I will say to God, Do not condemn me; make me know why You contend with me.
And do not enter into judgment with Your servant, for in Your sight no one living is just.
I have been condemned; why then should I labor in vain?
There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
But You, Lord Jehovah, deal kindly with me for Your name's sake; because Your mercy is good, deliver me.
Do not remember the sins of my youth, or my rebellings; according to Your mercy remember me for Your goodness' sake, O Jehovah.
If he will argue with Him, he cannot answer Him one of a thousand.
Shall a reprover contend with the Almighty? He who reproves God, let him answer it.
I have sinned. What shall I do to You, O Watcher of men? Why have You set me as a target for You, so that I am a burden to myself?
How many are my iniquities and sins? Make known my transgressions and my sin.
As for me, is my complaint to man? And why should my spirit not be troubled?
Why do you fight against Him? For He does not give account for any of His matters.
Hear, O Jehovah, when I cry with my voice; and have mercy on me, and answer me.
