Job 13:23-27
1599 Geneva Bible
23 How many are [a]mine iniquities and sins, show me my rebellion and my sin.
24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and takest me for thine enemy?
25 Wilt thou break a leaf driven to and fro? and wilt thou pursue the dry stubble?
26 For thou writest bitter things against me, and makest me to possess the [b]iniquities of my youth.
27 Thou puttest my feet also in the [c]stocks, and lookest narrowly unto all my paths, and makest the print thereof in the [d]heels of my feet.
