Job 13:17

Listen carefully to my words; let my declaration ring in your ears.

Job 13:17 · BSB

Job 13:17 in context

The verses around it, from Job 13.

13 Be silent, and I will speak. Then let come to me what may.

14 Why do I put myself at risk and take my life in my own hands?

15 Though He slay me, I will hope in Him. I will still defend my ways to His face.

16 Moreover, this will be my salvation, for no godless man can appear before Him.

17 Listen carefully to my words; let my declaration ring in your ears.

18 Behold, now that I have prepared my case, I know that I will be vindicated.

19 Can anyone indict me? If so, I will be silent and die.

20 Only grant these two things to me, so that I need not hide from You:

21 Withdraw Your hand from me, and do not let Your terror frighten me.
