13 “Refrain from talking with me so that I may speak;then let come to me what may.
14 Why do I put myself in peril,and take my life in my hands?
15 Even if he slays me, I will hope in him;I will surely defend my ways to his face!
16 Moreover, this will become my deliverance,for no godless person would come before him.
17 Listen carefully to my words;let your ears be attentive to my explanation.
18 See now, I have prepared my case;I know that I am right.
19 Who will contend with me?If anyone can, I will be silent and die.
