Job 13:7-13 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

7. You should not speak for God by saying evil things.You cannot speak God’s truth by telling lies.

8. You should not unfairly choose his side against mine.You should not argue the case for God.

9. You will not do well if he examines you.You cannot fool God as you might fool men.

10. God would surely scold youif you unfairly took one person’s side.

11. His bright glory would scare you.You would be very much afraid of him.

12. Your wise sayings are worth no more than ashes.Your arguments are as weak as clay.

13. “Be quiet and let me speak.Then let things happen to me as they will.
