Job 13:16

¹⁴ Why do I put myself at risk and take my life in my own hands?

¹⁵ Though He slay me, I will hope in Him. I will still defend my ways to His face.

Moreover, this will be my salvation, for no godless man can appear before Him.

¹⁷ Listen carefully to my words; let my declaration ring in your ears.

¹⁸ Behold, now that I have prepared my case, I know that I will be vindicated.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
