Job 13:23
Compare all
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?

Job 13:23

How many are mine iniquities - Job being permitted to begin first, enters immediately upon the subject; and as it was a fact that he was grievously afflicted, and this his friends asserted was in consequence of grievous iniquities, he first desires to have them specified. What are the specific charges in this indictment? To say I must be a sinner to be thus afflicted, is saying nothing; tell me what are the sins, and show me the proofs.
