Job 13 — Context

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.

Then at the sound of your voice I will give answer; or let me put forward my cause for you to give me an answer.

What is the number of my evil-doings and my sins? give me knowledge of them.

Why is your face veiled from me, as if I was numbered among your haters?

Will you be hard on a leaf in flight before the wind? will you make a dry stem go more quickly on its way?
