Job Proclaims God's Righteous Judgments
|
|
|
|
# Chapter 23
|
|
1. Then Job answered and said:
|
|
|
|
2. "Even today my complaint is bitter;
|
|
My hand is listless because of my groaning.
|
|
|
|
3. Oh, that I knew where I might find Him,
|
|
That I might come to His seat!
|
|
|
|
4. I would present my case before Him,
|
|
And fill my mouth with arguments.
|
|
|
|
5. I would know the words which He would answer me,
|
|
And understand what He would say to me.
|
|
|
|
6. Would He contend with me in His great power?
|
|
No! But He would take note of me.
|
|
|
|
7. There the upright could reason with Him,
|
|
And I would be delivered forever from my Judge.
|
|
|
|
8. "Look, I go forward, but He is not there,
|
|
And backward, but I cannot perceive Him;
|
|
|
|
9. When He works on the left hand, I cannot behold Him;
|
|
When He turns to the right hand, I cannot see Him.
|
|
|
|
10. But He knows the way that I take;
|
|
When He has tested me, I shall come forth as gold.
|
|
|
|
11. My foot has held fast to His steps;
|
|
I have kept His way and not turned aside.
|
|
|
|
12. I have not departed from the commandment of His lips;
|
|
I have treasured the words of His mouth
|
|
More than my necessary food.
|
|
|
|
13. "But He is unique, and who can make Him change?
|
|
And whatever His soul desires, that He does.
|
|
|
|
14. For He performs what is appointed for me,
|
|
And many such things are with Him.
|
|
|
|
15. Therefore I am terrified at His presence;
|
|
When I consider this, I am afraid of Him.
|
|
|
|
16. For God made my heart weak,
|
|
And the Almighty terrifies me;
|
|
|
|
17. Because I was not cut off from the presence of darkness,
|
|
And He did not hide deep darkness from my face.
