935 z8799 before 6440 him.

 13:17 Hear y8085 z8798 diligently 8085 z8800 my speech, 4405 and my declaration 262 with your ears. 241

 13:18 Behold x2009 now, x4994 I have ordered 6186 z8804 [my] cause; 4941 I know 3045 z8804 that x3588 I x589 shall be justified. 6663 z8799

 13:19 Who x4310 [is] he x1931 [that] will plead 7378 z8799 with x5978 me? for x3588 now, x6258 if I hold my tongue, 2790 z8686 I shall give up the ghost. 1478 z8799

 13:20 Only x389 do 6213 z8799 not x408 two 8147 [things] unto x5978 me: then x227 will I not x3808 hide y5641 z8735 myself x5641 from x4480 x6440 thee. y6440

 13:21 Withdraw 7368 z0 thine hand 3709 far y7368 z8685 from x4480 x5921 me: and let not x408 thy dread 367 make me afraid. 1204 z8762

 13:22 Then call 7121 z8798 thou, and I x595 will answer: 6030 z8799 or x176 let me speak, 1696 z8762 and answer 7725 z8685 thou me.

 13:23 How x4100 many [are] mine iniquities 5771 and sins? 2403 make me to know 3045 z8685 my transgression 6588 and my sin. 2403

 13:24 Wherefore x4100 hidest 5641 z8686 thou thy face, 6440 and holdest 2803 z8799 me for thine enemy? 341 z8802

 13:25 Wilt thou break 6206 z8799 a leaf 5929 driven to and fro? 5086 z8737 and wilt thou pursue 7291 z8799 the dry 3002 stubble? 7179

 13:26 For x3588 thou writest 3789 z8799 bitter things 4846 against x5921 me, and makest me to possess 3423 z8686 the iniquities 5771 of my youth. 5271

 13:27 Thou puttest 7760 z8799 my feet 7272 also in the stocks, 5465 and lookest narrowly 8104 z8799 unto all x3605 my paths; 734 thou settest a print 2707 z8691 upon x5921 the heels 8328 of my feet. 7272

 13:28 And he, x1931 as a rotten thing, 7538 consumeth, 1086 z8799 as a garment 899 that is moth 6211 eaten. 398 z8804
