MSG
3I'm taking my case straight to God Almighty;I've had it with you—I'm going directly to God.

MSG
4You graffiti my life with lies.You're a bunch of pompous quacks!

8Will you show partiality toward him? Will you plead the case for God?
MSG
8Why do you always take his side?Do you think he needs a lawyer to defend himself?
ESV

MSG
9How would you fare if you were in the dock?Your lies might convince a jury—but would theyconvince God?

ESV
11Will not his majesty terrify you, and the dread of him fall upon you?
MSG
11Doesn't his splendor put you in awe?Aren't you afraid to speak cheap lies before him?

MSG
12Your wise sayings are knickknack wisdom,good for nothing but gathering dust.
ESV
13“Let me have silence, and I will speak, and let come on me what may.
MSG
13"So hold your tongue while I have my say,then I'll take whatever I have coming to me.
ESV
14Why should I take my flesh in my teeth and put my life in my hand?
MSG
14Why do I go out on a limb like thisand take my life in my hands?
ESV
15Though he slay me, I will hope in him; yet I will argue my ways to his face.

ESV
16This will be my salvation, that the godless shall not come before him.
MSG
16Just wait, this is going to work out for the best—my salvation!If I were guilt-stricken do you think I'd be doing this—laying myself on the line before God?

MSG
17You'd better pay attention to what I'm telling you,listen carefully with both ears.
ESV

MSG
18Now that I've laid out my defense,I'm sure that I'll be acquitted.
ESV
19Who is there who will contend with me? For then I would be silent and die.
MSG
19Can anyone prove charges against me?I've said my piece. I rest my case.
ESV
20Only grant me two things, then I will not hide myself from your face:
MSG
20"Please, God, I have two requests;grant them so I'll know I count with you:
ESV
21withdraw your hand far from me, and let not dread of you terrify me.
MSG
21First, lay off the afflictions;the terror is too much for me.
ESV
22Then call, and I will answer; or let me speak, and you reply to me.
MSG
22Second, address me directly so I can answer you,or let me speak and then you answer me.
ESV
23How many are my iniquities and my sins? Make me know my transgression and my sin.
MSG
23How many sins have been charged against me?Show me the list—how bad is it?
ESV
24Why do you hide your face and count me as your enemy?
MSG
24Why do you stay hidden and silent?Why treat me like I'm your enemy?
ESV
25Will you frighten a driven leaf and pursue dry chaff?
MSG
25Why kick me around like an old tin can?Why beat a dead horse?
ESV
26For you write bitter things against me and make me inherit the iniquities of my youth.
MSG
26You compile a long list of mean things about me,even hold me accountable for the sins of my youth.
ESV
27You put my feet in the stocks and watch all my paths; you set a limit for the soles of my feet.
MSG
27You hobble me so I can't move about.You watch every move I make,and brand me as a dangerous character.
ESV
28Man wastes away like a rotten thing, like a garment that is moth-eaten.
MSG
28"Like something rotten, human life fast decomposes,like a moth-eaten shirt or a mildewed blouse.
