Job 13:20 - John Wesley's Notes

Job 13:20

Compare all

18 See now, I have prepared my case,
I know that I shall be ^avindicated.

19 ^aWho is he who will contend with me?
If now I hold my tongue, I perish.

Job’s Despondent Prayer

20 “Only^a two things do not do to me,
Then I will not hide myself from You:

21 ^aWithdraw Your hand far from me,
And let not the dread of You make me afraid.

22 Then call, and I will ^aanswer;
Or let me speak, then You respond to me.

23 How many are my iniquities and sins?
Make me know my transgression and my sin.

24 ^aWhy do You hide Your face,
And ^bregard me as Your enemy?

25 ^aWill You frighten a leaf driven to and fro?
And will You pursue dry stubble?

26 For You write bitter things against me,
And ^amake me inherit the iniquities of my youth.

27 ^aYou¹ put my feet in the stocks,
And watch closely all my paths.
You set a limit for the² soles of my feet.

28 “Man¹ decays like a rotten thing,
Like a garment that is moth-eaten.
