vw@Job:23:2 @ Even today my complaint is bitter; my hand is heavy over my groaning.
vw@Job:23:3 @ Oh, that I knew where I might find Him, that I might come to His place!
vw@Job:23:4 @ I would present my case before Him, and fill my mouth with arguments.
vw@Job:23:5 @ I would know the words which He would answer me, and understand what He would say to me.
vw@Job:23:6 @ Would He contend with me in His great power? No! But He would set me in place.
vw@Job:23:7 @ There the upright could reason with Him, and I would be delivered forever from my Judge.
vw@Job:23:8 @ Behold, I go forward, but He is not there, and backward, but I cannot perceive Him;
vw@Job:23:9 @ when He works on the left hand, I cannot see Him; when He turns to the right hand, I cannot perceive Him.
vw@Job:23:10 @ But He knows the way that I take; when He has tried me, I shall come forth as gold.
vw@Job:23:11 @ My foot has held fast to His steps; I have kept His way and not turned aside.
vw@Job:23:12 @ I have not departed from the Commandment of His lips; I have treasured the Words of His mouth more than my prescribed food.
vw@Job:23:13 @ But He is One, and who can turn Him back? And whatever His soul desires, that He does.
vw@Job:23:14 @ For He completes what is prescribed for me, and many such things are with Him.
vw@Job:23:15 @ Therefore I am terrified at His presence; when I consider this, I am in dread of Him.
vw@Job:23:16 @ For the Mighty God has made my heart weak, and the Almighty has terrified me.
vw@Job:23:17 @ But I have not been cut off by the face of darkness, and He has concealed the deep darkness from my face.
