Job 13:15 Though he slay me, YET I WILL TRUST IN HIM: but I will maintain mine own ways before him."
Masoretic Text
Yet the American Standard Version says: "Behold, he will slay me; I HAVE NO HOPE: Nevertheless I will maintain my ways before him." Amazing! It says the exact opposite!
The Wycliffe 1395, the Geneva Bible 1599, Bishops's 1568, NKJV, NASB, NIV, Holman Standard, Message, TNIV, NET, Bible in Basic English, Darby, Douay 1950, Lamsa's 1936 translation of the Syriac, the ESV 2004, Spanish Reina Valera 1909, 1960, Las Sagradas Escrituras 1569, Jewish translations of 1917, 1936, Judaica Press Tanach, and the Modern Greek translation of the Old Testament, read like the KJV.
However the Revised Version 1881, ASV 1901, RSV 1952, and the NRSV 1989 say: "SEE, HE WILL KILL ME; I HAVE NO HOPE." - the opposite meaning!
RSV 1952 - "Behold, he will slay me; I have no hope..."
The fictitious LXX further confuses the issue with: "Though the Mighty One should lay hand upon me, FORASMUCH AS HE HAS BEGUN, verily I will speak, and plead before him."
What about modern Textus Receptus/Masoretic Text versions? Young's "literal" says: "Lo, He doth slay me -- I wait not!" and Green's goes along with this, saying: "Behold, He will cut me off; I WILL NOT WAIT."
Job 13:15 (NIV) "Though he slay me, yet will I HOPE IN HIM; I will surely* defend my ways to his face."
The NIV footnote:
- Footnote: Or He will surely slay me; I HAVE NO HOPE-- / yet I will
