Job 13:17-23 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

17. Now listen to my words of explanation.

18. I am ready to state my case,because I know I am in the right.

19. Are you coming to accuse me, God?If you do, I am ready to be silent and die.

20. Let me ask for two things; agree to them,and I will not try to hide from you;

21. stop punishing me, and don't crush me with terror.

22. Speak first, O God, and I will answer.Or let me speak, and you answer me.

23. What are my sins? What wrongs have I done?What crimes am I charged with?
