Job 13:20-28
20“Only two things I ask that You do not do to me, Then I will not hide from Your face:211Remove Your 2hand from me, And may the dread of You not terrify me.22Then call and 3I will answer; Or let me speak, then reply to me.234How many are my guilty deeds and sins? Make known to me my wrongdoing and my sin.24Why do You 5hide Your face And consider me 6Your enemy?25Will You scare away a 7scattered leaf? Or will You pursue the dry 8chaff?26For You write 9bitter things against me And 10make me inherit the guilty deeds of my youth.27You 11put my feet in the stocks And watch all my paths; You 12set a limit for the soles of my feet,28While 13I am decaying like a 14rotten thing, Like a garment that is moth-eaten.
