Job 13:13

English Standard Version 2016

“Let me have silence, and I will speak, and let come on me what may.

See the chapter Copy

“Therefore I will not restrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.

Bear with me, and I will speak, and after I have spoken, mock on.

Oh that you would keep silent, and it would be your wisdom!

“I loathe my life; I will give free utterance to my complaint; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.

Your maxims are proverbs of ashes; your defenses are defenses of clay.
