nsb - Job:23

nsb@Job:23:1 @ JOB REPLIED:

nsb@Job:23:2 @ »Even today my complaint is bitter rebellion. Gods hand is heavy despite my groaning.

nsb@Job:23:3 @ »Oh that I knew where I might find him that I might come to his seat!

nsb@Job:23:4 @ »I would present my case before him and fill my mouth with arguments.

nsb@Job:23:5 @ »I would learn what he would answer and perceive what he would say to me.

nsb@Job:23:6 @ »Would He contend with me using his great power? No, surely He would pay attention to me.

nsb@Job:23:7 @ »There the upright would reason with him. I would be delivered forever from my Judge.

nsb@Job:23:8 @ »Behold, I go forward but He is not there. I go backward, but I cannot perceive him.

nsb@Job:23:9 @ »He acts on the left and I cannot behold. He turns on the right and I cannot see him.

nsb@Job:23:10 @ »But He knows the way I walk. He has tried me. I shall come forth as gold.

nsb@Job:23:11 @ »My foot has held fast to his path. I have kept his way and not turned aside.

nsb@Job:23:12 @ »I have not departed from the command of his lips. I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

nsb@Job:23:13 @ »But he is unchangeable and who can turn him? He does what he wants to do.

nsb@Job:23:14 @ »He performs what is appointed for me. He is mindful of many such matters.

nsb@Job:23:15 @ »Therefore, I would be dismayed at his presence. I stand in awe of him.

nsb@Job:23:16 @ »God has made my heart faint. The Almighty has dismayed me.

nsb@Job:23:17 @ »But I am not silenced by the darkness, Nor deep gloom that covers me.
