Job 23
1
Then Job answered and said,
2
Even to-day is my complaint rebellious: My stroke is heavier than my groaning.
3
Oh that I knew where I might find him! That I might come even to his seat!
4
I would set my cause in order before him, And fill my mouth with arguments.
5
I would know the words which he would answer me, And understand what he would say unto me.
6
Would he contend with me in the greatness of his power? Nay but he would give heed unto me.
7
There the upright might reason with him So should I be delivered for ever from my judge.
8
Behold, I go forward, but he is not [there] And backward, but I cannot perceive him
9
On the left hand, when he doth work, but I cannot behold him He hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him.
10
But he knoweth the way that I take When he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.
11
My foot hath held fast to his steps His way have I kept, and turned not aside.
12
I have not gone back from the commandment of his lips I have treasured up the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.
13
But he is in one [mind], and who can turn him? And what his soul desireth, even that he doeth.
14
For he performeth that which is appointed for me: And many such things are with him.
15
Therefore am I terrified at his presence When I consider, I am afraid of him.
16
For God hath made my heart faint, And the Almighty hath terrified me
17
Because I was not cut off before the darkness, Neither did he cover the thick darkness from my face.
