Job 23




jub@Job:23:1 @ Then Job answered and said,

jub@Job:23:2 @ Today I will also speak with bitterness; my stroke is heavier than my groaning.

jub@Job:23:3 @ Oh, that I knew where I might find him! [That] I might come [even] to his seat!

jub@Job:23:4 @ I would order judgment before him and fill my mouth with arguments.

jub@Job:23:5 @ I would know the words [which] he would answer me and understand what he would say unto me.

jub@Job:23:6 @ Will he plead against me with [his] great power? No, but rather he would put it in me.

jub@Job:23:7 @ There the righteous might dispute with him; and should I escape for ever from the one who condemns me.

jub@Job:23:8 @ Behold, I shall go to the east and not find him; and to the west, but I cannot perceive him;

jub@Job:23:9 @ if he is working to the north, I shall not see him; to the south, he hides himself, that I shall not see [him].

jub@Job:23:10 @ But he has known the way that I take; he has tried me, and I have come forth as gold.

jub@Job:23:11 @ My feet have held to his steps, I have kept his way, and have not departed.

jub@Job:23:12 @ Neither have I separated myself from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary [food].

jub@Job:23:13 @ But if he determines something, who can turn him? His soul desired [it], and he did [it].

jub@Job:23:14 @ Therefore, he will finish that which is necessary for me; and [there are] many such things in him.

jub@Job:23:15 @ Therefore, I shall fear before his face; I shall consider, and I shall fear him.

jub@Job:23:16 @ For God has made my heart tender, and the Almighty has frightened me.

jub@Job:23:17 @ Why was I not cut off before the darkness, [neither] has he covered my face with the darkness.:
