Jesus Is LORD

ASV Job

Chapter 23

23:1 Then Job answered and said,
23:2 Even to-day is my complaint rebellious:
My stroke is heavier than my groaning.
23:3 Oh that I knew where I might find him!
That I might come even to his seat!
23:4 I would set my cause in order before him,
And fill my mouth with arguments.
23:5 I would know the words which he would answer me,
And understand what he would say unto me.
23:6 Would he contend with me in the greatness of his power?
Nay; but he would give heed unto me.
23:7 There the upright might reason with him;
So should I be delivered for ever from my judge.
23:8 Behold, I go forward, but he is not there;
And backward, but I cannot perceive him;
23:9 On the left hand, when he doth work, but I cannot behold him;
He hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him.
23:10 But he knoweth the way that I take;
When he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.
23:11 My foot hath held fast to his steps;
His way have I kept, and turned not aside.
23:12 I have not gone back from the commandment of his lips;
I have treasured up the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.
23:13 But he is in one mind, and who can turn him?
And what his soul desireth, even that he doeth.
23:14 For he performeth that which is appointed for me:
And many such things are with him.
23:15 Therefore am I terrified at his presence;
When I consider, I am afraid of him.
23:16 For God hath made my heart faint,
And the Almighty hath terrified me;
23:17 Because I was not cut off before the darkness,
Neither did he cover the thick darkness from my face.
