kjv@Job:23:1 @ Then Job answered and said,
kjv@Job:23:2 @ Even to day is my complaint bitter: my stroke is heavier than my groaning.
kjv@Job:23:3 @ Oh that I knew where I might find him! that I might come even to his seat!
kjv@Job:23:4 @ I would order my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments.
kjv@Job:23:5 @ I would know the words which he would answer me, and understand what he would say unto me.
kjv@Job:23:6 @ Will he plead against me with his great power? No; but he would put strength in me.
kjv@Job:23:7 @ There the righteous might dispute with him; so should I be delivered for ever from my judge.
kjv@Job:23:8 @ Behold, I go forward, but he is not there; and backward, but I cannot perceive him:
kjv@Job:23:9 @ On the left hand, where he doth work, but I cannot behold him: he hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him:
kjv@Job:23:10 @ But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.
kjv@Job:23:11 @ My foot hath held his steps, his way have I kept, and not declined.
kjv@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.
kjv@Job:23:13 @ But he is in one mind, and who can turn him? and what his soul desireth, even that he doeth.
kjv@Job:23:14 @ For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with him.
kjv@Job:23:15 @ Therefore am I troubled at his presence: when I consider, I am afraid of him.
kjv@Job:23:16 @ For God maketh my heart soft, and the Almighty troubleth me:
kjv@Job:23:17 @ Because I was not cut off before the darkness, neither hath he covered the darkness from my face.
