If God would kill me, I would have no hope ⌞left⌟. Nevertheless, I will defend my behavior to his face.
You know I’m not guilty, but there is no one to rescue me from your hands.
I have prepared my case. I know that I will be declared righteous.
However, I want to speak to the Almighty, and I wish to argue my case in front of God.
although my hands have done nothing violent, and my prayer is sincere.
But my witness will plead for a human in front of God. The Son of Man will plead for his friend!
⌞I can’t find him⌟ because he knows the road I take. When he tests me, I’ll come out as pure as gold.
It’s unthinkable for me to admit that you are right. Until I breathe my last breath, I will never give up my claim of integrity.
“Will the person who finds fault with the Almighty correct him? Will the person who argues with God answer him?”
“Would you undo my justice? Would you condemn me so that you can be righteous?
My days go swifter than a weaver’s shuttle. They are spent without hope.
Even though I walk through the dark valley of death, because you are with me, I fear no harm. Your rod and your staff give me courage.
A wicked person is thrown down by his own wrongdoing, but even in his death a righteous person has a refuge.
From inside the fish Jonah prayed to the Lord his God.
even then, I will be happy with the Lord. I will truly find joy in God, who saves me.
Whenever our conscience condemns us, we will be reassured that God is greater than our conscience and knows everything.
