STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCH	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 הֶן־כֹּל רָאֲתָה עֵינִי שָׁמְעָה אָזְנִי וַתָּבֶן לָהּ	1 Lo, mine eye hath seen all this, mine ear hath heard and understood it.
2 כְּדַעְתְּכֶם יָדַעְתִּי גַם־אָנִי לֹא־נֹפֵל אָנֹכִי מִכֶּם	2 What ye know, the same do I know also: I am not inferior unto you.
3 אוּלָם אֲנִי אֶל־שַׁדַּי אֲדַבֵּר וְהֹוכֵחַ אֶל־אֵל אֶחְפָּץ	3 Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God.
4 וְאוּלָם אַתֶּם טֹפְלֵי־שָׁקֶר רֹפְאֵי אֱלִל כֻּלְּכֶם	4 But ye are forgers of lies, ye are all physicians of no value.
5 מִי־יִתֵּן הַחֲרֵשׁ תַּחֲרִישׁוּן וּתְהִי לָכֶם לְחָכְמָה	5 O that ye would altogether hold your peace! and it should be your wisdom.
6 שִׁמְעוּ־נָא תֹוכַחְתִּי וְרִבֹות שְׂפָתַי הַקְשִׁיבוּ	6 Hear now my reasoning, and hearken to the pleadings of my lips.
7 הַלְאֵל תְּדַבְּרוּ עַוְלָה וְלֹו תְּדַבְּרוּ רְמִיָּה	7 Will ye speak wickedly for God? and talk deceitfully for him?
8 הֲפָנָיו תִּשָּׂאוּן אִם־לָאֵל תְּרִיבוּן	8 Will ye accept his person? will ye contend for God?
9 הֲטֹוב כִּי־יַחְקֹר אֶתְכֶם אִם־כְּהָתֵל בֶּאֱנֹושׁ תְּהָתֵלּוּ בֹו	9 Is it good that he should search you out? or as one man mocketh another, do ye so mock him?
10 הֹוכֵחַ יֹוכִיחַ אֶתְכֶם אִם־בַּסֵּתֶר פָּנִים תִּשָּׂאוּן	10 He will surely reprove you, if ye do secretly accept persons.
11 הֲלֹא אֵתֹו תְּבַעֵת אֶתְכֶם וּפַחְדֹּו יִפֹּל עֲלֵיכֶם	11 Shall not his excellency make you afraid? and his dread fall upon you?
12 זִכְרֹנֵיכֶם מִשְׁלֵי־אֵפֶר לְגַבֵּי־חֹמֶר גַּבֵּיכֶם	12 Your remembrances are like unto ashes, your bodies to bodies of clay.
13 הַחֲרִישׁוּ מִמֶּנִּי וַאֲדַבְּרָה־אָנִי וְיַעֲבֹר עָלַי מָה	13 Hold your peace, let me alone, that I may speak, and let come on me what will.
14 עַל־מָה ׀ אֶשָּׂא בְשָׂרִי בְשִׁנָּי וְנַפְשִׁי אָשִׂים בְּכַפִּי	14 Wherefore do I take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in mine hand?
15 הֵן יִקְטְלֵנִי [לֹא כ] (לֹו ק) אֲיַחֵל אַךְ־דְּרָכַי אֶל־פָּנָיו אֹוכִיחַ	15 Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.
16 גַּם־הוּא־לִי לִישׁוּעָה כִּי־לֹא לְפָנָיו חָנֵף יָבֹוא	16 He also shall be my salvation: for an hypocrite shall not come before him.
17 שִׁמְעוּ מֹועַ מִלָּתִי וְאַחֲוָתִי בְּאָזְנֵיכֶם	17 Hear diligently my speech, and my declaration with your ears.
18 הִנֵּה־נָא עָרַכְתִּי מִשְׁפָּט יָדַעְתִּי כִּי־אֲנִי אֶצְדָּק	18 Behold now, I have ordered my cause; I know that I shall be justified.
19 מִי־הוּא יָרִיב עִמָּדִי כִּי־עַתָּה אַחֲרִישׁ וְאֶגְוָע	19 Who is he that will plead with me? for now, if I hold my tongue, I shall give up the ghost.
20 אַךשְְׁ־תַּיִם אַל־תַּעַשׂ עִמָּדִי אָז מִפָּנֶיךָ לֹא אֶסָּתֵר	20 Only do not two things unto me: then will I not hide myself from thee.
21 כַּפְּךָ מֵעָלַי הַרְחַק וְאֵמָתְךָ אַל־תְּבַעֲתַנִּי	21 Withdraw thine hand far from me: and let not thy dread make me afraid.
22 וּקְרָא וְאָנֹכִי אֶעֱנֶה אֹו־אֲדַבֵּר וַהֲשִׁיבֵנִי	22 Then call thou, and I will answer: or let me speak, and answer thou me.
23 כַּמָּה לִי עֲוֹנֹות וְחַטָּאֹות פִּשְׁעִי וְחַטָּאתִי הֹדִיעֵנִי	23 How many are mine iniquities and sins? make me to know my transgression and my sin.
24 לָמָּה־פָנֶיךָ תַסְתִּיר וְתַחְשְׁבֵנִי לְאֹויֵב לָךְ	24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and holdest me for thine enemy?
25 הֶעָלֶה נִדָּף תַּעֲרֹוץ וְאֶת־קַשׁ יָבֵשׁ תִּרְדֹּף	25 Wilt thou break a leaf driven to and fro? and wilt thou pursue the dry stubble?
26 כִּי־תִכְתֹּב עָלַי מְרֹרֹות וְתֹורִישֵׁנִי עֲוֹנֹות נְעוּרָי	26 For thou writest bitter things against me, and makest me to possess the iniquities of my youth.
27 וְתָשֵׂם בַּסַּד ׀ רַגְלַי וְתִשְׁמֹור כָּל־אָרְחֹותָי עַל־שָׁרְשֵׁי רַגְלַי תִּתְחַקֶּה	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.
28 וְהוּא כְּרָקָב יִבְלֶה כְּבֶגֶד אֲכָלֹו עָשׁ	28 And he, as a rotten thing, consumeth, as a garment that is moth eaten.
