Job 23

23 And Job answered and said,

2 “Even today my complaint is bitter;

my hand is heavy upon my groaning.

3 Who will give, that I knew and I would find him?

I would come to his place!

4 I would set forth my case to his face,

and I would fill my mouth with arguments.

5 I would know the words he would answer me,

and I would perceive what he would say to me.

6 Would he argue against me in the greatness of power?

No, he would only set upon me.

7 There the upright is arguing with him,

and I would escape forever the one judging me.

8 Behold, I go to the east, but he is not there,

and to the west, but I do not perceive him;

9 in his working in the north, I do not behold, him;

he turns to the south, but I do not see, him.

10 Nevertheless, he knows the way, that is with me;

he has tested me, I have come out like gold.

11 My foot has held onto his step;

I have kept, to his way and I have not turned aside.

12 I have not departed from the commandment of his lips;

I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my portion.

13 But he, is of one, and who will turn him back?

For his soul desires, and he does.

14 For he will carry out my decree,

and many like these, are with him.

15 Therefore, I am terrified from his face;

I consider, and I am afraid of him.

16 For God has softened my heart,

and the Almighty has terrified me.

17 For I was not cut off from the face of the darkness,

and from my face gloom covers.
