Bible verse
Why do You hide Your face and consider me as Your enemy?
Job 13:24 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 13.
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.
22 Then call me, and I will answer, or let me speak, and You can reply.
23 How many are my iniquities and sins? Reveal to me my transgression and sin.
24 Why do You hide Your face and consider me as Your enemy?
25 Would You frighten a windblown leaf? Would You chase after dry chaff?
26 For You record bitter accusations against me and bequeath to me the iniquities of my youth.
27 You put my feet in the stocks and stand watch over all my paths; You set a limit for the soles of my feet.
28 So man wastes away like something rotten, like a moth-eaten garment.
