OEB JOB Chapter 23

JOB 23 ©

23The Job answered and said:

2This day also my plaint must be bitter;

His hand on my groaning lies heavy.

3O that I knew where to find Him,

That I might come unto His throne,

4And set forth my cause before Him,

With arguments filling my mouth!

5I would know with what words He would answer,

And understand what He would say to me.

6Would He use His great power in the contest?

Nay, He would give heed unto me.

7There the upright might argue with Him,

And my right I should rescue for ever.

8Behold, I go east, but He is not:

And west, but I cannot perceive Him.

9Seek on the north, but in vain:

I turn south, but I cannot behold Him.

10But He knoweth the way that is mine;

I would come forth as gold, should He try me.

11My foot hath held fast to His steps,

And His way have I kept without swerving.

12Not once have I strayed from His precepts;

His words have I hid in my bosom.

13But when He hath resolved – who can turn Him?

And what He desireth, He doeth.

15For this cause His presence confounds me,

The thought of Him fills me with terror;

16For God hath weakened my heart,

And Almighty confounded me clean.

17I am utterly lost in the darkness,

And gloom enwrappeth my face.
