Job 13:13–14

13 “Keep silent and let me speak;

then let come to me what may.

14 Why do I put myself in jeopardy

and take my life in my hands?

13 Hold your peace, let me alone, that I may speak,

And let come on me what will.

14 Wherefore do I take my flesh in my teeth,

And put my life in mine hand?

13 “Be silent now and leave me alone.

Let me speak, and I will face the consequences.

14 Why should I put myself in mortal danger

and take my life in my own hands?

13 “Hold your peace with me, and let me speak,

Then let come on me what may!

14 Why do I take my flesh in my teeth,

And put my life in my hands?

13 “Be quiet and let me speak.

Let things happen to me as they will.

14 Why should I put myself in danger

and take my life in my own hands?

13 Hold your peace, let me alone, that I may speak;

And let come on me what will.

14 Wherefore should I take my flesh in my teeth,

And put my life in my hand?

13 Hold your peace from me, and I will speak, and let come on me what will! 14 Wherefore should I take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in my hand?

13 Be quiet, because I want to speak. 

Let whatever may happen to me ⸤happen⸥! 

14 I am biting off more than I can chew 

and taking my life in my own hands. 

13 Be quiet, and I will speak.

Let whatever comes happen to me.

14 Why do I put myself at risk

and take my life in my own hands?

13 “Let me have silence, and I will speak,

and let come on me what may.

14 I will take my flesh in my teeth

and put my life in my hand.

13 “Let me have silence, and I myself will speak,

and let come over me whatever may.

14 Why should I take my flesh in my teeth

and put my life in my hand?

13 “So be quiet and let me speak.

Then I won’t care what happens to me.

14 Why do I put myself in danger?

Why do I take my life in my hands?

13 “Be silent before me so that I may speak;

Then let come on me what may.

14 “Why should I take my flesh in my teeth

And put my life in my hands?
