30. If I wash myself with snow and cleanse my hands with lye,
31. Yet You will plunge me into the ditch, and my own clothes will abhor me [and refuse to cover so foul a body].
32. For [God] is not a [mere] man, as I am, that I should answer Him, that we should come together in court.
33. There is no umpire between us, who might lay his hand upon us both, [would that there were!] [I Tim. 2:5.]
34. That He might take His rod away from [threatening] me, and that the fear of Him might not terrify me.
35. [Then] would I speak and not fear Him, but I am not so in myself [to make me afraid, were only a fair trial given me].
