Job 13:13

The Scriptures 1998

Be silent before me, and let me speak, and let whatever come upon me!

See the chapter Copy

I also, I do not hold my mouth, I speak in the distress of my spirit, I complain in the bitterness of my being.

Bear with me and let me speak, and after I have spoken, keep mocking.

If you would only be silent, then it would be your wisdom!

“My being has grown weary of life. I let loose my complaint, I speak in the bitterness of my being.

Your weighty sayings are proverbs of ashes, your shields are shields of clay.
