Job 13:23

“Only don’t do two things to me,

then I will not hide myself from your face:

withdraw your hand far from me,

and don’t let your terror make me afraid.

Then call, and I will answer,

or let me speak, and you answer me.

Why do you hide your face,

and consider me your enemy?

Will you harass a driven leaf?

Will you pursue the dry stubble?

For you write bitter things against me,

and make me inherit the iniquities of my youth.
