"Who is he that will contend with me? For then would I hold my peace and give up the ghost. "
— Job 13:19, American Standard Version
“Who is he that will plead with me? for now, if I hold my tongue, I shall give up the ghost.”
“Who is he who will contend with me? For then would I hold my peace and give up the spirit.”
“Who will contend with me? If anyone can, I will be silent and die.”
“Who is he that will plead against me? let him come: why am I consumed holding my peace?”
“Is any one able to take up the argument against me? If so, I would keep quiet and give up my breath.”
“Who is he that will plead with me? for now, if I hold my tongue, I shall give up the ghost.”
This also shall be my salvation, That a godless man shall not come before him.
Hear diligently my speech, And let my declaration be in your ears.
Behold now, I have set my cause in order; I know that I am righteous.
Who is he that will contend with me? For then would I hold my peace and give up the ghost.
Only do not two things unto me; Then will I not hide myself from thy face:
Withdraw thy hand far from me; And let not thy terror make me afraid.
Then call thou, and I will answer; Or let me speak, and answer thou me.
