Job 13

KING JAMES BIBLE	VULGATA
1 Lo, mine eye hath seen all this, mine ear hath heard and understood it.	1 Ecce omnia hæc vidit oculus meus, et audivit auris mea, et intellexi singula.
2 What ye know, the same do I know also: I am not inferior unto you.	2 Secundum scientiam vestram et ego novi : nec inferior vestri sum.
3 Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God.	3 Sed tamen ad Omnipotentem loquar, et disputare cum Deo cupio :
4 But ye are forgers of lies, ye are all physicians of no value.	4 prius vos ostendens fabricatores mendacii, et cultores perversorum dogmatum.
5 O that ye would altogether hold your peace! and it should be your wisdom.	5 Atque utinam taceretis, ut putaremini esse sapientes.
6 Hear now my reasoning, and hearken to the pleadings of my lips.	6 Audite ergo correptionem meam, et judicium labiorum meorum attendite.
7 Will ye speak wickedly for God? and talk deceitfully for him?	7 Numquid Deus indiget vestro mendacio, ut pro illo loquamini dolos ?
8 Will ye accept his person? will ye contend for God?	8 numquid faciem ejus accipitis, et pro Deo judicare nitimini ?
9 Is it good that he should search you out? or as one man mocketh another, do ye so mock him?	9 aut placebit ei quem celare nihil potest ? aut decipietur, ut homo, vestris fraudulentiis ?
10 He will surely reprove you, if ye do secretly accept persons.	10 Ipse vos arguet, quoniam in abscondito faciem ejus accipitis.
11 Shall not his excellency make you afraid? and his dread fall upon you?	11 Statim ut se commoverit, turbabit vos, et terror ejus irruet super vos.
12 Your remembrances are like unto ashes, your bodies to bodies of clay.	12 Memoria vestra comparabitur cineri, et redigentur in lutum cervices vestræ.
13 Hold your peace, let me alone, that I may speak, and let come on me what will.	13 Tacete paulisper, ut loquar quodcumque mihi mens suggesserit.
14 Wherefore do I take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in mine hand?	14 Quare lacero carnes meas dentibus meis, et animam meam porto in manibus meis ?
15 Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.	15 Etiam si occiderit me, in ipso sperabo : verumtamen vias meas in conspectu ejus arguam.
16 He also shall be my salvation: for an hypocrite shall not come before him.	16 Et ipse erit salvator meus : non enim veniet in conspectu ejus omnis hypocrita.
17 Hear diligently my speech, and my declaration with your ears.	17 Audite sermonem meum, et ænigmata percipite auribus vestris.
18 Behold now, I have ordered my cause; I know that I shall be justified.	18 Si fuero judicatus, scio quod justus inveniar.
19 Who is he that will plead with me? for now, if I hold my tongue, I shall give up the ghost.	19 Quis est qui judicetur mecum ? veniat : quare tacens consumor ?
20 Only do not two things unto me: then will I not hide myself from thee.	20 Duo tantum ne facias mihi, et tunc a facie tua non abscondar :
21 Withdraw thine hand far from me: and let not thy dread make me afraid.	21 manum tuam longe fac a me, et formido tua non me terreat.
22 Then call thou, and I will answer: or let me speak, and answer thou me.	22 Voca me, et ego respondebo tibi : aut certe loquar, et tu responde mihi.
23 How many are mine iniquities and sins? make me to know my transgression and my sin.	23 Quantas habeo iniquitates et peccata ? scelera mea et delicta ostende mihi.
24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and holdest me for thine enemy?	24 Cur faciem tuam abscondis, et arbitraris me inimicum tuum ?
25 Wilt thou break a leaf driven to and fro? and wilt thou pursue the dry stubble?	25 Contra folium, quod vento rapitur, ostendis potentiam tuam, et stipulam siccam persequeris :
26 For thou writest bitter things against me, and makest me to possess the iniquities of my youth.	26 scribis enim contra me amaritudines, et consumere me vis peccatis adolescentiæ meæ.
27 Thou puttest my feet also in the stocks, and lookest narrowly unto all my paths; thou settest a print upon the heels of my feet.	27 Posuisti in nervo pedem meum, et observasti omnes semitas meas, et vestigia pedum meorum considerasti :
28 And he, as a rotten thing, consumeth, as a garment that is moth eaten.	28 qui quasi putredo consumendus sum, et quasi vestimentum quod comeditur a tinea.
