@ Then
Job
answered
and
said
,
strkjv@Job:23:2
@ Even to
day
is my
complaint
bitter
: my
stroke
is
heavier
than my
groaning
.
strkjv@Job:23:3
@ Oh
that
I
knew
where I might
find
him! that I might
come
even to his
seat
!
strkjv@Job:23:4
@ I would
order
my
cause
before
him, and
fill
my
mouth
with
arguments
.
strkjv@Job:23:5
@ I would
know
the
words
which he would
answer
me, and
understand
what he would
say
unto me.
strkjv@Job:23:6
@ Will he
plead
against
me with his
great
power
? No; but he would
put
strength in me.
strkjv@Job:23:7
@ There the
righteous
might
dispute
with him; so should I be
delivered
for
ever
from my
judge
.
strkjv@Job:23:8
@ Behold, I
go
forward
, but he is not there; and
backward
, but I cannot
perceive
him:
strkjv@Job:23:9
@ On the left
hand
s@, where he doth
work
, but I cannot
behold
him: he
hideth
himself on the right
hand
, that I cannot
see
him:
strkjv@Job:23:10
@ But he
knoweth
the
way
that I
take
: when he hath
tried
me, I shall come
forth
as
gold
.
strkjv@Job:23:11
@ My
foot
hath
held
his
steps
, his
way
have I
kept
, and not
declined
.
strkjv@Job:23:12
@ Neither have I gone
back
from the
commandment
of his
lips
; I have
esteemed
the
words
of his
mouth
more than my
necessary
food.
strkjv@Job:23:13
@ But he is in
one
mind, and who can
turn
him? and what his
soul
desireth
, even that he
doeth
.
strkjv@Job:23:14
@ For he
performeth
the thing that is
appointed
for me: and
many
such
things are with him.
strkjv@Job:23:15
@ Therefore am I
troubled
at his
presence
: when I
consider
, I am
afraid
of him.
strkjv@Job:23:16
@ For
God
maketh my
heart
soft
, and the
Almighty
troubleth
me:
strkjv@Job:23:17
@ Because I was not cut
off
before
the
darkness
, neither hath he
covered
the
darkness
from my
face
.
