11 Will not His excellence make you afraid,and the dread of Him fall upon you?
12 Your reminders are parables made of ashes;your answers are answers made of clay.
13 “Hold your peace; leave me alone, that I may speak,and let come on me what may!
14 Why do I take my flesh in my teethand put my life in my hand?
15 Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him,but I will defend my own ways before Him.
16 He also will be my salvation,for a hypocrite could not come before Him.
17 Listen carefully to my speech,and to my declaration with your ears.
