Job 13 — Context

Truly, he will put an end to me; I have no hope; but I will not give way in argument before him;

And that will be my salvation, for an evil-doer would not come before him,

Give ear with care to my words, and keep what I say in your minds.

See now, I have put my cause in order, and I am certain that I will be seen to be right.

Is any one able to take up the argument against me? If so, I would keep quiet and give up my breath.

Only two things do not do to me, then I will come before your face:

Take your hand far away from me; and let me not be overcome by fear of you.
