Job 23

23 Then Eyob replied: 2 

“But my complaint is bit- 2 ter still;

under his heavy hand I lie and moan.

Oh that I knew where to find 3 him,

how to reach his very throne,

and there lay my case before him,

arguing it out to the full!

Fain would I learn what his reply would be,

and understand what he would say to me.

Would he confront me with his 6 almighty power?

No, he would listen to me;

there I might argue with him as one innocent,

and have my judge acquit me for all time.

But I go forward, and he is not there;

backward, and yet I cannot behold him;

I seek him on my left, in vain;

when I turn to the right, I cannot see him.

Yet he knows how I live;

when he tests me, I shall prove sterling gold,

I have kept closely to his footsteps,

never swerving from his path;

I never stray from his commands,

I treasure up his orders.

But who can make him change his mind?

He does whatever he may choose!

So I am cowed before him;

the thought of him dismays me.

For God makes my heart faint,

the Almighty cows me;

I am appalled at his dark mystery,

and its black shadow has bewildered me.
