15 Behold, he will kill me. I have no hope. Nevertheless, I will maintain my ways before him.
16 This also shall be my salvation, that a godless man shall not come before him.
17 Hear diligently my speech. Let my declaration be in your ears.
18 See now, I have set my cause in order. I know that I am righteous.
19 Who is he who will contend with me? For then would I hold my peace and give up the spirit.
20 “Only don’t do two things to me; then I will not hide myself from your face:
21 withdraw your hand far from me; and don’t let your terror make me afraid.
