Nay; but he would give heed unto me.There the upright might reason with him; So should I be delivered for ever from my judge.

For then would I hold my peace and give up the ghost.Only do not two things unto me; Then will I not hide myself from thy face:Withdraw thy hand far from me; And let not thy terror make me afraid.Then call thou, and I will answer; Or let me speak, and answer thou me.How many are mine iniquities and sins? Make me to know my transgression and my sin.
